Porunga is one of the three gods inDragon Ball Sparking Zerowho can make your wishes come true, and quite literally. If you manage to gather seven Namekian Dragon Balls, you can summon Porunga to appear in front of you. Just like Shenron, he offers four different choices. While you’re free to choose any of the four options, it’s always better to opt for the best one when starting your adventures. In this article, I have ranked all four wishes from worst to best....

A new live stream talk show, filmed in front of a studio audience Tonight! A special event! I will be hosting a live stream talk show at Laugh Boston, starting 7:30pm EST. It’ll be a part of their regularly Player 1/2 event, but if it gets enough views, the show will become a reoccurring thing? That’s the plan anyway. We’ll be playing one ofthesethreegames, as determined by polling the viewers in Twitch chat as well as the live audience....

Trendy Entertainment has already bestowedDungeon Defenders IIupon its most invested fans. In fact, they’ve had it for more than a month now. “Invested” is the only way to describe those people — both financially and mentally — as that’s what it takes to pay anEarly Accessfee for a game that will eventually be free-to-play. But, those same fans get the privilege of seeingDungeon Defenders IIalong as it’s molded through the development cycle, and better yet, they’ll get to help shape it too....

Hey, remember that game from Irrational that we’ve heard nothing about and only know its codename of,Project Icarus? Well, we’re going to continue knowing nothing about it because according toGame Informer’s sources, it’s not going to be at E3, as many had hoped. Here’s where I’d usually fill you in on the game, but we know absolutely nothing except that Irrational Games (formerly 2K Boston), the developer ofBioShock, is making it....

Since its release, fans have been quick to question the amount of third-party support that the PlayStation 3 will eventually receive, worrying that Microsoft would herd most of the big names into its stables. Sony knows this, and that’s why they took the opportunity at their keynote during the 2007 E3 Media & Business Summit to let the world know who’s on their team. They’re hoping to pull gamers down off the fence and into their yard to play....

PS4 and PC/Mac/Linux players can get their pew pew on While at Indiecade last year, I played Dodge Roll’sEnter The Gungeonfor all of two minutes. You might think that I’m dismissing it and saying that it wasn’t worth my full attention, to which I’d respond, “That’s a really negative perception you have of me. You should get to know me, here, I’ll buy you a drink.” And then we’d be best friends/co-op partners inEnter the Gungeon, the game that I only briefly played because I had a horrible case of the stomach flu....

As part of the Xbox Games Showcase, Microsoft showed offa spiffy newFabletrailer. Beyond that, we’ve also learned we won’t be playing it until 2025. I didn’t really believe Uncanny Valley could be applied to video games until I saw the new Fable. That really hasn’t changed in this trailer. It’s largely cinematic, telling the story of one person who looks like they’ll be your mentor and another who’s maybe your foil....

A fairly comprehensive look at the nextFinal Fantasy Today’sFinal Fantasy XVIState of Play was centered completely on the upcoming RPG. It was easily themost extensive lookwe’ve had yet, showcasing everything from combat and bosses to RPG systems. Final Fantasy XVIfollows Clive, the protagonist, through three different parts of his life. Part of it shows him as a young teen, then again in his 20s, and later in his 30s. The warrior finds himself set on a quest for revenge across the world of Valisthea, dealing with the politics and powers of the supernatural Eikons and massive crystals along the way....

Fall to little pieces As I trekked throughFirewatch‘s forested western Wyoming landscape, one song kept entering and leaving my head, and it wasn’t one of the game’s serene, folksy acoustic guitar tunes. It was a song I listened to a lot in high school, but maybe didn’t understand the profundity of at the time. It’s about sadness and hope, insecurities and loneliness. It’s kind of a great analog forFirewatch‘s strongest quality....

$40 each, of course Just a couple months ago, GameStop was selling copies ofXenobladeforupwards of $90. The retailer has exclusive rights to the title, you’ll remember. This monopoly and price hike raised a number of issues, especially when it was reported that the store has a surplus of the game and was still hiking up the price. Just in time for the holiday season, it appears Gamestop no longer wants to Scrooge you....

Add some Supreme loot to your arsenal The fight is about to get a lot feistier.Gears Tacticsis coming to consoles on November 10,that much we already knew. That’s when Splash Damages’surprisingly goodGearsstrategy gamegets its first major content update. There are a few different talking points regarding the November 10 update, but the eye-catcher is the introduction of Jack the robot as a playable character. Jack isn’t some repurposed unit jammed into another class either....

This town ain’t big enough for the 100 of us As the popular battle royale genre continues to search for new locations, realms, and even eras with which to wreak its multiplayer mayhem, fledgling studio Team GRIT has announced its intention to take the Last Person Standing concept back to the wild west, with the announcement of a brand new hard-shooting free-for-all:Grit. Currently in development for PC,Gritwill see 100 varmints take to the dust bowls, saloons, gold mines, and deserts of the Old West, engaging in tense, gun-slinging mayhem in hopes of becoming the last desperado in town come sundown....

They’re mostly for hints and costumes Super Mario Odysseyhas amiibo support, and it’s mostly innocuous. Given that you may earn the costumes they unlock in-game by acquiring enough Moons and gold, and the system itself limits you to tapping three figures at a time in five minute intervals, it’s not as overboard as Nintendo could have gone. So here’s the rub. Basically, any amiibo known to man can be used to fuel the hint system that tells you the general location of extra Moons, the main currency ofOdyssey....
