Look, there’s no two ways about it: Spider-Man owes a lot to Batman. Specifically the upcoming Spider-Man game, which liberally borrows several elements from Rocksteady’s stellar caped crusader series and weaves its own unique web of attacks. That’s not exactly a bad inspiration.

Rumour suggests that Microsoft isn’t just working on one next gen console, but two. The first will be the traditional console, packed with the hardware capable of running games, while the other will apparently be more of a set-top box that’ll run games from the cloud. During the investor’s call over their recently posted financial, Activision believes that cloud-based video gaming will be a boon for the industry. They don’t, however, believe the industry is ready for it just yet.

BioWare General Manager Casey Hudosn says that the cries for more entries in the Dragon Age, Mass Effect and Old Republic universes aren't falling on deaf ears, and that the studio is cooking up something in the more traditional RPG space.

To bee, or not to bee, that is the question. I mean, always bee yourself if you can, or better yet, bee the best bee that you can bee. Bee-lieve in yourself! If you’re looking for the buzz on the latest game that sounds hotter than the new Bee-yonce single on the charts, then I’ve got something for you: Bee Simulator.

While you’ll need to do plenty of grunt work to get armour armour completed and rekindled in Destiny 2's Solstice of Heroes event, perhaps the most taxing task is the hunt for Elemental Orbs. How do you get your hands on 250 of them quickly so that you can at least have one of the triumph bounties farmed and done in a day? Here's how.

Dead or ALive 6 recently unveiled two new faces to its roster: Diego and Rig. Taekwondo master Rig is an old face in Dead or Alive, a high-kicking master whose arsenal of roundhouses and leg-based offense is now even more versatile and acrobatic than ever before. As for Diego? This new face has no grace or style. He’s simply a rough customer, a street fighting prodigy who happens to be deadly when he closes the distance and gets within striking range.

EA's Strike series of games boasted a combination of speed, precision and strategy that no other game has managed to copy successfully in the years since the series first made a name for itself.

Opinions on Cloud Imperium Games’ Star Citizen generally fall into two camps. You have the loyal backers and defenders who’ve patiently waited for it to come out, who rush into forums and comments on articles to rubbish any claims of the game or its developers’ impropriety. Most everyone else thinks that the world’s most crowd-funded game is little more than a long con; a game so beleaguered by feature creep that it’ll either never come out or will fail to live up to its expectations when it does. It’s become increasingly difficult for those in the former camp to find fault with anything surrounding the game, thanks to confirmation biases and other bits of errors in inductive reasoning. A new change to the game’s economy has, however, riled some backers up.
