Here’s a little video reminder thatAlvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwreckedis coming to theaters and that there is a game based on said violation of nostalgia. Said game is available in stores now. It’s particularly egregious in the case of the Chipmunks, seeing as my parents already had to watch while we stuck sunglasses and an oversized shirt on Alvin. Now that they’re computer generated, I don’t even begin to understand how they must feel right now....

The shootout’s over TheRed Deaddrama is over between Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar, and the Pinkertons. In January, Pinkerton Consulting & Investigation sent a cease and desist letter to Rockstar and its parent company Take-Two over the use of the Pinkerton name and likeness inRed Dead Redemption 2. In retaliation,Take-Two immediately filed a lawsuitrequesting a declaratory judgment under the grounds thatRed Dead Redemption 2‘s inclusion of the Pinkertons falls under fair use that’s rooted in historical accuracy....

‘Dreams can come true,’ says the publisher Alien: Isolationin virtual reality — need I say more? Besides the inherent potential for terror in a game about evading a lone Xenomorph, even the more mundane sequences could work wonderfully in VR. Creative Assembly nailed the retro-futuristic aesthetic and I’d love to see those details up close and personal (when I’m not being chased). As you might recall, the studio prototyped an Oculus Rift version ofIsolationa couple of years ago....

When I received an invite to theTorchlight IIbeta, I let out a noise that can only be described as a “yelp.” It was a happy noise, one that I wasn’t quite sure I was capable of making. “This will be a great time killer untilDiablo IIIcomes out,” I thought. Well, now thatDiablo IIIis out, I still find myself booting up theTorchlight IIclient quite often. What was it that pulled me away from a game I had been anticipating for the better part of a decade?...

Next up, the release date If there’s one game I’d really appreciate having on my Switch right now (aside fromMario Odyssey), it’s got to beStardew Valley. Even just thinking about the laid-back farming sim puts my mind at ease. Switch owners have been yearning for any morsel of information they can scrounge up and I’m right there with them. Today brings our latest development update:Stardew Valleyis “approved” for the system, according to Chucklefish CEO Finn Brice, and they’re working toward a release date....

Juri Duty Completed This weekend, I had the good fortune to sit down with Capcom’s upcoming scrapperStreet Fighter 6for the second time in as many months. Having already spent some solid time with the flashy fighter at the VSFighting tournament just six weeks ago, FGC punching bag Chris Moyse was given the opportunity to spend a solid few hours at a brand new build — showcased at premierUK trade show EGX....

Kids, man Life changes quickly, and for the most part, I’ve embraced it. Being a kid is great but getting older and wiser has been an incredible experience: I can synthesize this feeling down to staying up all night eating ice cream and playing video games whenever I want, occasionally with my wife, who I get to see nearly every single day. Now I’ve added a kid to that equation and I truly understand what “family” means....

Also, that long arrow shot GirKart64’s video shows just how far you can push the limits ofZelda: Breath of the Wild. Attempting to set a record for farthest parry, they walk all the way up a mountain, get in clear view of a Guardian, and let it rip. It’s not so much the act itself (you can spend plenty of time calculating the shot for a video, and the parry timing is fairly forgiving), but the fact that you can do it at all....

Tag. Team. Back again… This weekend saw the official reveal of the next hero headed to Blizzard Entertainment’s shooter sequel Overwatch 2, butwhile the incoming Omnic Ramattramight have taken some of the community by surprise, (given the persisting rumorthat Mauga would be next), some die-hard fans are sat with itchy trigger fingers waiting on the arrival of the mysterious mech maiden, D.Mon. D.Mon, asOWlore fans will realize, is a member of South Korea’s Mobile Exo-Force of the Korean Army — more commonly known by the acronym “MEKA”....

Killzone 3‘s “From the Ashes” map pack is available on the PlayStation Network right bloody now, and Destructoid has gotten its filthy hands on ten codes. What are we going to do with these surplus codes? Why, give ’em away, of course! Entry is fairly simple, of course. Just post in this thread and tell us what you’d do if youHilary P. Helghastcame to your house for dinner? What would you feed him?...
