Pokemon Go's first Gen 4 Legendary, Giratina, may no longer be available, but another rare Pokemon from the Sinnoh region has now taken its place. Cresselia, a Psychic-type Legendary first introduced in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, has begun appearing in Raid Battles around the world, giving players their first chance to capture one for a limited time.As usual, in order to catch Cresselia, you'll first need to team up with other players in real life and head to a Gym where a Cresselia Raid is taking place. Once there, you'll be able to challenge the Legendary Pokemon to a battle; if you manage to successfully defeat it, you'll earn a handful of Premier Balls and a chance to capture it.Cresselia will appear as a Raid Battle until December 18, giving you nearly a month to add one to your collection. As mentioned above, it is a pure Psychic-type, making it susceptible to Dark, Bug, and Ghost Pokemon. Tyranitar, Scizor, and Giratina are particularly useful, but you'll need to bring along a powerful team to bring Cresselia down thanks to its high HP and defense stats.Cresselia isn't the only new Gen 4 Pokemon to arrive in Go recently; last week, Niantic introduced a handful of Gen 4 evolutions to the game. Players can now get Electivire, Magmortar, Rhyperior, Porygon-Z, and other evolved Pokemon in Go. To do so, you'll need a new evolutionary item called the Sinnoh Stone, as well as the requisite amount of Candy.The Gen 4 evolutions arrived alongside the ongoing Hatchathon event. From now until November 27, you'll be able to hatch Pokemon that have evolved forms that were first introduced in the series' Gen 4 titles, such as Rhydon, Porygon, and Magby, from 2 km Eggs. You also have a chance of hatching a rare shiny Elekid during the event.The latest pair of Pokemon games, Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee, recently launched for Nintendo Switch. By connecting Pokemon Go to the titles, you'll have a chance to catch the new Mythical Pokemon Meltan. Even if you don't have either of the Let's Go titles, you'll still be able to encounter Meltan by completing a new Special Research quest.Info from Gamespot.com

Ubisoft has announced the full list of changes coming to Rainbow Six Siege in the Operation Wind Bastion update. The release of Wind Bastion marks the start of Siege's Year 3, Season 4, which is the final season of 2018. You can try Operation Wind Bastion's new map and Operators on the PC version's test servers right now.The biggest changes coming to Siege in Operation Wind Bastion are two new Operators and an additional multiplayer map. Nomad is the new Attacker Operator, whose airjab launcher allows her to send Defenders flying through the air out of cover or through walls. Kaid is the new Defender Operator, whose electroclaws can electrify multiple reinforced walls and hatches, as well as barbed wire and deployable shields from a distance--which makes him feel massively overpowered. The new map, called Fortress, offers numerous roof access points for Attackers, as well as several staircases and ladders for Defenders to set up traps and choke points.Operation Wind Bastion also includes additional weapon skins and a headgear bundle. Shop navigation will also be updated to let you see weapons in fullscreen and buy new items directly from the News tab. Five older Operators are also receiving balancing changes. Mute, Clash, and Smoke are being buffed, while Lesion and Zofia are being nerfed.

When transferring your Pokemon from Pokemon Go to Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu / Let's Go Eevee, make sure you don't do anything to interrupt the process, says Nintendo. Interrupting the transfer could result in you losing some of your Pokemon from Pokemon Go.To make sure the process isn't interrupted, Nintendo highlighted some best practices on its support site. When you decide to start moving your Pokemon from Go over into Let's Go, make sure to avoid clicking the home or power button on your Switch. You also don't want to press the home button, turn off Bluetooth, or suspend the Pokemon Go app on your mobile device. Nintendo also advises keeping your mobile device and Switch console close together during the process to ensure a smooth transition.Following this advice should prevent any problems when you transfer your Pokemon. If you notice that your transfer has somehow paused itself or did not completely move all your Pokemon over, Nintendo advises you turn off the Pokemon Go app and uninstall it. After reinstalling the game, you should be able to resume the transfer again. However, any Pokemon that were in between your mobile device and Switch may be lost for good, "as uninstalling and reinstalling the app would cause the transfer process to be stuck in limbo."If you're having trouble transferring any of your Pokemon from Go to Let's Go--including the Pokemon Go exclusive Meltan--check out our guide. For even more Let's Go tips, check out our list of 9 things you should know before starting and our guide to getting Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle.In our Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu / Let's Go, Eevee review, Jake Dekker gave the two games an 8/10, writing, "...Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee are delightful reimaginings of the series' origins and a deep RPG in their own right. It makes a lot of smart improvements on the original Red, Blue, and Yellow while holding on to what made them so special in the first place."Info from Gamespot.com

Microsoft executive vice-president of gaming Phil Spencer has teased that Xbox has "a lot to share" at E3 2019. Spencer tweeted about the event moments after Sony announced it would not be attending E3 next year."A lot to share with fans at E3 2019. Always a high point of the year to witness the industry's creativity and the energy of the community," Spencer tweeted. An hour later, Xbox followed up by tweeting out to fans that the company "can't wait" to see everyone at E3 2019. Although the company has not confirmed it, one of the announcements that Xbox is looking to share could be the new console teased at E3 2018.Xbox may be presenting at a different time for E3 2019 as well. Xbox business lead for Asia Jeremy Hinton tweeted that Microsoft would be moving its presentation time in consideration of Australian viewers. We've reached out to Microsoft to confirm, as well as whether the company intends to have its E3 presentation outside the event hall, like this past year.The absence of Sony from E3 2019 will be the first time the company won't be attending the event since E3 was founded. Sony has shared the spotlight at E3 with both Microsoft and Nintendo for a number of years, so it's a fairly big surprise to see the company willingly sit out. The first details that Sony wouldn't be in attendance were announced via the ESA. Sony followed-up with a confirmation."As the industry evolves, Sony Interactive Entertainment continues to look for inventive opportunities to engage the community," the company said in a statement to GameSpot. "PlayStation fans mean the world to us and we always want to innovate, think differently and experiment with new ways to delight gamers. As a result, we have decided not to participate in E3 in 2019. We are exploring new and familiar ways to engage our community in 2019 and can't wait to share our plans with you."Info from Gamespot.com

Just prior to the release of the latest update, Week 8 of Fortnite Season 6 kicked off, bringing a new assortment of challenges to complete in Epic's popular battle royale game across PS4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices. If you're hoping to snag the rest of Season 6's Battle Pass rewards, you'll want to complete as many challenges as you can, as doing so will reward you with the XP and Battle Stars needed to unlock them.That isn't the only incentive to complete challenges; if you manage to clear all of the ones from a given week, you'll also earn a special loading screen, which hides a clue pointing to a free item that's hidden somewhere around the map. Depending on how many sets of weekly challenges you complete, you'll either be able to find a free Battle Star--which will level your Battle Pass up by one tier--or a Banner that you can use as a profile icon.If you've completed every challenge up to and including Week 8's, you'll unlock the loading screen pictured below. It features the AIM skin--the Legendary outfit you receive after completing seven of this season's Hunting Party challenges--perched atop a roof viewing at a holographic map of the island. Look closely at the background, however, and you'll notice the outline of a Banner etched on the chimney just behind the character.The area alluded to in the loading screen is Flush Factory, located in the southern edge of the island. Glide there at the start of a match, land on top of the roof, and you'll find the Banner near the chimney just as teased. Collect it and you'll be able to use it as your icon. We've highlight its exact location on the map below.As is the case with previous Hunting Party rewards, you'll need to complete the requisite number of challenges and unlock the aforementioned loading screen before being able to collect this Banner. The item won't appear on the map unless you've cleared all of the necessary steps, so you won't simply be able to go to its location and collect it without putting in the necessary work.Season 6 of Fortnite is winding down, giving you only have a few more weeks to unlock the rest of its Battle Pass cosmetics and other rewards. Week 8's challenges are all fairly straightforward, although its trickier missions task you with shooting clay pigeons and dancing in front of fish trophies. If you need help completing any of the challenges from this season, be sure to check out our Fortnite Season 6 challenge roundup.

One of Microsoft's newest studios, The Initiative, continues to hire big-name talent. Drew Murray, who worked at Resistance, Ratchet & Clank, and Sunset Overdrive studio Insomniac Games, has joined The Initiative in the role of "developer." Murray was a junior designer on Resistance: Fall of Man, before working on Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction as a designer. He was elevated to senior designer for Resistance 2 and then worked on Resistance 3 as a lead designer. Murray then became the game director for Insomniac's Xbox One game Sunset Overdrive. According to his LinkedIn page, Murray left Insomniac in October 2015 after 10 years with the company, so he wasn't around for Insomniac's Spider-Man for PS4, which was a critical and a commercial success. There is no word yet as to what The Initiative's first game will be, but what we do know is that Microsoft has been hiring some very big names for the studio. Before Murray, The Initiative hired Rockstar Games veteran Tom Shepherd, who was the technical director for Red Dead Redemption 1, Max Payne 3, and Grand Theft Auto V. He also worked on Midnight Club 3 and Midnight Club Remix during his 11 years at Rockstar San Diego.The list of other high-profile hirings is long. Microsoft previously hired Red Dead Redemption 1 writer/designer Christian Cantamessa, along with God of War lead producer Brian Westergaard. Other newly hired employees include Dan Neuburger (a 12-year veteran of Crystal Dynamics), Blake Fischer (a 16-year Microsoft veteran in publishing), Annie Lohr (formerly a recruiter at Respawn and Snapchat), and Lindsey McQueeney (former recruiter at Google, Crystal Dynamics, and 38 Studios).The Initiative was announced at E3 as part of Microsoft's wider announcement of new studios and acquisitions. The company, which is based in Santa Monica, says its ambition is "about craft, creating story, innovating, and looking ahead to the next big thing." While the company is owned by Microsoft, it claims to operate independently.Darrell Gallagher, a former Square Enix and Activision boss, is heading up The Initiative for Microsoft. The Initiative is just one of seven studios that Microsoft either set up or acquired in the past six months. At E3, Microsoft announced that it acquired Playground Games (Forza Horizon), Compulsion Games (We Happy Few), Ninja Theory (Hellblade), and Undead Labs (State of Decay). At Microsoft's X018 event in Mexico City, Microsoft announced the acquisition of Obsidian Entertainment (Fallout: New Vegas) and inXile Entertainment (Wasteland 3). Info from Gamespot.com

The crowdfunding campaign for Star Citizen started six years ago in October 2012, and in that time, the super-ambitious PC space same has been a massive success from a funding perspective. It's now reached yet another milestone: $200 million."The amount is the highest total for any project in the history of crowdfunding," creator Chris Roberts said in a blog post. "And [it's] beyond anything I could have imagined in my wildest dreams."The person who pushed Star Citizen over $200 million is someone from New South Wales in Australia who has been supporting Star Citizen since 2014. Support for Star Citizen has come from people in 171 countries, including smaller ones like San Marino."We cover the globe, pole to pole from Antarctica to Svalbard and Jan Mayen," Roberts said. "Considering there are only 193 countries in the world, that's an amazing number and shows how universal the appeal of Star Citizen is."Right now, there are more than 500 people working on Star Citizen and its campaign mode Squadron 42 spread across five studios in three different countries.Part of what's made Star Citizen so enduringly successful is the way in which developer Cloud Imperium Games speaks openly and frankly to fans, Roberts says."To reduce Star Citizen to just be about the amount raised is to do a disservice to all this," Roberts said. "No other game shares as much information on a weekly basis, and no other game I know of is as focused on listening to and working with its community to make the best game possible. When I look around and see other games, even ones from major publishers, copying our playbook, I know we have had a positive influence on the gaming industry."One of the criticisms of Star Citizen has been how the game remains officially unreleased after so long. Parts of the game, modules, have been made available, but the full product and the Squadron 42 mode remain in development. Roberts said Cloud Imperium will announce the roadmap for Squadron 42's completion in December, while the project overall is getting closer to release, even if it's still a while out."We are getting closer all the time to having a living, breathing persistent universe and as we close out this year, I look at the technology we must complete to achieve the vision and realize we are nearer to the end than the start."A new trailer for Star Citizen premiered at the Star Citizen fan event CitizenCon, showing a number of big-name celebrities who will appear in the Squadron 42 mode. Check out the trailer above to see people like Gillian Anderson, Mark Hamill, Gary Oldman, Mark Strong, Henry Cavill, John Rhys Davies, Liam Cunningham, and Ben Mendelsohn.In other news, Star Citizen's Alpha 3.3 update is out now, and it adds a new face-scanning Face over IP feature, as well as more ships, weapons, enemy characters, and lots more.

What video games and consoles sold the best in October? The NPD Group has released its report for the month, revealing that Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 topped the software sales charts while Sony's PlayStation 4 was the best-performing console in the month in the United States.Rounding out the top five best-selling games, in order, were Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, NBA 2K19, and Super Mario Party. Notably, while Red Dead Redemption 2 had an astoundingly excellent first few days (it's shipped 17 million copies already), its launch came at the end of the month (October 26) compared to an early-October release (October 12) for Black Ops 4.According to the NPD, Black Ops 4's first-month dollar sales amounted to the eighth biggest since NPD started tracking sales in 1995. After just one month, Black Ops 4 is now the best-selling game of 2018 in the US, and the second best-selling game of the trailing 12-month period, only behind Call of Duty: WWII. It appears Black Ops 4 not having a traditional campaign didn't hurt sales as some might have predicted. The reporting period for October was October 7 through November 3.As for Red Dead Redemption 2, it's now the second best-selling game of 2018. Its launch-month sales were three times higher than the first-month sales of Red Dead Redemption 1 in 2010.With console, portable, and PC sales combined, total software revenue more than doubled from last October to $965 million. That's good for the best October in NPD history, besting the previous high of $743 million from October 2008. Notably, the Call of Duty franchise normally releases in November, while Red Dead Redemption 2 is a once-a-console-generation-type game, so better-than-normal results were expected.Moving to hardware, Sony's PlayStation 4 was the best-selling console of October 2018 in terms of units sold and total revenue. In face, October was the PS4's best October ever for unit sales, while total dollar sales were the highest of any October since October 2014. Covering all platforms, total spending on hardware rose 26 percent year-over-year to $300 million. The PS4 and Xbox One posted "significant gains," but other platforms declined.With software, hardware, and accessories combined, total spending on video games in the US in October 2018 came out to $1.55 billion, which was up 73 percent. October 2018 represented the best month ever since NPD started tracking video game sales in 1995. The previous record was $1.36 billion from October 2008.October 2018 Best-Selling GamesAll-PlatformsCall of Duty: Black Ops 4^Red Dead Redemption 2Assassin's Creed OdysseyNBA 2K19Super Mario Party*Soul Calibur VIFIFA 19^Spider-ManMadden NFL 19^WWE 2K19Forza Horizon 4Lego DC Super VillainsMy Hero One's JusticeShadow of the Tomb RaiderMario Kart 8*Grand Theft Auto VSuper Mario Odyssey*Diablo III***The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild*NHL 19All Platforms Year To DateCall of Duty: Black Ops 4^Red Dead Redemption 2Far Cry 5Spider-ManNBA 2K19God of WarMonster Hunter: WorldMadden NFL 19^Grand Theft Auto VCall of Duty: WWIIAll Platforms Ending October 2018Call of Duty: WWII^Call of Duty: Black Ops 4^Red Dead Redemption 2Far Cry 5Star Wars: Battlefront IISuper Mario OdysseySpider-ManNBA 2K19God of WarNBA 2K18Xbox One October 2018Call of Duty: Black Ops 4Red Dead Redemption IIAssassin's Creed: OdysseyForza Horizon 4NBA 2K19Madden NFL 19FIFA 19WWE 2K19Soul Calibur VIShadow of the Tomb RaiderPS4 October 2018Call of Duty: Black Ops 4Red Dead Redemption IIAssassin's Creed: OdysseySpider-ManSoul Calibur VINBA 2K19FIFA 19WWE 2K19Madden NFL 19My Hero One's JusticeNintendo Switch October 2018Super Mario PartyMario Kart 8Super Mario OdysseyThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WildDiablo IIIStarlink: Battle For AtlasDark Souls RemasteredThe World Ends With You: Final RemixLego DC Super VillainsMy Hero One's JusticeNintendo 3DS October 2018Luigi's MansionPokemon: Ultra SunPokemon: Ultra MoonMario Kart 7MinecraftSuper Smash Bros.Super Mario 3D LandLuigi's Mansion: Dark MoonMario Party: The Top 100New Super Mario Bros. 2* Digital sales not included^ PC digital sales not included*** Diablo III sales include 100% of Physical and Digital on Sony and Microsoft consolesInfo from Gamespot.com

[UPDATE] The Dynamite item has been re-introduced to Fortnite, while Epic also made "some adjustments" to the mounted turret. Click the link below to learn more. Boom! We’ve re-enabled Dynamite as well as made some adjustments to the Mounted Turret.Head over to the link for more details: https://t.co/epzLxDQbLa? — Fortnite (@FortniteGame) November 21, 2018The original story is below.A new update is now available for Fortnite. On top of kicking off a new limited-time event, the cowboy-themed Wild West mode, patch 6.30 introduces another weapon to the game's extensive arsenal: Dynamite. However, you won't be able to find it at the moment, as the developer has had to temporarily disable the item shortly after it arrived.As Epic explained on Twitter, the Dynamite has been removed from Fortnite "while [it investigates] an increase in client crashes." The developer hasn't provided a time table for when players could expect the weapon to return, but it says it will provide a further update on its status once it has more information.The Dynamite is an uncommon item that drops in stacks of three. It can be found as floor loot or in chests, Vending Machines, Supply Drops, and Supply Llamas, and it sounds particularly formidable. Its throw range is shorter than that of a Grenade, but it deals 70 damage to other players and a whopping 800 to structures.Dynamite is also one of the few items that appear in Fortnite's new Wild West LTM. This mode plays out much like a typical Battle Royale match, but it only features weapons and items that might be used by cowboys and cowgirls, such as the Hunting Rifle, Pump Shotgun, and Double Barrel Shotgun. Another weapon, the Minigun, was also available in the mode, but Epic recently announced that has since been removed.In addition to the new item and LTM, update 6.30 introduced the Ghost Pistol to Fortnite's paid Save the World mode. Epic had previously said the mode would follow in Battle Royale's footsteps and go free-to-play this year, but that has been delayed as the developer needs more time to work on some reworks and additional features.Info from Gamespot.com

We're now in Black Friday week, and the two main versions of Xbox One--the Xbox One S and Xbox One X--will be seeing a variety of discounts and bundles. The more expensive Xbox One X, which normally goes for $500, will see some particularly nice offers, including a few that are live right now.All of the Xbox One X discounts on Black Friday 2018 that we've spotted so far are outlined below. Best Buy has one of the best offers at $430, which gets you a special Battlefield V bundle. This consists of a special-edition Xbox One console, Battlefield V, Battlefield 1: Revolution, and Battlefield 1943, plus an additional controller. This bundle is live right now for My Best Buy members.Another quality Xbox One X deal that's already live is a $400 NBA 2K19 bundle; alternatively, $420 gets you that same bundle plus Assassin's Creed Odyssey. If you'd prefer to choose your own games, you can get the system on its own for $380. Ebay also says it'll have more deals on the console later in the week.Another very nice deal comes from Kohl's, where the console is being sold with a digital copy of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and a $120 Kohl's cash card for $400.We've listed all the sales for each store in case you need a back-up plan, and will update this article if more deals are announced. Just remember when stores open and close for Black Friday so you can take advantage of the deal you want.The One X is the most powerful version of the Xbox One, possessing faster load times and playing games with enhanced framerates. It also renders certain games natively in 4K. The One X is much smaller than other Xbox One consoles and--like the One S--can be stored and played horizontally and doesn't have a massive power brick, so it doesn't take up much space.The Xbox One X can also bring the most out of X-enhanced games, which are titles specifically designed or patched to have smoother performances on One X. These include newer titles--like Forza Horizon 4, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and Mass Effect Andromeda--and older games as well, such as Halo 3, Portal 2, and Mirror's Edge. To take full advantage of X-enhanced games, you'll want to hook your Xbox One X up to a 4K TV, which are also on sale this Black Friday.Xbox One X Black Friday DealsBest BuyXbox One X Gold Rush Special Edition Battlefield V Bundle + select controller -- $430EbayXbox One X -- $380Xbox One X with NBA 2K19 -- $400Xbox One X with NBA 2K19 and Assassin's Creed Odyssey -- $420TargetXbox One X -- $430 (unconfirmed)WalmartXbox One X -- $399Kohl'sXbox One X 1TB PlayUnknown's Battlegrounds Bundle + $120 Kohl's Cash -- $400Microsoft StoreXbox One X -- $400GameStopXbox One X -- $70 off and includes $50 gift cardInfo from Gamespot.com
