About a year ago, the mod team behind Fallout 4: New Vegas decided to take the map from the Obsidian Entertainment-developed entry and recreate it into the fourth numbered entry of Bethesda’s long-running post-apocalyptic franchise. Now, the modder collective has decided to show off some of the headway made with the mod project by releasing footage of New Vegas’ opening with enhanced graphics and details. As seen below in the video titled “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head”, New Vegas fans will be taken on a refresher course in the start of the game, in which Doc Mitchell–voiced by a new actor, by the way–wakes players up and guides them through customizing their character....

Previews of Bethesda’s forthcoming multiplayer post-apocalyptic RPG Fallout 76 are finally hitting the Web, offering a bunch of new details about the gameplay to fans of the franchise who are patiently waiting for the title’s release next month. One fresh insight that has been learned is that the game’s PvP combat will feature matchmaking elements to even a fight should the stats be lopsided in favor of one player. For example, should one be a low level player that finds themselves in a combat situation against a higher level player character wearing power armor, Fallout 76 will “equalize the damage somewhat”, as stated by the game’s production editor Chris Mayer....

Just about every major release these days features a special “collector’s edition” that allows the franchise’s diehard fans to pick up some memorabilia, while at the same time allowing the developer to recoup its development costs. But there’s been a feeling among some gamers for a while that not every title needs a huge statue (and the huge price tag that comes with it) in the box. Sometimes players want to buy the collector’s edition if the developer is tying extra in-game content or boosts to its purchase, but are then left wondering where in the world they are going to put their new bionic arm....

Elias Toufexis took to Twitter today to announce his involvement in Ubisoft’s newest entry in the Far Cry series, stating, “Yeah....

Over the past week or so, much has been made about the price of Destiny: The Taken King. As the first “major” expansion for Bungie’s MMO/FPS hybrid, The Taken King represents the next step in what is a 10-year plan. For all intents and purposes it is Destiny 1.5, and it costs $40. Now, for most gamers a new release for $40 would be an easy sell, but for Destiny that price tag carries a lot more weight....

While Sonic fans have been anticipating news of the Blue Blur’s next ventures from Sega since the cancellation of SXSW, it appears that they’ll have to wait a bit longer. According to the Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter account, news about any Sonic-related content has been pushed back indefinitely following a previous delay into April. The April delay would have seen a smaller-sized panel themed around Sonic the Hedgehog. The tweet can be seen below....

The new Doom games have proven themselves to be worthy reboots of the original classics. They combine great presentation with smooth gameplay and traditional Doom aesthetics. Blisteringly fast first-person action is entirely reminiscent of the 90s originals, preserving the experience. However, upon revisiting the first Doom title, you’ll be happy to discover that the game is still fun to play — at least, for the most part. The original released just a year after id Software’s other popular FPS game, Wolfenstein 3D, which had you playing as a Nazi-killing action hero who ultimately faced off against the Nazi leader himself....

Not much is known about the next Dragon Age installment, but those following its development can agree on one thing: Dragon Age 4 is all but confirmed to take place in the Tevinter Imperium. While Dragon Age characters from the Imperium, including Dorian and Krem, have been featured in games before, the Imperium itself has never been used as a setting. As such, there are lots of questions about what the Tevinter Imperium will be like when Dragon Age 4 finally grants players access to the place....

Longtime Dragon Ball Z fans know that there are a lot of inconsistencies when it comes to the Majin Buu arc. At one point, Akira Toriyama planned to end his run on the manga with the Cell Saga. This is likely why the story fits so well with what came before and manages to tie a nice bow on the story with Gohan finally surpassing Goku as the most powerful person on Earth....

Dying Light is free to play for a limited time; over six years after its initial release. Dying Light was one of the surprise hits of 2016, and a game that some are still enjoying to this day. There are those who have yet to have had the opportunity to try the zombie survival horror game, so now may be a perfect time. Although Dying Light is certainly not one of the newest games out there, the game saw plenty of additional content over the years and support from the developer....

Electronic Arts isn’t exactly the most popular company in the game industry. For years, the publisher has been embroiled in a number of controversies, including shady day-one DLC sales and the botched releases of high-profile titles like Sim City and Battlefield 4. In fact, many gamers feel so negatively about Electronic Arts that the publisher’s been voted the worst company in America not once, but twice. However, a company’s more than just a logo and a series of buildings, and despite the publisher’s poor image Electronic Arts employees occasionally step up and do the right thing....

There’s no doubt that the popularity of MMORPGs such as Dota 2 is steadily on the rise, especially with the game having been linked to events such as the Olympic Council of Asia’s announcement that eSports will be made an official medal sport at the upcoming 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China. Of course, the interest in eSports is multifaceted, for not only are the games themselves thoroughly engaging to play and have the potential to draw large audiences, but also they can serve as a means to further advance other technologies....

It all started when Epic decided that they would use Fortnite to support microtransactions that circumvent Apple’s App Store, thus saving themselves the hefty 30% commission for using the official channels.

Now Epic are ramping up the ruckus by dragging influencers into their battle, presumably hoping their support can be bought with free swag....
