A new Fallout 4 video shows Codsworth strutting around on some new ‘sexy legs’ from the Automatron DLC, which is just about as alarming as one might think it is. Fallout 4’s Automatron DLC has been out for lass than a week, and it took exactly that long for someone to combine the words ‘Codsworth’ and ‘Sexy Legs’. The stalwart robotic butler usually floats around the Commonwealth, but thanks to the robot-building features of the latest Fallout 4 expansion, he can finally perfect his fashion runway stride thanks to a pair of Assaultron legs....

A new Fallout 4 modification gives gamers the option to select female bobbleheads instead of the default male version, and even boasts some hair and outfit options. One of the most iconic faces in videogame franchise history – that is, Vault Boy – is now a family man. He’s now got a sister thanks to a modder named Justice123, who evidently thought that the all-male bobblehead cast was unfairly leaving out the female portion who played the game....

As one might expect from this post-apocalyptic franchise, Fallout 76 is full of pitfalls for the unsuspecting wanderer. Here are ten common slip-ups and beginner mistakes everyone has likely fallen prey to. Don’t Be A Hoarder A common tip for these sorts of games is to loot everything, but unsurprisingly in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, you’ll mostly be picking up junk. Yes, junk is good to scrap for crafting components, but don’t bother unless you plan on doing that right away....

One of the highlights of Far Cry 5’s demo at E3 2017 was the introduction of several “Guns for Hire,” NPC allies that support the player in unique ways. Three allies were available then, but the number has now ballooned up to nine. Today Ubisoft released new info on all nine of Far Cry 5’s Guns for Hire, replete with individual trailers and short profiles. The nine different Far Cry 5 allies are split into three different subsections: Resistance, Guns for Hire, and Fangs for Hire....

This FARGO review contains spoilers. Fargo Season 4 Episode 9 Though the episode invites comparison to the Wizard of Oz, it’s also deeply informed by the Coen Brothers’ filmography, more so than the typical installment. The hour finds Rabbi and Satchel on the road, trying to flee Constant Calamita’s pursuit. Their journey leads them to the Barton Arms’ hotel in which they encounter a whole house of colorful characters despite the black and white presentation....

We came for The Mandalorian, stuck around for WandaVision, and, as we wait for The Falcon and Winter Soldier and Loki to arrive, there’s now a huge pile of new catalogue additions to work through, courtesy of Disney Plus’ Star brand. Star launched on the Disney Plus streaming service in territories outside of the US (where Disney already has a home for adult drama in Hulu) on the 23rd of February....

RPG fans have a wealth of games to choose from to have an enjoyable experience, but it’s Larian Studios’ Divinity: Original Sin 2 that remains as one of the most immersive titles to ever grace the genre. After all, Divinity provides players with unique dialogues and story choices, fully-interactive battles, and a fluid growth system. Unfortunately, new players might find all of these quite a bit overwhelming. Thankfully, the game offers quite an intuitive character creation system for newbies....

If you’re more of a fan of the recent action-inclined Resident Evil releases, we’ve got some good news for you: the Resident Evil 3 remake features a handy little mechanic that’ll make the combat feel much more fluid. As with any long-running franchise, Capcom’s much-acclaimed scare ‘em up has been through quite a few changes since the iconic original launched back in 1996. The earlier games, as veterans will tell you, were defined by several features: slow-paced exploration, clunky and super awkward controls, an inventory system that constantly saw you juggling the few items you could carry… this was early survival horror in a nutshell....

Last month, developer id Software and publisher Bethesda Softworks released Doom Eternal, which is the latest installment in the longstanding first-person shooter franchise. Serving as a direct sequel to 2016’s Doom, players will once again take the role of the Doom Slayer, who is an ancient warrior who hunts down demonic creatures from Hell. Now, Doom fans who still haven’t tried out Doom Eternal would be happy to know that the game is currently discounted for the PC....

As a new world-building engine within the PlayStation 4 console, Dreams allows its fans access to tools to create all-new possibilities within the universe of the game. And even though it has only been a year since the release of Dreams, in-game developers are already coming up with their own full-blown video games. One novice game developer, known as Shane Marshall, shared a trailer on his YouTube page for his own self developed game titled MODI: Son of Thor that is out now for gamers to experience....

Baldur’s Gate 3 is the next big game set in the Dungeons and Dragons’ universe, and while it appears that the Mind Flayers are set to be the primary antagonists in the game, Dungeons and Dragons has a heap of monsters that it could pull from for major boss fights, regardless of what level a character is. For Baldur’s Gate 3 to really capture the essence of D&D’s breadth of enemies, it needs to draw from the entire spectrum and provide players with a sense of growth....

Dunkey (a.k.a. videogamedunkey on YouTube) is being roasted on Twitter because he gave a Final Fantasy VII Remake review that was somewhat less than sparkling. The FFVII Remake has accumulated some shining reviews from critics and fans alike. Our own review gives it a decent 4 out of 5 stars, commending the game on its beautiful visuals, soundtrack, and combat, as well as its nostalgia factor. The score fell short, however, thanks to the game’s camera issues, uninspired dungeon designs, and the fact that a whole lot of extra content feels like a filler aimed at stretching out the run-time....

Assassin’s Creed is a popular franchise, but it’s not a consistent one. The first title showed promise, but suffered from poor execution. Assassin’s Creed 2 was good; its follow-up, Brotherhood, was even better. Players complained about Assassin’s Creed 3’s dull protagonist and large, empty spaces, but they loved the pirate-themed Assassin’s Creed 4. All this to say that, while Assassin’s Creed Unity had a slew of problems, it’s not a franchise killer....

In a bit of news that’s probably not shocking to many, E3 has just lost its creative director. Production company iam8bit was in charge of organizing and designing the concept for the 2020 show but has decided to resign from the position just three months before E3 was set to happen. That can’t be a good sign. In a post on Twitter, the company gave a standard response wishing everyone the best of luck with this year’s show....

Earlier this year, in place of its usual E3 presence and showcase, EA hosted its Play Live event this summer to talk about its immediate and future plans for gaming. Alongside games that came out this fall, such as EA Motive’s Star Wars Squadrons, there also were teases and discussion about the many EA game studios preparing for the next console generation. There was prototype gameplay shown off from studios like DICE, Criterion, and BioWare, and even EA Motive....

Throughout the week, EA has revealed the overall ratings for players for the upcoming Madden NFL 21. Most position overalls have been released including all quarterback ratings, but on the last day of reveals, EA has announced the top 10 receivers in Madden NFL 21. Only one receiver tops the chart with a 99 rating this year. Michael Thomas is the last member to join the 99 club and for good reason....

From Software has recently confirmed that they’ve decided to delay Elden Ring‘s release date from January 23, 2022, to February 25, 2022, and, in the process, have thrown an already hectic 2022 release schedule into chaos. First off, the Elden Ring delay itself seems simple enough and probably isn’t enough reason to make fans worry that there are serious problems behind the scenes. Many people were stunned to see Elden Ring get such an “early” release date in the first place, and the Elden Ring team seems to be saying that they just need a little time to get it right....

One of the most highly anticipated releases that the public still knows next to nothing about is From Software and George R.R. Martin’s Elden Ring. Gamers have been clamoring at every bit of information leaked or released by From about the title, but one of the most curious details about the upcoming game is director Hidetaka Miyazaki’s claim that the game’s world will be what he describes as “open field.”...

Error code 2123-1502 struck many Nintendo Switch users last week after firmware update 12.0.3 rolled out. The code would come up whenever a player tried to download a new game or a new game update, preventing them from expanding their library or keeping up with the latest games. In the absence of official acknowledgment from Nintendo, Switch users banded together on Reddit to share homebrew tips for getting around error code 2123-1502, such as changing your DNS settings or quickly selecting “download settings” before the error code has a chance to and then selecting “download this software first....

Originally slated for launch later this year, Evil Dead: The Game may be aiming for a February 2022 release window instead, at least according to actor Bruce Campbell. The title recently received a new gameplay trailer during the Summer Game Fest, though no exact release date was revealed back then. Campbell made his statement during a Q&A session dedicated to the 40th anniversary of the original Evil Dead movie. The actor said Evil Dead: The Game is “surprisingly good,” joking he’s naturally supposed to say that every time he’s asked about it....
