NBA 2K14 Keeps Crashing, but 2K Sports Says It Knows What’s Wrong

A recently released patch for the Xbox One version of NBA 2K14 appears to have done little to solve the repeated crashes occurring in the game’s MyCareer mode. While 2K Sports says it knows what the problem is, it has no timetable on when a solution may arrive. Server problems have bothered NBA 2K14 players…

Destiny Will Be Out On September 9, 2014

Bungie’s big new multiplayer shooter, Destiny, has a release date. September 9 of next year for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 and PS4. The news comes via Bungie themselves.

Bigby who? Is he the guy next to Jack? The second episode of Fables, Smoke & Mirrors, is almost ready for prime time, so Telltale Games decided to call in a little star power to finish the job. That handsome blond fellow? He’s Jack, aka Jack Frost, aka Jack the Giant Killer, aka not really…

Sony says November’s top-selling PS4 game, not including PS3->PS4 digital upgrades, is… Flower! Not my first guess. Check out the full November chart right here

Not Sure if Dance Moves or Assassin’s Creed IV Glitch

Weird things can happen during Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’s fights, and while the game is about pirates, which means barrels full of rum, these moves might be too much even for Edward Kenway. Here’s the full clip by YouTuber BenBuja. I wouldn’t bat an eye this happened in a Devil May Cry game. Edward’s…

Final Fantasy XIV‘s Finest New Features Coming December 17

I really love the reborn Final Fantasy XIV, but it’s the sort of love that can’t be fully consummated until I can own my own in-game estate and fight a giant, crown-wearing Moogle. Thank goodness for December 17’s massive patch 2.1. It’s got everything. I suppose some players are looking forward to the advancement of…

If You Love Final Fantasy X-2, You’ll Love Lightning Returns

When people ask me what Lightning Returns is like, I always respond that it’s a lot like Final Fantasy X-2. A lot of people seem to take this as an insult to Lightning Returns. It’s not. While I feel like I am in the minority, I loved FFX-2 and much of what made it so…

Daisenryaku Perfect: Ruler of the Battlefield, delayed like eight times, has another release date: February 6, 2014. The previously announced Xbox 360 version of the game, however, appears to have vanished from the game’s official site. I eagerly await the next delay!

Lightning Returns Isn’t Revolutionary, But It Is a Lot of Fun

Few sequels are as different as Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is from the other titles in the FFXIII series. It has a new world and a battle system so highly modified as to be nearly unrecognizable. But when it comes down to it, these changes are all for the good as they make for…

See PlayStation and Xbox Controllers Evolve Before Your Eyes

A new generation means new controllers—but the road to the current PlayStation 4 and Xbox One controllers was full of tweaks. Not all of these changes are visual, of course, but it’s still cool to look at these GIFs by Gadget Love and see just how much has changed since the PS1 and Xbox days.…

Reminder: The Witcher 3 Is Going to Look Pretty Damn Good

The last part of CD Projekt Red’s trilogy will be hitting the PS4. It looks pretty freaking great. Watch the trailer and you’ll see glimpses of bustling medieval hamlets, ominous storm-drenched beaches and impressive-looking combat.

Square’s Going All Out For The Final Fantasy X/X-2 Remakes

Here are a bunch of new trailers for the upcoming HD remakes of sports sim Final Fantasy X and pop star emulator Final Fantasy X-2, which will be out for PS3 on March 18 (and Vita at some point in the undetermined future, unless that version is mysteriously cancelled.) They’re looking good. Certainly better than…

Battlefield 4‘s one-hit-kill bug might be dying today on PS4. The delayed update due earlier this week has started rolling out for Sony’s next-gen platform. But DICE warns that this patch isn’t a total fix for some of the game’s other issues

Is this… The Valvengers? The Hulk, Hawkeye, Iron Man, Nick Fury, Black Widow, Captain America and Thor (poor Thor) all transformed into Valve characters. With the Scout and the Soldier from Team Fortress 2 and a zombie from Left 4 Dead, teaming up with Gordon Freeman, this team probably wouldn’t function smoothly. Dayshot is an…

I’d Have Killed A Man To Go To Gran Turismo 6’s Launch

I’ve had a tumultuous relationship with Gran Turismo over the years. I used to love it. Then I hated it, bored of how sterile and lifeless it had become. Now…I appreciate it for what it is. I’ve got Forza for when I want to get behind a car and go “WWWAAHAHHHHAHAHHAH”. For those times I…
