Many players who are caught cheating often find themselves facing a ban, but Rockstar Games decided to go with another route of discipline. The company recently opted to completely reset the accounts of several GTA Online players who were caught cheating, forcing them to restart the game from square one. The players had been exploiting a glitch related to GTA’s property trade-in system, illegitimately making themselves millions of dollars. Instead of banning them from the game, Rockstar did something even worse: the company deleted all of their cars, guns, clothing, properties, businesses, and money....

When Rockstar Games revealed that the multiplayer in Max Payne 3 would carry some narrative elements, it left fans scratching their heads. Although cooperative play tends to follow a certain storyline, a competitive multiplayer element’s experience is usually determined by the strength of each team, but that isn’t the case with Max Payne 3. Instead of running through a cycle of game modes, or allowing players to choose, Rockstar is letting a narrative run through the multiplayer experience, one that is influenced by the scenario that preceded it....

How do you follow up on the most critically acclaimed Batman game of all time? Turns out developer Rocksteady Studios isn’t just bringing the Caped Crusader back, they’re sending him back as well. There was minute speculation months ago that the developer would depart the Gotham universe altogether after teasing its next game as “exciting” and different" - some even anticipated a curious Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles deviation. Those rumors can take a rain check, though, as a new report positions Rocksteady at the helm of a Silver Age Batman prequel - with a league of familiar faces in toe....

According to a new rumor, there was a point when Rockstar was actively working on Bully 2. However, bigger projects resulted in it getting canceled. GTA 5 was released on PS3 and Xbox 360. Not only has it lasted throughout the generation that followed, but it has also arguably become even more popular over the course of the last half a decade. So much so that Rockstar has seen fit to release a next-gen version on PS5 and Xbox Series X in 2021....

With Resident Evil 3 Remake nearly out, fans of the series are preparing themselves for another survival-horror adventure. Yet, according to some reports, it seems that Capcom is preparing for its next repeat adventure, as it has been revealed that the company is allegedly working on another remake. The information about the potential remake comes from website Video Games Chronicle (VGC) in which it has reported that Resident Evil 3 Remake’s credits show former PlatinumGames CEO Tatsuya Minami as an important figure behind the game....

Little to nothing is known about From Software’s next project. First revealed during The Game Awards in late 2017, the project is currently known by the text shown during that debut trailer – Shadows Die Twice, which may or may not be its official title. More information may be less than a month away, however, as a source is claiming that Shadows Die Twice will have a “big showing” at E3....

This weekend saw the spread of a rumor that Niantic is working on a Harry Potter game in the same vein as Pokemon GO — but further investigation casts doubt on the source. Ever since the release of Pokemon GO last month, there’s been debate as to which other major franchises could benefit from a similar AR-based smartphone game. Many pointed to the witchcraft and wizardry of Harry Potter as a likely candidate for this kind of adaptation....

The Excavator Pit is one of the largest Monuments in Rust. Its towering Excavator and the surrounding quarry are found in the Desert Biome, peaceful on the outside (with some radiation) but with its interior guarded by fierce Scientists. Not recommended for fresh players (unless you are after some of the small loot crates dotted around outside), the Excavator is noisy, popular, and often a target for players on the hunt for extra resources....

Developer Gun Media releases fly-through footage of Camp Crystal Lake as it will appear in Friday the 13th: The Game, assuming the game is successfully funded.

The game is looking to receive funding through Kickstarter, and with only eight days to go for the funding period, the developers at Gun Media have released fly-through footage of how the iconic Camp Crystal Lake will be represented....

Lara Croft has proven herself time and again as a formidable heroine, and her 2013 reboot sparked a new flame among fans old and new. Now, Shadow of the Tomb Raider is in our midst, and Lara’s story continues in what looks to be the Tomb Raider’s most enigmatic journey yet. Shadow of the Tomb Raider dropped its trailer recently, and in it lady Croft finds herself attempting to prevent the end of the world at the hands of a Mayan apocalypse....

This Shameless review contains spoilers. Shameless Season 11 Episode 4 “This only ends with death.” Shameless is at its strongest when it has a focused story arc to commit to and so season 11’s more laid back nature hasn’t done the series any favors. There’s still entertainment to be found in these characters and their shenanigans, but it’s hard to deny that a third of the season has passed and it doesn’t really feel like anything has happened....

The Pokémon series has always focused on the adventures of Ash as he strives to become “the very best” trainer. Ash cannot achieve his dreams on his own. Whether his male or female companions help him through another Pokémon Championship or defeat Team Rocket, he always has some help. That help may not always come from a close friend. The lesser known background characters support Ash and his friends. Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny may seem like a running gag character, but their roles are vital to keeping the world of Pokémon afloat....

The popular Mixer streamer Michael “shroud” Grzesiek is one to often state his views on the games he plays. Recently, he took to his streaming platform to discuss Fortnite, and he told fans about the one big change he thinks that the game needs to make. Fortnite is a hugely popular game with professional players and streamers as well as casual players. Both controller players and those who use their mice and keyboards on PC can battle it out against each other in the game’s Battle Royale....

The world is desperate for a new Simpsons game. In fact, when a survey was conducted by UK gaming retailer Game about which title is most in need of a remaster, The Simpsons: Hit & Run won out against all others. The gamers were right - I guess there’s a first time for everything. What we sometimes forget about the classic Simpsons games, be they Hit & Run or Road Rage or just The Simpsons Game, is that they’re not very long....

Among the Daedric Princes found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Malacath tends to be overlooked. Malacath, the Daedric Prince, represents those ostracized or otherwise shunned by society– a character who can only be interacted with if the player accesses one of the orc strongholds of the province. Malacath’s statue has a demonic appearance very similar to other violent Daedric Princes, such as Mehrunes Dagon. As the patron of orcs, Malacath is less a bringer of chaos and more a demonic being standing up for his own people, the Orsimer....

Skyrim is one of the greatest video games in RPG history, landing comfortably among the ranks of timeless classics like the original Diablo and The Legend of Zelda. The game was released in 2011 as the fifth game in the Elder Scrolls franchise, and rabid fans are still playing the game and modding it up years later. It’s the freedom that players love. Run in any direction, and they’ll discover a new town, a mysterious cave, or a hidden quest....

One of the most fun classes you can play as in any RPG game is the mage, as having the power of the elements at your fingertips is something you can only dream of and is far more fantastical than simply swinging a sword around. In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the mage class is one of the more powerful you can play as and has a lot of tricks up its sleeve to allow you to play however you want....

There’s no question that Skyrim significantly simplified the Elder Scrolls formula, removing character classes among other features in order to make the game more accessible to a wider audience. It worked. The Elder Scrolls 5 sold 20 million copies between 2011 and 2014 and remains one of the most successful RPGs to date. This has led some to worry that The Elder Scrolls 6 with further simplify the series, though that is not necessarily a bad thing....

I love Bulbasaur, but Squirtle is my guy. I’ve been breeding beastly and belligerent Blastoise since I was four years old, so I can’t just go and change who my Gen 1 starter is now - that would be sacrilege. Still, I feel bad for poor little Charmander, who was always the one ‘mon left in its PokeBall in my version of Pokemon Blue. I’m sorry Charmander, you did nothing wrong - if I’d been allowed to take you too, you’d better believe I would have....
