Biggest Video Game News Of The Week

On The Run soft-launched in select regions throughout Southeast Asia on April 22, 2020, and launched worldwide on Android and iOS on March 25, 2021. The game is free-to-play, though aggressive microtransactions have earned the game a bit of a sour reputation among critics and players. The game currently has a rating of 4.7/5 on the Google Play store with over 50,000 reviews, so it's safe to say that many are thoroughly enjoying the g


Hence it takes patience and aptitude to pilot someone like the Invoker. In the right hands though, Invoker can play nearly every role in the book (minus a pure tank). All 14 abilities ensure that he can be a jack-of-all-trades and still excel in each role he assumes. This hasn't changed much ever since he was introduced in the original D


As you can imagine, he doesn't play conventionally like most DOTA 2 heroes. He can function as somewhat of a tank by shifting in and out of existence. You have to make use of these tactically though as they can also double as his damage abilit


Warner is also credited as the director of Mass of Effect: Andromeda and the producer of the Mass Effect Trilogy. It's unknown whether or not Warner was involved with the Anthem Next project or if the project's cancellation led to his depart


According to sources (verified by TheGamer) Sony will shut down the digital stores on PS3, PSP, and PS Vita starting in July. It's expected that Sony will make an official announcement sometime this w


One particular element that people love about the port are how controls translated over to mobile, although some people have asked for the ability to customize them. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night advertises itself as being compatible with controllers, and even encourages their use for an optimum experience. Konami's Castlevania lore is rich and detailed, and a return to this classic game was a big win for a lot of mobile play


That's why it's a waste of time and energy auto-attacking creeps in your lane. Such a practice will also hinder your ability to perfect your last hitting skills. So excuse your vulgar teammates if they start calling you a noob in the chat as soon as you start attacking anything, they probably should have explained this or did a more articulate appro


These new changes represent an exciting step forward for competitive games in general. While the competitive nature of the eSports scenes are what draw people towards these games, they are often inaccessible for newcomers. With Valve taking a big step forward in addressing these concerns, this hopefully means that its other games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive will follow suit . Its stance on smurfing should also serve as an example for other competitive games as well. Games like League of Legends and Moba patch Notes Overwatch have had smurfing problems for years but since their developers rarely crack down on it, they turn off many potential newcomers. As Valve continues to improve its matchmaking systems, other games should take note of how Dota 2 has begun catering to a new audie

All PS3, PSP, and PS Vita content was removed from both the web and mobile store in October 2020. At the time, Sony confirmed that players would still be able to make game purchases directly through each platform. Reportedly, the PSP and PS3 stores will be closed on July 2, while the PS Vita store will close on August


So what’s the answer, encourage kids to find fun in single player titles? Well, the industry is coming for that too, with the push to go digital. There’s some consumer friendly aspects to this, most recently with the Xbox All Access deals, in which for a monthly subscription, you get the payoff of an Xbox Series X/S, and also get Xbox Live and Games Pass thrown in. This is a welcoming move, and opens up hundreds of games to families that have to budget their finances mont


However, there is a downside: the crusade against the preowned market. Gaming giants haven’t been shy about their dislike of consumers playing second-hand games, but the reality is this is the only way some people can game. Looking at my PS3 collection, just one out of 21 games I have was bought brand new - the (at the time) digital-only Life is Strange. So many games now see this digital-only run, and with Microsoft throwing all it can at Xbox streaming, it looks like this is here to stay. Going to CEX with your pocket money will be a thing of the p


Speaking of gold, one thing that actually hurts a player more than dying is getting their creep income denied. You can do this by last-hitting your own creeps who are about to die. Apart from denying them gold, you also deny them the experience given by your dead cre


Over the years, while Valve has made several attempts to make Dota 2 more beginner friendly, most ended up ineffective. The biggest problem was that there was no in-depth tutorial for newcomers to follow. Despite its complex mechanics, the in-game tutorial was underwhelming in design and as a result, newcomers would often learn to play through online videos or through their experienced friends. However, another problem in Dota 2 emerged with its poor matchmaking system . Once newcomers had learned the basics and played some bot games, they would finally queue in an actual 5v5 environm
