Nintendo took to the skies today with a surprise Direct to showcase Star Fox announcements 10 minutes before they aired. The Star Fox Direct began promptly at 5pm CT, shocking everyone watching along with the out-of-nowhere surprise presentation. Earlier this year, leaks suggested a comeback for the long-dormant franchise, and it appears they were correct. Nintendo turned it into a big thing, too, with Miyamoto posting an announcement at 4:50pm CT. https://www.youtube.com/live/ePZeyh5q9R8 Star Fox made his triumphant return to screens last month in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which now looks a lot like a soft-launch for the series' revival, which is centered around a new Switch 2 game simply called Star Fox , a remake of Star Fox 64. But the excitement quickly changed to bewilderment once the gameplay footage began, showing some disturbingly realistic-looking designs for the characters like Fox, Falco, and Slippy Toad, which makes for a kind of awkward debu...

Assassin's Creed hasn't been doing the best these last few years. With games that failed to live up to the golden standards set by their predecessors, the franchise has entered a sort of limbo where every release tied to it is met with skepticism rather than excitement. A few years ago, while the series was still living off its prime, Ubisoft tried to pivot into moviemaking. The end result wasn't great, nor did the box office see it perform as well as it should, and so that was the end of that story, too. But now, Ubisoft wants to bring Assassin's Creed to the stage. Heredis: Echoes of the Past will see the franchise as a basis of a stage production that, as Rock Paper Shotgun writes , will be marked by "acrobatics, urban parkour, choreographed combat, and physical feats within large-scale immersive visual environments." It's not adapting any game per se, but will rather portray various historical epochs, much as the franchise itself has done ...

Dead as Disco is now available worldwide in early access, and you can tweak the in-game settings to get the best performance on your PC.

There's been plenty of speculation regarding the price of GTA 6 ; not because people are hyped to learn about a mere number, but because they fear it'll be even more than they already pay for AAA releases. Bank of America has just weighed in to make matters worse. As spotted by Seeking Alpha , Bank of America analyst Omar Dessouky recently stated that a price increase over the baseline would be good for the entire industry, actually. "We also heard from attendees that the industry, which is perceived as struggling, would have difficulty selling games for $80 if GTA 6 came out at $70. We think it’s in Take-Two's self-interest, as a publisher and partner to many developers, to raise the price point for the entire industry." And that's both dangerous and, well, demonstrably false. A negligible knowledge of the industry's history would've informed Dessouky that GTA IV launched with a $10 higher price point than all other AAA games of its tim...

The Canyon map in Far Far West has three different Music Disc Fragments that you can locate, and doing so will unlock a unique song that you can play inside the game. As usual, the locations will be hidden, and you'll need to scout every point to find them manually. Let's find out where the fragments can be found. How to find all Music Disc Fragments in Canyon in Far Far West The three fragments don't have a certain order to find them on the map. You can also break down your search across multiple runs to save your time, as they're located in different parts.

Grand Theft Auto 6's development is trudging along to release later this year, but the hotly anticipated sequel won't be coming to PC...at least not right away. PS5 and Xbox Series X|S will be home to GTA 6 at launch, but PC gamers are being left in the lurch, as has been the case for most previous titles that Rockstar Games has launched. And that's by design, according to Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick. Image via Rockstar Games "Rockstar always starts on console because I think with regard to a release like that you're judged by serving the core," Zelnick said in a new interview with Bloomberg . "Like really serving the core consumer. If your core consumer isn't there, if they're not served first and best, you kind of don't hit your other consumers." So, PC gamers aren't a "core" consumer in the eyes of Rockstar, apparently. But you can bet that, within a few years, GTA 6 will eventually come to PC with up...
