No sign of Hawk or Animal, though Devolver Digital has announced that hyper-gooey FPS sequelShadow Warrior 3will be blowing up on PS4 and Xbox One when it launches later this year. While the bombastic action game had been previously revealed for PC, console editions were yet to be confirmed. In addition to the announcement, developer Flying Wild Hog released a new video —exclusively to IGN— that shows off some of the hellish encounters, locations, enemies, and weapons that will be entering the life of long-sufferin’, hard-rockin’ hero Lo Wang....

My man Ever since I was little, I adored watching Shaq play. Whether it was on the Magic, Lakers, or any of the other teams, he was the sole reason I got into basketball and started playing it growing up. I even likedShaq Fu, despite its many, many flaws. That’s why I’m so excited to see that the newShaq Fu: A Legend Rebornproject actually happening, In fact, Shaq actually promised a “surprise,” as he will be in attendance for The Game Awards....

Includes online fixes and difficulty reduction Well, that was fast.Announcednot even a few days ago,Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s1.2.0 update is now live. Amongst the small list of fixes coming to the all-star fighter is the promise that online stability has been addressed. There are also a few changes to fighters (of which the update list doesn’t go into specifics) and a decrease in difficulty for “Approaching Fighters.” That last point should be very welcomed by some of you....

Wolf Link still sucks Nintendo’s ludicrously vague patch notes forBreath of the Wildhave led fans to start testing out various things to figure out what a “more pleasant game experience” actually means. In the case of patch 1.12, it looks like Link will have to actually pay for his arrows. According tonumerous people, the infinite arrow exploit (that I had no idea existed) has been removed from the game. Before hand, you could stand just out of reach of an enemy archer and have them continuously shoot arrows at you....

What if they still made movie tie-in games? I’ll be the first to admit it, this story’s a little strange. I’m pretty sure we’ve never posted anything fromHalloweenCostumes.combefore. Movies and TV shows tend not to have full console releases anymore, as the tie-in games we see today seem to have shifted to mobile, where it’s easier and faster to develop a title. So it’s an interesting “what if” exercise to think about what some game boxes might look like if the SNES were still the dominant console, still receiving licensed movie and television tie-in games....

Fresh innards A secret about me: I’m scared of hospitals. I have a really hard time going into one. I can’t see people being treated, or worse, on a stretcher. Needles and equipment scare me. I can’t even watch medical dramas on television. It’s a problem. While I’ve cut plenty of folks up in Atlus’Trauma Centergames, I’m kind of scared to jump intoSurgeon Simulator. This new trailer for upcoming PS4 releaseSurgeon Simulator: Anniversary Editionmakes it seem a bit less scary, and that’s mostly because it’s pretty funny....

Tadarok Shrine can be one of the more frustrating shrines inTears of the Kingdom.Not only is the shrine itself difficult, but it is also fairly troublesome to find. We’ve covered everything you need to know to complete the shrine below, but we’ll start with how to find it. How to find Tadarok Shrine inTears of the Kingdom Tadarok Shrine is located in the Hyrule Field region ofHyrule. The closest fast travel point to the shrine for most players is Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower....

So wrong, yet so right On weekdays, I typically wake up to a couple hundred fresh emails sitting in my inbox. When events are happening, like this week’s Game Developers Conference in San Francisco (which I’m not even attending!), things can get considerably more wild. Everyone has something to pitch. Against all odds, the first email that caught my attention today was, no joke, “A Bloodborne werewolf jerking off.” I couldn’t not click it immediately....

Not to call you all out, beloved readers, but many of you called that reallyslick Neo Geo handheldfake when we told you about it earlier this year. To be fair, the images we had looked pretty janky, but even then I would have bet you 1,000 Megas that it was real. Now weknowthat this is a real product, set to ship later this year, following the 20th anniversary of the original console....

Also coming to PS4 and Xbox One I haven’t even touchedThe Binding of Isaac: Afterbirthyet (I’m waiting for the PlayStation 4 version since that’s where my save file is), yet Edmund McMillen and Tyrone Rodriguez arealready talkingup the nextexpansion,Afterbirth+. Rodriguez says it will be paid DLC just likeAfterbirth, but will include new items, enemies, and “rad” bosses. These additions are almost expected at this point, but there’s more. Mod support is coming, though you will have to pay for the expansion to use it....

I want more Samurai Jack now From start to finish (yes, the ending was fine), I really enjoyed the new season ofSamurai Jack. It was a joy seeing the character again in a new light, and watching Aku psycho-analyze himself was one of the best skits of 2017. I didn’t hesitate to watch this new short from mashed then, which billed itself asThe Witcherin the style ofSamurai Jack. I think they pretty much nailed the nuances of both Jack and Geralt — which are actually a lot alike....

What’s this? A free-to-play shooter that looks halfway decent? In the wake ofAliens: Colonial Marines, the TimeGate Studios name may not inspire confidence; despite this, the trailer for the company’s upcoming free-to-play third-person shooterMinimumhas me curious. It’ll be arriving on Steam in an alpha capacity on April 16, but for now,we have an FAQto glean information from. In short, the game sounds risky in a potentially great way. Ranging from exploding ice snipers to flaming katanas, weapons will make use of an upgrade system not unlikeContra‘s tried-and-tested mechanic....
