During the Xbox E3 2019 Briefing, Head of Xbox Phil Spencer revealed that in designing Scarlett, the company wanted the console to be "compatible across all the generations". Clarifying further, Partner Director of Program Management Jason Ronald told Windows Central more about the decisi

On the PC front, Steam doesn’t seem all that likely to offer up an all-encompassing sale like they do each summer. There may be some smaller seasonal event, but those looking for deep discounts on that platform will still probably have to hold out until either late June or early July to send more money Gaben’s

During the beginning minutes of the round, it’s all about grabbing loot, be it from the center of the map or plundering it from other teams’ base. One of the most effective strategies is to move about the map in teams of at least two people. That way, one player can provide support while the other grabs the supplies. If that player happens to be taken out, the covering player can (in theory) be right there to snag the dropped loot and run it back to the base. Running as a full team of four might seem like overkill, but overwhelming your rivals is just as effective of a strategy - at least until you start piling up the suppl

"We’re known—let me be humble for a moment here—we are known for treating gamers with respect...And I actually would [like] for us to also be known for treating developers with respect." Iwiński stated. He went on to say that "We’ve been working toward it for some time already...but we want to be more humane and treat people with respect. If they need to take time off, they can take time off. Nobody will be frowned upon if this will be requested." Badowski also highlighted that there are personal motivations for this change as well: "We are getting older, and most of the people who are responsible for crunch, they have families, little kids, and they feel exactly the sa

As anybody who’s spent time with the game will tell you, Red Dead 2 is a game of vast possibilities, dizzying scope and… well, it could be one of the all-around biggest games ever made, in terms of the world and freedom to traverse it. Is this really something the Switch could have handled? It’s all moot anyway because it didn’t happen and isn’t likely to, but there it

GameStop is also offering some considerable discounts on Nintendo Switch games . Though a buy-one-get-one-half-off deal may seem stingy when compared to most other sales, Nintendo has maintained a remarkably stringent control over the price of games for their new hybrid console, and fans have often rallied against the so-called "Switch tax" which has caused the console’s games to drop in price so rarely. Still, potentially snagging games like Super Mario Party , Mario Tennis Aces , Breath of the Wild , and Mario Odyssey for $30 may be worth it to Nintendo fans. The Japanese company is also slashing prices on Nintendo Labo kits, though, even at a reduced price, that still won’t appeal to every

"Any game from a key third-party that’s coming out now, typically that development started well before any conversations about Nintendo Switch… that’s how you wind up with a situation with Red Dead not being available on our platfo

While crunch may not completely dissipate, hopefully CD Projekt Red does stick to its word and end Cyberpunk 2077's development with a period that's light on stress like Marcin Iwiński is suggesting: "I think this is the commitment we’re ready to make today, and we’ll be listening to people. We definitely open a lot of lines of dialogue here, and we’d like to start with th

Pinkerton president Jack Zahran fired back at Take-Two with a letter that expanded his complaint to include an inaccurate or unfair portrayal of Pinkerton in RDR2 . "Pinkertons are seen shooting horses, shooting guns and firebombs into buildings where women and children are present, and as violent villains in the community. History tells a different story," Zahran wrote in his let

This probably comes as no surprise to anyone (and especially not to the people still playing the game), but Red Dead Redemption 2 is yet another hit for Rockstar Games. In the first two weeks of sales, RDR2 sold 17 million copies, which is more than the original Red Dead Redemption 2 collectibles|https://reddeadwildland.com/ Dead Redemption sold over the entire course of hist

Pinkerton plays quite the pivotal role in RDR2 . Andrew Milton and Edgar Ross play Pinkerton agents sent to track down Dutch’s gang. Along the way, they do a bunch of villainous things, like killing several gang members in a brutal firefi

Sales over at GameStop will be underway from the 7th to the 20th (nice!) of April, and, though there’s nothing exactly door-busting like their holiday Xbox 360 giveaway, there are some fairly significant deals on consoles and recent AAA games. The most attention-grabbing deal here will probably be there $40 PlayStation Classic offer. Sure, that throwback system didn’t go over all that well when it dropped last December, but at less than half of the suggested retail price of $100, this might entice curious consumers to check out Sony’s first mini cons
