For as popular as it is, Call of Duty: Warzone was bound to get its fair share of cheaters sooner or later. With hacking and glitching within the mode becoming the norm over the past few months, seeing players cheat on stream within Warzone is not too surprising.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is changing up the traditional CoD formula a bit with its online offering as the game is set to feature vehicles and large maps to use them on. As one would expect, larger maps usually means more players, though fans should not expect numbers like Modern Warfare’s Ground War in Black Ops Cold War’s Combined Arms mode. Combined Arms will feature 12v12 gameplay that places emphasis on Black Ops Cold War’s new vehicles, with the vehicle options available to players changing based on the environment of the map....

Geeks and gamers around the world are breathing either a sigh of frustration or relief. BlizzCon planners have made the difficult decision to call off the 2020 convention.

We’ve highlighted the weak spots of Rom the Vacuous Spider, shown how to take advantage of the Blood-Starved Beast’s obsession, and revealed that Amygdala is not as impenetrable as some players might think.

Although Death Mountain has never been the most inviting place in Hyrule, as the volcano would often rain down flaming rocks upon a young Link in Ocarina of Time, its incarnation in Breath of the Wild is arguably even more deadly and lives up to its namesake. With a fiery environment that will easily burn Link to a crisp without the right equipment, it’s easily one of the harder locations to navigate at the beginning of the game....

Gearbox Software is arguably best known for the Borderlands series of first-person looter-shooter games, with the third entry recently seeing acclaim for its Guns, Love, and Tentacles DLC.

Today, Bungie is one of the most prestigious indie developers on the planet. Destiny 2 has millions of players from around the world and is synonymous with the looter/shooter genre. But it didn’t start out that way: Bungie used to be under the employ of Microsoft, having created the Halo franchise, before leaving that company to pursue their dreams of independence.

Any competitive shooter has some form of cheating problem, in one way or another. Fans and players of Call of Duty, whether it be traditional multiplayer modes or Warzone’s battle royale, are likely very familiar with what cheating looks like in those games. Even the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War beta, a game that doesn’t officially release for another few weeks, had cheaters. Bungie’s had to deal with its fair share of cheaters in Destiny 2 as well, but has opted for a slightly different approach this time around....
