Followingan intense contest modethat brought some real difficulty back to the title, Crota’s End is now fully accessible. Naturally, Guardians who remember conquering the Raid when it first debuted may feel confident taking on whatever the reprised Raid can muster. But there are enough differences, alongside some new mechanics, that warrant a pause and a little understanding before rushing headlong into the reprised content....

I can’t speak for everyone, but — SCREW IT — I’m going to speak for everyone:South Park: The Stick of Truthwas the best part ofMicrosoft’s press conference. Even as someone who fell out of love with the show long ago, I’m very excited for Obsidian’s perverse, manic RPG.

Did you like it? Well, it didn’t have its ownFinal Fantasy VII Remakemoment, but I for one enjoyed Microsoft’s game-filled E3 conference this year. Microsoft did what it needed to do after touting the Kinect and the “all-in-one entertainment system” angle for so long — show us games (42 of them). We got some real exclusives, some timed/console exclusives (love that marketing speak), and some 4K/HDR exclusives, but a number of them looked pretty great, and the ID@Xbox program is thriving well enough....

Fans have set up a petition (470 sigs and counting) in a bid to make Sega change the current Sonic design to something more reminiscent of the Genesis era....
Jacob Wackerwas your average teenager, just spending time with friends at camp one summer. As he dove into the lake, Jacob hit the lake’s sandy bottom. Unable to move, he began to slowly blackout. When he awoke, Jacob was pulled ashore and found out that he was paralyzed from the collarbone down. But Jacob was far from letting this accident stop him from doing what he loved.

While running into dead ends is one thing, being a few steps away from unlocking your next room is an entirely separate challenge. Fortunately, you can get more steps with the right rooms. Every room you draft has a specific purpose, from making your journey slightly more difficult to giving helpful buffs and knowledge to carry over in future days....
Risk of Rain Returnsis adelightful contemporary upgradeto an old indie classic, remastering everything good about the original and upgrading it insome very meaningful ways. What’s really interesting, however, is thatReturnscame with a secret character, and the Strange Battery is the key to unlocking it. Whereas all the otherRisk of Rain Returnsitems work within the context and confines of a single run or playthrough, the Robomando’s Strange Battery is entirely different.
