There’s no denying that Keanu Reeves drove Cyberpunk 2077’s marketing campaign to success, with his signature long locks and twinkle in his eye. Reeves leads the line-up of famous faces within CD Projekt Red’s new IP, but has the man himself indulged in any gameplay yet? You’re about to find out, choombas.

With Final Kombat 2020 all wrapped up, Mortal Kombat 11 has received its next major balance update with patch 1.17. As is often the case following a major competitive event, the changes should bring fighters in line with the internal goals of developer NetherRealm Studios at most ranks of play, but players often overreact when such changes occur. This patch is no exception, and online forums are ablaze with talk of nerfing Jacqui Briggs too severely....

In competitive League Of Legends, the bottom lane duo is arguably the most important lane in the game due to their closeness in proximity to the Dragon, as well as the fact the Marksman usually is the primary damage dealer for the team. It is of the utmost importance for these two players to synergize with one another to succeed. The bot lane duos in this list rose to prominence for a multitude of reasons, whether it be their insane mechanical prowess or the utter dominance they showcased internationally....

Although this patch isn’t as large as some previous ones in Season 10, there are a few significant changes coming soon....

Gamers must have been disappointed to learn that there was not a single Titan in Apex Legends when they got that free download. The absence of wall-running should have come as a bit of a bummer too. Yet, it’s likely that they got over these disappointments rather quickly as the battle royale more than makes up for the lack of the above by simply being a great game. Its launch has prompted many to go out and buy Titanfall 2 anyway, so a Titan could be had there (not that consoling though, if you already had the game)....

Our quick take Lexus NX300h Luxury Nav - 3.5 / 5 The terminator SUV? Hasta la vista… not so much Practically bursting with kit Tech, without the UX To recap Interesting design, a hybrid drivetrain that the competition can’t compete with and a very high specification at a reasonable price are the Lexus NX’s standout features. But unfortunately to drive and live with, they don’t create a mid-sized SUV with greater appeal than the German opposition....

Loop Hero has three different classes to pick from, giving players plenty to learn about each one if they hope to get the most out of them. The small details about each Loop Hero class are essential and will mean the difference between a successful run that sees players return to camp laden down with resources or death on the loop. In Loop Hero, the Necromancer is a powerful class that many players have found is superb for long farming runs....

The PC versus Mac debate has raged for decades, with fans of both operating systems weighing the pros and cons of each. And while the answer depends largely on what users want out of their hardware, the issue of battery life is frequently brought up. Both ecosystems have similar troubles when it comes to battery life, but one change can help extend it quite a bit, especially for Mac users....

Wizards of the Coast has decided to shake up Magic: The Gathering with a new expansion aimed at fulfilling every fantasy geek’s dream of having all their favorite fantasy franchises in one game.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has some of the most intricately woven interconnected plots in any other comic-based film franchises out there. Saying that Marvel is good at fantasy storytelling is quite the understatement as they basically pioneered the superhero genre. With that said, the MCU gave birth to some of the most iconic and memorable superheroes ever seen on the silver screen. They’ve also accurately portrayed some of the most intimidatingly notorious super villains and treacherous miscreants ever depicted in superhero movies....

Although Final Fantasy 7 Remake may have ended up stealing the spotlight, Marvel’s Avengers was likely the most highly-anticipated title heading into Square Enix’s E3 2019 press conference. The upcoming action game got plenty of screen time, but most of it was spent on a cinematic trailer or chatting with the voice cast. In addition to a lack of gameplay (besides behind closed doors demos), Marvel’s Avengers is also taking some heat for the character design direction....

As Marvel’s Avengers players eagerly await an announcement about the delayed release of the game’s first additional character, Kate Bishop, the devs are continuing to rollout patches that address some of the game’s bigger issues. The latest patch builds on previous work and continues to address existing bugs and focus on improving the existing quality of life in the game, rather than adding in new content. Obviously players, especially endgame players, are itching for new content and confirmation that the game is still alive and well, but these bug fixes are incredibly important, as well....

Over the weekend, the video game industry descended upon Boston, Massachusetts for PAX East 2017. Mass Effect: Andromeda was among the upcoming releases represented at the event, with its creative director Mac Walters on hand to detail just how sophisticated the game’s dialogue system will be compared to previous instalments.

Metal Gear Survive - Konami’s first attempt at tackling the Metal Gear franchise without the oversight of its esteemed creator Hideo Kojima - is already showing signs of weakness compared to its predecessors. Specifically, according to statistics collected by GitHyp, Metal Gear Survive’s player count on Steam post-launch peaked at a mere 92% of Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain’s numbers. Prior to launch, Metal Gear Survive seemed to have a lot running against it....

Will it or won’t it? It’s a question that can be asked in regards to many a topic, but one that has been focused on the used games market — specifically in regards to the next generation of consoles — as of late.
