A mystery revolving around two anonymous characters in Street Fighter 2 is solved a full 25 years after the game was released, courtesy of new information shared by Capcom. The Street Fighter IP is a franchise full of complexities. Although many fans of the iconic fighting series fill their time studying the ins and outs of the gameplay itself, the lore of the property is equally as inscrutable, with a plot full of varied characters with their own individual motives....
As E3 continues to do its best impression of the “not quite dead yet” gag, Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest is rapidly becoming the premier place for developers and publishers to share their biggest summer game reveals and announcements. If anything, this year may cement the show’s status as a viable E3 competitor or replacement. That being said, you should know that Keighley has already stated that you should expect this year’s Summer Game Fest show to primarily focus on previously revealed titles....
You don’t even need to be a fan of the Mario franchise to be a fan of Waluigi. The tall, purple and, quite frankly, awkward character was created back in the 2000s appearing as the “brother” of Mario’s “bad” equivalent, Wario. For a long time, this character would go under the radar with very little development or backstory with hardly any true fan base until one day his popularity exploded. Suddenly, we’d see people using Waluigi as a main in games like Smash Bros or the spin-off Mario games....
Any Super Smash Bros. game, as fans will tell you, is all about mastering character combos. It’s partially about knowing how best to utilize power-ups and your environment, too. But it’s mostly the character and combo thing. As such, it pays off to play different characters until you find the right one for your style. The young Hero of Time is a scrappy little fighter in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He’s a fun sword-based character to play as, but there are a few subtle additions in Ultimate that make this kid deadly on the battlefield....
This Supergirl review of Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One includes ALL of the spoilers. Supergirl Season 5 Episode 9 This is how the Green Arrow dies: Not by saving the city, but by saving the entire universe. (At least so it seems.) It is the job of the beginning of the story, which “Crisis On Infinite Earths: Part One” most definitely is, to set the stakes for the crossover journey to come, and boy did this Supergirl starter do it....
The “Afternoon with Eevee & Friends” partnership between Pokémon and Funko continues this month with the release of a Sylveon figurine. The release of this Gen VIII Eevee-lution is the third installment for the collection, after two playing Eevees kicked things off in February and a diving Vaporeon followed in March. This Funko Sylveon is captured frolicking through a field of flowers, a gentle breeze lifting its bows and ribbons into the air behind it—the perfect place for a fairy-type Pokémon....
After re-releasing on PC in February, Tales from the Borderlands has now found its way onto Nintendo Switch. For a limited time you can pick the game up for just $19.99 – its price will jump to $24.99 on April 14. Tales from the Borderlands was originally launched in an episodic format, with five episodes released between November 2014 and October 2015. The narrative-driven adventure is much different from other titles in the series, as this one is heavily influenced by player choice and puts a much larger emphasis on the story....
The central conceit of Tenet is the concept of “Inversion”. Obviously with this being a major plot point we can’t go any further into explaining what “Inversion” is without warning you that this will be a spoiler for the film. Major spoilers for Tenet to follow It’s time travel, all right? “Inversion” is what Chris Nolan calls time travel. Except it’s actually not quite that, and the twists on how time travel is used in this film make for a very Chris Nolan experience....
If the Resident Evil franchise is famous for anything, it’s for… well, sliding downhill faster than a professional skier on rocket-propelled skis after the much-beloved Resident Evil 4. If it’s famous for anything else, though, it’s the range of grotesque, mutated enemies it has players contend with. Just to keep things even, though, Capcom has been kind enough to equip players with all manner of absurd weapons over the course of the series....
Even at present, the ultimate video game console system in terms of sales and critical acclaim is still the mighty PlayStation 2. It was not only a satisfying step forward for the PS1 in terms of graphics and games but it had the triple caveat of also playing DVD discs and connecting online to the internet (at a very primitive level, mind). Still, it wasn’t all peaches and cream, with a wealth of games the console also had its fair share of stinkers as it was an era plagued with lame licensed games, blatant rip-offs of popular titles (e....
Eco Lifestyle is the latest expansion pack for The Sims 4 and like any DLC it has both good points and bad. The initial announcement of the pack’s theme and release of the short trailer led to some negativity in the Simming community. Many felt the theme was redundant and overused. However, as more information came out hearts began to soften and the buzz started to build. The pack is more in-depth and complex than most of the community imagined....
Tomb Raider has been around for 22 years now, and in that time, since the first Tomb Raider game in 1996, over 20 official Tomb Raider games, excluding the game’s spinoffs, have been released. In total, there have been over 58 million copies of the game sold world-wide, and with the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider around the corner, the series is still going strong. Here is a list of Game Rant’s top 5 Tomb Raider games to date in the franchise’s history....
Accents have had a huge role to play in fantasy media since the genre leapt off the page and onto the big and small screens, including in video games like the Dragon Age franchise and its new upcoming installment, Dragon Age 4. Accents have been a hint into the influences behind different fantasy cultures, and are tied up with history, fan expectations, and presumptions. The accents of Dragon Age were originally planned to be more extensive and rigorously applied, but the franchise has had a wavering relationship with some of the voices of the fantasy continent of Thedas....
Although Among Us gains a lot from simplicity, sometimes players want more variety than randomly selected impostors can offer. That’s what mods are for. Among Us has rapidly developed a very rich modding community in the last few months. The game itself is so simple that it’s no trouble to make small adjustments, adding roles and expanding on the game’s possibilities. Some of these mods have gotten as much attention on streams as Among Us itself, and they certainly add a lot to the game....
Outriders’ full launch is just about a month away, but in the meantime, players can dive into the demo to get a taste of the game. There’s a lot to really be done in this opening, all the way from choosing which Outriders class to play in the main game to getting a feel for the game’s adrenaline-pumping combat. Perhaps the best part of this demo is how everything players find can be transferred into the main game upon release....
It’s getting easier to predict which movies will become seemingly out-of-nowhere successes on Netflix. While on the television side of the spectrum, flashy new series or returning hits routinely become the top streaming shows, the calculus doesn’t always add up the same way for the streamer’s film library. For instance, this week one of the top films on Netflix was 2018’s 12 Strong, a Chris Hemsworth-led war film set in Afghanistan in the immediate aftermath of 9/11....
Just two days have passed since the release date of the battle royale sequel The Culling 2, and the development team behind the project, Xaviant Games, looks to be facing a pretty rough road ahead when it comes to the future. As a matter of fact, the studio has now openly addressed its concerns about what comes next, as the aforementioned title’s incredibly rocky launch has seemingly put the company’s very existence into doubt....
In a new trailer, Ubisoft outlines their plans for the first year of content updates for The Division along with what players can expect in the season pass. It’s been a long time in the making but after a number of wildly successful beta tests, Tom Clancy’s The Division is just a few days away from finally launching. Post-launch content has been on the minds of fans lately, especially after a somewhat vague description for each of the season pass expansions was released last month....
