With Capcom in third 2020 was a year…is the most basic statement that’s been said so far in 2021 on this site. But we did have a lot of great games! Some of them were delayed until the tail-end of 2020, and some into 2021. But there’s still a lot to celebrate, and Metacritic is doing just that, giving us a “game publisher ranking” chart for last year. The results are pretty interesting....
PC, PS4, and Xbox One this summer Game Freak (Pokémon,Drill Dozer) and Sega (Sonic Runners,Sonic Boom) are collaborating onTembo the Badass Elephant, a side-scrolling action game about a commando elephant who will seemingly level entire cities on his quest to stop the evil forces of Phantom. How does he sleep at night? On top of a pile of peanuts, probably.Tembois slated for a summer release on three platforms that aren’t the Wii U: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC....
Executive producer looking for input Mass Effectexecutive producer Casey Hudson has put the call outon Twitter: “Parsing through your thoughts on the next#MEgame. Would you be more interested in a game that takes place before the trilogy, or after?” I’m interested to hear what serious fans think in particular, since they would likely have battles or major events they’d want to see in game form. Having not delved into the expanded fiction outside of the trilogy, I’m leaning toward aMass Effecttitle which carries the franchise forward without, for the love of all things holy, somehow bringing back any familiar faces....
Fire Knight Queelign can be annoying inElden Ring, as he will invade you a couple of times if you are in the right places, but ultimately, he is a pretty pathetic figure. You will eventually find him in the Shadow Keep, locked away in the prayer room and feeling sorry for himself. Should you give Fire Knight Queelign the Irish of Grace or Occultation? You will be able to get different items from Queeling, depending on which Iris you give him....
Take note, everyone:thisis how you create a proper developer’s diary. In the embedded video above, we are greeted by EA Black Box’s Chris Parry, who proceeds to interview himself aboutSkate 2′s sparkling new storyline. Essentially, the city of San Vanelona was rebuilt as New San Van after disaster struck during the time between the originalSkateandSkate 2. Security has been stepped up by Mongo Co., and now all of the best skating areas are under heavy watch....
Ooh, yeah, we slicer-dicer, spud I liked the cut of this one’s jib from the start. The white, minimalist architecture with splashes of player-inserted color sort of held hints ofUnfinished Swan.The pre-built environment with its line-drawn aesthetic for objects in the distance brought back pleasant associations withGravity Rush,a favorite. It’s basicallyMinecraft, but for me. More navel-gazing, less tedium. Clean, enviable design. Bokida, which you can presently play for free, in-browser via that link, features a smooth building mechanic that allows you to place blocks one and a time or effectively paint 3D structures by holding down the mouse....
Smite 2‘s early access has attracted a fair number of players across different platforms, and there is a healthy amount of choice available in the game. Like Smite 1, you’re able to play different roles based on your preferences, and each one has various options. The free-to-play beta phase already has over 50 Gods available, and some of them are simply better than the rest. The tier list will help you to zero down on your mains, and invest your resources in a judicious fashion....
Dead by Daylightremains among the most fun games to play, and the only game with the Killer-Survivor dynamic that allows you to live out your favorite slasher horror flick. However, its many perks, though oftentimes good, seriously need a major overhaul to make them more fun, useful, and balanced. Both Survivors and Killers have countless perks that are so horrendously bad that they’re nothing more than a meme. Whether it’s keeping youBrokenfor half the match or being borderline useless and contradictory, so manyDBDperks just need a good, long, hard revamp....
Bioware’s Star Wars RPG now out! Knights of the Old Republic, Bioware’s cherishedStar Warstitle, has just been released for the iPad. The much loved title is 10 years old which seems good enough reason to receive an iOS release.IGN have managedto get their hands on the port, which they say still holds up despite some issues with character movement. The iPad version will cost you $9.99/£6.99. I’m keen to try this version ofKOTORout (after “borrowing” my dad’s iPad first); I have concerns about how easy your character control will be but to be honest I’m almost expecting to have those issues from a touch screen port....

BUT I DID. I LAUGHED AND LAUGHED. During Sony’s CES press conference, Sony Electronics President and COO Mike Fasulo went on about the newest resolution buzzword, 4K. 4K movies, 4K cameras, 4K Netflix streaming, 401Ks, 4 K9 units ripping apart a violent offender. They were all talked about. Fasulo then casually mentioned that, “Sony is at the forefront of 4K…” Theforefront? Thefourfront?Four kay!That’s advertising synergy. No one else laughed, though....

Check out everything Destructoid did today Now that all that April Fools’ Day hullabaloo is over and done with, there was a lot of legitimate stuff going down today. Most of it less fun, granted. Back to reality. The reality in which I’m still reeling from GDC illness and can’t even numb myself with baseball because I don’t have cable. Oh, man. I made myself sad. I suddenly appreciate April Fools’ Day a bit more than I did yesterday....
