‘Don’t be surprised to see the Dungeon Run resurface’ Hearthstonehas gone through a lot of changes in the past (nearly) four years it’s been out. I’m not just talking about balance and card alterations, but multiple fundamental shakeups, including the introduction of the popular season collectible card game (CCG) format that occasionally relegates your old cards to the unofficial “wild” format. While that mostly impacts the competitive side, Blizzard has also been steadily producing single-player content, which kicked off in earnest with the first adventure pack —Curse of Naxxramas,released four months after the base game in 2014....

They’ve also raised money for charity Hellbladesaw a different kind of marketing push from Ninja Theory. While studio head Tameem Antoniades usually gets himself into trouble puffing his chest and talking about what his fans “really want from action games,” he presented a more of a level-headed approach this time — which is definitely the right way to go, given the heavy subject matter. Speaking to GamesBeat, Antoniades explains thatHellbladehas nearly broken even, a goal they didn’t expect to reach until “six, eight, or [even] nine months....

There’s one location that’s easy to stump even veteran players on how to get to, and that’s the hospital included inGet To Work. Where is the hospital, and how do your Sims visit if they need a doctor?...

How to beat the Chemist If there’s anything I can say for certain about theCall of Dutyseries, it’s that the games are chock-full of all kinds of awesome weapons. While you’re able to unlock the majority of them inModern Warfare IIthrough normal weapon progression by leveling up, there are afew gunsin the game that require you to complete a mission before they’re yours to take for a spin. One of those weapons happens to be the M13B, which is the last assault rifle listed in the game menus, and it’s only accessible by completing a challenge in the newDMZmode....

Would a few seconds have hurt anyone? Remember how earlier I detailed Sega’s E3 2014 lineup and we all lamented the lack ofPhantasy Star Novalocalization? Me too. But don’t cry. Not yet. There’s a brand new trailer that’ll dry all of your tears, and then remind you that this may never come to America. But we can dream, can we not? Actually, I wouldn’t even get too excited about this trailer....

These middle-aged men are really into Splatoon! Nintendo has just released some commercials promoting the upcoming Switch console. The ads show off some gameplay from a few of the system’s most heavily anticipated titles, includingSplatoon 2, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild,andMario Kart 8 Deluxe.The commercials will air on Japanese television and streaming sites, but you can watch them below. I think it’s interesting that Nintendo appears to be advertising to an older audience in these commercials; I don’t think I saw anyone under 20 in any of them....

They need Steven Hansen on the case The police of Salem, Massachusetts are obviously tapped out creatively. What else would be their reasoning for naming a murderer whose calling card is drawings of bells, the pun-deficient “Bell Killer?” Seriously, not even a single “For Whom The Bell Tolls” or “Dead Ringer” thrown in for good measure. Maybe I haven’t gotten around to reading Brittany “Punching Wallaby” Vincent’sMurdered: Soul Suspectreviewyet, but I’ll assume that the 4....

If the price is right, buy it In case you haven’t played bothNES RemixandNES Remix 2, you’re able to pick up both later this year in the form of a physical copy. It’s always been rumored since Nintendo mentioned it in passing as a definite Japanese release, but now we know that the physical pack is coming “later this holiday season.” No specifics were given (please understand), but if the price is right, it will not only be worth the cash for collectors, but to experience both games in all their glory — especially since the second is the stronger of the two....
