The question is: are they worth watching beforeReload‘s release? For many, myself included, seeing your favorite franchises adapted into a new form is thrilling. So when I heard there were four full-length animated films based onPersona 3, I knew I had to watch them....

Exclusive to PS4, Xbox One, and PC Damn. I’m just now remembering thatGrand Theft Auto Vis coming to PC on January 27, not November 18 like the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 ports. IGN has a trailershowing one of the best new features for these re-releases: first-person mode. While the Rockstar employee playing is a total showoff and I think it would’ve been more true to the game had they crashed into that wind turbine, the mode looks good, as expected....

Uniform, streamlined Microsoft has already said that any dashboard refresh for the Xbox Series X won’t be drastic. That’s because Microsoft has spent the past few years trying to unify the Xbox experience, and that means making sure that everything looks familiar across all devices. This video is a visual elaboration on that concept. It shows the upcoming UI configuration for the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PC, and Android. It’s more or less the same because that’s the connected ecosystem appeal that Microsoft is gunning for....

Althoughscaling backWarhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium Onlineinto something which doesn’t require a subscription to play sounds more appealing to me than the alternative, the fact that this process even had to happen is worrisome. For me, much of that concern has to do with the unanswered questions surrounding the project. Speaking toRipTen, THQ’s Danny Bilson shed some light on the situation with his usual level of enthusiasm. “You’ve gotta remember there’s five years of development and careful thinking and testing and prototyping and then building involved there,” he says ofDark Millennium Online....

The wholeLeft 4 Dead 2boycott nonsenseseems to have faded, with butthurt “fans” of the game either slowly crawling back to Valve or quietly refusing to buy the game. Nevertheless,L4Dwriter Chet Faliszek has made it clear that the newLeft 4 DeadDLC, Crash Course, was not made to appease anyone, and was originally supposed to release before the big sequel’s announcement. “I think in this case we just didn’t message correctly,”explains Faliszek. “We didn’t make it clear thatLeft 4 Deadwas still going to be updated....

I can’t get over how well this remake turned out When I think back on my time spent withWonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, I feel a total sense of joy (except for clearing Mouse-Man’s secret room — that place almost broke me). It’s everything I’d want out of a remake, and despite never playing the original game back when it was new, I still had a great time.The Dragon’s Trapholds up in 2017, design-wise, and the new visuals are gorgeous....

Humans tend to perceive progression mostly in terms of notable milestones. As we age, we don’t register the minute changes in our skin, our muscles, or our metabolism even though we see ourselves in great detail on a constant basis. However, when that first laugh line, or grey hair, or hangover that takes way too long to recover from (cough–personalexperience–cough) appears in our lives, you can bet we stand up and take notice....
