10 Fair Trade – a trading mod that adjusts the prices Earning money in the Deadfire archipelago can be a tall order, especially with the piling expenses of upgrades and ship add-ons. The merchants don’t make it easy either because their prices are too low to justify selling your treasures. Thankfully, Fair Trade fixes this unapologetic daylight robbery. The game will adjust all the selling prices to roughly the buy value of any item you sell to them....

The Nintendo Switch has proved itself as a superb alternative to major consoles from Sony and Xbox, offering something else besides - portability.

Since the early phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, avid Avengers fans have been clamoring for Black Widow to take center stage in her own film. In 2018, Disney and Marvel Studios met those demands by announcing Black Widow, a solo venture that would be released in 2020. However, those who have been waiting for Natasha Romanoff’s story since her first appearances in Iron Man 2 and The Avengers will have to wait a little longer....

Players have learned about some interesting features in the upcoming title, Godfall. The game has already been promoted as using PS5’s haptic feedback to simulate the feel of Godfall’s weapons, but a promotional stunt is bringing an even more realistic weapon feel. Gearbox hired a group of blacksmiths to create one of the weapons from Godfall in real life. Man At Arms: Reforged is a YouTube show that focuses on making video game weapons....

Borderlands 3 players are currently being treated to a boss loot event in the looter shooter, but for the first time since the game’s initial release, players are in the dark as to what comes after these events. Ever since the first event, players have had a roadmap to clue them in on when content would come. However, since the Borderlands 3 Spring 2020 roadmap released earlier this year, fans have gone without one....

Well, that was a bit shite, wasn’t it? 2020 can get in the sea, says I. Or, as one Breath of the Wild player suggests, it can get blown to smithereens instead - I don’t really care as long as it’s gone for good. But no, of course it’s not that easy. The calendars may read 2021, but 2020 is still being a complete prick, as evidenced by this poor Zelda player’s botched attempt to banish it from the world once and for all....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies fans were thrilled to get some concrete news on 115 Day regarding Firebase Z, the game’s first post-launch Zombies map. Not only does the next Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War map boasts a fun premise, but its story may see the return of a major figure.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has arrived. The much-anticipated shooter released on November 13 with sales success and fan excitement.

But come three days ago, when the latest installment of the mega-popular shooter series was finally released, it appeared to defy all initial negative impressions, garnering generally positive reviews across various publications....

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare might be getting cycled out of rotation, but that does not mean there are even more secrets hidden within the game....

In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare one of the signs of match-based domination is the infamous Tactical Nuke. Modern Warfare fans battle to try and gain the uninterrupted 30 kills needed to unlock the game-ending killstreak and blast away the competition in a final defining act. Although players can often see the nuke land, one fan wanted a different perspective. Modern Warfare players are familiar with what a nuke animation looks like from internet videos, encounters in previous games, or the unfortunate run-ins with the killstreak....

Sony has been sparing no expense when it comes to ruining ports of popular games on other platforms. After the recent news of Marvel’s Avengers getting Spider-Man exclusively on Sony platform, the new season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is doing something similar.
