[ad_1] And so began my frenemy relationship with Nook, someone you always end up owing in Animal Crossing. He means well, but you’ll quickly notice you end up doing most of his grunt work. Compared to the real world, though, he’s an angel. Nook may charge you an eye-popping amount of bells to upgrade your […]

‘Minecraft’ library helps you dodge news media censorship
[ad_1] You can also see details for the current state of press freedom in 180 countries. The library is a technical achievement in its own right. It resembles a giant neo-classical museum, complete with country-specific wings and huge book collections. You can’t tear the library apart, but you can add more if you have the […]
‘Dreams’ creators can apply to sell their work beyond the PS4
[ad_1] You aren’t guaranteed to get in. The beta is only open to Early Access members “in good standing” with a body of work, and Media Molecule will want to know what you’re planning, when you hope to finish it and whether or not you’re willing to provide feedback. This could still be a big […]
Google details what you need to play Stadia games in 4K on the web
[ad_1] However, you might notice what’s not present: any mention of Mac support. Much like YouTube in Safari, Apple’s resistance to VP9 over patent issues (it prefers royalty-free formats like AV1) makes official 4K support unlikely. Take heart, though. As 9to5Google observed, the unofficial Stadia+ extension for Chrome can force 4K on Macs if you’re […]

EA suspends live esports events due to coronavirus outbreak
[ad_1] The company announced its decision shortly after rival Activision Blizzard canceled its live Overwatch matches and made all Call of Duty matches online-only affairs. Both gaming giants are also shutting down offices and asking employees to work from home. EA previously closed international offices in Seoul, Milan and other locations for safety reasons, but […]
‘Call of Duty: Warzone’ gets 15 million players in four days
[ad_1] There’s little doubt that this growth will slow over time, just as it did for Apex. It’s mainly a matter of when that happens, and whether or not the sustainable audience will be enough to eclipse rivals. That’s a tougher call. It’s unlikely that Warzone will achieve Fortnite‘s level of cultural relevance, but a […]
Grab an Xbox One X bundle for $250 at B&H
[ad_1] If you’d really rather have another game, you can snag the Gears 5 Limited Edition bundle for $299. There’s also supposed to be a sale on the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order bundle, but the retailer has already run out of stock. There are a few caveats. You’ll want to act quickly, for a […]
Nintendo prevails in lawsuit over Switch console and JoyCon design
[ad_1] The US Patent and Trademark Office filed a “termination decision document” on its database this week that explains why it ruled in Nintendo’s favor. The biggest factors seem to be Gamevice’s use of a flexible bridge to connect the pair of controllers, plus the fact that each controller has to be fitted to a […]
Niantic cancels ‘Pokémon Go’ and ‘Wizards Unite’ community days
[ad_1] Both titles, as well as Ingress, are designed to get people out and about, exploring their local area and teaming up in groups. That’s the opposite to what people should be doing in the face of a pandemic, with people urged to isolate and reduce close contact with others wherever possible. Community days even […]
