I’ve been playing for an as-yet-unknown amount of time and nearing my 100th match mark, and through it all, one thing has become incredibly clear: Zapdos is crucial. The giant Electric-type bird seems key to almost every match I’ve played, and while that’s not an uncommon design choice for the genre,Pokemon Unite‘s Zapdos feels a little more game-changing than most....

Storming the Iron Hold While most dungeons inDiablo 4are purposefully farmed for speed, Iron Hold is not one of those dungeons. Speed-farming dungeons are typically reserved for simple layouts and a few quick and easy dungeon objectives. Speed farm dungeons typically includeCultist RefugeorSirocco Caverns.

It’s a mash-up ofThe Legend of ZeldaandBack to the Future:A Link to the Future. Get it?! The art was done byCaldwell Tannerafter a joke started over atHaloz.com. It is now in shirt form for $18....

What a nice gesture Knowing what I now know aboutMars: War Logs, it may end up being one of those titles that becomes a solid bargain-bin pickup. It’s on the right track: Spiders Studio has put out an update for the PC game which promises a better translation. Here’s an explanation from Focus Home Interactive director of production Luc Heninger: “The tight deadlines between the game release dates meant that the initial English translation lacked depth and contained a number of errors; it was then sent to the recording studio, making the job of the actors extremely difficult....

I was, however After following up on a comment legendary Nintendo designer Shigeru Miyamoto made about making a “bad game,”Kotaku got a fairly surprising answer: that game wasZelda II. Miyamoto confirms this outright stating, “I wouldn’t say that I’ve ever made a bad game, per se, but a game I think we could have done more with wasZelda II: The Adventure of Link.” He goes on to state the limitations of the NES as a reason for his personal failure, saying, “I think specifically in the case ofZelda IIwe had a challenge just in terms of what the hardware was capable of doing....

Someone in the PlayStation Blog comments also asked “Will it be 500 [frames per second]?” and that, hilariously, got an actual response from Sony Santa Monica. “I’ve never heard of a game that is 500FPS, but the team is targeting 60FPS,” said community strategist Aaron Kaufman....

Brawlhack community to recreate the upcoming PS3/PS Vita titlePlayStation Battle Royale All-Starsusing the game that inspired it. I doubt my challenge had anything to dowith this, but if it did, then… you’re welcome? According to the hackers, this project was created “To celebrate the ‘PlayStation Battle Royale All-Stars’ game, the copy of Super Smash Bros…“....

Deep Silver looking for feedback on other issues Saints Row: The Thirdrecently released for the Switch and it’s kind of a mess. Digital Foundry, experts at evaluating game performance,have declared itpossibly the worst performing game they’ve experienced on the platform, not to mention one of the worst evaluations they’ve ever done. It may boast a higher resolution than the last generation versions, but this isn’t even close to being an ideal way to experience the game....
