You’ve probably heard about how a comet hit the Fortnite map by now. There’s a reason so many people were transfixed by this cosmic encounter: developer Epic made it feel like an event, worthy of wonder in the same way a real-world solar eclipse would be. In an age of instant social media updates, constant…
Now that the Fortnite comet has hit, the map is doted with craters. The biggest crater, as we all know, is located at Dusty Divot. You can’t really go to Dusty without entering a fight now. Regardless, one group of fearless Fortnite fans challenged themselves to build over the entire crater, and it turned into…
The new Fortnite season brought more than craters and important dances. It seems that Epic is planting the seeds for something elaborate. Perhaps even a storyline of sorts, based on new areas that players are finding. While the new update has only been live for less than a day at this point, Fortnite players are…
Back in March, Epic Games announced a “Boogie Down” contest where players submitted dance videos for a chance to have their moves added to the game as an emote. Winners were announced, and a champion was crowned. The community seemingly hated the results, though. In first place came Twitter user @Populotus: Per contest rules, Populotus…
After weeks of build-up, Fortnite’s comet has finally smashed the map. Tilted Towers still stands, but Dusty Depot? There’s a crater there now. (It’s also called Dusty DIVOT now.) Better yet, the point of impact is surrounded by rocks that will let players mess around in low gravity. Epic really went all out for this.…
Fortnite’s emotes have taken on a life of their own: in the last two weeks, I’ve seen kids and adults replicating the game in real life. If you watch sports, you’ve likely seen goals or good plays celebrated through emotes. And if you play Fortnite, you’ve definitely had some jerk dance over your cold, lifeless…
Every week, a ton of games come out for the Nintendo Switch. While it’s great to have so many options to choose from, sorting through these titles on the digital storefront really sucks. It’s hard to find what you want, or what you should be interested in. Discoverability is a tough issue that seemingly nobody…
Asemblance, the mindfucky science-fiction thriller inspired by Black Mirror, is getting a new entry in the anthology. In Asemblance: Oversight, you play a scientist who is trying to recreate the human mind. My guess? There’s already an ARG for this out there.
Splatoon 2 got a big update yesterday that added tons of new gear, weapons, a new stage, balance tweaks, and even Callie. I logged in today and immediately spent all my money on some hot new threads. Guess it’s time to grind at Grizzco again!
Fortnite got a big patch last night, but one of the changes to the game isn’t listed anywhere. To see it, you’ll have to head down to Tilted Towers, where Epic has added some new items on a roof that seem to poke fun at players waiting for the comet event to unfold. As many…
God of War releases today on the PS4, meaning that reviews for the high-profile exclusive are now on the internet. You might read one of these assessments. The developers of the game also read these reviews, and after years of hard work and toil, it’s an emotional experience. God of War director Cory Barlog uploaded…
Sometimes, a weapon is only as strong as we believe it to be. Fortnite recently saw a game-wide shift in how people use a weapon type, and it’s all because people are thinking about those firearms in a different way. The developers didn’t actually change anything under the hood, but everyone is approaching the game…
Rumors abound that tryhard central Tilted Towers will become a crater at the end of the current Fortnite season. Some players, however, didn’t want to wait until the end of April to see the comet event conclude. Instead, these fans took matters into their own hards. Fortnite allows players to build structures, yes, but also…
Fortnite’s big space mystery continues to ramp up and baffle people. Today, players looking up will notice there’s not just one comet, but rather a variety of burning objects falling from the heavens. But what does it mean?? Since yesterday, all Fortnite chatter has revolved around one thing: players believe that the comet will likely…
Every week or so, Fortnite gets new weapons and items. They sound cool as hell, and some even radically alter the game in novel ways. Notice my use of “sound” here, though. I wouldn’t really know. I am suffering through an agonizing Fortnite curse that always keeps these fabled items just out of my reach,…
Rockstar says that GTA Online’s “money freezing” exploit, where players sprout huge stunt tracks onto Los Santos, has been patched on PS4.
If you tried to log into Fortnite last night and couldn’t get past the start screen, you’re not alone. The wildly popular battle royale game has had server issues for over a day now. Sixteen hours ago, Epic, the developer, announced that Fortnite was having login issues. A few hours later, the game came down:…
One of the biggest flaws in Nintendo’s portable console is that you can’t back up your data: if you lose your system, or somehow get your data corrupted or wiped, that’s it. It’s gone. But thanks to a burgeoning hacking scene, Switch fans are now adding features that the Switch desperately needs. Bernardo Giordano, a…
Last night, October’s very own hopped back onto Twitch with Fortnite star Tyler “Ninja” Blevins. While the pair didn’t break any records this time around, the subject of Drake’s upcoming album did come up. Apparently, there’s a chance Drake might spit some Fortnite-related fire soon. A clip of the conversation is circulating on social media…
As of this writing, a couple hundred people are collectively controlling Mario via a Twitch broadcast. And despite the inherent chaos of Twitch chat, these players are actually making progress in Super Mario Odyssey. Community Controller is a channel that has recently dedicated itself to showcasing interactive livestreams of Switch games. The channel started out…
