A new discussion among Call of Duty players has a purported explanation as to why the number of new maps added in recent Modern Warfare 3 seasonal content drops has dwindled. According to leakers like @TheGhostofHope, Activision has “taken” maps meant for MW3 seasonal drops and given them to Treyarch to repurpose as upcoming post-launch maps for ****** Ops 6, which is set to come out on Oct. 25.

Persona 3 Reload’s Episode Aigis (The Answer) DLC borrows some aspects from the base game, including the aloof attendant Elizabeth and her requests. One of them tasks you with Fusing a Sarasvati with Agilao, which isn’t entirely unfamiliar. The 21st Elizabeth Request is the start of her Fusion Series, and it’s on the easier side once you know what Personas to look out for. It’s like making a Mothman with Agilao all over again.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is still yet to get its first trailer, but Marvel has announced a prequel comic to coincide with the animated series. Despite the fact that Marvel's animated take on everyone's favourite web-slinger, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, is due out in about two months, we haven't seen all that much of it. Even still, an upcoming prequel comic run has been revealed that essentially serves as an origin story for this version of Peter Parker, with Marvel describing it: "In this new comic book series, you can take the very first steps along with him as he discovers his powers, decides to become a hero, and even picks out his name and costume. Now Peter’s gotta survive an entire Freshman year as a newbie ******-fighting vigilante…and if you think you know how this story goes, you are in for a surprise!" Presumably that last line is hinting that his origin story won't be so cut and dry, and that it'll differ from the usual Spider-Man affair. It has a strong team attached to it too, with Eric Gapstur serving as the artist for the five issue series, and Christos Gage attached as the writer. Gage is very familiar with Spider-Man, having written numerous comics, and Insomniac's games too. Read more View the full article

Helldivers 2's upcoming patch will be bringing with it some pretty beefy buffs to the RS-422 railgun, with Arrowhead having slid the *******'s damage numbers upwards in its efforts to deliver the kind of fun that the game's community has been asking for. The studio is offering little snippets of the notes for Patch 01.001.007 at the moment, building on what it shared in last week's blog post and building up to the update dropping on September 17. Following up on revealing its plans in terms of buffing flamethrowers yesterday, Arrowhead's latest revceal concerns the railgun, which was a very popular *******, especially early on in the game's lifespan when it was being used to take down armoured foes before being hit with an unpopular nerf.

MSI has unveiled a new lineup of X870 and X870E AMD motherboard options, which include an extra eight-pin PCIe power connector on the board, boosting the overall ability of the board to power your GPU, CPU, fans, and other components all at the same time. You'll still need extra power connectors to plug directly into your GPU, but these new boards should in theory cope better with the extreme power requirements of top-tier systems. While this new MSI feature certainly isn't going to be an essential one for the best gaming motherboards, it's one you might want to consider if you're combining some of the most power-hungry components in one system and are considering overclocking them too.

If anyone’s asked me over the past few years which of the big annual sports franchises generally offered the most bang-for-your-buck on a yearly basis, I’ve probably said NBA 2K. It’s not a hugely ringing endorsement - unless you’re interested in whichever minor tweaks to the formula are on offer, you can generally skip any at least a year or two of it or its competitors in the handegg or footsphere business without actually missing much. But, in a genre where the strength of the package, the sheer volume and depth of content aimed at letting you do a sports thing in various ways, is king, NBA 2K’s felt like LeBron. If he was constantly trying to sell you fake money. NBA 2K25 is just as big as its notoriously girthy predecessors, clocking in at about 133GB on my PC, which is in the ballpark of Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3, both games that are noted for their hugeness. What you get for surrendering all that hard drive space isn’t a sports game so much as it is several smaller games that’ve combined into one giant mecha-sports thing. Like if you told Shaq, Kobe, and Phil Jackson to stand on each others’ shoulders. Read more View the full article

Every once in a while, an offer comes across my desk you need to hear about. We all love a good saving but oftentimes it's for something you probably weren't going to buy anyway. You can still spend a fair bit, too, adding to that ever-expanding backlog. Then there's the Steam bargain bin: sales so cheap I wouldn't be doing my job right if I didn't at least tell you about them. This is where The Crew 2 comes in.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's co-op game mode is divided up into missions, each a unique level set in a particular location and with a particular focus. Played linearly, each mission is like a chapter in Space Marine 2's story, focusing on an individual battle in Lieutenant Titus' military career from beginning to end. Between missions, players have the opportunity to gear up, swap between Space Marine 2's six character classes, and perform other acts of character maintenance in the game's hub area aboard the Battle Barge.

Space Marine 2 has broken free from the shackles of its Warhammer 40,000 setting and made inroads into the gaming mainstream, and that means there are plenty of players new to its grim dark far future. For them Space Marine 2 is a somewhat bewildering experience, as it leans on much of the lore that Warhammer 40,000 owner Games Workshop has built over decades, with hundreds of novels, rule books, and magazine articles fleshing out the background fans know intimately. Warhammer 40,000 fans have enjoyed seeing newcomers react in shock at just how grim and dark Space Marine 2 is. And it’s not just the extreme gore, mass ******, and terrifying alien enemies that appear in the game either. Perhaps the most disturbing element of Space Marine 2 that newcomers are seeing for the first time are lobotomized *******. In Space Marine 2, I really respect how cherubs are one of the first sights to see when on the barge. It's a good tone setter for those who don't really know what they're in for [Hidden Content] — Iggy (@IgnacioVitalis) September 8, 2024 A tweet from Forbes writer Paul Tassi, below, sums up the reaction to Space Marine 2’s winged *******, who seemingly fly about the Battle Barge, the spaceship on which the Space Marines live and plan their missions, performing monotonous busywork. uhhh what [Hidden Content] — Paul Tassi (@PaulTassi) September 9, 2024 On the face of it, the apparent “good guys” of Space Marine 2’s story have lobotomized ******* cleaning up their mess. Sound messed up? Welcome to Warhammer 40,000’s Imperium of Man, a fascist regime always on the brink of extinction and an extreme vision of the far future in which pretty much anything goes. Warhammer 40,000 is intended to be grim and dark, and so stuff like this is par for the course (lobotomized ******* aren't close to being the most disturbing thing in the setting, if you fancy some light reading, check out what the Drukhari get up to in their spare time). Space Marine 2's far future is a truly ********** place to be, a place in which countless humans **** every day from all manner of horrors, be those alien, ******, or humans themselves. Humanity, bogged down by excruciating bureaucracy and religious fanaticism, has collapsed. There is no respite, no joy, only inevitable ******. With that in mind, Warhammer 40,000 fans are used to things like a “lobotomized ******* menial cyborg flying baby,” as X/Twitter user ChronoTheHarlequin pointed out. The thing is, with this one in particular, it gets even weirder. Seeing tweets like these kinda make me realize how numb I’ve gotten to the weird ***** in 40k. “Lobotomized ******* menial cyborg flying baby” isn’t something I’d even flinch at now [Hidden Content] — ChronoTheHarlequin (@ChronoHarlequin) September 10, 2024 As the unofficial Warhammer podcast Adeptus Ridiculous clarified, most of these things aren’t actually lobotomized *******. Most are built from the ground(?) up as flesh automatons with computers for brains (A.I is banned in the 40th millennium because of... reasons). Why do they look like *******? Apart from Warhammer 40,000 being all heavy metal and gothic, according to the lore, it’s for “ceremonial purposes.” Don't worry, most of them are not actually lobotomized *******, most are built from scratch as flesh automatons with computers for brains and just made to look like ******* for ceremonial purposes. Most of them. [Hidden Content] — Adeptus Ridiculous (@AdRidiculous) September 11, 2024 I’m loving Space Marine 2 and its attention to detail. The developers at Saber clearly love Warhammer 40,000 and made the effort to capture its oppressive, soul destroying atmosphere. I’ve particularly enjoyed the flavor dialogue you hear from the humans who are charged with keeping the Battle Barge afloat. Some bemoan a lack of sleep because of how hard they’re forced to work. Others express concern at the prospect of making even a single mistake. Given the truly ********** galaxy in which they live, these chaps are the lucky ones. And don’t get me started on the servitors. We’ve got plenty more Space Marine 2 coverage, including details of its first patch, its post-launch roadmap, and the upcoming addition of class matching for co-op, after players found themselves locked in a class standoff ahead of Operations mode missions.

When is the next Supervive playtest? Theorycraft Games is aiming for the stars with its debut release. Supervive is part hero shooter, part battle royale, with a sprinkling of everyone's favorite MOBA on top, as a treat.
