In GTA Online, Being Rich and Owning Everything Is A Pain In The Ass Posted: 30 Jul 2021 10:15 AM PDT ![]() Heads up: I'm about to sound like a rich, privileged asshole. In real life, I write about video games for a living, so I'm lucky to have an apartment. But in Grand Theft Auto Online, I'm a rich prick who owns a piece of every criminal enterprise in Los Santos. So yes, I'm here to complain about having too much shit in … |
Pokemon Unite's Pay-To-Win Is A Drag, Even If It'll Even Out Later Posted: 30 Jul 2021 09:15 AM PDT ![]() I've had a surprising amount of fun with the Nintendo Switch's latest Pokémon spin-off, the free-to-play arena fighter Pokémon Unite. Coming from the dense and inconsolable world of Valve's Dota 2, there's plenty I could nitpick about Pokémon Unite's controls, interface, and balance, but man if it ain't a blast flying… |

Instead, technical issues pushed the undefined launch time back by an unspecified amount. Problems regarding the test continued through Thursday night and into Friday morning. |
Minecraft’s 'Worst' Server Was Exploited So Hard, Griefers Could See The Future Posted: 30 Jul 2021 08:00 AM PDT ![]() The tale of how hacker group Nerds Inc. took over 2b2t—Minecraft's oldest so-called anarchy server—is convoluted and painstaking. It's the story of how 300,000 players were constantly tracked, 15,000 bases discovered, and over 200 million items stolen. And it was all achieved exploiting not the software intended to… |
Tips For The Ascent, The Best Cyberpunk Game Of 2021 So Far Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:30 AM PDT ![]() The Ascent is a straight twin-stick shooter for the most part, but there's a huge difference between surviving and thriving in Veles. |
Animal Crossing: New Horizons Adds Eggplant Cows And Cucumber Horses For Dead Spirits Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:10 AM PDT ![]() With July nearly over, one of Japan's biggest holidays gets underway next month: Obon. Not only will it be celebrated all across the country, but also in Animal Crossing: New Horizons with traditional cucumber horses and eggplant cows. |
Neo: The World Ends With You: The Kotaku Review Posted: 30 Jul 2021 06:00 AM PDT ![]() When I'm playing Neo: The World Ends With You, I'm smiling. Whether I'm running Rindo Kanade and his pack of teen misfits through the streets of Shibuya battling monstrous living graffiti beasts and picking up the latest fashions, or just rifling through the menus fiddling with equipment loadouts, I'm doing it all… |

PS2 Game Boxes Almost Looked A Lot Cooler Posted: 29 Jul 2021 04:45 PM PDT ![]() PS2 game boxes were entirely unremarkable, because they looked like every other plastic case available at the time, from Xbox games to DVDs. But an earlier design for them that Sony ended up ditching was a lot more interesting. |
Give Me The Stray Cat Game Right Now And Nobody Gets Hurt Posted: 29 Jul 2021 02:00 PM PDT ![]() During today's Annapurna Interactive showcase, French developer BlueTwelve Studio finally gave us an in-depth look at its first game, Stray. |
12 Hours With 2021's Latest Big Viking Game Posted: 29 Jul 2021 01:00 PM PDT ![]() I wanted to like Tribes of Midgard. It has great style, with wonderful visuals that feel ripped out of an ancient painting. The combat is fun and responsive. But it also incorporates some of the worst parts of roguelikes and survival games and quickly becomes repetitive, with little payoff or progression. |
7 Games From Annapurna’s Showcase You Should Know About Posted: 29 Jul 2021 12:45 PM PDT Annapurna Interactive, the publisher of well-regarded sleeper hits like Sayonara Wild Hearts and Maquette, held its first showcase today. Historically, the mega-purveyor of indie darlings has shown off its games in buzzy pressers put on by far larger companies, hitching its wagon to the likes of Nintendo, Sony, and… |

PS5’s Storage Expansion Update Is More Complicated Than It Needs To Be Posted: 29 Jul 2021 10:30 AM PDT ![]() Today, in a new post on the PlayStation website, Sony detailed how to expand SSD storage space for the PlayStation 5. The process is, at least to those who don't have existing experience with this kind of stuff, potentially a head-spinner. |
Activision Blizzard Hires Union-Busting Firm As Workers Start To Come Together Posted: 29 Jul 2021 10:00 AM PDT ![]() In a public statement addressed to employees earlier this week, Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick said the company was reviewing policies and procedures to help promote a more respectful and inclusive workplace.
