A bug that appears to be affecting Modern Warfare’s Battle Pass across both the main game and Warzone is preventing players from leveling up. Call of Duty: Warzone might have enjoyed a successful launch, during which more than 50 million players tried out the game, but it hasn’t been void of issues. Seems as if the more people are playing the game, the harder it is to please them all. Between removing Trios, getting rid of bounties, and a handful of other unpopular decisions, Infinity Ward must feel like it is carefully walking through a minefield right now....

Last month, in an ironic twist of events, Watch Dogs: Legion, which is all about being a hacker, has been hacked and had its source code stolen. Fast forward to today, and it seems that the people responsible for the attack have kept their word and leaked the stolen code online. According to multiple reports, ransomware group called Egregor is responsible for leak, and previously claimed to have obtained access to the internal networks of companies Ubisoft and Crytek....

Have you ever wondered who exactly is the announcer behind the character select screen of Super Smash Bros? Well, after pondering over the evidence, we’re pretty certain it’s Master Hand. Evidence #1: The Voice Actors Since the beginning of the Super Smash Bros. series, there has been an announcer. In a dominant, almost godly voice, this personality speaks each character’s name. In Super Smash Bros. on N64, it was Jeff Manning, Dean Harrington was Melee’s voice, Pat Cashman voiced Super Smash Bros Brawl, and for the last two, it has been Xander Mobus....

What Does Data Janitor Mean? A data janitor is a person who is designated to take large amounts of big data and condense it into information that businesses can act upon. Most data janitors spend their time looking through large amounts of data and interpreting it. Techopedia Explains Data Janitor As more businesses make use of big data, being able to make sense of the data is an important skill. This is where data janitors come in....

The Witcher in all its versions has a world chock full of monsters, heavily influenced by Slavic mythology and fairy tales. While gamers and book readers are already familiar with the creepy stuff we’ve seen in the Netflix show, new fans may have found themselves scratching their heads pretty often and saying “Kiki-what?” But even if you’ve fought, killed, and skinned them all throughout the games, you may yet be surprised by the source of inspiration for the monsters....

The whacky solar system players can explore in The Outer Worlds holds many different weapon varieties for the lone colonist to wield during their adventures across the Halcyon system. From the simple Tossball Blocker to the ever-reliable Plasma Rifle, there’s seemingly a weapon for every occasion, though none hold a candle to the elusive Science Weapons. Taking the outlandish gameplay and turning it up to eleven seems to be the sole purpose of these hidden gems, as they all have a simple yet ridiculous effect that is always a blast to use....

When Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds landed on Xbox One, PS4, and PC last year, it was applauded for its fascinating narrative, branching story and gameplay, and refined FPS mechanics. It’s been known for a while that the game would get a later release on the Nintendo Switch, and while it was suspected that it wouldn’t perform quite as well, a new preview illustrates that the Switch port may be less than recommended for those with other consoles....

Obsidian Entertainment’s upcoming first-person RPG Avowed is set in the Living Lands, a frontier island in the north of the world of Eora. Eora is the setting of the studio’s previous Pillars of Eternity games, though none took the players to the diverse hills and valleys of the frontier. Eora is packed full of warring nations, different races, and religions which vary in intensity from casual observation to full-on holy war....

The Sims 3: Ambitions has been touted as one of the best expansion packs in the game, in part due to the supernatural appeal of its Ghost Hunter Career. Now, The Sims 4 has followed suit with the Paranormal Stuff Pack, providing an alternative interpretation of Ghost Hunting that has been newly dubbed Paranormal Investigation. Both packs share a lot of similarities, including haunted house lots and a myriad of spectral beings (both Sim and spirit) to interact with....

Although it never truly went away, the first person puzzle genre grew in prominence thanks to Portal, a hilarious and smart game from Valve that is now largely regarded as a classic. Already award-winning, The Talos Principle from Croteam takes more than few cues from Valve’s innovative puzzler, but also blends elements of games from the “walking simulator” genre like Gone Home or The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, encouraging players to explore the environment while solving a multitude of puzzles....

This The Walking Dead review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead Season 11 Episode 9 For all the good that can be achieved with scale in an action setting, there’s nothing like a down-and-dirty scrap for survival. The Walking Dead does big battle scenes well, especially given the limitations of a television budget and shooting schedule, but when the show narrows focus and attempts a more restrained combat setting, be it a one-on-one knife fight or one survivor versus a crowded stairwell of walkers, the technical prowess of the creative team and the show’s stunt team and second unit team really come through....

As gamers, we kind of tend to take gaming for granted. At the end of the day, our [insert favorite console here] will be there for us to help us forget the stresses of the real world, and instead focus on killing baddies or beating the next level. But in the current circumstances, where nearly all extracurricular activities are canceled and places of gathering closed, gaming is a near necessity for those who prefer the made-up worlds of gaming to those of books, shows, or movies....

Well, that was shit wasn’t it? 2020 flew by in a haze, considering we’ve spent a large portion of it confined to our houses and eating biscuits. It was a year where ordinary people were hailed as heroes because they were forced to do their jobs under extremely difficult circumstances, risking their own health to save others. In the UK, people clapped for them while the government voted against giving them more money....

Although The Medium may not be a particularly long game, with most players being able to finish it within seven to eight hours, there are many aspects of the title that players can very easily miss, especially if they don’t intend to play the game more than once. Replaying The Medium may lack the mystery and intrigue that a first time playthrough has, but it also means that you will see things you missed the first time around....

Crazy Samurai 400 vs 1, also known as Crazy Samurai Musashi, is a highly divisive action movie. Some argue that it has one of the greatest action sequences ever filmed. Others, that it has the worst story (some would even say no story whatsoever) and is the most boring thing ever put to screen. The answer to this debate is subjective to the viewer based on what they value more. Either way, Crazy Samurai can be used as a case study for film students for a whole variety of reasons....

The Elder Scrolls series is known for being one of the biggest and most immersive RPGs of all time. When Bethesda announced the arrival of the fifth entry gamers couldn’t wait to get their hands on another 100+ hour adventure that would keep them on the edge of their seats — and they certainly weren’t disappointed when Skyrim finally hit the shelves. Boasting one of the biggest open worlds ever seen in video gaming, the fifth entry in the series was a massive behemoth of a title that is still regarded to this day as one of the best games of all time....

For many years, the classic sidescrolling beat-’em-ups of the late ’80s and early ’90s seemed to be a thing of the past. Few notable entries had cropped up ever since, as the heyday of the subgenre had seemingly passed, much like the shoot’em up or text-based adventure. But with the rise of indies, as well as a growing appreciation of retro gaming, came glimpses of a beat-’em-up renaissance. This is exemplified in a handful of titles like the sleeper hit Scott Pilgrim vs....

Like its predecessor, Borderlands 3 has a wide variety of boss fights to deal with. From toughened-up mobs to giant cyborg heads, the game offers a stunning array of bosses. Some of these boss fights can be pretty tricky to handle. These bosses have a huge pool of moves to pull from. And their moves can cover the entire screen and obliterate the player’s teensy health bar if they’re not careful....

Trials of Mana, Square Enix’s remake of the 1995 Super Famicom title of the same name, launched at the end of April to a warm critical reception. An action-RPG, Trials of Mana has six different protagonists, though the player only controls three at a time. These six protagonists all have their own individual stories, which come together in their quest to save the Mana Tree. To defeat the evil Benevodons, the heroes must use their special Chain and Class abilities, earned throughout the course of the game....

Live streaming platform Twitch has taken the fight against Article 13, an upcoming change to copyright law, to the European Parliament by hosting a Mario Kart tournament with two of its members. On February 26, Twitch streamers Pala and P4wnyhof played Mario Kart with MEP’s Tiemo Wölken, from Germany’s Social Democratic Party, and Julia Reda, from the Pirate Party, while discussing the wider implications of the controversial law. Though Article 13 was designed to help protect copyright holders, its overzealous wording has huge potential knock-on effects for platforms such as YouTube and Twitch....
