Helldivers 2’s worst weapon just got a serious glow-up

Ah, theHelldivers 2Adjudicator weapon. A not-quite DMR, not-quite Assault Rifle, sent out to languish among other, actually useful guns by its creator, Arrowhead Game Studios. Well, one big ol’ balance patch later, and this is my new go-to primary rifle. Why are people flocking to the Adjudicator in Helldivers 2? From yesterday’s patch: The patch notes are minor-looking. Quaint, even. But don’t be fooled, dear reader, these aremeaningfulchanges. Enough to transform this once joke of a weapon into the bane of any enemy smaller than a mid-sized SUV....

Help SpellTower take down Angry Birds, Draw Something

It’s not like I have something againstAngry Birds SpaceorDraw Something(though the latter is getting kind of old already), but I really like Zach Gage’sword/puzzlegameSpellTower, and I’d really like to see this little game take down Zynga and Rovio. The reality is that it probably won’t happen, but that’s not stopping Gage from trying. He dropped the price of his game down to $0.99, and that helped the game hit #3 on the iTunes Store charts, right under the big guns....

How big is Cyberpunk 2077?

Cyberpunk 2077is sizeable; no one’s contesting that. The specifics of justhowbig the game is, though, get a tad murky in some discussions. That’s especially true now thatCyberpunk 2077: Phantom Libertyis officially out. This DLC, combined with the game’s massive 2.0 update, means that CD Projekt RED’s flagship FPS RPG has grown a fair bit since it first came outback in 2020. In other words, things changed, and today, we’re looking at a bigger, broader, and – dare we say it – better game thanCyberpunk 2077has ever been....

Injustice DLC quietly slides onto Wii U eShop

Also includes skin pack previously only available in Japan [Header fromThumbs and Ammo] It is but one item in a long list of ways Wii U owners have been getting shafted, but NetherRealm’s decision todelay all DLCfor the Wii U version ofInjustice: Gods Among Usuntil a nebulous “Summer” window was poopy nonetheless. These kinds of muck-ups are making it very easy for consumers toavoidWii U software, which seems counterintuitive to publishers’ quest to ensure that their games actually get sold....

Let’s show off our Animal Crossing islands here

Don’t worry, I have a permit for that It’s been a little over a week sinceAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsreleased and already a good chunk of new island reps have a groove going with how their island is developing. I’d bet that a lot of people, at the very least, have the plots figured out for around three new residents, or perhaps even upgraded Resident Services into a full-fledged building. ButAnimal Crossinghas always been a game about going at your own pace, so it doesn’t really matter what stage your island is at....
