We have posted below the section which seems most relevent to these legal proceedings....

Spellocityis a new spelling game out for iOS devices for $.99 and while there areother gamesout in the market, this title may be more worth your time and the dollar that the devs are asking for it. Instead of drawing a line between letters to form a word,Spellocitypresents you with a wall of letters and lets you pick whichever you want in order to form words for points. There is evena demoup that you can try, if you don’t want to blindly throw money at people....

Where will it end, people? Got the weirdest case of deja vu… I had this feeling I was reporting on how the ambitious space sim titleStar Citizenhad broken another benchmark for crowd funding. A few weeks ago we mentioned howeager fans had already pledged $27 millionto Chris Roberts’ new project; now we’ve learned thatStar Citizenhas broken the $30 million mark. Now that funding has broken the latest goal, the reward for players will be an Origin 890 Jump, described as “an interstellar yacht” which makes my mind think of one of those massive ships you see Russian oligarchs lollygagging around on, with a hot tub and things like that....

Capitalism is coming for us all We’ve all grown accustomed to the hellscape that corporations have created for us over the past few years, which is why I’m so intrigued byMartha is Deadpublisher Wired Productions’ new narrative adventure game,The Last Worker. The title, developed by Wolf & Wood, will explore “end-stage capitalism” in a setting that’s “centered around our struggle in an increasingly automated world.” The Last Workerwill feature a star-studded cast of voice actors, including Zelda Williams (The Legend of Korra), Tommie Earl Jenkins (Death Stranding), Jason Isaacs (The Death of Stalin), Ólafur Darri Ólafsson (The Deep), Clare-Hope Ashitey (Children of Men), and David Hewlett (The Shape of Water)....

The new Xbox One S controller just released last week, but there’s already a pretty dang decent discount on it. While these controllers normally cost $60, they’re going for $11 off the very first time they’re on sale. Amazon has thewhite Xbox One S controllerdiscounted down to $49 today. This is the new one with Bluetooth functionality (meaning it can connect to PCs without the adapter) and the textured grip.We took a lookat one of these two weeks ago when our custom Dtoid-colored Design Labs controller arrived....

Add a splash of blue to your stabby-stabs Styx: Master of Shadowswas a really great, pure stealth game. Not only that, but as a prequel toOf Orcs and Menit did an excellent job of fleshing out Styx’s character with a surprisingly interesting story. If these new screenshots of the upcoming sequelStyx: Shards of Darknessare anything to go by, we’re in for another treat. They show a bit more variation in the visual design (colour!...

I can’t even A fellow by the name of egodbout2 has taken it upon themselves to recreateDiablo IIin the form of a project called “The Curse of Tristram.” But it’s not just any old fangame, it’s actually amodforStarCraft II. Impressive! What’sreallyweird to me is seeingDiablo IIwith a smooth framerate without any latency drops. For the first year of release I never actuallysawDuriel on-screen — my PC would lag so much when entering the area, that I had to just hold shift and queue up an ability and hope I won with a group of friends....

They’ll be easiest to find right outside of towns/points of interest Going alongside of the knight theme inFortnitechapter 4, season 1:dirt bikes! I know, it’s wild, butFortniteis often an amalgamation of tons of different relics, both past and present. Well, after searching multiple games for dirt bikes, we finally settled on a best place to find them. InFortnitechapter 4, season 1, dirt bikes can be found anywhere, but mostly outside of towns Like any vehicle, you can find dirt bikes nearly anywhere on the map: which can make for a frustrating experience if you’re looking to land and get some quests done....

In addition to the beer Well, it looks like Bethesda is pulling out all the stops forFallout 4next month. In addition to the $120 sold out special edition and the numerous other promotional items (including beer), you’ll be able to pick up Nuka Cola at Target when the game launches on November 10. This seems to be a rebranding of Jones Soda in the form of “Nuka Cola Quantum,” and Target does have an exclusivity deal on the item....

Are you the keymaster? Secret Modehas announcedthat it’s bringing Sumo Digital Academy’s revival of the Amiga almost-classicZool Redimensionedto PlayStation consoles on Jun 20, 2025. Zoolwas originally released in 1992 on the Commodore Amiga before being ported to other consoles. Despite its availability on different platforms, it’s largely considered to be an Amiga cornerstone. 2021’sZool Redimensionedwas a ground-up remake that bases itself on the Amiga version. It features widescreen support, which is a pretty revolutionary change, considering it was a game that would sometimes punish quick movements....

Total revenue up over a quarter on 2019 For most of us, 2020 was far too miserable to note. But one field thatdidsee an upturn in fortunes in the past 12 months – at least in a financial sense – is the U.S. gaming industry, which raked in a record-breaking total of $56.9 billion USD, an increase of 27% on 2019’s figures. These bank-busting numbers –published by The NPD Group– include dollar sales of $5....

Whenwe last looked atA Valley Without Wind, it was a strange looking top-down exploration game. With the latest video, it’s had a change of perspective, becoming a strange looking sidescrolling exploration game. The game seems to be looking all the better for it, too. While character animation could still use work, the game overall appears far more stimulating than it previously did. The game is still in the very early stages, so yet more dramatic changes could occur....

Still within the next ‘three years’ Changes are coming to the way Square Enix is structuringFinal Fantasy VII Remake, and most of it sounds good. Evidently Noaki Hamaguchi, who worked onLightning Returnsas a programmer and was the lead forMobius Final Fantasy, is now leading theRemake. As of this past week Hamaguchi is aggressively seeking effects designers, a programmer, and battle and level planners to help work on the project, and while development “was” focusing on external help, now Square Enix is “controlling everything,” which will lead to more of a massive scale and allegedly increase the quality of the game....
