DJ K.K. looks better than you It’s been interesting to watchAnimal Crossinggo from being perceived as a weird “kiddie” game that most people bought just for the old NES games to something appreciated by good looking adults across the world. Case in point, this newAnimal Crossing; New Leaftote bag. I picked one up a few days ago and people who don’t know squat about the series are going crazy for it....

Cross-play between Xbox 360, PC, and Xbox One Shadowrunwas a curious case of a shooter with impressive ideas that had a half-baked execution. I remember being ecstatic that there was finally a PC and Xbox 360 cross-play title, but the results were that PC users ended up getting the short end of the stick. Aside from higher resolutions, the controls had heavy mouse acceleration and auto-aim to keep things in line with console players....
Starfieldis undeniably the biggest game of this year, if not of this entire console generation. However, in a display of irony, someone decided to show what this immense RPG would look like if it resembled something tiny. Using a camera technique known astilt-shifting, YouTuberFlurdehgives us a view ofStarfieldthat can only be described as micro. We see the likes of New Atlantis and Akila City looking like miniature versions of their original selves, as NPCs scurry about the place....
It feels like only yesterday that I poured hours into binge-watching YouTube videos of other people playing throughPapers, Pleasewhile waiting for it to download so I could play it myself, but to my horror, it actually released more than a decade ago. I first encounteredPapers, Pleasewhen Jacksepticeye did his play-through eight years ago (he’s played it again since, four years ago) and immediately rushed to download the game. It appealed to my inner detective, my knack for discovering secrets and my desire to pay attention to detail....

My mind is too fast for eyes… While each and every title of thePersonafranchise is typified by its delicious, captivating soundtracks, perhaps no entry blew up as that of 2016’sPersona 5. In particular, battle theme “Last Surprise” was everywhere, with its “You’ll never see it com-innnnng” refrain going viral — borderline mainstream. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUWQFnC2zqU Today, you may check out all of the smooth jazz stylings of the JRPG all over again, as the soundtracks forPersona 5and its 2019 revamp,Persona 5 Royal, have been uploaded to the music streaming service Spotify....

Bastion not coming to Android If you need an example of how the Xbox One’s initial lack of self-publishing hurt it, look no further thanTransistor. In general, look no further thanTransistor. Why would you want to look at anything else? It’s so damn pretty. Jen Zee is the best. Anyway, the wildly successful (and super good)Bastionwas a huge hit on XBLA as well as PC/Mac, the eventual browser version, and the iOS version (it’s sold over 2....
‘Just give me a call!’ My God. They’ve topped girl wood. With one of the weirdest openings ever, Ubisoft ushered inJust Dance 2017to Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now.” Aisha Tyler lightened the mood a bit by joking about crabs and lions, but it wasn’t enough. Just Dance 2017will arrive in October to every platform, including PC, and NX is slated for next year. It’ll have 40 new songs, and as in the past, you can use your phone as the controller....
Think big Travis Scott, who has the name of an accountant or a middle manager at a mid-sized investment firm but is actually one of the world’s biggest rappers, held a concert inFortniteyesterday. As you might expect, it went over tremendously. A unique and interactive event inside a mega-popular video game held by a musician of this magnitude at a time when everyone’s forced to stay inside — that’s a formula that is not going to fuck up....
Were you in the $500 camp all along? At long last, Xbox’s next-gen pricing is in our rearview mirror. Thanks to revisionist memories, everyone’s an accurate industry expert in moments like this. “That’s the price I was saying all along!” Yet it’s Pachter, not you, who gets all the respect. (In case you somehow missedthe news, the Xbox Series X is launching on November 10 and priced at $500. The lesser-poweredXbox Series Swas also formally unveiled yesterday and will be priced at $300 and launch on the same day....
