Logan Paul Wore A Rare Mint Charizard Pokemon Card To The Mayweather Fight

So Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather had a boxing match for some reason. You’d have expected this to be an easy tie for one of the most decorated boxers in history, but the match ended in a stalemate with both sides making a lot of money. The most interesting thing about this faceoff was probably the Pokemon card that Paul wore around his neck. The YouTuber wore a first edition, gem mint 10-graded Charizard around his neck, presumably as a trophy to try and match Mayweather’s many accolades....

Madden Nfl 21 Controversy Explained

Annual offerings from sports games are typically consistent when it comes to quality and content. Incremental changes come every few years, but for the most part, games like NBA 2K and FIFA typically only have things like roster changes and minor differences. The same usually goes for Madden NFL games, although 2021’s entry may be a very different story. At first the reviews from media outlets weren’t entirely scathing, but it was the user reviews that shed a light on a serious problem with Madden’s latest entry....

Man Builds Crypto Mining Rig In The Back Of His Car To Annoy Gamers

Annoying gamers has long been a pass time of a certain section of society who have never embraced the joy of immersing themselves in beautiful worlds, exploring ancient cultures, and shooting zombies in the head. Now cryptocurrency miner Simon Byrne has taken this to a new level by somehow getting his hands on several NVIDIA RTX 3080s, and stuffing them into a rig in the trunk of his car.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition Rated In Korea

The remastered Mass Effect trilogy collection has been one of the worst kept secrets in gaming. Much like how everyone was aware that Super Mario 3D All-Stars was a thing months before Nintendo officially announced it, we’re all just waiting for EA to spill the beans and confirm that this bundle exists. Well, we may be one step closer to that confirmation as a new Mass Effect-related product has been rated by the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea....

Mega Construx Has A Weird Take On Their Detective Pikachu Themed Lickitung Figure

Mega Construx has a line of Detective Pikachu themed buildable figures and one of them is about to make me lose my lunch. Lickitung isn’t the most adorable Pokémon, but he’s cute in his own freakishly deformed way. Not-LEGO building block company Mega Construx has taken some…shall we say, artistic liberties with their version of Lickitung. See for yourself. [WARNING: people with high blood pressure, PTSD, and expected mothers should look away immediately....

Microsoft Beefing Up Security To Prevent Xbox 720 Leak

After some major details about Microsoft’s next console — codenamed Durango — leaked onto the internet, the company was presumably worried about gamers discovering too much too early. However since the leak, not much has been revealed about the Xbox 720, and that’s apparently for good reason. As the company significantly ramps up development on its next-gen console, Microsoft has reportedly beefed up security to the point that only specific employees are allowed unvetted access to four key Xbox and Interactive Entertainment Business buildings....

Microsoft Was Working On Xbox Smartwatch

It’s no secret that Microsoft is one of the largest tech giants operating around the globe, and the company has its mitts in many aspects of the tech industry: software, gaming, music, and education are just some areas that have received focus from the tech giant. As it turns out, Microsoft really went back to the roots of its name (a portmanteau of microcomputer and software) back in 2013, when it worked on developing an Xbox Smartwatch....

Minecraft Dungeons Hits 10 Million Player Milestone

Mojang and Microsoft have announced that Minecraft Dungeons has surpassed the 10 million player mark and the numbers are continuing to climb. As spotted by VG24/7, this news came from Minecraft’s official website, which thanked players for continuing to support the game after its launch back in May 2020 for all platforms. Since then, the dungeon-crawler spinoff has grown in popularity likely due to support from Mojang, the introduction of crossplay, and frequent new updates and DLC....

Minecraft Dungeons Release Date Could Be Pushed Back

The spread of the novel coronavirus has added confusion to all things. People and businesses are doing their best to adhere to social distancing and safety protocols, but sometimes doing so isn’t fast or easy. More often than not, doing the right thing despite the unpredictable consequences is the right choice. Such is the case with Mojang, apparently. The Minecraft Dungeons developer is prioritizing the safety of the studio’s employees, which means that the game might be delayed out of April....

Mmos Are Dying On Stadia Without Crossplay

Update: ESO is confirmed to support crossplay on Stadia at launch. This is a much-needed feature that will surely help support the health of the game on Stadia. Hopefully, crossplay will eventually come to Destiny 2 as well. The Elder Scrolls Online has been revealed as one of the free games for Stadia Pro subscribers next month, but just like Destiny 2, it will not support cross-platform play. To clarify: both games support cross-save and cross-progression, meaning you can pick up exactly where you left on and keep playing your character, and when you switch back to PC or console you have all the progress you made on Stadia....

Modders Have Made Resident Evil Village S Lady Dimitrescu Even Taller

As spotted by PCGamesN, one fan has modded Resident Evil Village to make the gargantuan Lady Dimitrescu even taller.

This comes from xRaq and is aptly dubbed ‘Taller Alcina Dimitrescu.’ It does what it says on the tin, stretching her upward, and is even compatible with reskin mods if you want to make a taller Dimitrescu X follow you about....

Mojang S Minecraft Follow Up Scrolls Enters Closed Alpha

Now that Mojang is free to use Scrolls as the official title for their forthcoming Minecraft follow-up things have begun to move along nicely. We haven’t heard much from the game since the court decision, but apparently the title is now in closed alpha. While gamers familiar with Mojang, or more specifically Notch’s approach to games will say that a closed alpha is nearly a finished product, this version of Scrolls is far from it....

Kingdoms Of Amalur Re Reckoning Review

When THQ Nordic revealed that it had acquired the Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning IP in 2018, many fans were ecstatic. The 2012 game had been well received by critics and gamers, even if it released at an inopportune time and was caught between much bigger games. Then, various events around the original’s release ultimately lead to then-developer 38 Studios shutting down, with Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning being THQ Nordic’s attempt at re-capturing that lightning in a bottle....
