As probably the last game that one might expect to have a fishing mechanic, Hades surprisingly does, and even more humorously, it functions almost identically to Animal Crossing’s fishing system. After obtaining the Rod of Fishing, the Prince of the Underworld can cast it into the depths of the lava and rivers of souls. If that isn’t a hilarious addition to the game, what is? After catching a fish, Zagreus can cash it in for some rewards with the head chef in the House of Hades’ lounge....

Online multiplayer is the foundation upon which some of the best gaming franchises are built upon. Incredibly successful IPs like Call of Duty, Battlefield, and Halo have become renowned for their innovations in big team firefights, and gamers have come to expect each new installment to shake things up. After all, the gaming industry moves fast, and with heavyweights like Halo 5: Guardians on the horizon, its imperative to make each decision regarding multiplayer count....

This HALO review contains spoilers. Halo Episode 7 Would Halo be a good science fiction show if it wasn’t called Halo? I found myself asking this a lot while watching “Inheritance.” Is it a sign that a franchise installment has failed if one has to ask? In an episode almost entirely devoid of Master Chief, even the writers’ attention seems to drift. Kwan is on her way to meet the desert mystics, and reminiscing about her conflict with her father and the Insurrectionists....

When it released Wonder Woman 1984 to its HBO Max servers in December, WarnerMedia made it abundantly clear that it was ready for a new era of movie distribution. Now, in its list of new releases for February 2021, Warner is attempting another grand experiment for HBO Max.

Earlier today, it was announced that Microsoft had acquired Bethesda and all of its studios for a whopping $7.5 billion, meaning that the creators of titles like Fallout, Skyrim, and Dishonored could possibly develop games exclusively for Xbox Series X and PC — or it could just be the case that all of their games will be available at launch on Game Pass from here on out, which seems a bit more likely....

A brand new trailer just dropped for Hitman 3 which demonstrates just how multi-talented you can be as Agent 47. Plus best of all, elevators are back. After Cyberpunk 2077 is finally released later this week, we will all be able to breathe a sigh of relief as that will bring the curtain down on 2020’s major releases. And what a year it has been on that front. The powers-that-be in charge of deciding what will be 2020’s Game of the Year have quite the task on their hands....

Charlie Watts’ drums were the foundation of The Rolling Stones. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards wrote the songs, got the most press, and were the most visible members, but Watts dictated the style. Besides being named to Vanity Fair’s “Style” Hall of Fame, Watts kept the Stones’ sound intact and impeccable, regardless of whatever the songwriters brought into the studio. There is an incident recounted in the 2010 memoir Life, by Richards and James Fox, about a mid-1980s party which hits the nail on the head....

The Fast & Furious films love their over the top action. In the trailer for F9 alone we’ve got a “magnet plane” catching a car, a Jeep driving along a collapsing bridge, a car somehow catching a steel cable and using it launch itself across a gorge, and a car with a rocket engine strapped to it. Spy Racers, the animated spin-off to Fast & Furious, is no exception to this....

After the announcement that it would be delayed until 2019, some consumers have started to worry about the production of Days Gone. The game already has to overcome the negativity associated with being another zombie game and many comparisons to The Last of Us, but the developers are working hard to make sure Days Gone stands out from the crowd when it arrives.

First, update your iPhone to iOS 12 - this is essential for getting Google Maps to work on CarPlay. Now update the Google Maps app if it hasn’t automatically done so on your phone.

Cross-platform multiplayer has become one of the most celebrated features of the last few years. After Sony, Microsoft, and even Nintendo all came together to allow cross-platform play across titles on their systems, it seemed like the floodgates would be open forever, and we would never be restricted to only playing with people on the same platform as us again. While that was hopeful, it also seems it was a bit naive....

Let’s cut the baloney – a huge part of Stronghold’s charm is in its depiction of castle life. Watching the day-to-day of your kingdom’s population has always been strangely enchanting, specifically in the series’ first entry. There’s nothing like keeping an eye on woodcutter Keith Mopplehead as he hacks down a tree, while Anna Porkslate and Isabella Peebucket gossip around their hovels. Nevermind the impending siege outside my gates, I’m trying to build a maypole....

It goes without saying that one of the biggest deterrent to any single player’s enjoyment of a multiplayer title are glitchers/cheaters. Causing not just a ton of frustration for their opponents, but oftentimes completely altering the dynamic of a multiplayer experience, glitchers are public enemy number one when it comes to popular multiplayer developers. As such, it’s not surprising to hear both DICE and Infinity Ward to come out and acknowledge they are working around the clock to stop glitchers/cheaters from causing problems in Modern Warfare 3 or Battlefield 3....
