Also....learn to use something besides belly drum Azu or Iron Hands. You’ll be more successful in the long run.

That’s a lot of the internet right now, actually! Everyone’s best pokemon is the one they hypertained for Charizard specifically, so every 6-star lobby I go into has mostly Azumarill, Sylveon, Gardevoir and Iron Hands, even when those pokemon choices clearly do not work for the raid in question.

Raids are supposed to follow a certain pattern. In an even fight, players get to perform about two attacks each before the Pokémon pulls in some manner of energy around it and buffs its HP bar with a chunk of crystal.

Hopefully this means some big creative leap for their next game— or even better, a better work environment with less crunch. I loved MKX and Injustice, but MK11 and Injustice 2 both underwhelmed when it came to gameplay. They had more stuff, they looked prettier, but I played them for a much, much shorter timeframe…

Have to agree. The Fortnite BP is surprisingly chock full of great things every season, and gives you back all you spent in currency if you complete it.

Far as I’ve ever seen, it’s always been the developers.

One thing I know they patched out was the item duplication method you guys reported on a few days ago.

I don’t find myself disagreeing with Kotaku reviews very often, and this is the first one in recent memory that I just kind of outright disagreed with.

Right? I remember the promotional Terminator skin for Gears 5, and how everyone on the Locust side would be using it, turning PvP into COG vs. Terminators because the T-800 skin was just stupidly advantageous. It didn’t have any voice lines and replicated the mechanical step sounds of the COG Deebee, meaning you lose…

Nintendo chooses to identify only one of the fixes, and it couldn’t be more trivial

The “XBOX” code no longer works and is no longer advertised on the product. It’s still $240, but you don’t get the $40 credit anymore.

1-2 Switch and Super Mario Party are the only two games I can think of that took advantage of the portability in a gameplay way. There were modes in each of those games that required you to lay the console down flat on the floor.

I agree, but I think Nintendo didn’t initially want to do that out of fear of splitting the games in two sections, “portable-friendly” and “not portable-friendly”. If you want to really sell consumers on a gimmick, you need it to apply to every game. It’s why Xbox forced Kinect onto the XB1: they wanted games to use…

Same. I believe the reports about a “Switch Pro” dev kit being sent to developers, only for there to be no “Switch Pro” in the end. If Sony and Microsoft couldn’t keep up with demand on their consoles, how would a simultaneous third console hope to keep up?

Being honest, I only play Nintendo exclusives on Switch, because anything I could play on better hardware instead, I will. The portability factor really doesn’t do much of anything for me since I hardly ever travel. It sits in my dock 90% of the time, and the other 10% is plane rides or sitting on the couch farming…

Unlike previous games in the Pokémon mainline series, Scarlet and Violet have made fan-favorite Eevee pretty tricky to catch. Only popping up in a scant few tiny areas, and with very low spawn rates, trying to evolve the octet of Eeveelutions has never been harder.

Securing exclusive franchises is a tactic as old as the industry itself. Sony’s entire business model in the PS1 era was to lock down exclusivity with former Nintendo and Sega partners to pull away major IPs like Final Fantasy and everything made by EA Sports. They’ve also directly aided with funding games to ensure…

On release day, I stopped by my buddy’s Gamestop at the mall after work to pick up a copy. I figured it would be a quick in and out, like it always is. The mall here isn’t nearly as popular as it used to be, and most times that I stop by there are maybe 4-6 people in the store, half of them parents who are just…

No, because of SFxTK and other games from the time (mostly Capcom). Western aides were pleading for Capcom to not put this information on the disc and instead just pay the fees to host larger scale content on the XBL/PSN marketplaces, but Capcom said, “What’s the worst that could happen?”

I think they’re saying that only calling one side bullshit is disingenuous, and I’m inclined to agree.
