Ever since the days of recess roughhousing over the merits of Sonic versus Mario, console wars have been an inherent part of gaming. With each generation of systems, a new battle is joined, and most of the time, there’s a clear winner by the end of it all. While Nintendo largely does their own damn thing, the “PS4 vs Xbox One” argument continues. You can squabble over exclusives and the like as much as you want, but when it comes to mainstream popularity and sales, Sony are clearly ahead in this race....

The latter is why working out today’s Wordle answer is such a priority, as players pride themselves on keeping their streak going....

Capcom’s Yoshiaki Hirabayashi has confirmed that Resident Evil 2 will bring back the original game’s Hunk and Tofu modes. Okay, so, stay with me. Yes, you could play as a lump of tofu in 1998’s Resident Evil 2, but it was an unlockable game mode accessed after getting an A rank in multiple scenario playthroughs. Tofu was also only armed with a knife, making it pretty damn difficult to beat. It was bascially a comical counterpart to The Fourth Survivor, another hidden mode that saw players controlling Umbrella agent Hunk as he escapes the Raccoon Police Department with a sample of the G-Virus....

At least, that’s what I said to myself while taking aim at the mindless soldiers while playing an early build of Zombie Army 4: Dead War.

When Wolfenstein: Youngblood launched earlier this month, many people didn’t expect the cooperative shooter to function like an “always online” game. For whatever reason, though, developer MachineGames saw fit to restrict pausing of the game while playing it solo. Perhaps they meant it as an easy way to allow for drop-in/drop-out co-op? Whatever the reason, Youngblood‘s next patch is set to remedy this issue. In some patch notes released by Bethesda today, a number of fixes coming to the half-baked Wolfenstein spin-off were detailed....
