Saying that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy did ‘OK’ in sales is an understatement. The game outsold every release in June in just two days and was the top PlayStation 4 game for July in the US and Europe. With so much success in a single remaster, it’s absolutely no surprise if Activision decides to remaster other classic franchises, in fact, it’s likely. Our IP library is an asset that, when done right, can be very powerful.” Sure, this means porting – hopefully to the Nintendo Switch – but it

Sandberg will be the director for the DC film.

With the Nintendo Switch taking over the limelight, Nintendo has all but pushed the Wii U into the rearview mirror, and for people who have made the jump, there’s a good chance that the console is doing nothing but collecting dust. One modder, who goes by the name Banjo Kazooie has found a way to repurpose their old Wii U by turning it into a Windows 10 PC. The feat is quite impressive, and Banjo Kazooie has taken a few aesthetic liberties on top of the transformation as well, but the final prod

According to Take Two Interactive’s latest earnings call for Q1 2018, GTA V is killing it sales, and it’s all thanks to GTA Online. Just how well is GTA Online doing four years on?

So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the devs of one of the most popular games right now, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG), is looking to incorporate them into their game. Last week, it was announced that loot boxes would be available for purchase within PUBG, even going as far as to offer up skins based on the film, on which the game is based, Battle Royale. What’s odd, but not uncommon as of late, is that PUBG is a game that is still in Early Access, as in, it’s not even considered fini

Regardless of whether or not PC players rallied for Red Dead Redemption to release on PC after the game had a successful release on Xbox 360 and PS3 in 2010, Rockstar never did it. In fact, in 2015, one of the developers said Rockstar never even “seriously considered” a PC release for the game. With Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar and Take Two have the opportunity to finally bring the franchise to PC. During the Q1 2018 earning call, Drew Crum of Stifel, Nicolaus & Co., Inc. asked Take-Two’s CEO

Jon Favreau, the man that brought the live-action adaptation of The Jungle Book to life, has been at work on a live-action Lion King for about a year now. According to a report from Hollywood Reporter, Chiwetel Ejiofor is in talks to voice the villain in the live-action adaptation of the Lion King. Yep, that means Ejiofor is in the runnings to play Scar. You might recognize Ejiofor as Mordo in Marvel’s Doctor Strange or as the lead in 12 Years a Slave.

It looks like we might be seeing Spotify hit the Xbox soon! Larry ‘Major Nelson’ Hryb, the Director of Programming for the Microsoft gaming network Xbox Live, has been spotted using the app, specifically listed as being ‘for Xbox’.

Now it appears as though Nintendo may possibly be applying the same level of thought to Super Mario Odyssey. The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) which has typically given Mario titles an “E” for everyone, has rated the forthcoming Odyssey game with a 10+E, as in for everyone over 10 years of age. First, no Mario game is what you’d call “violent.” Mild language? Super Mario Odyssey is the first Mario game to feature Mario in a city filled with humans, not just Koopas and Goombas.
