Completing the Harbinger mission in Destiny 2 gets more than different versions of the Exotic hand cannon Hawkmoon. It can also earn you a special Exotic ship called Radiant Accipiter--but only if you put in the time for multiple runs of the mission. To get the ship, which doesn't show up anywhere else in the game, you need to complete a special quest from The Crow called Bird of Prey. Finishing it requires you to search through the Harbinger mission each week to find special collectibles called Paracausal Feathers.Once you've earned 100 feathers by defeating bosses in Harbinger and finding feathers hidden in the mission, you'll complete the Bird of Prey mission. But you don't get Radiant Accipiter automatically--you have to head back out into the EDZ and find it, hidden inside the dam where Harbinger takes place. It's a confusing path, but we're here to help.Here's how to navigate the dam and unlock the Radiant Accipiter.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

This week on Wrestle Buddies, GameSpot's professional wrestling podcast, our homework is due. For months, Mat Elfring has been watching every episode of WWE Monday Night Raw and every pay-per-view from 1995, and now it's time to look back at WWE's weirdest--and perhaps worst--year of programming.Chris and Mat review the highs and lows from 1995, including the rise of Shawn Michaels to main event superstar, Papa Shango being repackaged as a biker and wannabe ultimate fighter, and the time WWE gave a house to a child--yes, that actually happened. Also, did you know the secret inspiration for Bray Wyatt's WWE character was introduced in 1995? Get ready to meet Waylon Mercy.This is a year that doesn't get talked about much. After all, it's post-Hulkamania running wild, but WWE had yet to launch the Attitude Era. Instead, the "New Generation" as they termed it, is a time where WWE got experimental with its characters and storylines. A lot of them were bad, yes, but it's interesting to look back on a time when the company wasn't afraid to get weird and over-the-top with its product to see what gained traction with the audience. This is definitely a journey you want to join us on.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Ahead of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition's May release, developer BioWare keeps teasing us with comparison shots of just how much the upcoming remaster reimagines the appearance of certain characters and places. The studio has now tweeted a side-by-side for how protagonist Shepard's appearance changes.The comparison in question specifically looks at the default appearance of the character in the original Mass Effect. As you would think, the change for the default female version of the character is a far more drastic change, as there was no iconic female option until Mass Effect 3.Gallery BioWare said that implementing iconic female Shepard into Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 was one of the first things the studio did for the remaster. "We've done another pass on her where we've done everything from slightly modifying some larger forms of her face or adding some medium and fine details like wrinkles and pores and specular breakup," environment and character artist Kevin Meek said.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Apex Legends Season 8: Mayhem introduces Fuse, aka the "Bombastic Explosives Expert." The latest addition to the roster has officially joined the Apex Games, and he arrives along with the new 30-30 Repeater and several welcome changes to Kings Canyon, which is now back in the map rotation following its removal in Season 7. If you're having trouble with Fuse's abilities, you've come to the right place--we have a few tips and tricks for how to best utilize his explosive moveset.Unlocking Fuse is an easy enough process--you just need to buy him. Head on over to the Legends tab while in Apex Legends' in-game store and then click on his icon. Per usual, the new legend costs 12,000 Legend Tokens or 750 Apex Coins, whichever you prefer. Legend Tokens are earned by playing and leveling up while Apex Coins can only be bought with real-world money. Starting at level four, you earn 600 Legend Tokens every time you level up, so that's 20 levels. 750 Apex Coins is about $8 USD.Fuse's General OverviewAlright, so now that you have Fuse, how do you use his skills effectively? Well, despite his laid-back attitude, there's actually a bit of meticulous strategy to playing as Fuse. All of his abilities are based around doing as much explosive damage as quickly and efficiently as possible, but you won't go very far if you just fire them off willy-nilly--especially while indoors as Fuse's abilities will damage him if he's caught in the blast radius. Though Fuse can be an excellent character for temporary area denial if you don't have a Wattson or Caustic in your squad (both of whom offer a more effective solution), it's not his strong suit. Fuse is at his absolute best when out in the open, spearheading his squad's offensive efforts, especially when third-partying (which, for those not in the know, is the act of joining an ongoing fight between two other squads once they've both thinned each others' numbers a little). Thanks to his abilities, Fuse can turn the tides in his squad's favor when they're launching ambushes or trying to fight off more than one enemy squad.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

As part of Sony's latest earnings report, the company announced that it is losing money on every PlayStation 5 that it sells--but this is not unusual for Sony or the wider gaming industry.In its statement, Sony said it is incurring a loss of every PS5 due to its decision to set a "strategic" price point for the next-generation system. The consumer price of the disc version of the console, $500 USD in the US, is less than what it costs to manufacture it, thus leading to an overall loss.Sony did not provide a specific dollar amount for how much money it's losing on every PS5, but the company said its results during the October-December period were also negatively impacted due to higher general and administrative costs associated with launching the PS5.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
