It's been a long time since a game came along that put this much effort into its bathrooms. Working sinks and flush mechanisms, yes—standard fare. We've taken those for granted since 1998, but GZDoom FPS Selaco goes the extra mile: out of its dispensers come absurdly well-drawn and animated ******* paper sprites. Next to its sinks are bottles of ******* cleaner, and yes, both can be flushed down the cistern. Flushing the cleaner even makes the ******* explode. It goes without saying, then, that this is GOTY material... Read more.View the full article
Call of Duty: MW3 players think they’ve spotted a trend: new season weapons tend to be extremely powerful compared to older weapons. This has led to a major discussion on ******* power creep, and community opinions are flocking in. On June 2, a Reddit post surfaced discussing ******* power creep. The original poster showcased that the SP-R 208 only has an effective damage range of around 13 meters. This is a drastic difference compared to the damage range effectiveness of the new Kar98k, another Marksman Rifle, which is 50.8 meters. However, as one optimistic Reddit commenter on the post pointed out, this range is likely because the SP-R 208 has higher damage overall—which I can confirm is correct. View the full article

Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge The leaked lineup for last week’s PlayStation State of Play surfaced shortly after the event was scheduled on YouTube. This has added to concerns over the kind of access Google employees have to videos before they go live, an issue highlighted in recent reports from Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson and 404 Media. One incident, as noted by Henderson, occurred in 2022 when KSI attempted to give away over $10,000 in Amazon gift cards. However, KSI later realized that all of the gift card codes had been redeemed before the video was posted, sparking an internal investigation at YouTube. The company reportedly started a similar investigation after the trailer for GTA VI leaked, but it’s not clear whether it’s related. All of this ties into what...

Geoff Keighley - owner and founder of Summer Game Fest - has preemptively settled expectations for the live show in terms of big AAA reveals. In a personal Q&A livestream, Keighley states that it has been a quieter year for the industry, and that the show would focus on games that have already been announced rather than those set for a release date in 2025 and beyond. As such, he warned those watching not to expect a "one more thing" reveal - typically a mic-drop trailer left for the end of the Summer Game Fest showcase to end the event with a bang. The Summer Game Fest live show is set to take place later this week on June 7. Starting at 2PM ET / 5PM PT from the YouTube live theatre, Keighley stated it would run for around two hours in total, and would still be packed full of trailers and other surprises. If you're a fan of keeping up with the latest in the video game industry, it's still worth a watch even if bombshell reveals aren't to be expected. Read more View the full article

Enlarge / Sony's marketing image for PSVR2 on PC. (credit: Sony) [/url] It doesn't seem like PlayStation VR2 is having quite the same success as its predecessor, which was a runaway hit at a moment when public curiosity and investment in VR were at an all-time high. Nonetheless, it's one of the most advanced VR headsets available—tied to a tiny library on the PS5. That's about to change, as Sony has confirmed its plans to launch a PC adapter for the headset on August 7. It will cost $60, and it will, at a minimum, let PSVR2 owners play a large library of SteamVR titles, provided their PCs meet the minimum specifications. Sony's blog post about the adapter says players will need a Steam account, so it's unclear how or whether you can use the headset to ***** into PC VR experiences through various channels besides Steam.

It has been months since Tekken 8 director Katsuhiro Harada was made painfully aware of fans’ grassroots movement to get an official Waffle House stage in the long-running fighting game series. After having received tons of information about the ********* Southern Diner chain via memes, viral videos, and earnest replies from fans, Harada is still baffled at the “culture” of Waffle House. I have already received a lot of… no.. tons of information from everyone about this store before, but let me ask one question from a different angle this time. Why do fights like this between waitstaff and customers happen so often in the restaurant? I have never seen plates… [Hidden Content] — Katsuhiro Harada (@Harada_TEKKEN) June 3, 2024 Yesterday, Harada took a different approach to his inquiry into why fans were so adamant about a Waffle House Tekken 8 stage. Instead of asking who and what Waffle House is, as he did at the end of March, Harada asked his X (formerly Twitter) followers why fights happen so often at Waffle House to warrant its unrelated fame as the unofficial ********* battleground. "Why do fights like this between waitstaff and customers happen so often in the restaurant? I have never seen plates and chairs flying around like this, especially in Japan (and the composition is not customer vs. customer, but customer vs. waiter),” Harada wrote in a quote retweet of a Waffle House ****** video. on X. “I don't think it is simply because it is ‘open 24 hours and there are many drunks.’ What kind of culture is this?" Why do fights like this between waitstaff and customers happen so often in the restaurant? Harada went on to voice his stream-of-consciousness thoughts on Waffle House as the unofficial ********* fighting battleground by admitting he wouldn’t be able to grasp its status in America even if he took 70 business trips to the States. "I need to learn more about ********* society," Harada wrote.

With the new Dungeons & Dragons DLC in ***** by Daylight, some players are having trouble figuring out how to get the Rightful Owner achievement. We’ll explain how to get this achievement easily.***** by Daylight: How to get the Rightful Owner achievementFor players who have the D&D DLC for ***** by Daylight, you now have access to the Survivor Aestri Yazar, the ******* Vecna, and some achievements. One of them is called Rightful Owner and it says to “Retrieve the Hand or Eye of Vecna and ***** or sacrifice all Survivors in the same match.” This is worded confusingly, but you can earn the Rightful Owner achievement in DBD by performing a Mini-Mori on a Survivor who has accumulated two ***** Stages.The Hand and Eye of Vecna are new rare items that Survivors can pick up during matches with Vecna. The reason why you may be confused by the wording of this achievement is because simply ******** a Survivor who has one of these items won’t allow you to ret...View the full article
17 years after release, Team Fortress 2 still has a devoted fanbase—one that keeps the classic team shooter in the upper echelons of Steam's concurrent player rankings. And today, through an online petition for the #SaveTF2 campaign, over 140,000 members of that fanbase are declaring they've had enough. TF2 has a long-standing **** problem. Official matchmade servers are rancid with bots, and they aren't just headshotting your team's Heavy with inhuman precision or flooding in-game chat with hate speech. According to the #SaveTF2 site, they're also a vehicle for doxing and targeted harassment. "There should be a zero-tolerance policy relating to this kind of conduct," the site says, "and Valve needs to be held accountable for persistently refusing to acknowledge it." This isn't #SaveTF2's first rodeo. The campaign emerged in 2022 to demand that Valve address TF2's long-neglected **** problem. Valve responded to the ensuing wave of support and public outcry, implementing a series of anti-cheat fixes throughout the year that culminated in a biblical-scale purge of ****-hosting accounts. By July of 2023, TF2 was enjoying a renaissance, breaking its all-time record for concurrent players. But the renaissance would be short-lived. Bots slowly reemerged, and without ongoing anti-cheat support to combat them, they've once again swamped TF2's official servers. #SaveTF2's current petition campaign has a simple goal: better, consistently supported anti-cheat measures for TF2, and "an open line of communication" with Valve as to how the bots are being addressed. At time of writing, the #SaveTF2 site has collected more than 140,000 signatures through its automated petition form, each accompanied by an email sent to Valve with a copy of the petition. According to the site, it's currently sending an email every second. The #SaveTF2 site also details a June 3 (that's today!) community operation for its public awareness campaign, asking TF2 players to share screenshots and video proof of the **** plague on every social media platform with the #FixTF2 hashtag. By doing so, the hope is to underline the scale of the **** problem, "to transform this perceived petty drama into the massive, game-defining scandal that it is." The language might be a tad over-eager, but I admire the sentiment. Realistically, devs can't support a game forever. Eventually the lights have to turn off—in an ideal world, it'd be after archivists and community server efforts have all the tools they need to take over. But in TF2's case, Valve is still using the game to sell cosmetics. If players can still spend money on the product, they're right to expect it to work. I'll say this for the petitioners: They know how to use nostalgia. The petition site is lovingly crafted in the style of the hype pages Valve would release ahead of TF2 updates. Giving it a read took me right back to 2009, when I was eagerly combing the Classless Update write-up and dreaming of my very own tower of hats. With any luck, a day will come when I can return to 2Fort wearing my three hats at once, without being menaced by aimbots... Read more.View the full article

Being able to teleport other players to you as Gojo in Jujutsu Shenanigans is a great way to control the battlefield and chain together some combos.How to teleport other players to you in Jujutsu ShenanigansWhen I started playing Jujutsu Shenanigans, I saw the Lapse Blue move, tried to use it, and thought it simply didn’t do anything worthwhile. This was strange but I was having too good a time using the other skills, so I never thought about it.However, the Lapse Blue move is exactly what teleports other players over to you. When you’re looking directly at an ****** in Jujutsu Shenanigans, and you use the Lapse Blue move, they’ll teleport over to you. And if you hit “R” when they’re before you, you’ll get to launch another hit.Screenshot: PC InvasionNote that this ******* does have a limited range, although it’s decent enough. This allows you some capacity to surprise your opponents if they’re focused on someone e...View the full article
