Releasing sometime this year After making it to Xbox 360, PS3, and PS Vita,Terrariahas set its sights on PS4 and Xbox One. Publisher 505 Games says these ports will be out later this year with all of the1.2 content“alongside some brand new functionality.” PS4 touchpad support seems likely, but we do know for sure that cross-play and cross-save withPS Vitaare supported. I like that we’re getting the heads up on announcements right before E3, though in many cases, including this one, it’s mostly a way for companies to hit us with the same info twice....

Michael B. Jordan should work out more When we learned thatCreed IIwould be about Ivan Drago’s son challenging Adonis Creed’s son to rematch I rolled my eyes so hard I got bruises like Rocky after a match. That kind of plot sounded straight out of the laterRockyfilms when things just got stupid…real stupid. Thenthe first trailerlanded and I got a little excited despite myself. Now the second trailer is here and I’m all in for some over-the-top boxing featuring sweating men throwing nothing but haymakers....

The treasure map points you toward the location of Caradec’s Bounty, which was buried to be found as payment later.

Sail to the Royal Burial Ground After finding theSea People Relic, continue doing your main mission Contracts until Scurlock sends you to hunt down a Royal Convoy....

Don’t start digging its grave yet With the release ofPaper Mario: Color Splashtoday, the future of the Wii U is looking a bit thin. There is just one big Nintendo title left for the platform, and that appears to be it. The end of the Wii U feels a bit like the final year of the GameCube, another console that went out with aZeldatitle that also shared a release on its successor....

Even though the game has been available on iOS for a few measly dollars,and on PC for free,Super Crate Boxhas finally hit the Steam ecosystem. We’ve already ranted and ravedabout how great the game is, so Steam fans have a lot to be excited about. Interestingly enough, Rami Ismail launched the game last week specifically with a media blackout in mind, just to gauge first week word-of-mouth metrics. The success ofSCBhas already been ripped off a few times in the mobile arena, simply because it’s a fun formula that justworks, as it entices you to play long or short sessions with equal fervor....

Two different Swedish retailers, Webhallen and the localized branch of GAME, are listing a new entry in Ubisoft’s open-ended mercenary series,Far Cry 3. “Rumours suggest this time the game will be played out in Africa but with an even larger world and with a completely updated Dunia engine,” writes GAME in its brief summary of the title. There’s no other news, but the have been rumors about the sequel being in production, which this retail listing would appear to back up....

Star Wars Galaxieswas a tremendous disappointment on many levels. Not only did it make the road to becoming a Jedi almost as difficult asactually becoming a Jedi, the game was a barren expanse of rocks, stones, and other synonyms for hardened mineral formations. Sony never did much to amend the situation either, their only attempts at adding content resulted in massive overhauls of core game mechanics that most people had started to enjoy, and when Sony came in and started throwing monkeys into the gears, many people were upset....

Catch up on last year’s games Lots of deals on PlayStation Networkat the moment. Sony has organized a sale on “acclaimed games from 2015,” as well as a handful of miscellaneous titles likeThe Banner SagaandAmplitudethat PlayStation Plus members can save on. The former group does indeed have some great games. I’d recommendBloodborne,Tales from the Borderlands, andUntil Dawn. The latter two surprised the hell out of me. I’m thinking of gettingAxiom Verge,Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, or possibly both....

We do a little bowling and we drink a little vino This one is another recommendation from my local video game dispensary. They told me they thought I had asked them to keep an eye out forThe Flintstones: Bedrock Bowlingon PS1 (also on PC). I did no such thing. I had never heard of this game since then. However, I can understand why you would want to exploit a boon, such as someone who intentionally buys bad games....
