The Epic Games Store is giving out the cosmetic-content-packed Celebration Edition of Battlefront II until January 21 It’s worth jumping through a quick hoop to claim a free copy ofStar Wars Battlefront IIright now. The Epic Games Store is giving out the (usually $40) Celebration Edition of the game until Thursday, January 21, so even if you already have the base edition on Origin, you may want to claim this anyway....

Those who’ve been using Valve’s Steam gaming client will know that it’s filled to the gills with social features, and though not all of them are all that useful, they are nice to have. Video sharing, though, hasn’t been stellar, and the new Steam Game Recording aims to fix this. Having just enteredits public beta testing build, Steam Game Recording is trying to be the single most feature-rich and comprehensive gaming video sharing platform we’ve seen yet....

We’re gonna need a bigger hard drive! It’s Sunday. Think of all the Sunday Funday activities you could partake in. You could maybe get brunch at that cute luncheonette down the street. Or, you could go for a dip in the local watering hole. All that to get prepared for the big monster truck rally tonight. I heard Grave Digger’s gonna be there. Or, look at these videogames you could buy and then possibly play....

#891 We may have gotten an accidental glimpse of the new Pokémon that will debut inLet’s Go PikachuandLet’s Go Eeveelater this year. I won’t lie: I feel like the way-too-young kid who couldn’t resist sneaking downstairs late at night to find his parents watchingA Nightmare on Elm Street. I’ve seen too much! The apparent leak comes from@Chrales, who spotted a pair of conspicuous icons inPokémon Go. He says “it’s labeled as Kecleon inPokémon Gobut Unity files are tagged with Pokémon 891....

Has anyone seen the newRambo? The film’s tagline is, “Heroes never die … they just reload.” The same can be said about the Virtual Console, as this week Nintendo releases not one, but two games, on the Wii Shop Channel. I’m reminded ofRambo, of course, because one of the titles this week is Taito’s shooter,Operation Wolf(NES, 1 player, 500 Points). If memory serves me correctly, this game wasn’t very good, so if someone would please download the title to see if it supports the Wii “light gun,” that would be great....

Video games are amazing, but there’s nothing quite like a great tabletop game. That’s why it’s always exciting when a big video game title likeDiablogets its own TTRPG, but that doesn’t happen often. I’ve spent enough hours trying to force various role-playing systems to carry the weight of my favorite game settings to know that some games should just get their own TTRPG already. Pokémon It’s genuinely hard to believe that there’s not an officialPokémonTTRPG already....

Anime fighter’s roster continues to grow Two more characters for Bandai Namco’s upcomingDragon Ball FighterZare expected to be announced to eager fans some time next week. The characters will be revealed during an episode of IGN’sNext Big Gameonline show. No date has been given for the airing, but the previous episode was broadcast on Monday. It is not known whether these additions will be a part of the launch roster, or among therecently-announcedDLC characters....

and adds a new one to the pile This week marks the second anniversary of the release ofUncharted 3.To celebrate, Naughty Dog has dropped a massive patch on the title’s multiplayer mode with a few dozen balance changes and other adjustments. A new, “Dry Docks,” map has been released for free and the cost to purchase all of the pre-existing multiplayer maps has been eliminated as well. I would think by this point that just about every sale of this DLC which was going to be made has already been transacted, so this makes pretty good sense to me....

Not like this! [Screenshot byAfro Deziak] Did someone use their monkey’s paw to wish for sprays inCounter-Strike: Global Offensive? As of this week’s update, Valve hasintroduced graffitito the game. It’s a light feature folks have wanted to see make a return for this installment, but the way in which it’s being handled is unfortunate (if also rather unsurprising, given the other money-driven hooks attached toGlobal Offensive). To acquire graffiti sprays, players will either have to 1) earn them as a weekly drop for ranking up, 2) buy a specific pattern on the Steam Market, or 3) purchase a community-made “Graffiti Box” with proceeds from sales then “shared among the community artists....

Unfortunately, not to ‘GUN GODZ: Legend of Yung Venuz: Originz’ Vlambeer (Super Crate Box,Ridiculous Fishing) is the vlambest. Onits website, the indie studio announced its upcoming PS4, Vita, and PC “roguelike-like”Wasteland Kingswould be renamedNuclear Throne. An employee of InExile (Wasteland) contacted Vlambeer, expressing concern over brand confusion with its upcomingWasteland 2. Vlambeer responded well. We’ve been through a lot of trouble with people riding on things of ours, and we understand that American trademark law is pretty strict in that not defending a trademark weakens it....
