Bethesda Softworks founder Christopher Weaver--who no longer works at the game company--has shared his thoughts on Microsoft's $7.5 billion buyout of Bethesda and its parent company ZeniMax. Speaking to Inverse, Weaver said he sees Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda as being similar to the company's buyout of Bungie.Microsoft famously acquired Bungie in 2000, and its new game, Halo: Combat Evolved, proved to be a very big success and has since become synonymous with Xbox. Bungie and Microsoft later split, but Halo remains one of Microsoft's crown jewels.If Microsoft can successfully integrate Bethesda into Microsoft, this could be a "brilliant counter-move against Sony," Weaver said of the longstanding rivalry between the two companies.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Animal Crossing: New Horizons' fall update finally arrives next week, on September 30, but there's more new content on the way to the game this season. Nintendo has confirmed that another Animal Crossing update is coming in late November, and it looks like it'll add two more big seasonal events.While Nintendo didn't share any further details about the November update, the announcement was accompanied by images of Franklin the turkey and Jingle the reindeer. The former hosts the series' Harvest Festival (Thanksgiving) event, while the latter appears during Toy Day (Christmas), so it looks like both holidays are coming as part of the update.Nintendo hasn't yet explained how the Harvest Festival or Toy Day events will work in New Horizons, but in the series' previous installment, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Franklin would send you around to other villagers to gather ingredients for dishes he's preparing. Toy Day was even more involved. All December, you would need to speak to villagers and make note of what they're hoping to receive on Toy Day. Then, on December 24, you would need to dress as Santa and deliver the right presents to each villager.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Nintendo has revealed that anyone with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild save data on their Nintendo Switch will receive a free bonus when playing Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. If you want to take Link into battle with weapon that will might break after a few swings, leaving you completely defenseless, then you'll want to keep your save data.If you have save data for The Legend of #Zelda: Breath of the Wild on your #NintendoSwitch, you'll receive the bonus Training Sword weapon for Link in #HyruleWarriors: Age of Calamity! pic.twitter.com/JSvNUVa1ft — Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) September 26, 2020The free bonus weapon is a Training Sword, the rough wooden blade we've seen a few different times over the course of the series. Link can equip similar armor and a shield like he had in Breath of the Wild, as well, and the game takes place 100 years before it. It's technically a prequel, which means its story could be more interesting than the standard Warriors game. Much like in the first Hyrule Warriors, Age of Calamity has famous Zelda characters fighting through huge numbers of enemies, and you'll be able to play as everyone from Zelda herself to Impa. The sound effects and visuals seem like they've been plucked directly from Breath of the Wild, and there are plenty of cutscenes to help expand the universe. It even supports local cooperative play with both players using one Joy-Con.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

(Note: This post contains spoilers for Playdead's Inside.)When publisher Limited Run Games first revealed the $150 "Chex Warrior" edition of the infamous 1996 shooter Chex Quest--a free total conversion of Doom originally distributed in boxes of the eponymous cereal--reaction ran the gamut from strained confusion to outright enthusiasm. While it might seem like a bizarre tribute to an advertising relic of the '90s, Limited Run's founder Josh Fairhurst offered a simple explanation for the move: He just really liked Chex Quest as a kid."There are definitely times where I take a gamble on something that I think is really cool with the knowledge that it may not make money," he says. "Chex Quest is a great example of that."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

In 2013, console makers Microsoft and Sony looked toward a future they thought was going to completely change the video game industry. Like Nintendo had the year before with the Wii U, the other two platform holders tried to incorporate big new technology ideas into their new consoles, adapting to trends such as touchscreens, mobile app integration, motion control, voice control, and the power of cloud integration. With the Xbox One, Microsoft envisioned a completely new game console that would power your entire living room and tried to completely change the game with its hardware and capabilities.As we near the release of the ninth generation of consoles and the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, though, things are very different. Most of the ideas that defined the Xbox One when it was announced have disappeared from the console, and new elements that were initially discounted have come to help define it. We're looking back at some of the best and worst tech ideas of the Xbox One, from the ill-fated Kinect to the about-face that made backward compatibility possible. The Xbox One's story is a strange one, and the console has gone through some drastic changes--largely for the better.Be sure to also check out our rundown of the best and worst PlayStation 4 tech and hardware as well.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
