Nintendo making questionable decisions? Perish the thought! This time, the “Big N” goes after YouTubers who promote their games via Let’s Play videos. Is this the right move? How will the gaming community respond? Find out in the following video!
ReasSESSment: Next Xbox “Rare”ing To Go?

Doing Away with Escorts: A Modern Gaming Trope
So few gameplay elements in past titles would aggravate me more than dealing with helpless escorts. One example I always refer back to is Ashley in Resident Evil 4. Her double whammy character traits of being a defenseless target and whiny brat came to define everything gamers lamented in these types of missions.
It is why the apparent rise of having partners as opposed to “damsels in distress” has been nothing short of a godsend in games lately. Who knew an accompanying NPC could actually help you kick ass instead of getting in the way of said ass kicking? This is a love letter to those who help us survive, get revenge, and save the world.

Spiritual Sequel to Eternal Darkness is Happening
Anyone who owned a Gamecube may remember a certain title that put game developer Silicon Knights on the map called Eternal Darkness. Since the game’s release in 2002, the studio has released three games including the depressingly abysmal X-Men Destiny and Too Human.
They were also involved in a lawsuit battle with Epic Games which they lost. This resulted in financial loss, destroying all unsold copies of X-Men Destiny, Too Human, and three unfinished and unannounced titles.
Now we get the announcement that a sequel for Eternal Darkness is in the works called Shadow of the Eternals and under a brand new studio called Precursor Games. What do we know about this intriguing project so far? Check out below after the reveal trailer!
