Modder makes the GameCube Joy-Cons you’ve always wanted for your Switch
[ad_1] He even created a center piece that lets you reunite both halves in a single gamepad that’s the same width as the original Wavebird. The creator expects to provide CAD files for those who want to attempt their own mods, but be warned: this definitely isn’t for first-timers. Shank cautioned that a lot more […]
Steam makes it easier to find and download game soundtracks
[ad_1] The audio itself is getting a boost. There’s a new interface for soundtracks, and producers can offer high-quality versions of tracks (such as in FLAC or WAV) in addition to the usual MP3s.

‘Bayonetta’ developer is the latest to throw itself at Tencent’s feet
[ad_1] The cash influx won’t just improve Platinum’s financial position. Sato said this would help his firm move beyond development to possible self-publishing.

‘Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection’ is free on PS Plus in January
[ad_1] The other title is… less ambitious. Goat Simulator is a classic sandbox game that revels in its absurdity and glitches.

Russell was initially attached to the Uncharted move, only to be followed up by Stranger Things‘ Shawn Levy and 10 Cloverfield Lane‘s Dan Trachtenberg. The project has been around for long enough that Wahlberg, […]
‘The Witcher 3’ is now more popular on Steam than it was at launch
[ad_1] It won’t surprise you to hear what likely prompted the spike. You see, there’s this little Netflix series called The Witcher that premiered on December 20th — there’s a good chance that seeing Henry Cavill and crew in the show prompted players to fire up the game. And when Witcher 3 is currently on […]
