Apex Legends: 5 Things We Want In Season 4 (& 5 Things We Can Lose)

The classic remake totally revitalized our love for the game and series overall. Pretty much everything about it was well-executed... and, I mean, c'mon. The addition of the beloved Tofu Survivor should be enough to make any Game of the Year l

Her ultimate ability "rolling thunder" is a powerful airstrike which operates as a power area denial style move. Forcing enemy teams inside of buildings its an excellent tool to prevent enemies from approaching your team or using a common choke po

In Fallout 4, players get a handful of options when it comes to companions and Nick Valentine is commonly selected among Fallout fans. Nick Valentine is a synthetic private detective. A robot paired with the job of a detective and that name is undeniably cool. Valentine can be used to hack into computer systems but insists on not hacking into other people's terminals. After all, he is a detect

What can I say? I'm a sucker for Pokemon . The jump to the Switch wasn't without its faults, yet I found myself enjoying every second of my time with the game. The Wild Area brings thrilling new content to the Galar region, the dialog is witty/corny, and the battles strike the sweet spot of being too easy and aggravatingly difficult. Many games might be more technically advanced, or tell a better story, but there isn't a game this year I enjoyed more than the latest Pokemon advent

Might as well make crouching default: Players experience more benefits while crouching than ordinary walking. For instance, ADS during crouch is much faster, making Revenant’s hitbox much smaller. Not to mention, accuracy is boosted during crouch aims. Moreover, crouch-walking makes no noise, making Revenant the perfect ambus

While I loved playing every game in my top five, I put Control at number one because of the way it grabbed my attention and held it in a way that the other four just couldn’t. It was creepy and bizarre in all the right, unique ways. I’d obviously never want to actually venture into the Oldest House for real, but Control made it a joy to explore with its unsettlingly intriguing twists and tu

I have a lot of respect for Ninja. The man, alongside his wife, Jessica, built an a multinational empire by playing video games. I, on the other hand, spend most of my days in my pajamas, tweeting jokes and Photoshopping bad Apex Legends me

_ Apex Legends story guide Legends _ recently introduced a Firing Range where I can apply these tactics. Typically, I’ll spend 20-30 minutes at the start of each session exploring recoil patterns or experimenting with different sensitivities. Once I’ve tired of that, I’ll then head into games with dedication to specific weapons or weapon clas

After reading this chapter, I changed a bunch of in-game settings. I reduced my controller sensitivity from 3 to 2. I also changed my field of view from 110 to 70. Ultimately, my aim became more accurate, even if my actual movements were slower and weir

Kaleb Cross was considered one of the best assassins of the Mercenary Syndicate, courtesy of his laser-eyed focus on his targets. However, he soon discovered a harrowing reality: he was in fact a Simulacrum, with his consciousness integrated within a steel body courtesy of Hammond Robotics. What he saw as "himself" in the mirror was just an illusion. The real Kaleb Cross was truly dead, with the Syndicate and Hammond continuously reviving him after death and erasing his memories after his missi

Apex Legends made a powerful debut Q1 of 2019, EA opting for a bold "no marketing" tactic. Embodying the trends of 2019 by building on the popular battle royale genre, Apex Legends released on Windows, PS4, and Xbox One for free. Streamers contributed to the game’s success, but players stuck around due to the unique incorporation of ability-based heroes and a wonderfully addicting set of movement mechanics. Apex barely edges this one out due to Respawn’s slow-moving developmental support, but the fact that competitives and casuals alike have stuck around is a testament to the game’s impressive fundament

How could it be anything other than Slay The Spire (I say, knowing full well I almost put Tetris 99 in this spot)? After initial frustration, Slay The Spire's various baddies are like old friends now - they're familiar, I've learned their rhythms. The cards and relics aren't mysteries to me anymore. Its delightful weirdness is old hat. And yet I find myself returning to it time and time again because it's just so clever, and it makes me feel clever - when I pay attention to it, when I'm not zoning out and just enjoying the jour

Players who want to maximize Revenant to his full potential should pay attention to how this update reworks the rest of his sworn enemies. As an ability-canceler, Revenant needs to learn exactly how he can incapacitate his opponents in order to get the upper hand. And as Revenant, getting the upper hand almost always means jumping the gun on them - but how can players make this hap
