The evolution of Xbox continues – if you have sharp ears. There’s a new start-up sound coming to the consoles in a matter of days, the latest in a series of changes for Microsoft’s consoles.Asha Sharma, the CEO of Xbox, shared the sound herself on Twitter. “Sound on!” she captioned the post sharing a clip of the audio and an accompanying visual. I’ll be real – it sounds pretty similar to the existing soundbite you find when starting up your Xbox Series X/S.It doesn’t go quite as high in the first second, but then it’s right into familiar territory for…
I’ve never been into a pediatrician’s office to confirm this, but I’ve always suspected that in the centre of the room there’s a concrete trench beneath a metal lift. It just stands to reason that when an infant goes in for a check up, they’re plonked down on the metal frame, raised up two or three feet before the doctor goes down into the trench to inspect the baby’s fleshy chassis from below. Maxis have only poured petrol on my suspicion thanks to a section in The Sims patch notes titled: ‘Infant tuning’.
Blizzard’s latest Diablo 4 update strips out the automatic exit portals that were stealing away your hard-won loot, with Blizzard admitting the feature “missed the mark.” These patch notes for the action RPG’s new expansion also put a stop to the ability to infinitely farm Nemesis boss lairs, and start making changes to fix the frustrations of trying to complete War Plans in party play, with more set to arrive in Season 14. Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred makes major endgame changes, and on the whole I’m a pretty big fan. The introduction of War Plans gives the gear grind…
You need to solve Rathma’s puzzle in Diablo 4 during the A Blade’s Weight quest, as you journey with Lorath through the Archive of the Makers. This is a fairly early challenge you’ll encounter as you begin exploring Skovos during the Lord of Hatred campaign, so naturally you don’t want to get stuck and halt your progress before it’s properly begun. We’ve got the answer to help you move on, so here’s the solution to the Diablo 4 Rathma’s puzzle.Have you tried Diablo 4 fishing yet? We’ve got guides on where to catch all of the fish you need to…
Fresh off adding a new feature that’ll make my reckless driving a bit easier to recover from, SCS Software have announced a release date for American Truck Simulator’s next expansion, as the game continues its trek from US west coast to East. Illinois is the latest destination and you’ll be able to take to its highways on May 14th.
I’ve got a big grin on my face. Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era marks the return of one of the most iconic names in turn-based strategy games, a full decade since its last mainline release. This prequel, built by developer Unfrozen and published by Manor Lords and Against the Storm studio Hooded Horse, pulls us back to where it all began. It’s designed to appeal to both long-time series veterans and complete newcomers, and is already off to a fantastic start, rising to the top of the Steam sales chart and breaking even on its development costs within…
Right now, Civ 6 and Civ 5 each have more players in-game on Steam than Civilization 7 – and it’s not particularly close. The latest entry in the venerable 4X strategy series has failed to connect with fans the same way as its predecessors, and Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says you can blame him for the game’s failures.”Every time there’s a new Civ,” Zelnick says in an interview for the latest Game File newsletter, “the team at Firaxis thinks about: ‘How do we push the envelope far enough that it makes sense to buy this new game? And how do…
Well, this is a nice suprise. Just a couple of weeks on from me revisiting it to check out the DLC it’d gotten since my review run, Rebellion have announced that their Cumbrian post-apocalyptic survior Atomfall’s being adapted into a TV show.
I, like many others, was completely enamored with the pitch of Kingmakers. A time-travel escapade where one man is sent back to medieval times, and for reasons so far unknown, has to fight thousands of troops with the help of modern technology and, more importantly, modern weapons. Ambitious doesn’t cover it. For all the world, it looked as though Kingmakers was going to scratch that open-world game, Army of Darkness itch I’ve had for decades, until the developer released a message that it was going to miss its early access release date. Since then, we’ve officially heard nothing. It’s been…
Mortal Kombat co-creator and movie producer Ed Boon has admitted his feedback on a Johnny Cage fight sequence in Mortal Kombat 2 was way off base.”I had one where I was dead wrong,” Boon told IGN. “I was reading the script and the sequence with Johnny Cage and Baraka. Baraka says, ‘Johnny fucking Cage’. That line, I was like, ‘There’s no way Baraka would say that, no one is going to laugh at that.’ It’s like one of the biggest laughs in the movie… I’m glad I was wrong.”While you’ll have to wait until May 8 to see how that…
