Halo Infinite's multiplayer beta test is out now, and players have discovered some new oddities--including a bag that has a better physics/modeling than anyone might have guessed and a bug that causes wet floor signs to go completely haywire.Reddit user acrking76 posted an incredible video of a UNSC military bag featuring a physics and modeling system that is quite impressive. Watch the video below to see how even the faintest touch of the bag affects its model with an impressive attention to detail. "Why are the physics and modeling on this bag so good," acrking76 asked. A very good question, indeed.As for the wet floor sign bug, Reddit user Rough-Many-4308 posted a video that shows something going very, very wrong. The player fires a few plasma grenades and, out of nowhere and for seemingly no reason, an avalanche of wet floor signs begin erupting from out of the ether. This video was captured in the game's new Training Mode, which lets you spawn infinite ammo and equipment.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Machine Games, the developer behind the Wolfenstein reboot and an upcoming untitled Indiana Jones game, apparently has a bit more up its sleeve. As spotted by Opattack, Machine Games is joining Insomniac's club of studios that can develop two major titles at a time, with an employee's LinkedIn profile showing that the studio has another unannounced game in development.The LinkedIn profile belongs to Machine Games senior game designer Teemu Kivikangas. It shows that along with working on the Indiana Jones title, Kivikangas is also the lead game designer for an unannounced project. Of course, it's impossible to say what the upcoming title could be, but players should expect something matching the quality of Machine Games' previous titles.Likewise, it's not clear how much of Machine Games' resources are currently being directed toward this unannounced project. While Bethesda's Pete Hines has previously said that the Indiana Jones game, which Todd Howard is the executive producer for, will not impact the development of other Bethesda titles, that doesn't include Machine Games' unannounced title.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Fortnite skins are a big draw for many fans, which is why a new Epic Games survey should attract so much attention from the game's community. A recent survey sent out by the developer-publisher asked players to weigh in on the appeal of dozens of unreleased skins, giving us a sneak preview of characters potentially headed to the game. While we can't say all of the teased skins will one day be available in Fortnite, it stands to both reason and history that some will.Epic's survey included skins spanning several different sets, with some making great companion characters to past heroes, while others look totally new and unlike anything else in Fortnite. Content creators have shared the full slate of polled skins, including several themed around Halloween, Christmas, and other tie-in events, which you can see in the tweet below.Epic are working on a Remix Omega, Christmas Aerial Assault Trooper, Frozen Midas, Frozen Peely, Frozen Renegade Raider, Toon Brite Bomber & More..👀Here are ALL the skins from the concepts survey in order: pic.twitter.com/dq4VRPi17Y — HYPEX (@HYPEX) September 24, 2021Sets that were noticed by fans include more characters in ongoing styles such as frozen, anime, and toon styles. There's also a Christmas-themed redesign of the fanmade skin Isabelle, a Hogwarts-inspired student of witchcraft. Other new styles for characters we've seen before include a winter-ready Doctor Slone and a clover-green Wildcard. As for totally new characters, there are plenty, like a killer clown, a human-sized bird, and a sloth who looks equipped for military service--you know, typical Fortnite stuff.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Throughout its six-year lifespan, the Nintendo GameCube managed to amass a sizable library of games. Officially, 653 games were released on the system from first-party Nintendo studios and other second- and third-party developers. In the years since production on the GameCube was halted, Nintendo has occasionally dipped into that vault of games and re-released them on newer consoles. There has been some hope that, with the console turning 20-years-old, that Nintendo would announce a dedicated GameCube virtual console for the Switch, but so far nothing concrete has emerged. We've put together a list of the best GameCube games--in alphabetical order--to celebrate the enduring legacy of Nintendo's box-shaped underdog with a carrying handle.Fire Emblem: Path of RadianceFire Emblem: Path of RadianceLong before the Fire Emblem franchise took a huge gamble on the Nintendo 3DS to determine its fate and was granted a new awakening, it was making a name for itself in Japan and largely shunning the idea of a Western release. That changed after Super Smash Bros. Melee was released, and in 2005 we got Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, building on the localization efforts set by Fire Emblem and Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. All the signature tactical action of the franchise was polished to a new level, bringing with it an addictive layer of turn-based strategy, challenging maps, and the infamous permadeath system that could undo hours of hard work when a beloved comrade fell in battle.With full-motion videos, a rich story, and a ton of stats to factor into every battle, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance was a strategy game that was well worth investing time in, creating an unforgettable and mature experience on Nintendo's colorful console.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Alongside Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon 5 is one of Microsoft's biggest games this holiday season, and its November 9 release date is coming up fast. The beloved open-world racing series heads to Mexico in the latest entry from UK developer Playground Games. Ahead of launch for Xbox and PC, we're rounding up everything you need to know about the game from its announcement leading up to today.Who's Developing It?Fans may be happy to know that series creator Playground Games is returning to develop Forza Horizon 5.

The developers have since spoken about how the extra year of development helped make Forza Horizon 5 a better, more accessible game.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Back in 2018, The Haunting Of Hill House made massive waves, not just for critics and fans of the horror genre but for anyone interested in the actual craft of filmmaking--and for good reason. The show's sixth episode, "Two Storms" was an incredible feat of engineering, done with virtually no cuts (just five in total across a full hour) that earned its very own behind the scenes featurette just to showcase how they managed to pull it off.Spoilers: It wasn't easy at all, and including trap doors for actors and specially designed sets to accommodate tracking shots.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Xbox consoles house another platform today thanks to a new version of Microsoft Edge added in this month's Xbox update. Starting today, Xbox users can access the latest version of Microsoft's browser, which can stream Google Stadia games and even access Discord.Streaming Stadia games to either an Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One should essentially be the same as it would be on a PC.

According to The Verge, Stadia games that are streamed to an Xbox console can be played either with a controller or an attached mouse and keyboard.September’s @Xbox update includes new ways to access games on Windows PCs via the Xbox app, Play Later discovery, an updated Microsoft Edge on console, and more. https://t.co/MQvT9VyTP0 — Larry Hryb 🏡🎮☁ (@majornelson) September 24, 2021While Stadia works properly on the new version of Microsoft Edge, the same doesn't go for Discord. Xbox users can access Discord through Microsoft Edge on their consoles, and even type into the app's text channels, but microphone support sadly isn't included. If microphone support is somehow added to Discord on the console version of Microsoft Edge, the service could potentially be functional on nearly every major gaming platform. Sony recently invested in Discord and announced that the service would be integrated into PlayStation Network in 2022.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

We can hardly go a few days without news of the next Fortnite collaboration, and today's leak of a Fortnite and Monopoly crossover is just the latest to be revealed. While Epic hasn't officially commented on the licensing deal just yet, a recent datamining effort points to a set of eight new back bling cosmetics taken straight from the classic board game.The eight back bling items mirror the eight player tokens in traditional Monopoly, including the top hat, terrier, rubber duck, battleship, and more. As of now, this appears to be the only crossover content involved in the partnership as far as in-game items go, but that's certainly subject to change since this isn't an official unveiling.Fortnite x Monopoly Cosmetics!?I have no idea if it's a collab but it looks like it, they just got decrypted! pic.twitter.com/qn9k20ORlY — HYPEX (@HYPEX) September 24, 2021The crossover appears not to be part of a broader Monopoly anniversary since last year was the game's celebrated 85th year in stores. More likely, this is just a continuation of a partnership formed previously. Hasbro toy company released Monopoly: Fortnite Edition in 2018, which reimagines the Monopoly board as the Chapter 1 Fortnite map--Tilted Towers is the stand-in for the ritzy Boardwalk, if you're wondering.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Halo Infinite's second multiplayer technical preview is currently live, and it didn't take long for players to discover new weapons that had been previously undisclosed.Tucked away in a custom game settings menu is what appears to be the full list of Halo Infinite weapons. There are 22 in total, and the list includes never-before-seen weapons called the Disruptor and Cindershot.Some players have managed to enable custom games in the preview build, allowing them to take the new weapons, and a few returning favorites, for a test spin. From gameplay footage of the weapons in action (which can be seen above), the Disruptor looks to be an electricity-based sidearm, while the Cindershot appears to be a Forerunner-type weapon that can fire bouncing, explosive balls of energy.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The best mobile games can look like just about anything. A social deception game about a suspicious crew on an alien spaceship. The latest entry in the biggest strategy series in the world. A serious single-player story about love and loss. A game where you, for some reason, must build a boat.A decade ago, smart money said that mobile games would replace consoles as gamers increasingly turned to their phones for convenient fun. But, it’s 2021, and Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo are all still going strong. Paradoxically, the mobile market has never been bigger, with millions of players using their phones to play a wide variety of games, including portable versions of the most popular multiplayer games in the world, like Call of Duty, Fortnite, Genshin Impact, and PUBG.However, none of those games are on this list. Instead, we’ve tried to pick games that are easy to pick up and get into and can be played skillfully without the use of a controller. Because who wants to carry an Xbox One controller with them on the bus? Read on for our picks for the 25 best mobile games available on iOS and/or Android, listed in alphabetical order.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

A Halo Infinite developer has responded to a gameplay video making the rounds about the sci-fi shooter's use of aim assist on PC. Lead sandbox designer Quinn DelHoyo shared some important context about what's actually happening in an attempt to downplay concerns about it.DelHoyo explained that this video looks like an extreme example of aim assist--because it is. The player has gone AFK and the game moves the crosshairs onto the enemy as part of the aim assist feature, which is popular in many online shooters. DelHoyo pointed out that, had the player touched the mouse (or controller, presumably), aim-assist would be "instantly disabled.""Once movement stops, it takes half a second to enable again. This does not come into effect during gameplay," DelHoyo said.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The arrival of the No Time To Die in two weeks feels like something of a milestone in the ongoing state of flux that is film distribution. The latest James Bond is hardly the first of 2020's delayed blockbusters to finally hit screens--F9: The Fast Saga, Black Widow, Jungle Cruise, and A Quiet Place: Part 2 all finally reached theaters this year. But with an original release date of April 2020, No Time To Die was one of the first films to be delayed, and the 18 months between that date and its final US debut on October 8 will be the longest wait for any major movie in the COVID era. It's also a period of time that has seen previously unthinkable shifts in the way Hollywood distributes films and how audiences consume them.One year ago, GameSpot published this article, which tracked the events of 2020 so far, and made some predictions for what would happen next. At that stage, there were still several big movies lined up for theatrical releases in the final three months of the year. Ultimately, none of these arrived as expected--Wonder Woman 1984 debuted on HBO Max at the same time as the theaters that managed to remain open at Christmas, while Soul was sent straight to streaming. Free Guy was pushed deep into 2021, and Coming 2 America was sold off to Amazon and released months later. With no vaccine at that point and a second (or third) wave of COVID-19 about to hit many countries, the future seemed as unpredictable as at any stage of the pandemic.In early December, Warner drew a line in the sand with the shock announcement that it would send every single movie on its 2021 slate to HBO Max on the same day they hit theaters. This wasn't just the films expected in the coming few months, such as Wonder Woman 1984, Godzilla vs. Kong, and Mortal Kombat. It was also hugely anticipated movies that weren't due until the end of 2021--such as Dune and The Matrix Resurrections--when the world might conceivably be a very different place.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
