While most of the nitty gritty about Fable: The Journey was revealed as part of our E3 2011 preview of the game, Lionhead Studios’ Peter Molyneux also shared a few details in regards to the game’s story. Since, contrary to popular opinion after the Microsoft press conference, players will actually be able to explore a large chunk of Albion in Fable: The Journey, we thought it important to report-on the context for this adventure....
EA believes Halo Infinite contributed to the dismal sales of Battlefield 2042. In a company “Town Hall” meeting with employees, EA acknowledged the disappointing launch of Battlefield 2042, and discussed plans to improve the game and the franchise going forward (thanks, Xfire). Laura Miele, EA’s chief studios officer, said the company “failed to meet the expectations of our players, and also clearly missed our own expectations”. Identifying the reasons for the game’s failure, Miele attributed part of the blame on the huge ambitions for the project, combined with the global pandemic which created unexpected variables in the development process....
A post shared by Phil Langone (@phil_langone) Another major difference is that J. Jonah Jameson is on the scene in this storyboard when Spider-Man goes “berserk” and the slimy podcast host captures everything on video. This could have added an interesting layer to the growing public disdain for the hero. Of course, the movie likely would still have ended the same with Doctor Strange erasing everyone’s memory of Peter.

Many players of FromSoftware games have heard or experienced tales of jolly cooperation. The Elden Ring community is experiencing this now thanks to a PC player simply known as Let Me Solo Her. The player has become a sensation within the Lands Between thanks to their decisive victories against Malenia Blade of Miquella. Struggling players often summon others for assistance with the Maleina boss fight, one of the hardest of any FromSoftware game....
Key Points Joseph Henry was known mainly as the inventor of the electromagnetic phenomenon. Henry’s invention was based on the work of the British electrical engineer William Sturgeon. Samuel Morse later used Henry’s relay device to carry morse-code signals over long kilometers of wire. The electromechanical relay, used as a constructive part of some early calculators and computers (see computers of Zuse, Aiken and Stibitz), was invented in 1835 by the brilliant US scientist Joseph Henry (1797–1878), known mainly as the inventor of the electromagnetic phenomenon of self-inductance and mutual inductance (see the nearby photo for Henry’s electromagnet from 1831)....
Rumours of an Epic Mickey remaster have risen again after a possible new render of the character was spotted on new Epic Mickey merch (via Nintendo Life). The first game, released in 2010 for the Nintendo Wii, was an attempt to return to the mischievous and adventurous sides of Mickey’s personality, and paint him as a real hero. Mickey’s paintbrush created or destroyed elements in the world of the Cartoon Wasteland, and different alliances, side quests and power-ups became available depending on the choices of the player....
Each and every year, EA Sports releases a brand-new entry in its soccer series, FIFA. The world of football is constantly evolving, with players transferring to new clubs, managers adopting new tactics, and much more. While the FIFA series has largely remained the same with updated rosters for the past few years, there have been a number of major changes such as online co-op in Ultimate Team and a reworked career mode a few years back....
Mortal Kombat 11 is the latest addition in the series. It’s one of the most popular fighting game franchises of all time. It helped popularize the fighting genre along with Street Fighter and Tekken. Even though Mortal Kombat has similar 2D gameplay as Street Fighter, it stands out with its life-like graphics, deep storyline, and a lot of gore. The franchise thrives upon gore and brutalities, and the latest Mortal Kombat 11 takes all the blood and gore to a whole new level....
Midway started the 21st century at a crossroads, as the tried and tested Mortal Kombat formula had begun to wear thin by the fourth entry. With the fighting series at risk of growing stale, the developer set out to revitalize the license through spin-offs and, ultimately, a jump to 3D visuals. Around the same time, Metacritic established itself as a review aggregator site, ensuringMortal Kombat’s rather turbulent post-2000 era is forever represented through easy-to-digest scores....
North American esports organization Evil Geniuses is set to make an unexpected return to Counter-Strike in the coming days.

With the recent release of Fallout 76, it seems there’s no better time to revisit the popular wasteland series and point out a few things that some players might not have realized in its previous iteration, Fallout 4. 2015’s Fallout 4 was an unsurprising success given its notoriety as a mainline Bethesda game, with numerous fans and a five-year gap since its last series entry. Due to fake announcements and mysteriously debunked countdowns, which may or may not have been to spur hype on the apocalyptic release, fans were drooling over the prospect of venturing through the American wasteland once again....
Fallout 76 has come a long way since Eurogamer branded it a “bizarre, boring, broken mess” back at launch in 2018, and Bethesda will be marking the post-nuclear online multiplayer game’s fourth anniversary with another year of updates - introducing alien invasions, a trip to Pittsburgh, and more - as detailed in a newly released content roadmap. 2022 will bring four seasonal updates in total, each spread roughly three months apart, starting this “spring” with a collection of additions including the new Invaders From Beyond event....
Diehard fans of the original PlayStation may remember Fear Effect, Kronos Digital Entertainment’s cel-shaded, FMV-heavy action-adventure game. All the way back in 2017, publisher Square Enix Collective revealed that indie developer Sushee would fully remake the game and translate its old-school design choices for a modern audience. This remake, titled Fear Effect Reinvented, effectively disappeared from the gaming news landscape and general public discourse for years, leaving its future in doubt....

Back in January, Crysis 4 was sort of announced with a short teaser trailer, but we have not had any concrete details about the game since then. That situation has changed, as the official Crysis Twitter account has now revealed that Crysis 4 will have former Hitman 3 game director, Mattias Engström, at the helm.

We all knew that ray tracing would be a hot feature in gaming. Likewise, a lot of folks thought that the new Nvidia RTX cards, most especially the GTX 2080 Ti, would be a fairly high-end GPU for quite some time. Then, of course, a few leaks popped up here and there teasing the Nvidia Titan RTX. That means the GTX 2080 Ti will have to move over because there’s a new king in town....
