The path to redemption Niantic have announced that the Pokemon GO Fest will be making its second appearance in Chicago this Summer. Players can gather in The Windy City (that’s Chicago, right?) to make friends, enjoy the sun and, of course, catch ’em all. It isn’t too hard to remember last year’s GO Fest, held at the height of the Free-to-Play game’s popularity. Unfortunately, it was anunmitigated disaster. No hyperbole. Connections slumped, bandwidth ran dry, bugs arose and stage shows were reduced to awkward fumblings as disheartened, out-of-pocket players rained scorn on the hosts....

Street Fighter Skin Pack now live Destructoid isn’t really much of aMinecraftwebsite. And, to be honest, I’m not aMinecraftplayer at all. I’ll tell you what I am though: Juri’s long-suffering #1 fan. And as such, when my gal shows up in other video games, I’ll be reporting on it under a thin veil of Important Gaming Newz. So what we have here is a brand newMinecraft: The World WarriorDLC pack, which is now available to purchase for Mojang’s blockbuster (multiple meanings y’see?...

Eerily accurate Having photorealistic graphics doesn’t inherently make a game good, but it sure is nice to look at. TheNeed for Speeddevelopment team shared these photos by way ofan interview from Speedhunters, and they look pretty fantastic. For reference, the game is on the left, and the real photo is on the right. It’s interesting when developers and publishers alike become obsessed with the latest tech, as they tend to forget about a lot of other facets of the project — like gameplay....

Any day now for the Pro, just like the last three years Switch Pro rumors are on overdrive. I mean…Nintendo rumor mongering is kindaalwayshyperactive.But with outlets like Bloomberg getting on the train this year, it’s been a little more interesting than just random Twitter insiders saying “it’s coming” every month and then correctly “predicting” a first-party game announcement. Amid several rumors from the game writing circle that Nintendo plans to announcethe Switch Prosoonish (even before E3!...

Cut ninjas in half while you wait Steam Early Access has changed the way a lot of people think about game development. As it turns out, a lot of consumers are more than happy to play a game that’s not finished yet, as it not only gives them more time with the game, but it also allows them to give the developers feedback as they go. Devi Ever is working on that principal, but without asking the player to pay anything for her game in progress....

Insomniac calls the story an “extension ofRatchet & Clank: Into the Nexus” with “a lot of returning characters and planets” through the lens of the multi-dimension premise....
