J. Allen Brack, president of Blizzard, is stepping down from his leadership position after the company’s reputation was damaged by explosive revelations about the apparently toxic and demeaning workplace culture that had been allowed to fester there. The company’s problems came to light after a lawsuit from the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing accused Blizzard of fostering a “frat boy” culture and turning a blind eye to sexual harassment and abuse....

The beauty of Pokémon games is that they offer lots of ways to play: you can try to catch ’em all like the slogan says or train to become the Pokémon champion. In the case of the latter, you’re going to need some strong Pokémon on your team. But which ones are the strongest? First, you have to determine what “strongest” means. For our list, we used HP, Attack, Special Attack, Defense, and Special Defense stats as the criteria....

The Witcher: Monster Slayer is coming to your mobile device soon. When it arrives it will use augmented reality tech to allow you to step into the boots of Geralt of Rivia. At least you’ll be able to pretend you’re the famous Witcher if it suits your fancy. Developer Spokko, acquired by CD Projekt RED back in 2018 is working on this officially licensed mobile game. Just when it is going to be launching is anyone’s guess....

The console wars! A yearly punch-up of massive tech companies that we all sit around and watch. It’s fun, and while this might not be the fairest of year to do this, seeing as how we are at the tail end of two of the biggest console’s lives, we still think there was a clear stand out in 2019. Nintendo was perfectly poised to have a bumper year, and it really did....

Sometimes a game just comes out of nowhere and seems to light the community on fire. Sales numbers boom, Twitch is filled with streams, and thousands of articles and YouTube videos flood the web. Nobody sees the dark horse coming, but everyone wants to saddle up when a surprising and fun game appears out of nowhere. There will normally be a few of these each year, but which one was our best Dark Horse game of 2019?...

After treading around the internet, we all know by now that passwords are the most important element while creating an account online. However, a recent report suggests that although, when you create an online account, setting a strong password should be a top priority, the username also plays a major part in securing your internet experience. Moreover, the report lists the top 200 usernames that most people around the world use....

Is it the M4? The RAAL? What are the best weapons? Ah, yes. The meta has finally been defined in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. It was only a matter of time until players finally found out what the most powerful weapons are. Note that the meta does heavily correlate with what is the most annoying to fight against. This doesn’t mean that you’re going to be outright better than people who can land shots easier, this is more to show what weapons are more consistent in all levels of play....

What are your picks? Yesterday, publisher Take-Two Interactive revealed their Q1 2022 Earnings Presentation, featuring many new details and what to expect from the company in the future, which included the release of 3 new remasters/remakes. Take-Two was responsible for the release of Mafia: Trilogy, released on September 24. 2020, a collection of the series three main installments, featuring remakes of Mafia 2 and Mafia 3, as well as a remake of 2002’s Mafia, in Mafia: Definitive Edition....

Our Hearthstone Tavern Brawl A Temporus Shift Decks post features some great lists to try when heading into this week’s Tavern Brawl! If you’re looking for some inspiration and help with deck building, this post should take you in the right direction! This is an interesting Tavern Brawl!

Techland recently held a Q&A session on Twitter and answered some interesting questions of fans on Dying Light 2, the upcoming survival horror game scheduled to launch in 2019 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. One of the most asked questions that came from the community was the size of the Dying Light 2 map as compared to the previous game, and to this Techland revealed that it’s 4 TIMES Bigger than the original game (the figure does not include the size of The Following DLC map size)....

You will loot plenty of valuable armor pieces and weapons in Minecraft Dungeons. Many will feel the same across the many swords, great hammers, bows, and armor types you loot in the game. What sets them apart is the enchantments attached to them. The enchantments make them unique and far more helpful as you attempt to make your way through the game. This guide covers the best enchantments you can find in Minecraft Dungeons....

Players running around The Cycle have a variety of weapons they have to choose from, though, they have to think ahead. Outside of the starting weapons, players need to acquire credits during their game to purchase one from the match’s store to call down to their position. If a player doesn’t get a starting weapon they like, they’ll never get to the higher-quality ones later on in the match. Because of this obstacle, players need to know what they want to use during the early game and have a variety of choices as the game progresses....

While all guns in all games have merit, I have a fondness for LMGs that I cannot explain. Maybe it is the impact of certain scenes from cinematic masterpieces like Commando, or perhaps it is just that they go bang a little louder, and a little longer, than other guns. Either way, it matters not, LMGs are fantastic fun to play with, and The Division 2 is no exception. In this guide, we will show you how to get the Pestilence Exotic LMG so that you can celebrate their awesomeness in the best possible way....

Does anybody have the time? The Division 2 returns its dynamic day and night cycle system that is operated by an in-game clock as we discussed in our guide about how to make it nighttime. You most certainly can make an educated guess on the time of day sometimes based on just how light or dark it is outside. However, there is a way to see exactly what time of the day or night it is in The Division 2 and this guide will explain just how you can find out....

The final neutral legendary from Hearthstone’s next expansion has been revealed. The second Boomsday Project livestream is happening right now, with a ton more cards from the set being revealed tonight. Harbinger Celestia is a four mana 5/6 legendary minion. It has Stealth, and after your opponent plays a minion once this is on the board Celestia will become a copy of that minion. This is really cool card design, and it might have some use as a combo disruptor, but it seems probably too passive....

The wait is almost over. The Last of Us released in summer 2013 as the swan song for the PlayStation 3 only a few months before the release of the PlayStation 4. While Sony still has a major game like Ghosts of Tsushima coming after, it’s hard not to see The Last of Us Part 2 as one of the PS4’s swan songs as well ahead of the release of the PS5 later this holiday season....

Even prior to the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in early March around the world, Nintendo announced what is known as an Expansion Pass for the game, essentially a season pass. This pass would include two different packs that were vaguely detailed at that time, but now they have officially revealed just what you can expect to find in the first DLC pack that will be coming sometime this summer....

I’m sure you’re all curious to know who will be handling your preciousssss. NACON and Daedalic Entertainment have announced that they will be co-publishing the upcoming game The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. With a franchise as big as The Lord of the Rings, the expectations from hardcore fans will certainly be high. As a result, the two companies decided to collaborate to ensure that the game will not disappoint. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum will be developed for the Nintendo Switch, PC, Xbox systems, and PlayStation consoles....

The Outer Worlds is a traditional RPG experience many would expect if they were open up a game like Fallout. Obsidian Entertainment captured the spirit of the game series and added several of their unique twists to it. They have plenty of experience thanks to previous titles like Pillars of Eternity, Fallout: New Vegas, and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. Because it’s a roleplaying game, players want to know how many levels they have to go for their character to get maxed out....

Fortnite players may see cosmetics rotate through the Item Shop every day, but that doesn’t mean every item in the game returns to the shop on a regular basis. On rare occasions, some skins can either go years without becoming available or may never return again. Those who purchase these cosmetics will certainly get their V-Bucks’ worth, as rare skins can cause opposing players to cower in fear or help gain the respect of teammates....
