The mad lads at GameFreak have done it again. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet push the series' overall Pokédex into four figures, and the special 1,000th Pokémon turns out to be a gold coin surfing freak with a fanny pack called Gholdengo. Is it going to sell me crypto? Is it made of crypto?? I can't wait to find out.

     Broforce Forever is a massive final update coming in 2023

If you've forgotten about Broforce, then A) you hate freedom and B) we kind of understand. It came out two entire presidential administrations ago, hitting Steam Early Access way back in 2014 with its ludicrous blend of bro puns, '80s movie references, and pixelated co-op game action. All has been quiet on the Broforce front for the past several years as developer Free Lives has gone onto make other indie hits like Genital Jousting and Gorn, but now the Bros are coming back for one last job called Broforce Forever.

Transgender Awareness Week began on November 13 and ends on November 19, leading to Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20. Although the emblem was initially added to the game in 2021, the Trans@Bungie Inclusion Club used November 17's This Week at Bungie (TWAB) blog post to remind players that the emblem is still available and share the importance of recognizing and supporting transgender and gender nonconforming Guardians.

Granblue Fantasy Relink Playable Demo

Cygames shared its schedule for Granblue Fantasy FES 2022-2023, which will include the latest information about Granblue Fantasy: Relink and a playable demo at the event. The event will be held at the Tokyo Big Sight exhibition center in Tokyo, Japan. It will be held from January 20-22, 2022. Alongside information about Granblue Fantasy: Relink, new information about Granblue Fantasy Versus will also appear.

Information about both titles will appear on January 21, 2022. Information about them will appear during a one hour segment. However, further details have yet to be announced. That said, this will be the very first time Granblue Fantasy: Relink will be playable by the public through this trial. There is no indication that a demo will be made available outside of the event.

In June 2023, Cygames announced Granblue Fantasy: Relink would be delayed into 2023. The reason for the delay being that the developers are looking to create a more polished experience for players. Additionally, the developer stated that new information about the title would appear in December 2022. It is unclear if this has been pushed back, with new developments on the title to strictly appear at Granblue Fantasy FES 2022-2023.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink will release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC sometime in 2023.

Harvestella Romances Options Feel Like Falling in Love with Friends Interests

Romance mechanics in games can be an opportunity to connect with characters you've spent a substantial amount of your life with. Even though they're virtual people, spending 30+ hours in a game might mean you start to care about them, in a way, and want to root for their happiness. Life sims, particularly ones with farming elements like Stardew Valley and Rune Factory, often incorporate that element. Harvestella is no exception, as it ensures there is an opportunity for romance with an array of love interests who both can and can't fight alongside you. How it tackles it, however, makes it stand out. While you do need to be patient and can't immediately start dating and marrying the characters you love, the approach does mean that it feels like your avatar and the other option actually have a history and are connecting when things happen.

Editor's Note: While there will be mention of how relationships with romance options in Harvestella work, there will be no spoilers for anyone's stories or screenshots with spoilers.

To start, getting together with people doesn't feel like it is a chore to check off a daily to-do list. Rather, it's something that develops as you play. In the case of Aria, progression is gated off by story progress. You get a new crystal filled in the chart with every major chapter completed. Here's a quick Harvestella guide to romance to help anyone wondering how to find love and a relationship in the game. Sit back and let it happen.

Harvestella Romances Feel Like Falling in Love with Friends Romance Options Interests

It really is that simple and, the joy of it is, it makes everything feel more natural. Wooing a love interest in Harvestella doesn't mean making a stockpile of mayonnaise and chucking one into their arms while screaming, "Romance!" (Though I mean, if that ain't love, then I don't know what love is.) Sure, some charater quests that open up as you advance the story can involve bringing some items to people. Heine could use some silver ores, for example, and Cres will ask for pink aloe. But these are never random requests. They make sense over the course of their character development.

Likewise, the way it is handled means you can't turn to a guide for Harvestella romance and immediately win a love interest over the course of a single season. Don't worry about forcing folks into your party if they don't fit your gameplay strategy. They aren't going to hate you if you bench them after recruiting them. There's no need to waste time talking to them every day. Just do their quests when they appear. Also, it can be physically impossible to get through certain storylines until you unlock certain locations or hit certain milestones. You can go through Asyl's story rather easily, establishing who he is, getting closer as you see what he's going through as he deals with a substantial loss. Even though you meet Istina in the same chapter, her storyline will remain grayed out and unable to be continued until you visit the Holy Capital Argene for the first time.

Not to mention these extra side stories honestly aren't going to be hot and heavy love affairs. Rather, you're getting to know who they are as people better. You're watching them deal with major life events and supporting them through it. Personally, I'm a little disappointed that both Asyl and Heine's involve grieving and coming to terms with losing someone else. (One backstory like that I can understand, but two?) Still, it feels like these extra side quests are designed to facilitate the player falling in love with them, while also providing evidence for why that Harvestella romance option would feel enough trust and affection to consider becoming your partner.

Harvestella Romances Feel Like Falling in Love with Friends interests options

All this taking it slow also means that love doesn't come until you finish the whole "saving the world" thing. You'll be able to pick who your life partner will be. The mayor will give you a recipe to make a Promise Ring. Juno will talk with you and let you pick who you want to spend the rest of your virtual life with. If you don't put in the time to get to know someone and support them throughout their events, their name won't appear in the list of people you can propose to. Juno will send a letter off, and you'll get a scene where you ask them to be your life partner.

Your priorities are in order in Harvestella. You do what needs to be done to make the world a better place. Now, you can be together with a character who was by your side for the important moments. And, because of the way things are handled, you get to stand by them when they need you too.

Harvestella is available for the Nintendo Switch and PC.

Finally, there's the aforementioned purple monkey.

Here's a closer look at some potential poses.

Final Fantasy XIV Free Login Campaign

From November 18 to December 16, 2022, Final Fantasy XIV players can take advantage of the Free Login Campaign. Naturally, there are some stipulations regarding eligibility, but if you meet these requirements you can access the MMORPG for up to four days entirely for free. Square Enix shared information on how returning players can receive this free game time.

The requirements are fairly simple if you already have an existing Final Fantasy XIV account. In order to access the Final Fantasy XIV Free Login Campaign, you will need to have had at least 30 days of inactivity on your account. This means that your account has gone without having a subscription for said period of time. Additionally, you must have purchased Final Fantasy XIV at any point in the past. This could either be the A Realm Reborn base game, or any pack and expansion.

Keep in mind, however, that once you log into the game the four day period of free game time will immediately begin to tick down. It also does not pause when you log out of the game. So if you want to make the most out of the Free Login Campaign, make sure to pick your days accordingly.

This isn't the first time Square Enix has offered free game time to players. Every so often, Square Enix brings the campaign back. For example, it reappeared in June 2022 and gave players up to 96 hours of free game time.

Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.

This series has been a staple in my life for about the last two decades. I've watched it grow from days of the crude, mid-2000s mod-heavy mishmash that was a typical FSX setup, to the meticulous visual sonata we have today with the 2020 release of the new-gen Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Japanese outlet Fuji News Network broke the story, which alleges that the arrest had to do with the 2020 mobile game Dragon Quest Tact. An English-language report conducted by the Asahi Shimbun newspaper went on to corroborate the story. According to the FNN's report, Naka heard about the development of Dragon Quest Tact back in January 2020 prior to the game's official announcement the month after. During this time, Naka was working with Dragon Quest publisher Square Enix to produce the poorly received 3D platformer Balan Wonderworld.

     Best Warzone 2 marksman rifle for Season 1

Want to know what the best Warzone 2 marksman rifle is? While their usefulness in Modern Warfare 2 is somewhat limited by map size, marksman rifles are a lot more lethal in BR as it offers a far larger island to scope out targets from a distance.

To cut to the chase, the best Warzone 2 marksman rifle is the EBR-14. The marksman rifle category can't keep up with the best Warzone 2 sniper rifles in terms of stopping power, but they offer much better precision and a faster rate of fire. That should come in handy when your foe is just a bit too far away for most other Warzone 2 guns.

     WoW Dragonflight is an

It's no secret that the pressure is on for the next World of Warcraft expansion, WoW Dragonflight, to deliver. With the Shadowlands saga finally at an end and the curtain falling on Sylvanas Windrunner's infamous reign of terror, the MMORPG is very much in need of some new life - Alexstrasza style. As we draw closer to launch, I asked Blizzard's Pat Dawson and Eric Holmberg-Weidler why players who have left to play the likes of Final Fantasy XIV should return to Azeroth's shores.

You need to use the best Genshin Impact Faruzan team comp in order to get the most out of this Anemo bow user. Most four-star characters struggle to break into meta-defining teams, but Faruzan may be an exception to this as she specialises in buffing Anemo abilities.

We're expecting the Genshin Impact Faruzan banner to launch alongside the Scaramouche banner in the Genshin Impact 3.3 update set to arrive in December. You're going to need to find all of Genshin Impact Faruzan ascension materials if you want to level this Anemo character up to reach her full potential.

The Faruzan banner is set to launch during the Genshin Impact 3.3 release date in December alongside the highly anticipated five-star catalyst user, Scaramouche, also known as The Wanderer. Faruzan is the first Anemo user who has been designed to increase the damage of her party, so we're focusing on a Sub-DPS build.

     The best FPS games on PC in 2022

What are the best FPS games on PC? From the classic physics chaos of Half-Life 2 to Splitgate's mind-bending portal warfare, these are the finest FPS games. For more than two decades, FPS games have been the driving force of the PC games industry. They've let us travel from the depths of Hell in Doom to the outer reaches of space in Titanfall 2. Others have taken us on a detour through the likes of Half-Life 2's zombie-infested Ravenholm, while some have embraced futuristic cities.

Some of these games are old, others are new, and all are great. Wolfenstein 2's amazing campaign; Rainbow Six Siege and it's tight tactical multiplayer; Overwatch 2 and its vast array of amazing heroes. No matter what sort of virtual gunplay you're after, the following titles will satisfy your itchy trigger finger. So crack those knuckles, get ready to make all the headshots, and keep in mind that guns will solve all your problems in the following shooty gems. These are the best FPS games on PC.

     How to unlock the Chimera in Warzone 2

Knowing how to unlock the Chimera in Warzone 2 will net you a unique assault rifle, one that acts as a bridge between assault and SMG. The Chimera is one of the few assault rifles that will be viable as a secondary weapon alongside one of the best Warzone 2 sniper rifles, as it doesn't have the damage range to deal with the open spaces of the new Warzone 2 map, but is excellent in close quarters combat.

With an integrated suppressor and subsonic rounds, not only will your shots be silent, but anyone unfortunate enough to be killed by you will remain off the minimap. Much like the best Warzone 2 FSS Hurricane loadout, the Chimera acts as a hybrid between an assault rifle and SMG, giving it a utility that even the best Warzone 2 gun just doesn't have.

     What is the current and next Genshin Impact banner?

Genshin Impact banners rotate every few weeks on a precise schedule, and we always know what to expect thanks to regular updates from Hoyoverse. The developer of the anime game always keeps its fans in the loop with regular Twitter posts and livestreams, so you can plan where you want to spend your hard-earned Primogems.

With a two to three-week turnaround for banners, the roster of Genshin Impact characters is always changing, and the current 3.2 update brings two brand-new Teyvat residents to wish for. Every limited-time character banner - or Event Wish - contains a five-star character, and three four-star characters with increased drop rates. There's also a Weapon banner - Epitome Invocation - which runs alongside each character banner and changes weapons every update.

     Genshin Impact events – all current and upcoming events

Want to know more about the upcoming Genshin Impact events? A new version of Genshin Impact arrives every six weeks, complete with new characters, quests, and events. It's difficult to keep track of which events are currently running and if there are any new ones coming soon, so here's a schedule for all current and upcoming Genshin Impact events.

There are usually a number of Genshin Impact events running simultaneously, and they aren't just in-game events. When a new Genshin Impact character joins the game, the devs launch a web event at the same time - players learn about the latest characters through an interactive story told through a web browser. The rewards for completing different events range from in-game items like primogems and mora, to real life prizes like mouse mats and plushies.

Just like the Genshin Impact banners, most events are only available for a limited time, so it's worth participating as soon as you can. New events are usually added to Genshin Impact after an update, but it's worth keeping an eye out on this page as the devs do like to surprise the community.

Anyone who's had to physically stop me from banging on about Black Sails will confirm that I love a bit of piracy. Games mostly don't do it justice at all, either making "piracy" shorthand for "mindless omnicide for no reason" or slapping a parroty theme onto a generic action game.

Buccaneers! isn't primarily a piracy game, but they're one of its four factions. It doesn't try to be more than a naval combat and light action RPG either, let alone the "real" pirate game I dearly want, but I can't hold that against it either. If I was being reductive, I'd call it a budget hybrid of Sea Of Thieves and Sid Meier's Pirates By Sid Meier Aged 33 And 3/4. It's probably unfair to set such high expectations, but the core design is compelling and enjoyable enough to merit it.

I was already a reader of Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comics when I picked up Telltale's version on Steam in 2012.

We are the Walking Dead, indeed. Telltale demonstrated they understood that from the start of this series.

At some point since I played Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, a switch has flipped in me; I have gone from having stepped off the MCU train, content to watch it chug off into the distance with its remaining passengers, to actively wishing for its violent derailment. I'm saying this to emphasise that I loathe singiing the praises of anything even tangentially related to Marvel, without also revealing that I have stashed a steel chair and bag of thumbtacks under the ring as a surprise attack against Kevin Feige.

Spider-Man is about as Marvel-related as you can get. I said back when the remaster of Insomniac's first Spider-Man game came to PC that the reason to not buy it was that Miles Morales was coming to PC in a few months. A few months has become now. And I must own that Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is a good game. It's a big, bold action adventure full of heroics and quips, and it's still the better Spider-Man game. I think a large part of that is because it's shorter.

DioField Chronicle Free Update Adds a Waltaquin Redditch Story

A free update is coming to The DioField Chronicle, and Waltaquin Redditch will be its star. Square Enix took to Twitter to confirm new content is heading to the game. In addition to the new story starring the Blue Fox, other new content will be added. This update will arrive sometime in March 2023.

As a refresher, Waltaquin is a main character in The DioField Chronicle. She's one of the people who is in charge of the Blue Foxes mercenary group. She's a type of mage in-game known as a Magicker. Due to events of the story, there are certain opportunities where players might not see what's happening in her life during events of the game. This update could offer new insight into her activities.

The announcement also hinted at some of the other things that will be a part of the free The DioField Chronicle update. A new weapon will appear for characters to equip. There will also be new skills that could be used in battle. "Challenges" were referenced as well, but Square Enix didn't offer any hints as to what they could entail.

The free update art also offers a new look at Waltaquin.

Junji Ito Maniac Anime Teaser Offers a Peek at Tomie

Netflix offered another peek at the upcoming Junji Ito Maniac:  Japanese Tales of the Macabre anime series, and it features Tomie. The new teaser offers a quick glimpse at a story starring the infamous character who starred in multiple stories and movies.

While the teaser doesn't specifically note it is a Tomie story, it shows the character and references some bits of lore surrounding her. Namely, we see a very pretty young woman with a beauty mark near her left eye. Photos of her feature eyes or an entire second face on the back or side of her head. (This same element came up in Tomie: Another Face.) The segment ends with Tomie asking two young men, "Hey, guys. I need your help. Will you hear me out?"

Zenless Zone Zero Character Hoshimi Miyabi Introduced

HoYoVerse offered a few more details about one of the characters that will appear in Zenless Zone Zero by briefly introducing Miyabi Hoshimi. Miyabi is affiliated with Section 6. While there are no gameplay details about her yet, her official art shows she's a young woman with cat-like ears that wields a katana.

Miyabi is in charge of Special Operations Section 6 in Zenless Zone Zero. She's known for being a dedicated, busy woman. She also references practicing her skills with the sword in her announcement.

This Zenless Zone Zero character is voiced by Ami Koshimizu. This isn't her first HoYoVerse game. She is also the voice of Beidou in Genshin Impact. As for other titles, she played Yukiko Amagi in multiple Persona 4 games and spin-offs, Mai Shiranui in The King of Fighters XV and cameo appearances, and Rebecca Chambers in Resident Evil Zero.

HoYoVerse introduced quite a few Zenless Zone Zero characters via Twitter. For example, fellow Section 6 member Soukaku came up at the beginning of November 2022. Machico, a singer who plays Tsubasa Ibuki in The Idolmaster, is her voice actress. Another is Corin Wickes, a Victoria Housekeeping Co. member voiced by Hiromi Igarashi. Her actress also played Jack-O' in Guilty Gear.

Zenless Zone Zero is in development for PCs and mobile devices.

Twitter

The situation at social media platform Twitter is uncertain. Thanks to an "ultimatum" sent by the company's new owner and CEO Elon Musk, a significant portion of the remaining staff might have quit. In less than a month, the company also laid off thousands of official Twitter employees. [Thanks, The Verge!]

Musk took possession of Twitter in late October 2022, months after offering to buy the site for about $44 billion USD. After attempting to back out of the deal, he accepted it rather than be forced by trial to hold up his end of it. Shortly after entering the building, he fired much of Twitter's upper management, taking over the CEO role from Parag Agrawal. Days after that, he then initiated a mass layoff. Musk fired roughly half of the active staff (about 3,500 people), alongside an unspecified number of contractors that work with Twitter on things like content moderation.

The latest wave in the fast-moving saga is an email sent by Musk to the remaining staff on November 16, 2022. It demanded they commit to an "extremely hardcore" working culture to build "Twitter 2.0." That "hardcore" quality included working under intense pressure and long hours. Those who did not click "yes" on a linked Google form would be given a severance package and be removed from the company. The ultimatum's deadline was set for 5:00 PM Eastern Time on November 17, 2022. That deadline passed and according to reporting from The Verge, "hundreds" of now-former Twitter employees refused the call. These included teams "critical" to the day-to-day operation of the the platform, such as infrastructure and Site Reliability Engineers (SREs).

Depending on how this latest round of departures shakes out, there may not be enough people left at Twitter to keep things running in a reliable manner. This increases the risk of large-scale or long-lasting outages, as well as of unrecoverable errors cropping up the longer the site goes without people to maintain it.

Twitter is used worldwide by almost 250 million people. It's particularly popular in Japan, where it is used as a newswire for public events and conversation. Many Japanese companies run public announcements and events through Twitter, and almost any game, anime series, or other pop-culture product comes with a bespoke set of hashtags.

disgaea 7 soundtrack

NIS released two videos that will let people sample the soundtrack from Disgaea 7. In both videos, you can hear music that will play in the game, as well as songs that the voice actors sang. It is even possible to hear some of the pieces in the soundtrack that will come in the Collectors' Box edition of the game. [Thanks, Famitsu!]

As Disgaea 7 will have a more Japanese vibe to the environment, the music also draws inspiration from traditional Japanese music. Both videos are around two minutes long and have five pieces each.

You can hear both Disgaea 7 soundtrack sample videos here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuBTU8_MEiA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQlbcwOz3Ys

In the second video, there are three songs that the voice actors sang. It's unclear if these pieces will appear in the game itself. They may be exclusive to the soundtrack. In the sample, you can hear the songs from Hiyori Nitta, Tomo Sakurai, and Kenyuu Horiuchi. So far, as of the time of writing, Nitta's character is the only one you can see on the official site. She will voice Piririka, the heroine of Disgaea 7.

Disgaea 7 will be the latest entry in the long-running Disgaea series. Aside from the game's usual turn-based combat, it will introduce new mechanics such as Dodeka Max, Rank Battles, and Item Reincarnation.

Disgaea 7 will come out on January 26, 2023 in Japan for the PS4, PS5, and Nintendo Switch.

gundam evolution nu

The console launch of Gundam Evolution will be on December 1, 2022, which will coincide with the beginning of Gundam Evolution season 2. On that day, Bandai Namco will also introduce a new unit to use in Gundam Evolution: the Nu Gundam. The Nu Gundam originates from Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack. [Thanks, Game Watch!]

Bandai Namco released a 12-minute long Mission Briefing video to introduce all of the new content. The video includes a brief interview with Kazuya Maruyama, who is a producer for Gundam Evolution. Quite a lot of the video focuses on the Nu Gundam in action, as well as how to utilize the Fin Funnel system.

You can watch the video (with English subtitles) here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epLVqFbaFcw

When hitting an enemy with your main gun as the Nu Gundam, you can put a mark on them, with a maximum of two. You can then use your Fin Funnels to shoot at the enemy with a mark. The game encourages you to shoot the enemy at least four times before activating the Fin Funnel so that you can get the most out of them. The Nu Gundam also has the New Hyper Bazooka. While shooting, the Nu Gundam can move in the direction you input. Lastly, it can block ranged attacks with the Fin Funnel Barrier.

Aside from the Nu Gundam, Gundam Evolution will also get a new Colony Trading Post map. It will feature numerous gimmicks. For example, there is a shutter that will open and close at a set interval. There is also a change to the ranked match system. You will be able to unlock new icons and portraits based on your battle records. Finally, the PC version will get a spectator mode. The console versions of Gundam Evolution will get this later.

Gundam Evolution is readily available on Windows PC. It will appear on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One from December 1, 2022. Season 2 will also begin that date, and that will also be when players can choose the Nu Gundam to pilot.

     Witch Kiriko Halloween Skin Overwatch 2 supportA new Overwatch 2 patch is live, bringing a handful of balance changes to the mix — like with Zarya — as well as bringing back Mei as a playable character. Dominant characters such as Zarya, Sombra, and Genji have been hit with the nerf hammer, and a game-breaking bug involving Mei and Kiriko has been fixed, allowing Mei to return to the roster. Mei was temporarily deleted from the game due to this bug, but her return will allow her to build up more walls and freeze enemies to death once again. Players are most likely excited for some major Zarya nerfs, targeting her barriers' duration and cooldown time. Genji is another major target for nerfs, reducing his ammo and shuriken damage to make him a little less aggressive in the backline. Sombra will also see nerfs to her hacks, reducing the duration of hacks as well as reducing the damage dealt to hacked targets. These will hopefully tone down these frustrating characters and give the spotlight to others for a change. &n...

     Modern Warfare 2 warzone 2 How To Build The Best Bas P ClassThe first season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 has arrived. As always, a new season means that some fresh weapons have been added to the mix. One of these weapons is the BAS-P submachine gun and, with the best attachments, you can build a strong class to take to your next Modern Warfare 2 or Warzone 2 match. The BAS-P's main weakness is damage range. Although its strong in close-quarter combat, it does fall behind other submachine guns at further ranges. Therefore, this class aims to improve damage range, while enhancing mobility to make the weapon even better in short range battles.

     Miles Morales Pc Port 1The PC port of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is here to join its big brother. You'll no doubt be shocked to learn that the game looks and plays exactly like the original. I mean, it's got the same city, the same engine, and all that jazz. You probably weren't expecting a world of difference. Like the base game, the spin-off is a good port with the exact same performance. Again, that means the game is fairly processor-intensive, so if you're using a crummy CPU, you're probably not going to get high fps in the city itself. I didn't have a single crash and experienced no hitches or anything weird. I know, I know, some things are hard to mess up. But we've got more Spider-Man and that's obviously a good thing. The biggest difference is that Sony is experimenting a bit with just how willing you are to get wrapped up in the web of account connections. You can choose to connect a PSN account to your Steam account for some little bo...

     Miles Morales Pc Worth It 1Releasing Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales on PC as a standalone game a few months after the main game debuted on the platform is a bit strange. After all, both were easy to get as a bundle when the expansion came out on PlayStation 5. It's even stranger that it's retailing for only $10 USD less than said main game when it has notably less content. Still, the allure of a new story, new abilities, and new enemies joining the fray in a beloved open-world series is quite enticing regardless of any other details. So the question stands – is Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales worth it on PC? As is clear by the game's title, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is another entry in Insomniac's Spider-Man series, this time focusing on the character Miles Morales. The expansion begins with Miles joining Peter on a trip to aid in a prisoner transport. Things go awry and Peter gets knocked down for the count. All hope seems lost until Miles man...

One of these weapons is a sniper rifle known as the Victus XMR and, with the best attachments, you can build a class that can take over any Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 match. Arguably, the Victus XMR is the strongest sniper rifle in multiplayer. The base weapon deals the highest damage out of every other sniper and it already boasts a high amount of range and accuracy. This class will focus on providing you with more mobility to make the weapon more versatile and allow you to take out enemies at every range.

The original CHOC did quite well, it seems, and so here I am reviewing its follow-up, the CHOC2. "We want to explore the limits of design and innovation," states the PB Tails website, and the CHOC2 certainly lives up to that statement. But just because something is unique does not mean it's good. Let's take a look at this intriguing little controller and see if its unique flair ends up being a strength or a weakness.
