Kotaku Wednesday, June 22, 2022 10:50 PM  Super Mario Odyssey on the Nintendo Switch? It's a 1.5-player joint (it's not true co-op, nobody wants to be the hat). This modded version of Super Mario Odyssey? Well, it's a 10-player game, which makes it looks more like the Super Mario Multiverse. |
Kotaku Wednesday, June 22, 2022 8:00 PM  It's easy to forget in 2022, now that it feels like we get a new or remastered Yakuza game every six months, that for a very long time the series was MIA from Western shores, in large part down to the disastrous decisions made by Sega for the original game's release back in 2006. |

PCGamesN Wednesday, June 22, 2022 6:57 PM  If you pine for the days of 16-bit gaming and think RPGs peaked on the Super Nintendo, then the latest Elden Ring demake is for you. Sort of. YouTubers 64 Bits, a group of animators who make videos of anything ranging from game demakes to Pikachu with a gun, posted the Elden Ring Demake for SNES to kick off their seven-part series of demaking popular games, but there's a slight catch. Unlike the Game Boy Elden Ring demake or Bloodborne for PS1, you can't actually play this version of the action RPG.

PCGamesN Wednesday, June 22, 2022 6:13 PM  If you've ever driven around Night City and thought a dose of Eorzea is exactly what the metropolis needed, a new Cyberpunk 2077 mod may be music to your ears – quite literally. Final Fantasy XIV Radio from NexusMods user miku393 lets you build a customized FFXIV playlist and add it to the action-RPG, so it plays whenever you turn the radio on. You need a few other mods for this one to work, namely, a previous radio mod that acts as a foundation. Once you're set up, though, just add your song files into the mod folder, and that's all it takes to cruise the city to the sounds of Answers and Return to Oblivion.

PCGamesN Wednesday, June 22, 2022 5:36 PM  You don't get a lot of time to get to know the enemies in Warhammer 40K Darktide, because like other Left 4 Dead-inspired co-op games, the object is to mow them down as quickly as you possibly can. But Darktide co-writer Dan Abnett, who's also the author of many popular 40K novels, says the ominous figures emerging from the shadows in the Tertium underhive do have a story, and it's a sad one. There's a new post by Abnett up on the Darktide Steam page, and it explains the background behind some of the enemies we'll be facing when the Warhammer 40K: Darktide release date rolls around in August. Many of them are humans corrupted by chaos, including a regiment of some of the Imperium's finest troops, the Moebian Sixth.

PCGamesN Wednesday, June 22, 2022 4:10 PM  The League of Legends patch 12.12 notes are now available for the live update. Following the former LoL patch 12.11, thanks to the new update we now know what Riot Games is bringing to its popular MOBA game next – and it's filled with skins and a lot of champion changes. After the introduction in LoL update 12.11 of the brand new champion Bel'Veth, the Empress of the Void it seemed Riot Games was going a little easier with patch 12.12, but that was apparently incorrect. Bel'Veth has received a nerf, and many other champions have received changes. Despite the last update appropriately featuring a number of appropriate summer-themed skins for several characters, 12.12 adds ice-themed skins for Caitlyn, Illaoi, and Kayn, which all add new visual effects, sound effects, and animations. Still in the world of skins, we've also got a new Ashen Knight variation for Pantheon - the first new one in this series since patch 12.6.

PCGamesN Wednesday, June 22, 2022 6:28 PM  The next big horror game from the creators of Dead Space arrives in December, and developer Striking Distance Studios hopes that The Callisto Protocol will become "the start of a franchise." Nevertheless, there are still plenty of questions left about the former PUBG spin-off, so PCGamesN spoke to Striking Distance to get some answers. After impressive gameplay showings at PlayStation State of Play and Summer Game Fest, including the reveal of the awesome gravity gun weapon, anyone looking forward to The Callisto Protocol will undoubtedly want to know more about the scary space game. PCGamesN spoke with Striking Distance chief creative officer Chris Stone – who was the animation director on Dead Space – about the team's inspirations, why they ditched the PUBG connection, and how The Callisto Protocol improves on Dead Space.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, June 22, 2022 6:30 PM  Based on recent market analysis by TrendForce, it appears that SSD prices could continue to drop later this year due to oversupply. It seems like the production volume Kioxia and WDC are growing as the year progresses. However, the increasing sentiment is that the destocking process in the Chinese market will not match projections, creating an overstock situation. Experts suggest a price decrease around 3-8% in late summer and fall of this year for consumer SSDs. For enterprise and 3D NAND SSDs, that figure could reach as high as 10%. If you are interested in these deals, make sure to keep an eye on prices around that time. Will price drops make PCI 4.0 SSDs worth it? Peppy SSDs based on the high-bandwidth PCIe 4.0 spec used to be quite expensive. In the past few years, high-end PC building also became pricey. As we've already seen with graphics cards though, price gouging for many components has finally fallen off. Back in early 2021, it was common to see PCIe 4.0 SSDs li... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, June 22, 2022 6:00 PM  The gaming industry has been no stranger to the global supply chain shortage that's been going on since mid 2020. Graphics cards, SSDs, consoles, and now even Xbox controllers have fell victim to shortage. Microsoft has recently confirmed the latter (cheers, IGN), stating that customers worldwide will be hard-pressed to find a new Xbox controller for a while. Microsoft confirmed the shortage of Xbox controllers in a statement to VGC. The company acknowledged that it's been "hard finding Xbox Wireless Controllers right now due to supply disruptions." In the meantime, it's trying to pacify consumers by stating that it's "working as fast as possible with our manufacturing and retail partners to improve this." Based on exactly where you are in the world, you may or may not strike some gold. For instance, at of the time of writing, the official Xbox Amazon US storefront has listings that indicate controllers won't be delivered un... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, June 22, 2022 5:15 PM  Announcements of retro jetliners for Microsoft Flight Simulator are becoming more and more common. In fact, Just Flight is swooping in to add yet another of such entries into the bucket with the reveal of its upcoming Fokker 100 project, which is aiming to take to the skies of Microsoft Flight Simulator some time in 2023. The Fokker 100 isn't incredibly old; it was introduced to public service back in 1088 with only 283 of the type ever built. So it wasn't a particularly large seller. It mainly found use with Australian carriers like Virgin Australia, QantasLink and Alliance, though other carriers like American Airlines and USAir also bought a few units. Seeing that the Fokker 100 is classified as a regional jet, it primarily competed with smaller jets like the CRJ-100/200 and the Embraer ERJ and E-Jet family. Modern aircraft of this type include planes like the Airbus A220. The classic Fokker 100 is capable of carrying just 97 passengers with a range of up to 1,710 miles a... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, June 22, 2022 4:30 PM  A few years back, developers Nightdive Studios and Westwood Studios revealed that they had an updated re-release of a 1997 Blade Runner game in the works. They originally intended to release this remaster, titled Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition, sometime during 2020. However, several technical hurdles as well as "a heaping pile of lost source code" led to both studios delaying the game indefinitely. Two years have passed since then without much word on the game, but now both studios have a major surprise in store for those who have waited patiently. As it turns out, players can purchase Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition as soon as tomorrow. For those wondering what this old Blade Runner game entails, it functions as a point-and-click adventure title that tells an original story set within the Blade Runner universe. Players will have to put their investigative skills to the test in a dynamic world that can make each playthrough distinct from the other in some way. This wo... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, June 22, 2022 4:00 PM  Rune Factory 5 was previously only available on Nintendo Switch, but the JRPG will soon release on PC.
