As the multiplayer element of a hit open-world game, Grand Theft Auto Online has built on the setting its base game has set up. While GTA Online’s most recent missions have focused on continuing storylines for NPCs like Gerald, a newly discovered bug in the game is allowing players an unintended look into one of its protagonists’ lives. Because GTA Online is meant to be a separate experience from GTA V, there is no direct mention of the three playable characters from the main campaign....

Ah yes, the guide you’ve all been waiting for — how to find the hidden watermelon in Half-Life: Alyx. It’s good that life with all its technological advancements has led us to this moment. Half-Life’s watermelons have become an icon in their own right since they featured in the second game back in 2004. There are few things in life as satisfying as hearing that little squish when you chuck the melons at a wall or someone’s head and seeing the lesser melon bits go flying about....

The Human-Covenant war is a big part of the Halo franchise. In fact, the narratives of several games revolve around the conflict. And if it wasn’t for Master Chief, then the Covenant would’ve had a good chance of winning the whole thing. After all, they have some advanced technology, which they use to build things like weapons, armor, and vehicles. That last one is especially true as the alien race has plenty of different machines at their disposal....

Rumors going into E3 2019 claimed that Xbox would show off gameplay footage for Halo Infinite, but, while the game did appear at Microsoft’s press conference, the trailer that was shown was mostly cinematic in nature, and it did not show off any of the game’s main systems or moment-to-moment gameplay. And it looks like fans are going to have to be happy with this reveal for quite a while, with developer 343 Industries saying that it will not be showing off any more of the game until next year’s E3....

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has made significant improvements in the last few weeks, including the introduction of friend encounters as well as the arrival of new year 3 content. Year 4 content is also being planned and will release soon, but fans of the game may have concerns about future content updates following a report that developer Jam City has suffered layoffs. A report published by Gamasutra last week cites an anonymous source at Jam City that claims that the Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery developer recently laid off some employees....

Skyrim became available on Xbox Game Pass last month, resulting in tons of people getting back into the game. Of course, this time we are perhaps less engrossed in the story and more aware of how long it takes to get to the top of Hrothgar in order to meet the Greybeards. Fortunately, if you want to take your frustration out on the monks, there is a way to send them flying off the top of Skyrim’s tallest mountain....

The story of Dutch’s gang throughout both Red Dead Redemption games is a story of inevitable tragedy, a tragedy that proves fatal for a majority of its members. This consistent cycle of violence and ego always ended up in sorrow for every member of the gang. Some were completely blind to it, some embraced it, and some eventually realized and stepped away from it. This tragedy befell nearly every member of Dutch’s gang, throughout both Red Dead Redemption 2 and eventually even more in the original Red Dead Redemption....

Fallout has always been a post-apocalyptic sci-fi series, but the genre of each game is also deeply affected by its setting. Fallout: New Vegas, for example, took the game to the Mojave Wasteland, giving the game a distinct western influence as players became noble rangers exploring the west or cruel outlaws exploiting its people at every turn. Fallout 5’s location should have a big impact on its genre as well. While Fallout: New Vegas leaned in to its backdrop of a revived Wild West, Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 didn’t take as much advantage of the opportunity to explore how their settings could influence the game’s genre as well....

Fans of Final Fantasy 7 have debated “Tifa vs. Aerith” for over 23 years, and now that Final Fantasy 7 Remake exists, the debate has only gained traction and will more than likely never end. Each side prefers the qualities of the character that they’re arguing for. For Tifa, it’s her dependable and robust nature; for Aerith: her sweet and goofy heart. In defense of their preferred character, fans have even gone so far as to say Square Enix preferred one over the other, and, unsurprisingly, Square Enix has decided to respond to this accusation....

Guerrilla Games technical director Michiel van der Leeuw details the benefits players will notice when playing Horizon: Zero Dawn on a PS4 Pro with a 4K display. When Sony first unveiled PS4 Pro, a more powerful version of its the standard PS4, the reveal was accompanied by 4K resolution gameplay footage for Horizon: Zero Dawn, showing that the new IP from Guerrilla Games would take advantage of the new hardware. A couple of months after PS4 Pro support was confirmed for Horizon: Zero Dawn, Guerrilla Games technical director Michiel van der Leeuw has detailed exactly how the game is improved when played on the new system....

It’s no secret that when We Happy Few first launched in Early Access many gamers were disappointed by the survival mechanics and the lack of a narrative. Luckily developer Compulsion Games took those criticisms to heart and decided to dial back the survival element and put story more at the forefront. As a result, We Happy Few feels a lot closer to the title teased in that E3 trailer a few years ago....

Microsoft’s acquisition of ZeniMax Media, parent company of game publisher Bethesda Softworks and all of its prized studios, isn’t just one of the biggest deals ($7.5 billion) in the history of the industry. It’s an arrangement that could very well change the course of gaming as well as the outcome of the Xbox Series X vs. PS5 console war. That may sound like an exaggeration. To be fair, we’ve already seen some people jump to incredible conclusions regarding the implications of this deal and how it will affect consumers in the coming years....

This Star Wars: The Mandalorian article contains spoilers. On the surface, the story of Star Wars is one of good and evil, oppression and rebellion, failure and redemption – the sort of big, broad themes that have resonated across decades and through generations. In actuality, Star Wars is a story of seemingly unending daddy issues, as a series of men who range from outright horrible to simply neglectful abandon, abuse, and otherwise damage their children to such a degree that the entire galaxy often ends up paying the price for it....

Without a doubt, The Last of Us: Part 2 is one of the most highly anticipated PS4 exclusives in recent memory, and fans have been clamoring for as much information about the forthcoming action-adventure game as possible. While Naughty Dog has yet to drop any major bombshells about the title following its gameplay showcase at E3 2018, the developer and Sony did at least decide to offer fans some goodies to celebrate Outbreak Day, with the biggest offer being a Ellie PS4 theme that’s free for a limited time....

Prior to and during E3 2011, Human Head Studios sought to explain that their forthcoming sequel, Prey 2, wasn’t just a retread of the ideas explored in the first game, but was ostensibly a new adventure. Players would take on the role of Killian Samuels, a US Marshal aboard the flight that is transported into the alien world in the Prey 1. After spending a few years on that alien planet, Samuels becomes a bounty hunter for a wide variety of alien species....

Here’s something I didn’t expect to discover during my Oculus Quest 2 review: the resolution is so good that it’s almost as useful for watching movies as it is for playing games. Even if I wasn’t interested in playing VR titles, I think the Quest 2 has plenty of utility as a dedicated movie and TV watching device. If you’ve ever lay in bed and watched a movie on your phone, consider that you could have been watching it in glorious (nearly) 4K resolution in what’s essentially a virtual movie theater....
