Apparently, YouTubers can’t stop attempting to destroy the Nintendo Switch. The last durability test saw someone taking items of various sharpness to the screen (as well as fire) to test what the Switch could withstand. A new durability test made the Switch fly. YouTuber UnlockRiver.com decided to do a durability test with the Nintendo Switch that had the device dropping from 1,000 feet in the air onto a cement parking lot. It turns out that a 1,000-foot fall isn’t enough to entirely destroy a N

Just a few days ago, the European Steam Page appeared to have outed the release date for the upcoming modern retro-style Sonic game, Sonic Mania. According to an all-new pre-order trailer that dropped yesterday, that release date appears to have been accurate. Sonic Mania will be launching on August 15th, and pre-orders are officially open. It’s also worth pointing out that this pre-order trailer appears to allude to the rumored animated cutscenes that the game is supposed to have. If you want t

Sniper: Ghost Warrior has admittedly had one of the rougher launches this year, and almost all of it has to do with its many technical issues. While there is a good game lurking beneath the surface, it has proven to be difficult to enjoy across all platforms for different reasons. Today, developer CI Games rolled out a new patch, which they say was built from consumer feedback, and addresses a ton of issues across all three platforms. The update focuses on “game stability and bug fixing” with so

The Uncharted film has seen a recent push forward in development with the announcement of Spider-Man: Homecoming’s Tom Holland taking the role of young Nathan Drake, but there haven’t been too many announcements on the film since then.

In case a GameFly listing and two German retailers listing the game wasn’t enough, yet another retailer has listed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered for a standalone release. While a standalone release for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered has yet to be confirmed, the latest retailer who listed it might carry a bit more sway than its predecessors. Amazon Japan (found by Wario64) listed the game for a June 20th release on the PlayStation 4 and a July 20th release on the Xbox One. Thes

A rumor for Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has suggested how many characters will be available in the game at launch, as well as the notable characters that will be missing from the game. If the rumor is accurate, then Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite will feature 28 on its base roster at launch, with six characters joining the game as DLC later on (ultimately 34 characters will be available, 28 at launch and six DLC).

Middle Earth: Shadow of War is the follow-up to 2014’s surprise hit, Shadow of Mordor and all early indications are that it is aiming to evolve its systems on a much grander scale.

Each playthrough is designed to give you a different experience, adding to its replayability factor. Here’s a list

By now it’s no secret that publisher Square Enix is looking to sell off one of their subsidiary developers, IO Interactive. The studio just so happens to be the minds behind the Hitman franchise, which recently wrapped up a largely successful reboot of the franchise. With so much uncertainty looming over the franchise and the studio, there were rumors that the Hitman brand was staying with IO Interactive. The statement confirms that IO Interactive is working on another Hitman game, presumably Se

Introduction:Friday the 13th: The Game has been one of my most anticipated games for the last few years. The game has massive server issues making it so you can’t matchmake – which is an issue when the game only offers multiplayer. It’s really fun to brutally execute people and to hunt unsuspecting people down but it can also be a bit tedious.
