Hacker Claims To Find Hint Of An 8-Player Mode For The New Smash Bros.

By necessity, Super Smash Bros. on the 3DS is a very different game from its predecessors.

Nobody Knows How To Permanently Kill Shadow of Mordor’s Orcs

Ever since Shadow of Mordor came out, many gamers have taken to its unique brand of orc-killing with a gusto. There’s just one problem: some of these orcs keep coming back from the dead. And while developer Monolith says this is partly an intentional feature, they haven’t given me a straight answer for how it…

Someone Took All The Items From A Skyrim Town

Here’s one crazy Skyrim hoarder who stole every single item from the town of Solitude, managed to take it all to Whiterun, and somehow grabbed a screenshot without burning down his PC. His initial plan was to place the items in his home in Whiterun, a town far away from Solitude, but as you can…

Why Fatal Frame is My Favorite Horror Series

There are more than a few popular horror game series out there—from classics like Resident Evil and Silent Hill to more modern hits like Dead Space and Amnesia.

Using the Wii U GamePad as a Ghost-Killing Camera

As a long-time fan of the Fatal Frame series, I can see the perceived appeal of having the Wii U’s GamePad with its gyro sensor and dedicated screen acting as a proxy for the game’s ghost-killing camera. But while it works in Zero: Nuregarasu no Miko (Fatal Frame V), I’d rather just use my big…

Final Fantasy XIII Is 60 GB On Steam

Hope you’ve got a big hard drive! Final Fantasy XIII, which came out today on Steam, will take up a whopping 60 GB of disk space—probably because of all of those cut-scenes. Check it out: It’s locked at 720p, too, so you might want to wait for someone to conjure up an HD patchbefore you…
