First of all, it looks like Diablo 4 will be the best one of its series. In Diablo 3 we got to see a celestial battle between angels and demons, but nothing all that scary. Now looking at the new trailers (embedded below,) from the first seconds we can feel the lack of hope; the fear crawling down our spines. From the trailer, we already get symbols like 3 men required, only 3 survive. The game also presents to us, at the gate, a symbol of the main demon of Diablo 4, the boss, the biggest and the dangerous creature we can find in the game - Lilith. So when will Diablo 4 be released and what you can you expect? This guide covers everything we know so far. (9-13-2020 - we've updated this guide to cover everything that's happened over the last 8 months in Diablo 4's developement, so be sure to check out what's changed below!) Diablo 4 Release Date

Following a leak, Microsoft finally confirmed the existence of the Xbox Series S and its price point of just $299. Just days after that happened, we learned that the smaller SSD (1TB in the Series X vs. 512GB in the Series S) is what makes a $299 next-gen console possible. With that in mind, however, there’s a lot more that sets the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S apart, so let’s take a deep look into the specifications and why you should go with one console over the other. Xbox Series S – Dulled Down For the Sake of Affordability The Xbox Series S is still more powerful than even the Xbox One X and the PlayStation 5 as we know it now. However, its hardware is no match for the Xbox Series X. As you already know, the 512 GB SSD is said to be the biggest factor behind the $200 price difference between the two consoles, but the Series...

Microsoft confirming the Xbox Series S and a price tag of $299 might have been a damaging blow to the PlayStation 5, at least in terms of players still on the fence about what console to go for this holiday season. That smaller console with a significantly smaller price tag ($299 vs. $499), however, means you have to trade off built-in storage space, the high-end GPU, and just a bit of system memory. That 512 GB hard drive was probably the biggest blow, given the size of games for current-gen systems, but now we know why – according to Microsoft, reducing the size of the HD was the primary factor in shaving cost. This confirmation comes via a leaked Xbox press briefing, where Liz Hamren – Head of Platform Engineering and Hardware – went into depth on the subject: “When we move to SSD technology we get much, much higher performance, but of course that performance comes at a higher cost. Of course, more storage is...

Following a surprise reveal of the smaller and cheaper Xbox Series S, Microsoft has gone all out and revealed that the Xbox Series X will launch on November 10 with a price of $499. Pre-orders will kick off within a couple of weeks, and you can even buy it via Microsoft’s subscription model. Xbox Series X Launch Date and Pre-Ordering The Xbox Series X officially launches on November 10, 2020 and pre-orders will kick off on Tuesday September 22, 2020. This is the same launch and pre-order dates given for those of you in the United Kingdom, so it should be the same for all of Europe as well. Xbox Series X Pricing In the United States, the Xbox Series X has an MSRP of $499 while those of you in the U.K. will have to pay £449. Pricing outside of these two markets, however, will vary as will the launch date in some areas. The smaller, entry-level Xbox Series...

Following in quick succession after a rather enticing leak, Microsoft hasn’t only confirmed that the Xbox Series S exists but also that it’ll have a retail price of just $299 in the United States, €299.99 in Europe, and £249.99 in the U.K. As you can see from the image above, the Xbox Series S looks very similar to the current Xbox One S, including the single USB port and the “X” power button. The image also confirms that it can sit either vertically or horizontally as you’d expect. Apparently, the Xbox Series S is so small that you can fit it inside the new Xbox Series X. Obviously, the Series S doesn’t have a disc drive, but will it be as “next-gen capable” as the larger Xbox Series X? What Makes the Xbox Series S Different From the Series X? https://www.facebook.com/xbox/photos/a.91876221022/10158450524706023/ Outside of the obvious difference in size, the Xbox Series S is the entry-level next-gen Xbox.

The internet has opened our eyes and set us free, but the truth is that not everything on the internet is accurate. Fortunately, that’s the case when it comes to all the recent leaks and rumors surrounding Halo Infinite. Much like the drama surrounding Halo Infinite’s subpar graphics and rumors that multiplayer wouldn’t be available at launch, the news rumors about an extended delay or and lack of support for the Xbox One are completely unfounded and totally inaccurate. This confirmation comes from 343 Industries Community Manage, John Junyszek via Twitter. In a reply to on fan’s tweet regarding the delay into 2020, Junyszek said “there are no plans to change our 2021 release day or the devices and platforms that we’ll be supporting.” Hey Eric - we're seeing lots of fake "leaks" out there, so please don't believe everything you read. There are no plans to change our 2021 release or the devices and platforms we'll be supporting. We're building Halo Infinite to be the...

Back when the first Crysis Remastered Trailed launched, we all got excited. Of course, we all know that Saber and Crytek likely rushed the trailer out the door after the leak that popped up just days before. Then, another leak of a second trailer in July had everyone up in arms over graphics and a number of other things. When the game was delayed, the studio confirmed that they had “seen all the reactions - the good and the bad - and we're listening. We're still working on a number of things in game, as well as the storefront.” Now,  a new trailer has arrived, and boy does it look like it is going to be worth the wait. https://youtu.be/1OPCixigR7E First and foremost, the trailer above confirms that Crysis Remastered is, in fact, launching on September 18 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Outside of that, we also get to see a rather convincing comparison between the graphics of the original Crysis and...

Remember back in the late 2000s when the PlayStation 2 had a plethora of horror games? We didn’t realize it then, but we were very lucky. Sure, there are a few good horror games these days, and Capcom has done right by remastering the old Resident Evil games, but we’re still waiting for a new Silent Hill game. In all honesty, things will probably never be the same. The good news is that you will soon get some old-school thrills, thanks to a game call Tormented Souls. Tormented Souls is being developed by Dual Effect and Abstract Digital, and will be published by PQube Limited. It looks like a weird blend between the first Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Clock Tower. In fact, these games are what developers look to for inspiration. The game is set in an old mansion turned hospital (hello Resident Evil) and you’ll play as Caroline Walker, a woman that is investigating the disappearance of twin girls in a town...

Every 5-7 years something big happens: the big console war between Microsoft and Sony. We’re on the dawn of a new console war, or at least we thought we were, but that’s apparently not the case. In Phil Spencer’s same sit down with Animal Talking  where he discussed why the PS5 is so big, he also explained that Microsoft isn’t in the business of competing in a console war this time around. In fact, one could argue that it’s the exact opposite, as Spencer says it’s about building an experience. In short, the competition between the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 will be fundamentally different compared to what we saw for the Xbox one and PS4 or the Xbox 360 and PS3. “We want people to feel like they're a member of Xbox. And that membership in Xbox isn't about one device, it can be multiple devices. I want to have a great experience on the television and I think Xbox Series X is absolutely...

Aesthetic Gamer has a pretty good history of accurate leaks, but they are usually associated with games. This time around, he’s claiming that not only with the PlayStation 5 cost more than the Xbox Series X but that it will struggle with delivering 4K – something Sony is said to be combating with “Fake 4K,” whatever that means. With AG’s experience in leaking Resident Evil information, with the most recent leak being that Resident Evil Village will be the longest of the series thus far. That said, it shouldn’t be surprising that this leak about the PS5 is directly related to Resident Evil Village (RE8). (2/3) But people are should get ready for the really real possibility that the PS5 is going to end up being the more expensive console between the two, I'm trying not to say much here as I was asked not to but prepare yourself, which does put Xbox X in a position it'll be the— AestheticGamer aka Dusk Golem (@AestheticGamer1) August 12, 2020 ...
