Here are a bunch of screenshots of Obsidian’s new game The Outer Worlds

Fallout Killer? I spent a good chunk of time this weekend thinking about Obsidian’s new RPGThe Outer Worlds.It debuted Thursday nightat The Game Awards with the trailer that’s embedded above.

Maybe the video moved too fast for you to study every little thing....

Here’s our first look at Wild Guns Reloaded

It’s old school! Natsume is bringing backWild Gunson the PS4 asWild Guns Reloaded, and it looks like it’s still going to have an old school style! I don’t know what I expected — initially I thought it was going to be in 3D — but this is a welcome surprise. Maybe for those of you who didn’t grow up in the era of the SNES it’ll come as a disappointment, but I love it....

Could the two be connected? Playing as a dude who is bored to tears of his new job at the diner, it’s on you to investigate....

Man, Geralt really knows how to kick it

Chilling after E3 Ben Schamma, also known as “Maul Cosplay,” looks so much likeThe Witcher‘s Geralt that CD Projekt Red even hired him to be their model at E3. He not only sports the rocking beard and hair style, but has the look for it, all the way down to the contact lenses. And he seems like a pretty chill dude, kicking it in LA after E3 is over, exploring the open world of life....

Map size doesn’t seem like a focus for Assassin’s Creed: Origins

Scale down The glut of open-world games over the past decade have mostly come with variations on the same marketing pitch: “This world is huge.” It comes in different forms, from “See that mountain? You can go there!” to proudly revealing the square footage of the in-game map. The general mindset is almost always that bigger is better because that means there is more game to play. Assassin’s Creed: Originsdoesn’t seem to be concerned with that....

It seems as if the sequel is due in October, thanks to a listing for October 20on an international arm of Ubisoft’s own site.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong is Wii U-bound

Cuter than ever Mario vs. Donkey Kongis making its way to Wii U, with social features and level editing mechanics that allow creators to share what they’ve made via Miiverse with other players. They can then in turn be rewarded with stars for a job well done, which should act as an interesting incentive for players to share their own insidious creations. Other than that, it looks like your fairly standard, run-of-the-mill version of the same games we’ve seen across several different Nintendo handhelds....

Mega Man 9’s in-game store revealed: Transvestite Man power-up costs 200 bolts?

Today,NintendoWiiFanboy.comrevealed some interesting details about the in-game store/shop to be featured inMega Man 9. Just like inMega Man 7and8, the shop here is run by Auto (the strangely Mr. Destructoid-esque robot mechanic), who can produce some mega-mildly useful power-ups from bolts found throughout the game. But hello, what’s this? Some of the power ups here are a bit “different”, like the book that allows for Mega Man to change his hairstyle, and a Roll head that lets Mega Man… dress like his sister Roll?...

Microsoft: A few Japanese exclusives coming to Xbox One

Phil Spencer insists Japan has always been an important market for Microsoft The Xbox brand has never been particularly strong in Japan, but that doesn’t mean Microsoft Studios doesn’t view the country as an important market, corporate vice president Phil Spencer argues. The platform holder initially made a strong effort to curry favor with Japanese audiences, publishing role-playing gamesLost OdysseyandBlue Dragon. Though that level of support has waned in recent years, it may see an upsurge with the impending release of Xbox One....

Mintervision

From our community blogs I want to take some time out of my day to talk to you about our lord and savior Jeff Minter. When VR headsets were first announced, I was smitten. Since I’ve been a little kid farting around the house pretending in I was a videogame instead of playing “house” (the house, not the doctor) I dreamed of what virtual reality would be like. And those dreams were largely based on CG cartoons off of YTV and movies likeThe Lawnmower Man....

The Zelda bomb bag fromSkyward Swordcomes to mind, as I can vividly recall the logo and coloring, as one of the several blue bags in the series (typically they’re brown or blue).
