"Okay, so that's the Crow, and he's the guy who killed Cayde-6, and it's a really big deal that he's back and that we're working with him--because we murdered him," I explained, somewhat breathless, over the Discord voice chat filled with four of my oldest friends. "You really should play Forsaken before this."Nobody said anything for a few long moments as I thought about what other story elements of Destiny 2 might be relevant to the mission we were about to run. As I thought about it, two things dawned on me. First, that anything I could tell them about Destiny would be relevant because their introduction to the story and the world was so thin. Second, that they probably didn't care.When Bungie released Beyond Light, the latest expansion to Destiny 2, it added new content to the game while removing a whole lot of old content. Several major in-game destinations were "vaulted," ostensibly because Destiny 2's install size was getting too big and because those areas of the game were getting too little attention, both from the developers and from players. But because of that, tons of old missions are now gone from Destiny 2--like the vanilla campaign that introduces you to the world and its characters.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Call of Duty Warzone's notorious stim glitch has reared its head a fourth time, allowing players to cheat the system and survive in the deadly storm to come out on top. But this one is slightly different from previous iterations.Calling what players have been experiencing this time around a glitch isn't exactly right, but the effects are basically the same: players who exploit it are able to heal infinitely while hiding in the storm, leaving them the sole survivors of a match.If you want to pull the glitch off yourself, we won't tell you how to do it, but know that you'll need a lot of in-game currency to do it. Rather than an actual glitch, this method relies on exploiting loopholes in legal gameplay mechanics by finding ways to rapidly complete Contracts and earn a ton of in-game cash to spend on Munitions Boxes. This isn't a clearly defined coding flaw, so it's not like the past versions of the stim glitch we've seen before, which relied on portions of the game's code that could be exploited.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Note: This post contains some light spoilers for Hitman 3, so read on at your own risk.Thanks to early looks at Hitman 3, we knew its second mission included a full-on murder mystery that takes place in an English manor, nestled right in the middle of your own intentions to commit a murder. What we didn't know was just how intricate that mystery would be--or how much detail it would include about the family at the center of it all.Though the last three Hitman games tell a tale of intrigue of their own, that story is mostly relegated to moments in between missions, providing loose reasoning to venture to each of its massive, dense locations. At Thornbridge Manor in Hitman 3, you're looking to eliminate matriarch Alexa Carlisle because she's a part of the Illuminati-like organization known as Providence. That's enough to get you through the mansion's door, but the story within it is a self-contained glimpse at Alexa and her family, and it mostly exists just to help you learn when you can get a chance to take Alexa out without being seen.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The Razer Viper is one of the best gaming mouse options out there, and the company has just released its latest iteration of the mouse, which features the fastest polling rate of any available on the market. The Razer Viper 8K sends data at eight times the speed of its standard model, reducing latency and improving input delay. The Viper 8K also replaces the standard model at the $80 price point. It's available right now through Amazon and Best Buy. Razer Viper 8K gaming mouse $80 The 8,000KHz polling rate is the big difference for the Razer Viper 8K, which is otherwise very similar to the standard Razer Viper. It also features a 20K DPI optical sensor, on-board memory for custom settings, and Razer's flexible Speedflex cable. See at Amazon See at Best Buy The Razer Viper 8K does feel significantly smoother than my mouse of choice, the Razer DeathAdder V2 Pro. I haven't noticed too much difference in my K/D ratio, but I have had a great time using it, thanks to that 8,000Hz polling rate. It's not quite as dramatic as going from a 60Hz monitor to a 144Hz one in terms of in-game performance, but it does feel like a similar jump in smoothness that will only get better if it comes to Razer's other mouse shapes--the Viper doesn't boast my preferred ergonomics, but if this technology came to the DeathAdder, I could see myself switching back to a wired option.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Having successfully revived the king of monsters in 2016's Shin Godzilla, director Hideaki Anno is now ready to reveal the greatest of Japan's television heroes, Ultraman. Our first look comes in the brand-new trailer for Shin Ultraman.The trailer doesn't actually say much, but it gives us our first look at the hero. Shin Ultraman comes from writer Hideaki Anno and director Shinji Higuchi. The pair worked together on 2016's Shin Godzilla. and even in just 36 seconds this trailer seems to suggest that Shin Ultraman will have a lot in common with that film.Like Shin Godzilla, the film goes with a very classic take on the character. We only see Ultraman in the final moments, but we get a clear look at him. Where Netflix's 2019 Ultraman anime significantly updated and streamlined the look of the character, this version looks a lot like it did in the original 1966 television show. Even the monsters look classic enough--meaning unabashedly cheesy--that it's hard not to laugh at them as they lumber through the forest.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
