Godfall hits the nail on the next-gen launch game head: All style, very little substance. Granted there’s some fun to be had but once the next-generation glitz wears off what’s left is a repetitive slog through levels that quickly get old.

Sandwiched between the launch of two next-gen consoles, and roughly 73 trillion games, the remake of cult classic cel-shaded shooter XIII probably flew under your radar. That’s not to say that the game didn’t have fans, but those people who decided to slap down some cash for nostalgia? They weren’t exactly happy with the end result, which saw a memorable tale of a Bourne-again fella with amnesia reclaiming his memory one bullet at a time, reduced to a stock standard shoot ‘em up.

Customisation will play a large role within Cyberpunk 2077, but in news that the British fans of the soon to be released game will appreciate, you’ll also be able to alter your not so pearly whites. Spotted on Reddit via VG247, the German Facebook group for Cyberpunk 2077 confirmed that options for your chompers and nail length will be available for your avatar.

There are still those who are willing to get up at the crack of dusk and boot up their console to find him for you. People who’ll risk digital life and limb to let you know if Xur is selling a treasure or rubbish. I just so happen to be one of those people. Maybe you’re stuck at work and can only log in later tonight. In that case: Where is Xur?

New year, new Destiny 2 expansion, same old trouble. Over on Europa, the Fallen are up to badness and it’s up to Guardians to once again sort them out. Previous Fallen public events in Destiny 2 have either been a rush to stop Vandals from making off with Glimmer or a showdown with a freakin’ tank, but the Europa event that you can take part in is even deadlier.

No stranger to Spider-Man toys, Hot Toys has spun a new web and revealed its own take on Miles Morales. He’s decked out in his new super-suit, you can replicate his Venom-shock abilities with cool effects parts, and best of all he comes equipped with Manhattan’s greatest hero, Spider-Cat. Here’s a look at the figure and a breakdown on all his cool accessories.

The PlayStation 5 arrives in a digital edition package, while the Xbox Series S also forgoes the disc drive in favour of a purely digital experience. On launch day, that meant that gamers were downloading a lot of new and old gaming content to their new devices. Internet usage in the UK spiked harder than a volleyball serve (I started watching Haikkyuu on Netflix), with Destiny 2 and Call of Duty being the primary culprits that almost murdered the UK internet on November 10, according to the BBC.

Following Valve’s trend of going behind-the-scenes on the development of games like Portal and Half-Life 2, it’s always a fun time to listen to the process of making a massive game.
