Exos aren’t just playable characters in Destiny, they are a crucial part of the Destiny lore. There are many secrets attached to the history and purpose of the Exo machines. During the Golden Age, researchers at Clovis Bray wished to put a human mind in a mechanical body. A scannable in Braytech Futurescape explains, “Exo science managed to encode the Human consciousness into a form that could be digitally processed.”...
Focusing on players that that like to be a lot lighter on their feet, Hunters make up for their lack of bulky armor with lightweight attire. Not only are Hunters one of the most mobile classes in Destiny 2, but they are also the class with some of the best Exotics in the franchise. The likes of St0mp-EE5 and Orpheus Rig are notorious for their impact on Destiny 2’s meta, but there are just as many Exotics that are not worth using....
Season of Arrivals is now live in Destiny 2, and the main gameplay loop when it comes to earning loot this season focuses on the Contact public event and collecting Umbral Engrams. It is a similar system to last season’s Seraph Tower public event but with its own twist for this season. Like any public event in Destiny 2, the Contact event can be turned Heroic for a greater challenge and better rewards....
The first Clarion Call event, a new event being added to Destiny 2 that grants players double XP, will make its debut on November 17, 2017. But players won’t get that double XP automatically—they will be required to have at least one other clan member in their fireteam to reap the benefits of the Clarion Call. Destiny 2’s developer, Bungie, first announced Clarion Call events during its TwitchCon panel last month, where the Seasons of Destiny 2 were discussed....
In its “This Week At Bungie” blog post on May 28, the studio promised new content would be revealed soon for Destiny 2, including information about the season of content to follow Season of the Worthy and the upcoming year’s story. More vague teasers have been released since, but today Bungie gave fans something more concrete with a teaser video and the promise of a big reveal on June 9, 2020 at 6 p....
While most expected that Destiny 2’s Leviathan raid would have some form of Challenge Modes, a new update to the database all but confirms it. Sometime after the Leviathan Prestige Difficulty launches, Bungie will be adding challenges for all four of the major sections of the raid. Fans’ first tease of the Leviathan challenge mode comes thanks to a database update with five new emblems. One of those emblems, Glory to the Emperor, is assumed to be the emblem for completing the Leviathan raid on Prestige Difficulty, while the others seemingly correspond to the upcoming Challenges....
Casio is chiming in with a new Pokemon watch that celebrates the series and our favorite video game mouse Pikachu. This new accessory is a part of the Baby-G brand for women, and it’s a fitting partnership as both brands are at a similar age. Baby-G celebrated its 25th anniversary partly with The Pokemon Company, and now it’s the other way around! These watches are known to be shock-resistant and water-resistant for up to 100m....
In a post on CD Projekt Red’s official website, the developers re-established their commitment to quality in the midsts of the fiasco that has been Cyberpunk 2077’s release. They also offered a look at their planned roadmap for the game in the coming year, which includes an estimated next-gen update happening sometime in the second half of 2021. Cyberpunk 2077 has had a pretty tough go since release. With bugs, glitches, and issues dominating the game’s debut and forcing CD Projekt Red to issue refunds to players, it has not been the smooth ride that fans or the creators were hoping for....
Made in Chelsea’s James Taylor has revealed that not only did he not sell a PS5 for £1200, he never actually had one at all. Not getting your hands on a PS5 while others can is frustrating enough. Seeing people sell those consoles on for a monster profit just magnifies that feeling exponentially. The console can be found on resale sites for as much as $1600, and UK retailer CEX is selling used PS5s it has acquired for £750 ($998) a pop....
Even the biggest MCU fan would have to admit that the movies are a little bit formulaic. I know, because I’m a pretty big MCU fan, and I have to admit it. Origin stories are particularly bad for this, which is why characters are increasingly introduced in other movies first, with the plot threads already in motion before their own story comes to be told. Even then, the MCU loves to pit its heroes against diametrically opposed villains who share a common skill set or origin or history with them, except with twisted morals....
You can create some truly beautiful creations in a game as powerful as Cities: Skylines. It is a fun city builder with a great difficulty curve and the option to play in sandbox mode.

With the Hellfire DLC released, players are having more fun than ever before in Code Vein. There are countless enemies to take out, multiplayer co-op, and strong character builds for players to grind for. It’s as challenging as any other souls game and has many distinctive qualities that set it apart. With so much to explore it’s easy for players to overlook things and miss important loot that can help them down the line....
While attempting to snag a mid-range and budget-friendly graphics card has been quite difficult in the last six months, higher-end cards are arguably even worse. As the Covid-19 pandemic continues, and hardware production continues to slowly ramp up again, hardware shortages continue to plague the market in 2021. To be fair, things are improving in terms of hardware manufacturing, but it’s going to be a while before more Nvidia graphics cards are plentiful again....
Although many IPs and developers were able to land safely on their feet after THQ filed for bankruptcy and all of its assets were auctioned to the highest bidder, some games were not so lucky. One of the more intriguing games that was lost in the fallout of THQ was an Avengers tie-in game meant to release alongside the blockbuster movie last summer. Even though THQ scrambled to get the game done, and pulled as much talent together as they could, The Avengers was never finished....
There are many unusual creatures lurking inside the walls of the Oldest House, though one that re-appears several times in Control is the entity known only as Former. This strange mix of a cyclops and a spider first appears after Jesse attempts to cleanse an Altered Item that attacks anyone who looks away from it, though later appears in the Foundation DLC as a main ally to the new Director....
A gunsmith is a person with the skills to design, construct, repair and augment a firearm. In Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, that person is you. While the news that Ghost Recon: Future Soldier would support Kinect was spoiled early last year, it wasn’t until Ubisoft’s E3 2011 presentation where we learned how it would be implemented. Kinect functionality is utilized in a brand new feature for the Ghost Recon franchise: the Gunsmith mode....
Kickstarter has done a lot of great things for the gaming industry; it provides the space and capability for indie developers to create their dream projects. Thanks to crowdfunding, these Kickstarter games are backed by fans rather than big publishers, thus granting devs more freedom. This arrangement also gives fans the ability to support the games they’re most excited about rather than having to buy the same five AAA franchises....
Crytek has revealed the brand new “Can It Run Crysis?” mode for Crysis Remastered. Back in the day, Crysis was the benchmark game that all other games were compared. It’s punishing technical requirements made even the most cutting-edge hardware work for every rendered frame, and the meme of “can it run Crysis?” became a stand-in phrase for asking someone how impressive their computer was. Based on the minimum system requirements released just last week, Crysis Remastered won’t be nearly as exclusive....
It’s been out for little over a week, but Cyberpunk 2077 has already sparked interest in the modding community. Though the game doesn’t officially support mods out of the box, that doesn’t mean they aren’t there, or can’t be taken advantage of. The work thus far is in the early stages, but there’s already quite a lot of mods for gamers to play with. Some of these mods boost visual excellence, while others manipulate the game’s menus, options and control schemes....
