Kotaku Saturday, December 25, 2021 12:00 PM  So you just got a Nintendo Switch. Lucky you! Or maybe you got one for someone else and want to help them make the most of it. How kind! In either case, here are some good things to know after you open up everyone's favorite portable hybrid console. |
Kotaku Saturday, December 25, 2021 11:19 AM  Across the country, folks everywhere are unwrapping their new Nintendo portable hardware, booting up their accounts, and trying to buy new digital games. But over the last few hours, per social media, the Nintendo Switch storefront known as the eShop has been in and out of commission. Sometimes it loads, albeit… |
Kotaku Saturday, December 25, 2021 11:00 AM  Congratulations, you got a next-gen console. It's hard to believe that over a year after the launch of the Xbox Series X/S, it's still so damn hard to find one. But you did it. Or someone who really loves you did and gifted it to you for the holidays. How nice of them! Either way, now that you got a new Xbox, you… |
Kotaku Saturday, December 25, 2021 10:00 AM  So, you got your hands on a PlayStation 5. Congrats! You're officially in the next generation of console gaming, a member of an exclusive club allowed to play games about malicious space tentacle monsters and whatever the hell a lombax is.

Kotaku Saturday, December 25, 2021 9:00 AM  I've always had a thing for June Chikuma's music, though it took me a while to realize it.

PCGamesN Saturday, December 25, 2021 10:59 AM  It's another day in the two weeks leading up to the new year, and you know that means - yet another entry in Epic's fortnight (ha) of daily free PC games. Today's giveaway is one of the best entries in one of PC gaming's most beloved genres: Prey, the excellent immersive sim from the masters of the form at Arkane. You can grab Prey for free on the usual Epic Games Store promotion page from now until December 26 at 8am PST / 11am EST / 4pm GMT, at which point it'll be replaced by another freebie. As always, you'll 'purchase' the game at a price of zero dollars, and it'll remain in your library just like any game you might pay money for. "In Prey," the official blurb explains, "you awaken aboard Talos I, a space station orbiting the moon in the year 2032. You are the key subject of an experiment meant to alter humanity forever – but things have gone terribly wrong." In practice, that means exploring the open-ended halls of Talos I, surviving the gooey monsters that have taken up residence, and (possibly) gathering access to some unhuman abilities yourself.
