15 Play Fighting Games But even better than kicking digital demon butt is kicking your friends’ butts. Everyone knows that fighting games are great for multiplayer, but sometimes you just want to make serving up beatdowns look just a little cooler than mashing on buttons. Since the Guitar Hero peripheral is basically a fancy controller, you can remap the buttons and wail on your friends with it in a fighting game of your choice....
The first Kingdom Hearts launched in North America on September 17th, 2002 for the PlayStation 2, which marks 2017 as the series’ 15th anniversary. Since its debut, I’ve followed the games religiously and it remains one of my favorite franchises of all time, but that’s not to say I’m not frustrated with it either. Despite its fifteen-year history, there are only two numbered titles while the others are all spinoffs, filling in gaps with the story or creating new ones....
Fan theories are the backbone of the wonderful world of fandoms. Though engaging with the subject of one’s devotion directly can be riveting, sometimes spending one’s time surrounding oneself with everything non-canon, theory related, and wacky enough that is could never happen in the media itself can just be so much more rewarding. Sometimes the original media just isn’t enough to sate the thirsty minds of its viewers and sometimes the original source material leaves gaping holes that leave players and observers unsatisfied....
If Pirates of the Caribbean and One Piece taught us anything, it would be that humans must heed the call for treasure! Exhausted by a long and testing excavation, nothing raises the moral like discovering a mysterious puzzle deciphered by only a select few. Even though they are not a new phenomenon, Easter Eggs are almost a must in today’s entertainment industry. Developers love to sprinkle little nuggets of gold across their creations, while gamers will go to the ends of the Earth to uncover any morsel of content....
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel developer 2K Australia is to close, 2K has confirmed. The studio’s closure follows less than six months after the launch of The Pre-Sequel and just weeks after the arrival of current-gen port Borderlands: The Handsome Collection.

2K has announced Borderlands: The Handsome Collection Gentleman Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition, a re-release of March’s compilation heading to PS4 and Xbox One later this month that includes a remote-controlled Gentleman Claptrap. The pack appears to be identical to The Handsome Collection’s earlier Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition, but with a “dapper” Gentleman unit thrown in instead, and outfitted with a tuxedo, moustache, top hat and monocle. You can see what it looks like in the image below....
Players have quite the challenge when it comes to beating Remnant From The Ashes; the game is tough, there are lots of enemy types, and many of the weapons players may find may or may not be particularly useful when it comes to surviving this wretched nightmare world of The Root. Though everyone has their own playstyle and the best or worst weapon in the game is dependent on your build, these are arguably the best weapons you can have in your possession and the weapons that are best sold immediately....
The official release for Plants Vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville is almost a month away, but it’s already been discounted by 15% on both the PS4 and Xbox One. When George Fan presented the concept of Plants Vs. Zombies to PopCap Games, he had no idea just how successful of a franchise it would become. When Plants Vs. Zombies released on May 5, 2009, it received worldwide acclaim and became the fastest-selling PopCap game of all time, shipping 300,000 copies in just nine days after its release....
Some Activision Blizzard shareholders are attempting to prevent company CEO Bobby Kotick from receiving a substantial payment which they believe is unjustified. “Despite repeated low approval votes from shareholders, Activision Blizzard maintains multiple, overlapping opportunities for its CEO to earn outsize equity awards, even when performance-related vesting thresholds have not been met,” reads a filing from CtW Investment Group director Dieter Waiznegger. The filing encourages Activision shareholders to vote against an upcoming Management Say on Pay proposal....
MHR Sunbreak has been a welcome addition to the base pack. With new items, creatures, materials, and resources introduced, players have been trying to grab everything they can as soon as possible. This can prove to be hard to do when the items are not always freely available. Getting Aeonian coal in the game can be a difficult task considering how scarce it is in the game. Harvesting the same can be a task if you don’t know where to go....

“Six Seasonsssss And A Movie!”, a throw away line that became a prophecy, and then a rallying call for “Community” fans the world over, is finally about to come true. As a “Community” movie has officially been confirmed, over 7 years after the final episode of the show, “Emotional Consequences of Broadcast Television” aired.In the years since, fans have never lost faith in the beloved show, or that its creator, Dan Harmon, would find a way to make the dream of a “Community” movie, a reality, especially given the success that he has seen in the years since the finale aired, with “Rick and Morty” which he co-created with Justin Roiland....
As of late it has become a popular trend for games to include Zombies as a way to spice up the gameplay, but then there are those games that base the entirety of their experience on fighting off the undead.

Most, perhaps even a strong majority, are just happy to have a new Pokémon game to play. And then there’s another camp angrily tweeting #GameFreakLied and denouncing Sword & Shield as the end of all things Pokémon....
When it comes to music and dancing, there simply is nobody like Michael Jackson. So with the recent peripheral technology made possible with the PlayStation Move and Microsoft Kinect bringing players’ entire bodies into the experience, it was only a matter of time before a developer brought the legendary performer into the motion gaming age. Ubisoft is attempting to establish themselves as Kinect experts by doing just that with Michael Jackson: The Experience, but do they manage to pull of a game that matches the polished and one-of-a-kind performances of the King of Pop, or is the game little more than a fan service?...
The N64 console is the third home console from Nintendo that arrived in 1996 and discontinued to the GameCube in 2002. This console holds many games that have impacted Nintendo’s franchises and introduced a strong library for us gamers to remember by even after over twenty years. Mario, Zelda, and Pokémon are the game series that have very strong titles fans will recall. They honestly would not have made a bigger impact if it weren’t for their games on the Nintendo 64....
Marketing is incredibly important in modern times for almost every product or service that is being offered to the public. Video games are no exception to this golden rule — if anything, the sheer number of video games being released on a regular basis mandates the need for upcoming releases to receive as much attention as possible… something that is only possible through novel video game marketing practices. However, in a bid to generate as much hype as possible, some video game companies end up using scummy marketing tactics in a bid to attract as much attention as possible, at the cost of their integrity....
The animation in the Pokémon anime can vary greatly from season to season. And while it’s typically awesome, few things are as grating to fans as how lame they made some really good moves look, while some weaker moves got awesome animation. The Pokémon anime has been known for its showy battles, while many in the games strive for the strongest 1 hit-KO moves. Many of these moves were a lot less impressive in their animation, while others got plainer showcases but are still sleeper hits....
