HUMILIATION Despite my tepid reaction to the beta ofQuake Champions, one has to admit that the characters are pretty bad ass. Seeing Ranger make a return is a nostalgic joy and some of the new characters look pretty awesome. I may not really care about their backstories, but I’m sure someone out there does. At least one of those someone’s isTitan Comics, an independent British comics publisher. They have teamed up with Bethesda to illustrate the background of theQuake Championscast....

Jake Sully making an appearance inAvatar: Frontiers of Pandoraseems like the most obvious shoo-in for connecting theAvatarfilms to the canon game. However, the timeline placement might not fit Jake Sully’s storyline, so how could all of that work out? Can you find Jake Sully inAvatar: Frontiers of Pandora? Unfortunately, Jake Sully can’t be found inAvatar: Frontiers of Pandora.The character’s also not listed in the credits for the game (viaIMDB), so Sam Worthington’s hero has no input....

The closed beta just launched on Steam LikeTribes? You should check outMidair. I was always too terrible at skiing to stand a chance in these jetpack-wearing shooters, but if you’ve still got the muscle memory, you’ll be right at home here. The only catch is that right now, it’s in Early Access. It just popped up earlier today, in fact. Archetype Studios has been working onMidairfor several years now and plans to fully launch in Q1 2018 as a free-to-play title bolstered by a “progression pass” and “in-game cosmetic sales....

It’s coming to Steam Early Access on August 30 Re:Legendhas been on the tip of my tongue for much too long, but thanks to a newly-confirmed Steam Early Access launch date–it’s due out Jun 23, 2025–I now have the game back on my radar where it belongs. It’s a JRPG about raising monsters, farming, fishing, crafting, and growing your humble village with up to four-player co-op support. Or, as Ray put it,Monster RanchermeetsRune Factory....

Are Smash Mouth cover bands really a thing? Here it is: the first and only “gameplay” video I really want to see forLife is Strange: True Colors— enough to establish the slice-of-life coziness, the dialogue, and the production quality. The latter, in particular, seems like a leap from the humble beginnings of 2015’sLife is Strange, back before the small-town adventure game became, well, a series. Anything after this point, for me anyway, is just spoiler icing on top that I’ll politely decline....

In North America I’m kind of tired of looking at the “coming soon” Nintendo Switch section of the My Nintendo website. It’s been nearly a year at this point, and should have helped bolster its launch from day one. Alas we’re all kind of just letting our coins and points sit in limbo, expiring, but maybe one person will find something to spend their currency on today — and that’ll be good enough for me....

You can get the letter set now, and the zip pouch later My Nintendo is at it again, and it seems like “roughly a day or so before a first-party launch” is going to be the cadence for new rewards.

It’s literally just 12 letter sheets and two envelopes, containing various facets of Pokemon lore....

Yep, Super Nintendo The Super Nintendo was the most popular console of its generation, and nearly 50 million units were sold worldwide. There’s no telling how many of those are still in working condition, but you may want to warm up a CRT television, dig yours out of the back closet and start practicing your quarter-circle inputs.

Hold them over your head A post from Nintendo Europe’s Twitter account has given us a video showing off some runes from the upcomingLegend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It looks like some pretty neat stuff, especially when coupled with the dynamic world of the game.
