A 7.1 magnitude earthquake shook a huge part of Southern California over the weekend. At the time, Twitch streamer Shroud was playing Apex Legends live. His stream captured the moment the earthquake hit, before him and his friends continued playing through the tremor. The clip above shows the moment Shroud starts to panic as he realizes what’s happening. While Californians are generally prepared for earthquakes, due to the area being close to some major fault lines, it can still be an unnerving experience when they actually hit....

Skyrim is generally an easy game because the player can adjust the difficulty as they see fit, and it is easy to become overpowered in most Elder Scrolls games. Skyrim players can obtain unique equipment, powerful spells, and unique perks that allow them to become much more powerful than their enemies very early in the game. Some players have been playing Skyrim for so long that they want a new challenge that will make the game more difficult to complete, and there are some very interesting ideas that players have come up with over the years....

Combat is a core part of The Elder Scrolls franchise. Every mainline game has made changes to the combat formula to some degree. Oblivion made combat based on skill rather than dice rolls, and Skyrim focused on improving the feedback of combat while introducing the Dual-Wield mechanic and Shouts. With nearly a decade since it was released, there are still aspects of Skyrim’s combat mechanics that some players are unfamiliar with....

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, some of the best fun comes from the game’s RPG elements. The possibilities are endless, considering how many companions there are to recruit, guilds there are to join, and people there are to kill. You could do everything, like some limitless god, or restrict yourself to the activities and choices that make sense for your character. The game tries to give its players a good time either way....

Thanks to the game’s simple and straightforward mechanics, two to four players can see pirates, zombies, dinosaurs - and soon, comic book characters - fight for domination....

Jab, jab, uppercut, bang! He’s soaring into the stratosphere. Valheim doesn’t really allow you to wallop lads up into space, but the boxing still feels surprisingly good. I mean, the first thing you need to do when you boot up a server is punch the life out of some trees, the most nefarious enemies in the game, so you can get enough timber for an axe. What I mean is, at its heart, Valheim is a Viking game about clobbering stuff with your drengr knuckles....

Without a new PlayStation Experience event or E3 2019 to lean on, Sony has been attempting to chart its own course by experimenting with new ways to keep its fans informed. In addition to utilizing the 24/7 news cycle, Sony has also created a streaming series called State of Play, where the company shows off new trailers, new game announcements, and new gameplay footage. While the first one brought fans a look at games like Mortal Kombat 11 and Days Gone, Sony is getting ready to debut another State of Play session with a few surprises this time as well....

It’s no secret that the PS4 is leading the pack when it comes to current generation consoles right now. Sony has built a comfortable lead since launching their device in mid-November, and they have surrendered little ground to the competition since then. While most would attribute Sony’s early success to their clear messaging, favorable price point, and some poor decisions by their competitor, those likely aren’t the only reasons. In fact, Sony’s Andrew House thinks that the Nintendo Wii may have helped build the PS4’s early lead....

Spider-Man: Far From Home hit theaters on July 2 to a massive $39 million opening, with fans of the webhead and the MCU overall packing theaters. One group that attended was developer Insomniac Games, the studio responsible for the highly-successful Spider-Man PS4 title, but the developers were likely not the only ones to realize that Spider-Man: Far From Home has an Easter egg that alludes to the PS4 exclusive, Spider-Man. It’s worth highlighting that this article may contain MINOR SPOILERS for those who have yet to see the film....

Ubisoft’s Splinter Cell franchise has been dormant for quite awhile, with the latest game in the series releasing back in 2013. While no new game has been announced quite yet, Atomic Productions has put together an impressive fan film that could scratch that Splinter Cell itch for those that have been waiting years for a proper eighth generation entry in Ubisoft’s stealth series. This new Splinter Cell fan film is actually a sequel to the Splinter Cell fan film that released in 2014....

Given the number of movies, sequels, and spinoff games that currently encompass the Resident Evil franchise, there really should be a lot more forgotten plot points. Part of the charm of the series is that the stories are fairly tight, with many of the dropped threads from earlier years picked up and used in later games. With the release of Resident Evil 8 looming on the misty horizon, fans and players are hoping that a few of those unfinished storylines come to a conclusion....

Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 has done a great job at both bringing back fans of the original game from 1998, while also attracting the attention of newcomers to the series. By rebuilding the lore and setting from the ground-up, the developer has stayed true to the formula of the original, without feeling too familiar either. No matter which story players choose to start with, collecting memos and files lying around are crucial to finding clues to completing puzzles and unlocking safes and lockers, which offer additional benefits to both Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield’s respective weapon and equipment layouts....

The 2019 iteration of Resident Evil 2 is often dubbed by many as the definition of how to remake a classic. The latest title released by Capcom stayed true to its source material, while effectively fleshing out its characters and tightening its overall plot. The game also revamped the horrifying tyrant popularly known as Mr. X, now that it relentlessly stalks the player for a good amount of time. Of course, it is important to remember that the 1999 title, Resident Evil 3, also introduced what would eventually become one of the most iconic villains in the Resident Evil franchise, Nemesis....

Respawn Entertainment co-founder Vince Zampella discusses the positive reception to Titanfall 2 and whether a sequel may be in the cards for the titan vs. pilot game. To say that Titanfall 2 has had a rough road towards success would be putting things mildly. Yes, the sequel had the advantage of a multiplatform release on both Xbox One and PS4, but its release date put Titanfall 2 in a very tricky spot....

Davis gave out this number in response to eSports consultant Rod Breslau posting an image of concurrent player tracking on Steam that shows Rocket League hitting a number well above its average over the past year....
