Around this time last summer, self-titled “Gamer Girl” Belle Delphine made headlines when she started selling her used bathwater online. The stunt proved to be extremely lucrative for the controversial social media personality, with the bathwater selling out and generating mainstream attention. Despite her spike in popularity, Belle Delphine seemingly disappeared from the Internet a few months after the bathwater stunt, but now she has returned with a new music video....

Games like Warframe and Crysis (and surprisingly Microsoft Flight Simulator) exist to push the boundaries of what is possible with your hardware. However, during a recent interview with TheGamer, Digital Extreme’s COO assured players that, “Just because everybody else has stepped up, you’re not gonna get left behind.” Warframe was recently released on the PS5, and along with it, a series of upgrades came to both the console and PC ports....

One YouTube group known as Game Society Pimps perfectly impersonates the actor Morgan Freeman while playing The Division, and it is absolutely hilarious. It’s no secret that games are nothing without people to play them. This holds true in many instances, but sometimes it’s the people playing the title that make it worth checking out – and laughs are a good incentive to continuously hop into a party and join in on a multiplayer game like The Division....

At the time of its release, Shenmue was the most expensive game ever made. The exact budget varies depending on who’s to be believed, but it’s somewhere between $47m and $70m. Whatever the amount, it led to the creation of one of the most ground-breaking games ever made. Love it or loathe it, it’s hard to argue that Shenmue was not a game ahead of its time. It featured numerous elements that would not become standard in video games for years to come and popularized a number of gameplay mechanics that would go on to feature in some of the best selling games of all time....

Taking place 100 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, Age of Calamity is filled with countless Legend of Zelda Easter eggs. Hyrule as it was depicted in BotW was a post-apocalyptic wasteland where virtually all life was relegated to what few remaining townships there were, along with the stables scattered in-between. Age of Calamity’s Hyrule is diverse and full of life, highlighting the world that Link & Zelda failed to save in Breath of the Wild....

The Final Fantasy series is well-loved all over the world. Spanning multiple titles, with additional anime adaptations, movies, figures, and more, it’s no surprise that the franchise keeps going strong. Each game offers fantastic music, memorable characters, and a different journey for fans to play through. Final Fantasy plays an influential role in the design and conception of many JRPGs, but it’s not the only huge series out there, either. If you’re looking for something new to try after getting your Final Fantasy fix, or you just want to find something that offers the same sort of fun as this beloved game series, there’s a lot of options to try out....

Some companies have a bad habit of announcing a game years ahead of its intended release. We recently saw how this could have disastrous consequences with the release of Cyberpunk 2077. It is not always the developer’s fault, however. Take Bethesda, for example. Fans were so adamant about a new Elder Scrolls, the company almost had no choice but to reveal they were working on the project and give us a small trailer....

It’s been truly amazing to watch how the Pokémon series has been able to evolve over time. The progression of the Nintendo franchise has been gradual, but each new title in the series tries to add something new to the formula and help the games become more expansive without throwing too much at the audience. In addition to new features, each new Pokémon title also brings with it many more actual Pokémon to obsess over....

RPGs are significantly more mainstream and abundant these days. Most modern triple-A games have RPG mechanics and newer games like The Witcher 3 and Mass Effect are extremely popular. While we are all enjoying what studios are putting out these days, we should take a moment to appreciate all the RPGs that came before and paved the way for the games we love today. For this list, we are looking at specific mechanics from RPGs for the original PlayStation....

Sonic the Hedgehog has been a popular title for decades. This speedy blue hedgehog is so popular in fact, that he appears in several other video game franchises. While some of these games are fellow SEGA titles, many are not. Impressively, Sonic manages to make his way into Playstation and Nintendo titles as well. He also appears in many popular television shows, comics, and movies. Sonic’s cameos have been showing up since the early 1990s, making it difficult to recall every single instance....

Viewers of the Zack Snyder cut of Justice League will likely see this version as a more “complete” experience of the DC Universe film. Moreover, this finally shows fans a more concrete adaptation of the DC Comics super-team. However, it seems that the Snyder Cut has more to show than just an extra hour’s worth of footage. In fact, eagle-eyed DC Comics fans might notice some extra details that flesh out some intricacies within the film....

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has become a smash hit for the Nintendo Switch. Yet, it was the lesser-known, and more obscure Nintendo 64 romp from Japan two decades ago - which was later ported to GameCube - which started it all. This delightful lifestyle sim may look simple to the modern eye, especially compared to New Horizons. Yet, this originator holds a subtle complexity and appealing charm that’s rarely matched. As one might expect with an older game that’s as unique as this, the original Animal Crossing has its share of bizarre trivia and unique details surrounding it....

Millions of people have responded to a Facebook event that pledges to raid Area 51 on September 20 on the premise that “they can’t stop all of us.” Area 51, the ultra-secretive United States military base whose existence was just recently acknowledged by the government within the last decade, is rumored to hold aliens, experimental spacecraft, and more, so it’s no wonder people want to know exactly what’s inside. The Internet’s plan to raid Area 51 revolves largely around meme characters, like “Kyles,” “Karens,” and “Naruto runners....

Assassin’s Creed is a franchise that seems to be trying to work itself adrift from the concept of assassination and the ongoing battle between Assassin’s and Templars. Assassin’s Creed III featured a protagonist who seemed to only join the Assassin club for the cool clothes and weapons, and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag largely drops the pretense of being an Assassin game at all, instead letting the player run wild as pirate Edward Kenway....

Even though DICE and Battlefield 3 beta participants have been at odds over various perceived missteps on the part of the developer, it looks like, at least in one area, DICE has finally caved. According to a post on the Battlefield 3 forums, DICE has decided to bring the Caspian Border, 64-player map, into the PC beta of Battlefield 3 to do a little stress testing of their servers. In fact, at this very moment, the map is available to all PC beta participants....

Alongside their big multiplayer reveal extravaganza, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare publisher Activision had one final treat for fans of their long-running, billion-dollar franchise. In addition to the standard retail edition of the game, which will launch on November 4th of this year, Activision also revealed a special Day Zero Edition that grants early access to the game. While the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare — Day Zero Edition is not going to change the game as far as special editions are concerned, it does offer fans a 24-hour head start....

Over its eight-month life span Destiny has seen many changes, some big and some small. Developer Bungie ensured players before launch that they would continually improve the Destiny experience as part of its 10-year plan, and so far they have stuck to that promise. The latest Destiny update, numbered 1.2, just recently hit Bungie’s MMO-FPS hybrid this past week, and brought with it yet another set of gameplay changes and improvements....

Hot on the heels of the announcement that Assassin’s Creed will be adapted into a feature film, with Prometheus’ Michael Fassbender attached to star and produce, comes word that Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Eidos’ first person cyberpunk stealth title, will be made into a feature film as well. The property has been acquired by CBS Films, a relative newcomer in the film distribution game, who could make a big splash if they are able to competently bring this popular series to the big screen....

Disney Interactive’s toy/gaming hybrid product, Disney Infinity, shared the spotlight with the rest of the games featured in the Sony E3 presentation when the company announced that there would be PlayStation exclusive collector’s edition for the upcoming 2.o Marvel Super Heroes expansion. Buying the game on the PS3 or PS4 will give players access to the Hulk ahead of his release on the other platforms. Disney Infinity news continues to roll out today, with details about 2....
