E3 2020 registration opens February 15 at 11AM ET
[ad_1] Be sure to temper your expectations accordingly. It’s no secret that Sony won’t be there, for instance.

Virtual pet site Neopets is being rebooted into a TV show
[ad_1] This is part of a larger overhaul for Neopets due this year that will include a reworked site, another mobile game and “licensed merchandise.” Whether or not this works isn’t certain.

‘CS:GO’ will soon mute abusive players by default
[ad_1] The CS:GO team wrote in their announcement: “Because the new system is driven by reports, it lets players establish their own standards for communication and ensure that their fellow players receive anonymous feedback when they’re out of line.” While they didn’t reveal how many reports a user has to get before they issue a […]
