A Star Wars fan on Reddit is questioning why Obi-Wan Kenobi did not reference Leia when discussing Luke Skywalker’s importance to the rebellion in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, in which Obi-Wan and Yoda’s force ghosts have a conversation in which Yoda refers to “another” potential Force user alongside Luke.The opening question asks “Why did Obi-Wan act like he didn’t know there was another Skywalker when talking to Yoda when he was literally there at Leia’s birth?”Some Redditors are offering potential explanations, with the top response saying “Um… He didn’t forget? Idk how you got that idea. He places…
Embark are continuing their meteorological experiments in extraction shooter Arc Raiders with a rousing injection of wind. There’s a hurricane coming to the game on February 24th, a new map condition that limits visibility, degrades shields, impedes movement, and makes you suck even more at shooting things. Still, this stormcloud has a few silver linings. With the gale at your back, you’ll naturally move a lot faster. Also, you may find it easier to avoid detection in the open if you disable your shield.
There are some characters that are just pure evil. Diablo from the Diablo series. Deathwing in World of Warcraft. Jetpack Cat in Overwatch – what, were you expecting Reaper? The mischievous little feline meowed its way into the FPS game with Season 1, Conquest, and has been virtually perma-banned in ranked ever since. Initially I thought she was cute: she’s a cat with a big blue jetpack, what else do I need to say? But her impressive mobility and ability to pick up other characters and zoom them across the map has proven nightmarish, made worse when her perks kick…
Most days, you’ll find me testing board games or writing about them. Reviews, features, news stories, and guides about the finest tabletop treasures are my bread and butter, but sometimes, there’s a specific title that makes me want to drop everything else. A game so good, I thoroughly irritate everyone around me by insisting we play it at every opportunity.This week, that board game is Life in Reterra.Despite being set in a post-apocalyptic world, there are no road vikings or mutant raiders to be seen here; it’s a surprisingly upbeat and cheerful doomsday scenario, making a nice change from many…
Ubisoft are laying off around 40 people at Ubisoft Toronto, the studio behind the forthcoming remake of the original Splinter Cell. That’s approximately eight percent of the studio headcount. It’s all in the service of Ubisoft’s drive to cut costs after restructuring their operations around a big dollop of Tencent funding, which has elsewhere seen Ubisoft propose to lay off up to 200 people in Paris, and chop fixed costs by €200 million over the next two years.
Verdict Resident Evil Requiem stuffs three decades of fan service into a single package, all while maintaining its place as a mainline entry to the series. While it’s not without its tedium, and the new protagonist takes a minute to find her feet, Requiem finally strikes the balance between action and horror that Capcom’s wrestled with for all these years. Inevitably, there comes a point in life where we look at our loved ones and notice, for the first time, that they are getting older. Leon S. Kennedy emerges from his Porsche Cayenne in Resident Evil Requiem, and I’m struck…
Despite Wonder Man’s disappointing streaming numbers following its January release, Marvel fans are now discussing what could happen in a potential second season – or if there should be a new season at all.The MCU show, which sees Yahya Abdul-Mateen II playing a struggling actor with secret superpowers as he auditions for the lead role in a superhero movie, debuted to positive reviews with a score of 91% on Rotten Tomatoes. Our own Wonder Man review gave it 4.5 stars, claiming it “stands apart from the rest of the MCU as a warm and witty buddy comedy set against the…
The Stop Killing Games campaign’s organisers are currently awaiting a chat with European Union politicians about server shutdowns rendering online-only games impossible to play. Said chat’s been set up by a petition which racked up just under 1.3 million verified signatures at its final count, with that being one of the alleys the group have gone down in pursuit of action against publishers being able to abandon games without leaving a way for them to be kept running. Rather than simply adjusting their ties and googling nice places to visit on a trip to Brussels while they wait for their…
What are the best Resident Evil Requiem settings for PC? Capcom’s PC ports have been hit-and-miss over the past few years, with such highs as the remarkably scalable Street Fighter 6 port and such lows as the dreadful Dragon’s Dogma 2. Fortunately, the Resident Evil games have been incredibly consistent since moving over to the RE Engine, and we’re pleased to report that is also the case for Resident Evil Requiem. We had a sneaking suspicion that the game wouldn’t be too demanding, given what we thought of the surprisingly modest Resident Evil Requiem system requirements. While you’re able to…
