‘Cheer for the Epic Games Store’ Although it’s been charging for all sorts of microtransactions for months (season passes, card packs, sleeves, and other cosmetics),Magic: The Gathering Arenais still in “beta” form. Rumors have been flying around as to when it would actually release in full, but thanks to a new announcement from Gamescom today, we do have some kernel of an idea. During the Opening Night Live presentation, it was revealed thatArenawould be coming to the Epic Games Store “this winter,” amid tepid cheers....

It’s something Telltale Games supporting Wii U? AMinecrafttitle on a Nintendo console? What’s going on? The studio is bringing its upcomingMinecraft: Story Modeto Wii U this fall, according to The Verge. The episodic adventure series is also slated for a bunch of current- and last-generation platforms, but up until today Nintendo wasn’t a part of the release plans. Nice to see that change.

As part of its 5.0 update, the Switch now has better social features (adding friends via Facebook and Twitter), more icons, better PC to Switch downloading (it queues faster), news filters, more secure PIN entry, parental controls for video capture, notifications for when pre-purchased software is ready, and Pro Controller grip color icons....

If you bought into the system knowing that you’d more than likely end up playing Nintendo-backed games and not a whole lot else, this isn’t your first rodeo. That reality was my expectation going in, and I continue to have no regrets. We had some good times together! And while 2016 saw a particularly slim release schedule as Nintendo shifted its focus to next year’s Switch launch, there were a few gems....

EnterSand Land Sand Landis an odd situation. Announced during the Summer Game Fest 2023 live show,Sand Landis an interesting pick for an ILCA-developed, Bandai Namco-published action-RPG adaptation. While many in the west are familiar with Akira Toriyama’s work,Sand Landisn’t quite as popular as, say,Dragon Ball. But that relative disparity is what madeSand Landinteresting to me. I’ve seen tons ofDragon Ball. I don’t know much aboutSand Land. And after playing a little bit of the latter at Summer Game Fest 2023, I’m curious to see even more of itsMad Max-like arid wastes....

Digital buttons, four microphone array, and more Chris Norden, Senior Staff Engineer, gave a developer overview of thePS4this morning at GDC 2013, with a section covering the controller and camera specifically. Those belly button-looking sticks? Norden says that the analog sticks are tightened up and are more precise than the PS3. Even the top surface material has changed, though he didn’t disclose the material used. The gyrometer is also more precise than the DualShock 3 or even theVita, and the touchpad has a tactile click....
