You’re going to have to skip ahead to about the 1:45 spot in this video to get to the good stuff [unless you want to sit through the mid-November video unveiling one more time] but once you’re there you’ll have the opportunity to check out two of BioWare’s finest, gameplay designer Eric Fagnan and combat designer Corey Gaspur, take you through a few minutes of Mass Effect 3 battlefield action.

Mass Effect Executive Producer Casey Hudson tossed out an interesting tweet yesterday, his first since December 9 of last year, in which he wrote, “Looks like a nice place for some R&R…” The tweet was accompanied by an image of a crowded concourse, in the midst of which stand two rather familiar-looking figures. Not to be outdone, Mass Effect Producer Michael Gamble followed up with a tweet of his own just a couple minutes later, writing, “Does not look like a guy you’d want to mess with,” and attaching another image, this one of a fully-armored Krogan smashing a gigantic club into the ground.

Since it released last week, Mass Effect: Andromeda has received plenty of praise, as well as lots of criticism. In a post to Twitter last night, Bioware addressed all of the feedback it has received, and announced that it will reveal its plans for the future of the game next week. The statement appeared on Twitter (as seen below), and read in part, “We’ve received quite a bit of feedback, some of it positive and some of it critical.

When Does Blue Lock Chapter 275 Release? Blue Lock chapter 275 is set to be released on Sept. 7, at around 11 a.m. Eastern Time. Keep in mind that Blue Lock chapters are released through Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine in Japan, so there isn’t really an exact release time as it depends on when the physical magazine becomes available. That being said, the series does follow a weekly release schedule, so you can definitely expect it sometime on the 7th, even if the timing itself isn’t accurate.

I’ve stated in the past my relationship with Call of Duty as a whole is an odd one; by and large, it’s very much US military-backed propaganda, and most of its story beats and core premises (if you ever step out of the multiplayer side of things) are eyebrow-raising at best. On the other hand, they’re consistently well-produced blockbuster flicks in which you’re the one pulling the trigger, and this also applies to the MP.

Call of Duty: Ghosts is coming in November, but gamers who lay down their money for it now will find themselves also possessing Free Fall, a downloadable multiplayer map featuring the “dynamic map event” mechanic that changes the nature of the battleground as you play. Free Fall puts players into a skyscraper on the brink of collapse, in which elevators run parallel to the ground and windows have become alarmingly transparent floors.

Is Shiny Popplio in Pokémon Go? Yes! Popplio can be shiny in Pokémon Go, so Community Day is the perfect time to head out and catch one. Like all Pokémon, when Popplio is featured in a Community Day event you’ll encounter many more in the wild. With the increased volume of encounters, your chance of finding a Shiny Popplio is also higher, but that doesn’t mean Community Day is the only time that you can get one.

Modern Warfare 3 features the return of Riley, the military canine who has been part of the franchise well before it rebooted in 2019. He can be seen and interacted with during the final mission of MW3 in a well-timed break between the hard-hitting action and dramatic twists the campaign has to offer. Here is exactly when and how you can do so: How to Pet Riley in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 During the “Trojan Horse” mission in the Modern Warfare 3 campaign, players are allowed to pet Riley as they attempt to blend into the civilian environment.

Here’s What You Need to Know About AC Mirage‘s Characters AC Mirage doesn’t let you create your own character from scratch. Like most other AC games, it gives you a pre-defined character, with their own personal history. In Mirage’s case, you’re playing as Basim and that’s it. It’s a bit of a shame, really, because Roshan is a more interesting character and yet you can’t play as her. She’s been an assassin, or a ‘Hidden One’, for a while.

The past few Chapters of Chainsaw Man have been some of the wildest to date, but it seems that fans are more viscerally upset with how the friendship between Denji and Nayuta has come to a close. While they have had nearly 50 chapters together, it seems that their friendship may be finished. It appears that Denji just got served a horrifying plate of relaxation once Barem called out the final plate, seeing Nayuta’s head served down a sushi line.

To survive Sin Tzu’s cold and calculated assault, Batman must not only match wits against this warrior’s fearsome military mind, but also unleash the most furious attacks in his crime-fighting arsenal.

D&D Beyond proposed a universal update to the 2024 character sheet, leaving those planning to retain the 2014 Player’s Handbook ruleset understandably irritated. After player outcry, the digital D&D toolset has course-corrected and provided reassurance to those not yet ready or willing to invest in the game’s imminent 2024 makeover. In August 2024, players received word of D&D Beyond‘s non-optional upgrade to the 2024 character sheet via a Changelog update on the platform’s website.

Batman vs Superman, the unofficial title for the upcoming sequel to Man of Steel, has been pushed back to May 6, 2016. Warner Bros. Pictures states in a press release that the reason for the delay is to “[allow] the filmmakers time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story.” The change will put the film directly in competition with an untitled Marvel film slated for the same release date.

Last year, Brad Peyton and Dwayne Johnson teamed up to bring us San Andreas, AKA every disaster movie ever. And while that’s still getting a sequel – the earthquakes are really mad this time? – the two are also going to bring us a Rampage movie. You remember Rampage, right? You picked one of three monsters and destroyed buildings and ate people. It was lots of fun back in the day.

And you’re quite right that in any other narrative media the prospect of death is the great source of pathos, and something which games lose out on when any ‘death’ is impermanent. I have been thinking about what mechanics you could use to get around this, but the obvious ones (such as ‘permanent’ death) just result in games which are either boring, or frustratingly hard. Hmmm. On a tangent, your aside about the impact of the death of cute animals is also quite interesting in of itself.

Can You Change Difficulty in Black Myth Wukong? The answer is no. There are no difficulty settings to choose from in Black Myth Wukong, which means that you cannot increase or lower the difficulty level of the game. This can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it means everyone is on an even playing field because the challenge level is fixed, and everyone will have the same experience. But on the other hand, Black Myth can also be a fairly challenging game, and not being able to change the difficulty may make it tricky for players to progress through the game if they get stuck.

Is The First Descendant Crossplay? For everyone who has already started playing The First Descendant, you have likely seen all of the different system icons above other players’ names in Albion or during missions. This means that yes, The First Descendant is fully crossplay and compatible between PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. No matter what system you’re planning to play The First Descendant on, you can match up and pay with any other player, regardless of what system they’re on.

With Dragon Age: Awakening less than a week from its March 16 release date, copies of the game have been distributed to retail outlets to prepare for its street date and to media so that its likely goodness can be reviewed. While those copies in retail stores cannot be opened for fear of the wrath of EA, media outlets are actually supposed to do so. According to 1up, the case for Dragon Age: Awakening includes a card that provides a hint towards something big related to the franchise coming in early 2011.

Between fiscal shortfalls and the resignation of its CEO, it might be safe to say that Electronic Arts is not having the best time right now. If that weren’t enough the publisher has, for the second year in a row, been selected by voters to be the recipient of The Consumerist’s Worst Company in America award. While it’s arguable that there are companies perhaps more deserving of the title, it’s a definite sign that the EA has a serious image problem.

Japanese developer and publisher Natsume Inc. announced it had joined the ESA today, only one week after American publisher SouthPeak Interactive revealed that it had also signed up. Executives from both companies expressed confidence in the ability of the ESA to represent their interests and the videogame industry as a whole. “Our industry needs a strong and active trade organization and we are pleased to support that effort,” said SouthPeak Marketing Vice President Richard Iggo, while Natsume President and CEO Hiro Maekawa referred to the group as “the voice for the videogame industry.
