 Posted on March 2, 2023  |  2 minutes  |  355 words  |  Patria Henriques

A few days ago you may have seen this Reddit post highlight a peculiar message in the Apex Legends kill feed. Sandwiched in-between the usual murder and death was the comment "a nessy appears". Mysterious and unexplained - until now. After community manager Jay Frechette confirmed that "someone is on to something", naturally, the internet had to investigate. It turns out the message appears when a player finds a small dinosaur toy or " [Read More]

Dark Chronicle | Eurogamer.net

These are dark days for RPG fans. Not only are reviewers making puns in the very first line of their articles but, worse still, the NTSC to PAL conversions are slower and less frequent than ever. The recent news of Suikoden IV's development only served as a sorry reminder of this fact. Sure, we're all happy to hear of another title in a quality series, but we'd be a lot happier to see the third game in Europe. [Read More]

Fallout 76 players are nabbing unreleased items from a secret "developer room"

 Posted on March 2, 2023  |  5 minutes  |  900 words  |  Patria Henriques

Bethesda seems to have something of a war on its hands over Fallout 76's most powerful items. After several weeks of problems with players creating copies of items through duplication glitches, some have now figured out how to access a secret "developer room" in Fallout 76. This developer room contains plans for every item in the game, including top-tier weapons and unreleased goodies which are supposed to arrive in upcoming updates. [Read More]

Final Fantasy 15 - Adamantoise battle strategy for the Let Sleeping Mountains Lie quest

 Posted on March 2, 2023  |  4 minutes  |  660 words  |  Trudie Dory

Adamantoise in Final Fantasy 15 is one of the biggest trials you'll face, but not necessarily because of it's challenge. The mountain-sized creature has a huge amount of HP, and is a war of attrition to vanquish. We'd recommend getting as high a level as possible - we did it at level 45, taking around three hours - as the more damage you can dish out the faster it will go. [Read More]

It sounds like Tequila Works' new Stadia game Gylt will come to other platforms too

 Posted on March 2, 2023  |  3 minutes  |  618 words  |  Trudie Dory

Tequila Works' new game Gylt was announced by Google as a Stadia exclusive. It says it in the title of the announcement trailer, embedded below, and in the video's description. But what kind of exclusive is it? I ask because Gylt is currently in a problematic position. Problematic because the only way to play it, when it arrives as a Stadia launch title on 30th November, is forking out £120 for the Founder's Edition bundle, because until the Base model comes out in 2020, you have no other choice.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super benchmarks: slower than RX 5700 XT

 Posted on March 2, 2023  |  11 minutes  |  2149 words  |  Fernande Dalal

After years of releasing 'Ti' cards as mid-gen refreshes and top-of-the-line flagships, Nvidia changed tack in late summer 2019 with the release of the RTX 2060 Super and 2070 Super. Though the heroic naming scheme takes a bit of getting used to, these cards serve the same purpose they always have: stopping rival AMD from winning a certain price/performance bracket with a slightly faster take on an existing GeForce GPU at a winning price.
