This weekend has seen a new set of challenges go live in Fortnite. With only a month to go until Season 3 of Chapter 2 finally rolls in, Epic Games is giving players new ways to earn plenty of overtime XP while they wait. This time around, the objective of this latest Overtime Challenge is almost deceptively simple: collect metal in either one of two specific locations. Of course, there are a few complications that players need to keep in mind, like the fact that the challenge is broken into multiple stages and that metal is the rarest material players can collect in Fortnite....

The Pokemon franchise is designed around single-player experiences and PVP multiplayer battles. It’s not built for the group party dynamics of a game like Dungeons & Dragons, but the monsters from Pokemon can still be used as enemies for parties to face. To this end, we have statted out Lapras for use in D&D adventures. Lapras was one of the Pokemon that every trainer received for free in Pokemon Red & Blue, as it’s given to them over the course of the game....

After 22 chapters, Marvel’s massive X-Men crossover event, X of Swords has come to a close, and with it, the Dawn of X era. The story touched every book in the X-Men family and brought us answers to a few of the lingering questions that were casually tossed at the audience during House of X/Powers of X. But X of Swords asked more questions than it answered. And heading into the next phase of X-Mastermind Jonathan Hickman and the rest of the magnificent team of X-Men creators’ big plan, that’s a very good thing....

The Witcher 3’s next-gen upgrade is right around the corner and I’m amping myself up for a playthrough where I actually beat the damn thing. I’m 400 hours deep, started it when I was in secondary school, and now - I’m wrapping up university and still haven’t quite finished it. I’ve poured hours in, went back and beat the first two games, dipped my toes into the standalone Gwent experience, watched the Netflix show, and even read a couple of the books....

It’s been a while since I’ve played through the Mass Effect trilogy, but the big decisions are still seared into my brain. I keep everyone alive on the suicide mission. I save Ashley. I never, ever romance Garrus or Tali. But even while my memory of the series grows fuzzy, I can remember some of the smaller decisions too. Punching the reporter. Calling up the Council just to hang up on them....

With a broad lineup of games heading into the next few months, Ubisoft has something to appeal to just about everyone. However, Immortals Fenyx Rising is one of the biggest departures from Ubisoft norms. It’s a new IP, and while it incorporates elements of newer Assassin’s Creed games, it also has a healthy dose of Breath of the Wild that makes it feel different from anything else the company has done....

Infamous Twitch streamer Indiefoxx has been banned for the sixth time this year, resulting in her losing her Twitch partnership. Indiefoxx has been banned several times since starting Twitch but has been most notable for playing a big role in the hot-tub meta, as well as recently farting into a microphone whilst wearing yoga pants. Those incidents led to her being banned from Twitch, but it looks like this sixth ban has bigger consequences....

Now, Marc-André Jutras, a games industry veteran with more than 15 years of experience under his belt, has stated what he believes the PS5 and next Xbox will look like power-wise....

Invaders from Mars may have appeared at first glance to be just another cheesy, cheap sci-fi B-movie made during the 1950s. It was, after all, a time when the genre was booming and both major studios and independent film producers started churning out shockers about alien invasions and giant insects at an alarming rate. But thanks to a dedicated cult following and some dogged technical detective work, a brand new 4K Ultra HD restoration of 1953’s Invaders from Mars has finally surfaced to re-introduce us to a surreal classic that had a profound effect on a generation of filmmakers who later gave us little films like Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Gremlins, and Star Wars, among many others....

If it feels like there’s a lot of focus on mobile gaming lately, that’s probably because there is. Let’s face it: if Kim Kardashian can make over 80 million dollars from a freemium iOS and Android title, there’s no reason more experienced developers like Nintendo can’t achieve something similar. The prominence of mobile gaming will only continue to grow, and so it becomes increasingly important to follow what cellphone giants like Apple are up to with their newest devices....

As possibly the most well-known video game series of all time, Pokémon has had a string of spin-offs ranging from the wildly popular to the quickly-forgotten. For every Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, there is an equal and opposite Pokémon Rumble U, or so the saying goes. The triad of Pokémon ranger games falls somewhere between the two - remembered fondly by those who played the games, but not quite as well-loved by Nintendo, it seems....

It all began with a small act of disobedience. It was 19 years ago when two best friends Jak and Daxter went to Misty Island and one of them, unfortunately, fell into a pit of dark ooze and turned into a furball. Set on a path to figure out how to revert this humorous transformation, the duo collects power cells, precursor orbs, and scout flies to help them on their journey....
