Screenshot: NCSoft You might imagine sword plus sword is a bit of a redundant pick, but by combining the Sword & Shield with the Greatsword, you can become the ultimate ass-kicking tank. This build allows you to not only mitigate damage exceptionally well with various defensive skills, but you also dish out the hurt using the Greatsword’s hard-hitting abilities. With the right setup, this can also be one of the best farming builds, letting you...

Ever since mass layoffs at Halo maker 343 Industries, fans have wondered what the future will hold for the famed sci-fi shooter. It turns out Microsoft still has big plans for Master Chief, and they involve multiple upcoming projects as well as the franchise making the jump to Epic Games’ Unreal Engine, the tech that powers Fortnite and a host of other Xbox first-party games. Firefight’s Back In Halo! What Is Firefight? 343 Industries revealed...

Back in February, we learned that Disney had invested an astonishing $1.5 billion in game developer Epic, as the two companies set out to create what they called “a new persistent universe.” Little more was known how this integration would work, but now an interview with Epic management by The Verge has made things a teeny bit more clear. The Week In Games: Co-Op Bug Blasting And More New Releases Obviously, Disney is already heavily...

Disney and Epic Games are still working on their big ole metaverse together, but one thing you can’t expect from it is Mickey Mouse running around with a gun. Earlier this year, the house of mouse made a whopping $1.5 billion investment into Epic to create a “persistent universe” tied to Fortnite, though unsurprisingly we’re yet to see the fruits of that labour. There have been plenty of Disney-owned IPs that have appeared in...

The Five Nights at Freddy’s movie sequel will apparently be “much bigger” and “scarier” which sounds like a recipe for your kid having nightmares again. Unless you are under the age of 13, I wouldn’t necessarily call the first Five Nights at Freddy’s movie particularly scary, but I will admit that there are a couple of scenes that would be a bit overwhelming for the younger viewer. However, in a recent interview with...

The ranch sign in the original Silent Hill 2 is iconic for its tonally off use of Comic Sans, but the remake changed it – apart from where it didn’t. Early on in Silent Hill 2, you come across Silent Hill Ranch, which in the original PS2 version uses the much memed upon font Comic Sans. Of course, way back in the early 2000s, Comic Sans being the meme font wasn’t a thing,...

It’s the end of an era at 343 Industries, as the developer is going by a new name, Halo Studios, with multiple Halo games apparently in development. Just yesterday, in this story about how Halo Infinite is getting a third person mode, I noted how the future of the series is a bit uncertain given its lack of appearance at Not-E3, and then someone at Microsoft decides to pull a prank on me...

Blizzard reportedly had adaptations of Overwatch, Diablo, and StarCraft in the works with Netflix prior to it filing a lawsuit against the streaming giant in 2020. This is according to Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, who’s still in the midst of promoting his upcoming book Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment, and has moved on from appearing on podcasts to hosting Reddit AMAs.

I would do anything for Moo Deng, but her popularity has astronomically raised the price of a Hippo Calf minion in Final Fantasy 14. You know her, you love her, it’s Moo Deng, Her, the it girl of the summer. Ever since I discovered her, I’ve not been able to stop thinking about her, she is a daily source of joy in my life that I will sorely miss when the internet stops...

It’s wild to think that Tekken has been around for 30 years, as long as the PlayStation itself. Though Tekken is now seen as one of the foundational IPs in the fighting game genre, that hasn’t always been the case. The erstwhile 3D fighting series has observed the rise and decline of arcades, endured five console generations, sat through the rise of PC gaming, and spearheaded international online play whilst cultivating a community of fighting...
