Speaking to Matt Thorson, creator ofCeleste(which just dropped last week), that release knocked it out of the park on the eShop....

The mouse switches between its standard function and the controller (as well as a “presenter mode” for those who have grown-up crap to do with their mice) at the push of a button and features two analog sticks, eight buttons, and a directional pad....

Dead Rising 2 trailer? Probably not, but this is still pretty cool

I knowwe cried wolf before, but that was for humor’s sake. That other stuff? Definitely not even close to looking real, and even Capcom gave us sh*t for posting that. This at least looks like something real, or the intro to something I’d like to play. Unfortunately, I don’t know how much faith I can put into this being actual leaked footage. We will just call it now: it’s a well-done fake…probably....

First Kratos, now Aloy is joining Fortnite

Sony is in again The last few seasons ofFortnitehave been extremely video game oriented. Kratos and Master Chief were two headliners from the last go-around, and Lara Croft kicked off this new season of the game. Now, Aloy from theHorizon Zero Dawnseries is joining the fray. It makes sense, given the “primal” theme of the season, and that bows are a big focus of the weaponry shuffle. As announced on theFortniteblog, Aloy will be a part of the game on April 15, and will arrive with the lore-heavy blaze canister back bling, a spear pickaxe, aGlinthawkglider, a Shield-Weaver wrap, a Heart-rizon emote (which creates a wireframe heart in the same vein as some of the narrative briefings) and a bundle-only loading screen....
