There are a lot of ambitious mods out there, and Fallout has attracted quite a few such projects. One of those is Fallout: London, but if you want to go to warmer places, maybe Fallout: Miami would be something. The team has been working on this Fallout 4 project in their spare time for several years now, and a few days ago a new trailer was released. It doesn't show gameplay (although most people probably know what Fallout 4 looks like), but offers a glimpse of the different places we'll g
Everything is delayed. Most of the time. So it's perhaps not so surprising that worried fans are asking Insomniac on Twitter if the vague 2023 release window will hold for Marvel's Spider-Man 2. According to Insomniac, there is no cause for concern. "Good progress" is being made and they still hold 2023 as the release date for the sequel. Spider-Man 2 was unveiled in September last year and since then we haven't seen the smoke of another trailer, but that shouldn't be cause for concern - ac
In the first ten days, more than 25 million have played Overwatch 2, compared to the 15 million that attracted the original in the first three months. The bragging numbers come from Blizzard themselves, who claim that the sequel completely crushed the original's peak for concurrent players. Blizzard CEO Mike Ybarra says in a press release that the moment is important for Blizzard. "The launch of Overwatch 2 has been such an important moment for Blizzard. This is only the beginning—ther
WB Games Montreal says that their upcoming Batman game (without Batman) will lack "performance mode" and the ability to choose between it and "quality mode". Gotham Knights will also be locked to 30 FPS on consoles. According to them, it's because of the co-op and cooperative nature of the game. The information about this was posted on their own discord and has since been spread via, among other things, twitter by others. In other words, they haven't released any official information about this
Hellena Taylor has been Bayonetta 's voice in two games, but in the 3rd it is instead Jennifer Hale who does the witch's voice. It has been unclear why they switched voice actors. but at the same time, it has happened before in the gaming world that iconic voice actors have been replaced. Sometimes it can have to do with things as simple as scheduling conflicts, but in Taylor's case, it's all about the money. According to her, she was only offered $4,000 dollars to do the role. She posts this in
Overwatch 2 is not even ten days old and has already managed to acquire a rich list of problems - which players will be compensated with via various cosmetic tinkering and double xp weekends. Now Blizzard is investigating another bug, which some PC players are forced to deal with. Blizzard reports computers shutting down or restarting when players play Overwatch 2. They encourage affected players to submit their DXDIAG, which you can do via Blizzard's forums. Blizzard has released seve
Disaster struck when promising wild west/fantasy shooter Evil West was delayed in August. The new release date was November 22nd, and now it looks like it will actually be held, as publisher Focus Entertainment has announced via Twitter that the game has gone gold – in other words, it's basically done, although of course they will continue with the polishing right up to the release. The game is being developed by Flying Wild Hog, who are mainly known for the Shadow Warrior games, but also r
The latest Saints Row game has been out for a while now, but has mostly been met with a shrug of the shoulders and a hesitant "nahaaaa". In addition to not quite living up to its predecessors, many players have also complained about various bugs that mar the experience, including trains plowing through buildings, T-positions, and NPCs getting stuck in things. Help is on the way, though, and developer Volition says they're working hard to improve the experience and have heard all feedback. T
Several laptops' LCD screens have suffered permanent damage after the computers were updated to version 5.19.12 of the Linux kernel, reports Ars Technica . "After reviewing some logs, it results in potentially incorrect delays in panels' power sequence supply which can damage LCD panels - writes Intel engineer Ville Syrjälä. His recommendation is that no users with Intel GPUs should run 5.19.12 of the Linux kernel and instead go back to an earlier version. At the time of writing
The players who paid for Star Citizen have put in an average of $296 each. It emerged after Chris Roberts' opening speech during Saturday's Citizencon event, Twinfinite writes. Roberts said that 1.7 million of the 4.1 million players listed on the funding page have paid for it. And with 504 million dollars collected, it is quickly possible to calculate that the buyers put in about $300 each. Other interesting numbers from Roberts are that it has averaged 50,000 players per day this yea
Last week it was time for Chivalry 2 to be released on Game Pass, and judging by the player numbers, many were hungry for the action-packed medieval battles. Via Twitter, the official Chivalry 2 account writes that over 500,000 new players have jumped into the game since its release on Game Pass, and that was written after just four days, so it's not impossible that the number has risen further. The game came out last April, and after a month Torn Banner Studio was able to proclaim that it
Curious players have for some time been able to participate in the open beta test of EA App - the PC client that will act as a replacement for Origin and which for several years was the client we had to use to play their games. And now the EA App is more or less finished, which means that Origin will soon be gone. They describe EA App as the fastest and lightest PC client they've ever created, and the smooth design is said to make it easy to find the games and content you're looking for. It
"The Mean One" is described as a horror parody of Dr. Seuss' classic Christmas story. Not long ago, we got our first look at Winnie the Pooh and Piglet as sadistic psychopaths in the upcoming horror film "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey."   Now it's time for the next child favorite to walk the same path, and become a brutal killer. The Grinch, the green creature who hates Christmas, is the main character in a new slasher film released just in time for Christmas. Here he torments the sm
The joke about the lack of mobile phones is perhaps starting to get a little tired, but now the fact is that it is starting to be needed even for non-mobile games. Blizzard stated that Overwatch 2 requires players to have a mobile number to play and now it appears that this also applies to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 reboot . It must of course also be a "real" number, prepaid cards and the like will not be accepted. Requiring a mobile number for ranked play has been done before as bo
The streaming service had grand, Marvel-inspired plans for Tolkien's Middle-earth, with new TV series about Aragorn and Gandalf. JRR Tolkien's relatives have been quite protective of the rights to his books and characters. After Peter Jackson's film trilogies, it took a long time before Amazon was allowed to record "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" which we have been able to stream this fall. But Amazon was far from the only streaming service trying to get its paws on the pre
This week vague but big CD Projekt news was revealed , with five Witcher games and a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel. Project Orion is the code name for the latter. It will have multiplayer and the development will mainly take place in the USA. Many, many people will be working on the game. Piotr Nielubowicz, CFO of CD Projekt, estimates that it could be up to 500 people. "As for the total headcount required for such a production, I believe the best reference is Cyberpunk 2077, our most recent r
Now the Steam people can link their Steam accounts to their Playstation account. Or well, right now you can just do that in Marvel’s Spider-Man which was patched today to rake the arena for the new feature. Sony has also launched a small website for the purpose, with images of Uncharted, Days Gone and God of War . In other words, more is coming, but we don’t know exactly when. And what do you gain from this? Well, in Spider-Man you get a couple of skill points, a suit and a “Concussive Blas
Dynasty Warriors developers Omega Force, together with EA, will enter the monster hunting genre with Wild Hearts. In the announcement trailer from last month we got to see some quick glimpses of gameplay, but now they're back with a proper seven minute gameplay trailer. There we get to see the player moving around in the game world, Azuma, and emphasize how big a role building various skin pairs will play, not only for easier hunting monsters, but also for getting around. The player builds,
Overwatch 2 was released a couple of days ago, and some really lucky players have actually been able to play it. The usual server problems that appear at most releases of online games have been present, and Blizzard says that the game has been subjected to DDoS attacks. Now Blizzard has come out and apologized for the release, which they say did not meet the expectations of the players or their own. Regarding actually getting into the game, they say they’ve updated a server to make the logi
Elon Musk appears to be doing a U-turn on his purchase of Twitter, now offering to move forward with the original deal. Twitter confirms this on its own platform on Tuesday. The offer comes just two weeks before the trial scheduled in which Twitter has sued Musk for trying to back out of the deal. That Musk has changed his mind when it comes to the deal is evident from documents submitted to the US financial inspection agency SEC, AP reports. Twitter confirms on its own platform that t
The agreement to make USB-C the mandatory standard for portable electronics has this afternoon been approved by an overwhelming majority. The law will reduce the amount of e-waste and make it easier for consumers, as devices such as smartphones, tablets, headphones, e-readers and digital cameras will be able to be charged with the same cable and charger. The regulations are also intended to standardize fast charging. However, the press release raises some questions as, for example, accordin
Overwatch 2 is having a rough start. Everything from DDOS to server queues. It's becoming quite a theme over at the Blizzard headquarters, server queues, it's almost as Blizzard was a small indie company living of off funding from a kickstarter project and not a billion dollar company. If you try and join a Overwatch 2 game now, you should not be surprised if you are put in a hour long queue with upwards to 20,000 people in front of you also waiting to join. And it's not likely to get bette
Company of Heroes 3 joins many games when it is postponed from the fall of 2022 to 2023. November 17th becomes February 23rd in a flash, and the reason is that Relic wants to polish it further. In a tweet , they admit that the game in its current state "doesn't quite live up to our or the players' expectations". Another three months should hopefully do the trick for Company of Heroes 3. Sega, for its part, says that it is now time for improvements, balancing and fine-tuning. It is hard

It is planned and worked on both The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 series, but also on a completely new brand. Polaris Working title of the next AAA major The Witcher game from CDPR. The first of three titles, just like the original series. This project was announced in March of this year , and was then in “pre-productio
"The Godfather" director Francis Ford Coppola pours in a billion kroner (!) in the film that will become his magnum opus. His "Godfather" trilogy changed the world of cinema, and he's not done yet.   Francis Ford Coppola, 83 years old, is planning perhaps his most ambitious project to date when it is finally time to film "Megalopolis" - a giant project he has carried on for over 30 years.   In order to realize the grand story, he will film on the state-of-the-art The Prysm Stage in Atl
