Streets of Rage 4 offers players four hidden retro levels for those that know how to find them, but doing so without a little guidance can be tricky. The trick here is to watch out for arcade machines in certain levels, and should the player use the taser on the machines, the secret level will be unlocked. These retro levels all reference back to previous entries before Streets of Rage 4, so long time fans of the series ought to get a kick out of the familiar locales and enemies....

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 Mr. Mime for use in D&D adventures. Mr. Mime debuted in Pokemon Red & Blue, but it could only be acquired through an in-game trade....

A few weeks ago, Ubisoft revealed and subsequently made its newest IP, Hyper Scape, available to play seemingly out of no where. At the time, Twitch streamers debuted the game, though viewers could also get in on the technical test early. The game attempted to mix up the popular Battle Royale genre by letting players fight it out in a completely digital landscape, much of which was inspired by the urban settings of Paris....

This much we know: Rosamund Pike makes a good psychopath. There’s something delicious about seeing a woman so beautiful to look at and so wonderfully put together turn out to be the embodiment of evil, and in I Care A Lot Pike nails it, with her pristine hair, angelic smile, and open features, coupled with her character’s perfect sartorial style. In I Care A lot, Pike plays Marla Grayson, a woman who works as a professional guardian and exploits loopholes in the legal system to extort money and property from her wards....

Immortals Fenyx Rising, due out next month, has appeared on the Nintendo eShop for pre-order, along with the download size of the game. Initially called Gods and Monsters, Immortals Fenyx Rising is Ubisoft’s latest foray into the world of Ancient Greece, following its 2018 title, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, which saw the long-running series dip into Greek mythology for the first time. While sharing some similarities with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (they are both open world games in similar historical settings from Ubisoft), Immortals Fenyx Rising has drawn comparisons with another Nintendo Switch game, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild....

Although it’s already been confirmed that Injustice 2 is slated to receive a character from the Mortal Kombat universe with Sub-Zero coming as DLC, the developers at NetherRealm Studio have also buried a reference to the brutal fighting game in the title, by hiding a fun little Easter egg mentioning a trope from the gore-soaked series. Those looking for the secret trinket can find it while playing in the DC Comics-inspired brawler’s Gotham stage....

Injustice 2 is just a day away from launch and an official gameplay launch trailer has to been released to celebrate the occasion. The sequel to DC’s comic book character fighting game has finally arrived. Over the past few months, players have been introduced to the full roster of playable characters, seen teases introducing Injustice 2’s story, and have had new features like the Gear system broken down. All that’s left is for Braniac to attack and Injustice 2 to begin....

At WWDC ‘14, Apple gave viewers their first look at the future of Operating Systems in the form of OS X Yosemite and iOS 8. While many are eagerly anticipating the launch of new Apple hardware in 2014 — presumably the iPhone 6 and a new generation of iPad — this particular presentation was focused solely on software. From a smartphone user’s perspective, iOS 8 offers a wealth of useful new features, like the iCloud Drive for storing files (photos, video, etc), a smarter messaging application, better predictive typing, FamilySharing for paid apps, music, and other downloads, and a new Health app....

Are we looking at the final design of the PS4? Not likely, but it’s always fun to imagine - and it’s not like we see anyone else trying to put something like this together. Many are probably wondering why a fan made mock-up would even catch our attention. It started with Sony releasing a tease of their console yesterday. This short, yet effective, trailer displayed fractured images of the PlayStation 4 console on screen, while the camera slowly zoomed toward a blurred out image of the console in its entirety....

It seems that Dead Space fans now have a reason to pick up the upcoming NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, as the downloadable PSN/XBLA game will offer the horror title’s protagonist Issac Clarke as a playable character. Yes that’s right, it seems that when Issac isn’t trying to survive an onslaught of undead-humans-turned-aliens or suffering from severe mental trauma, he likes to unwind with some basketball, and not the Zero G Basketball mini game from the original Dead Space....

It would seem as though the Grand Theft Auto Online community has seen a massive jump in players, as it’s free on the Epic Games Store this week. Unfortunately, not all of the players that have jumped into the game are out to play fair, as hackers and modders have been flooding onto servers now that they have free access. The giveaway of Grand Theft Auto 5, along with its online component, has easily been the most successful free game on the Epic Games Store....

It goes without saying that Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto series is one of the most recognizable franchises of all time. Despite its typically negative portrayal in the media – as the title is usually the first one scrutinized whenever the “game violence causes aggression” argument is trotted out like clockwork each year – the series has been hugely successful. For instance, it was recently reported that Grand Theft Auto 5 sales reached 54 million copies since its release in 2013, and if the developers continue to update the open-world action game’s online component, then those figures should continue to grow....

For the longest time, the Grand Theft Auto series was the only AAA title for Rockstar Games who were associated almost exclusively with the franchise. However, the Red Dead Redemption series proved to be a huge hit, as well, making it two franchises the developers are famous for. With the second Red Dead Redemption game’s release, it officially turned into a series that will see new entries just like the GTA games....

About a couple of weeks ago, the developers at Rockstar Games officially added an aerially-inclined Adversary Mode known as Bombushka Run to Grand Theft Auto Online, and the studio is now prepared to keep more content coming. As a matter of fact, the company has not only added another Adversary Mode today called Stockpile, but also fans will be able to pick up a new twin-propeller plane called the Mammoth Mogul....

Halo’s protagonist, The Master Chief (also known as John-117), has been the face of strength and bravery in gaming for years. He was the product of a military operation called SPARTAN-II that kidnapped children from their families and trained them to become the ultimate soldiers. The mask from his armour has become so iconic that it’s practically a second logo for Xbox. Doctor Catherine Halsey was in charge of the SPARTAN programs and had big dreams for her super soldiers....

After being in development for years, it looks like the Halo TV series on Showtime is finally starting to get off the ground. Showtime has cast the Halo TV show’s Master Chief, with Pablo Schreiber of The Wire and Orange is the New Black fame portraying the legendary Spartan. Schreiber will be joined by Yerin Ha, a newcomer who will be portraying a character named Quan Ah, invented for the TV show....

This Harley Quinn review contains spoilers. Harley Quinn Episode 12 The penultimate episode of Harley Quinn has arrived and it begins by offering up some seriously strange conflicts for the crew. This week Harley and her gang have to face down a group of mutant and maniacal trees whilst the Scarecrow uses his Poison Ivy pheromone fear serum to drive the citizens of Gotham towards the monstrous plantlife. In case that wasn’t hint enough, this is a Poison Ivy episode, and even better than that we get the return of Christopher Meloni’s crazed Jim Gordon....
