The look at how monsters and dungeons work is both familiar and different in what was shown of Diablo IV’s gameplay and design. Monsters still come in three major types: common, Elite, and Boss (it’s unclear whether there are still the two tiers of blue and yellow elites, however). Common enemies are your bog-standard cannon fodder as usual, but it’s interesting to note that each of the various types seems to have a distinct role in their “family” this time around....

Dirt 3 reviews went live this morning and by most accounts, Codemasters nailed it with the latest in their line of racing titles. Dirt 3 is as it sounds, a rally inspired racing game that has you driving the most hazardous terrains in a wide variety of race specific vehicles. One constant that seems to cropping up in the first reviews of the game is variety. Variety in cars, tracks, and gamemodes are making this soon to be released racer a must have....

Disney Movie Insiders is a reward program for dedicated Disney fans who follow their latest film releases. Fortunately, you’re not always required to purchase the latest (and therefore most expensive) movies to claim rewards for your account—you can use any of their promotional codes to claim free points for your account.

If you’re a fan of the Pokémon franchise, then you know that dialogue choices are not a new addition to the series. In most cases, these options are made because of story progression. But, beyond that, they do not matter. This is especially so in the newest game. There are missable and one-time events that cannot be changed and will if you are interested in how the rest of your Pokémon journey will look....

King Bounty II is the long-awaited follow-up to the classic turn-based RPG. Many people will have spent a lot of time with the title in the past and may be wondering if they will be able to play the new version with friends. Unfortunately, King’s Bounty II will be singleplayer only, and will not feature any multiplayer or co-op features. The game will be entirely focused on singleplayer, just like the original, and the developers do not have any plans to introduce cooperative play in the future....

The first boss can be defeated with ease. Doom Eternal is already a pretty challenging game, but the first major boss encounter with the Doom Hunter can stop your playthrough in its tracks if you’re not prepared. It’s a lengthy fight with a surprising second phase that catches a lot of players off guard, but with the right strategy, you can make quick work of this encounter. Certain weapon mods, like the Lock-On Burst for the Rocket Launcher, can make this fight a joke, but it’s still completely manageable without them....

If you are one of the many Call of Duty: Warzone players who have been using the game’s weapon XP exploit, you might want to double down. Developer Raven Software has recently disabled double XP in Warzone’s Plunder mode to curb the amount of weapon XP players are getting. Therefore, this exploit is probably on its last legs, as they are most definitely aware and working on a fix. However, for those less familiar with this exploit, let us go over it first....

Taking players through a horror-themed quest in a land called Barovia, the campaign features undead, suspicious villagers, and the manipulative overlord Strahd von Zarovich. With the anniversary of its release back in 2016, this box set includes a lot of fun extras and additional updates to the campaign guide.

Dungeons and Dragons is a game of storytelling. It’s a tabletop RPG where you get to create hilarious and moving tales with friends and family. It’s a spoken play; a book written on a whim and the decisions of the players. It’s led to several content creators, authors, and artists to live streaming their own games. Now several of those creators are getting to stream their game live on stage for Wizards of the Coast’s next live event....

E3 will be trying something new this year, as the organizers have announced what they are calling E3 Live. This event takes place outside of the Los Angeles Convention Center where the main E3 event is held, and offers many of the perks that the regular E3 does like hands-on time with new games, live music and the chance to meet industry insiders. The biggest perk is that the event is absolutely free, though you will need to register ahead of time through its website....

A supposed E3 Blacklight: Retribution build of the PlayStation 4’s user interface has been leaked and some other unverified details such as DVR capabilities are also present. We don’t know if any of this is legit, it could be an incredibly well done fan-made program, but it certainly follows the same theme of what we’ve seen so far from Sony’s steady reveals. It sounds like the people involved are actually working on the PS4 version of Blacklight: Retribution and so have access to this “pre-alpha” build....

Bohemia Interactive’s zombie survival game DayZ had a new update today. Unfortunately, players are dealing with more than infected undead with this latest update. Many players are encountering the issue Error Code 9. It seems to be all over the place, even prompting a response from DayZ’s official Twitter. Error Code 9 – What is it? Reported first by PSU, DayZ’s error code 9 stems from server connection issues. A quick Google search shows that it’s not a new problem, but one that does seem to resurface whenever it feels like it....

DLC gets released before much requested lobbies are added. Dead or Alive 6 released earlier this month after initially being delayed from mid-February. You would have thought this would have meant all the important features would be in the game at launch, but online lobbies were not and instead promised for later in March. Along with the news that a new update is coming later this week, it has been revealed that lobbies have now been delayed even further....

It’s no secret that Titans are the best at what they do in Destiny 2. They punch things, eat crayons, and routinely turn literal gods into their own personal weapons. But, when they’re not causing havoc among the stars, they’re helping their fireteam with the assistance of exotic armor pieces like Precious Scars. Here’s how to get the gilded helm. Where to find Precious Scars in Destiny 2 The only way to acquire new exotic armors like Precious Scars is to complete Legendary Lost Sectors....

Also an Armor mod, players can visit Ada-1 in the Tower as there is always a chance she is selling it. To get the Heavy Handed armor mod, players should frequently visit Ada-1, who is located in the western part of the Tower, near the Annex....

Heroic rewards can’t be gained without the doing of heroic deeds. Destiny 2: Forsaken does quite a bit to make every activity count towards a guardian’s everlasting quest for more power. Many will agree that Lost Sectors and Public Events are great sources of loot in the beginning of the climb to a 500 power rating, but lost their usefulness once the soft cap is reached. This might be true of lost sectors and normal public events, but heroic public events are absolutely still worth pursuing as a source for exotic engrams....
