Last week, Jason de Heras tore down the first boss fight in God of War. The Respawn Design Director is at it again with what is essentially a guide to some of the combat mechanics in the game. Jason earlier broke down the first boss fight in the game, summing it up as something of an ‘illusion of challenge’. Serving more as a tutorial than a real challenge, Jason pointed out that there was a very distinct pattern in the Daudi’s attack, especially the log stab, the second hit of which didn’t really land on Kratos if you blocked....

The Shakespeare Code The temptation to write historical figures into Doctor Who is understandably irresistible to the average scriptwriter. Moored down on Earth by budgetary constraints and needing an instant hook into a given historical period, it makes easy shorthand for viewers. When it works, it buys into the gallivanting rompy ethos of the ‘Who, like Queen Victoria in Tooth and Claw. When it doesn’t work, it really doesn’t. And that’s what happened this week....

Nuestra opinión rápida Un lugar especial Pruebas de tecnología italiana Sin pala El que nadie comprará Spin me up baby Lo mejor hasta el final Para recapitular Convertido en el modelo de mayor volumen de Maserati, el Ghibli es el coche más accesible de la compañía. Pero aunque tiene algunos defectos, en el sentido más italiano del término, es fácil pasarlos por alto cada vez que uno se sienta en el asiento del conductor o echa un vistazo al coche....

2017’s Horizon: Zero Dawn had everything going for it pre-release. A gorgeous looking open world, stunning visuals, a reputed developer (if you can ignore Killzone: Shadow Fall), the authority of being a Sony first-party game, and the standard weapon of that year, a bow. It was one of the earliest releases of 2017 and already looked like game of the year material. The character of Aloy was lovable, relatable, and players almost immediately accepted her as a worthy protagonist....

This RICK AND MORTY review contains spoilers. Rick and Morty Season 6 Episode 9 Continuing the trend from last week, this is another episode about something painfully dumb being used as a vehicle for character development. Last time, it was piss which helped Rick learn about selflessness and avoiding unnecessary conflict. This time, we’ve moved onto the only logical topic to cover after piss: cutting off dicks. And this concept of dick severance is the framing for a story in which Rick tries to be more supportive and nicer to Morty....

Riot Games was dragged on social media after announcing that the League of Legends European Championship (LEC), one of the most popular esports leagues in the world, would be sponsored by the planned Saudi Arabian megacity of Neom. The announcement ignited a firestorm on Twitter where fans pointed out that Saudi Arabia has a horrific track record when it comes to human rights. Soon after Riot stated the partnership, the company backtracked in a statement made by Alberto Guerrero, director of esports in the European, Middle East, and African regions....

Some wounds definitely take longer to heal, and Marvel fans are still grieving for Tony Stark two years after the conclusive events of Avengers: Endgame. On the movie’s anniversary, Robert Downey Jr. posted a tweet to fans with the hashtag “#LoveYouAll3000”, accompanied with a behind-the-scenes look at an alternate Soul World scene. Marvel’s Infinity Saga met its conclusion in 2019, bringing an emotional end to its 11-year run. RDJ’s character Tony Stark, a....

Since its debut fourteen years ago, Roblox has recently seen a massive surge in popularity that is not slowing down. After surpassing Minecraft’s monthly active user base last August, the creation game’s staff announced that it recently passed another astounding milestone. At last weekend’s sixth annual Roblox Developers Conference, developer Roblox Corporation talked about Roblox’s still-growing popularity. Revealing that the creative platform now has 150 million active users per month, Roblox founder and CEO David Baszucki also announced that Roblox creators could earn over $250 million this year....

With ComicCon@Home coming soon and the DC Fandome in August, fans are eagerly awaiting what Rocksteady has in store for their leaked Suicide Squad game. What kind of gameplay will it have? What kind of story will it have? But one question that everybody has been asking is who will be the playable characters? There are the obvious ones like Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang who have been mainstays of Task Force X for years but the team itself has had a revolving cast that could lead to many possibilities....

Indie publisher Modern Wolf has reassessed its promotional material for the upcoming title Rogue State Revolution following the insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6. This comes as a proactive measure to separate the association of Little Red Dog Games’ upcoming title as it approaches its release on Steam. The game is a real-time strategy title that works as a political-sim as the player has to manage the country in a way that both secures a foothold in global economics, as well as ensures the player retains their power in the young nation....

Despite Bethesda officially cancelling the project, a new rumor suggests that Prey 2 is in development at Arkane Austin and is set for a reveal at E3 2016. Announced in 2011, Prey 2 was set to follow bounty hunter Killian Samuels but following a troubled development process, Bethesda cancelled the game three years later. Bethesda explained that the game just wasn’t up to its “quality standard” and that although Prey 2 was a game that it believed in, the company “never felt that it got to where it needed to be....

In Rust, a player’s base location will often determine how well a wipe will play out. Gamers that choose an adequate location can survive through the entire wipe. However, failing to choose an advantageous location can result in a quick demise. Choosing the right location is not easy, and the best places to set up a base on a server depend on a multitude of factors. Rust’s influx of new gamers will have better luck in a more secluded location that is further from each map’s central monuments....

Survival PvP multiplayer games are a dime a dozen these days. However, the most popular contenders among them have remained the same over the years. One such title is Rust and it has been going strong ever since its early access days. One of the strongest assets it has is a relatively balanced and fair weapon mechanic and ranking. This has ensured that the players will always have fun and randomness in their games....

Game Rant takes a look at the scariest moments from the entire Gears of War franchise, digging up what we believe are the most memorable moments from Marcus Fenix. Gears Of War is known as an adrenaline-filled, testosterone-heavy action series, but both Epic Games and The Coalition have combined to deliver some true moments of horror as Marcus Fenix and company have fought the Locust horde over the years. We take a look back through all of the previous Gears of War titles to find what we think are some of the most scary moments in the entire franchise, and we expect they’re some moments veterans of the property haven’t forgotten, either....

If I could have any superpower in the world, it would be shapeshifting. I’d be staggered by (and immensely jealous of) any trans person who would not immediately say the same. Psychokinesis would be pretty high up the list too, although it’s always been a very ‘meh’ power in games - that’s why I’m so glad Scarlet Nexus makes it seem cool again. There are a million and one superpowers out there, from the obvious ones like super strength to the more niche abilities you see in Misfits and D-list X-Men, but of the headliners, most seem like more trouble than they’re worth....

Back in February, a certain Guardian article asked the question of just why some people are compelled to invert their Y-axis in video games while others are not. The question was aimed at several scientific experts that ultimately couldn’t reach a consensus. As usual, an experiment was in order. Ten months later and one such experiment is now underway at Brunel University London. Dr. Jennifer Corbett of the Visual Perception and Attention Lab and one of the original scientists asked in the February article decided to actually follow up and start running an experiment that can get to the bottom of what could be gaming’s greatest mystery....

A whole new take on one of the world’s most popular board games has launched on the app store, and celebrities are getting in on the fun for charity. Ever wonder what everybody did to entertain themselves before video games were around? Chances are a lot of them were playing board games in their free time. Some of those games have stood the test of time. The likes of Monopoly, Scrabble, Cluedo, and Yahtzee have been around for decades and are still played by millions of people around the world today....
