It takes an especially selfish kind of person to buy hundreds or thousands of PS5 units and resell them at a marginally higher price. But we live in a free market, right? Sure, if scalpers manufactured the PS5, then they could sell it at whatever price they wanted. Unfortunately, these groups continue to operate despite the severe backlash expressed by the gaming community. The next-gen hardware will come back in stock eventually; it’s just a matter of time....

After years of anticipation, and Sony stringing consumers along with small reveals throughout the year, the PlayStation 5 is finally here. By all accounts, Sony knocked it out of the park, delivering a console bursting with great new features and one of the strongest launch line-ups in gaming history. But it’s only with the console in our hands that we’re really starting to understand how some of those features work....

In recent years, Capcom has done right by Resident Evil. Resident Evil 7 took a few risks that ultimately paid off, while the remakes of the second and third mainline entries both managed to modernize their respective titles in a way that kept the cores of the originals intact. The franchise has come a long way since Resident Evil 6. A lot has been said about the numbered entries, but Resident Evil also has a storied history of spin-offs, many of which tend to be immediately forgotten due to being mediocre at best....

A Call of Duty: Warzone world record that has stood for 7 months has been broken. 14 year old Bruno “Nistaf” Silva and his father broke the previous record of 76 kills in the Duos category of Call of Duty: Warzone with their own record of 79, though the young Silva put on a standout performance as he racked up 61 kills to his father’s 18. The Duos playlist was added to Warzone in May of last year after it had been highly requested for some time....

As games (and the gaming industry) grow larger and more complicated, it’s easy to look back with nostalgia on the simple pleasures of the best NES games. However, even those seemingly simple NES games often held secrets that went undiscovered for years. While publications like Nintendo Power made a few early NES secrets relatively common knowledge, most NES gamers had to rely on word of mouth to discover some of gaming’s earliest Easter eggs, major glitches, and other strange secrets....

YouTube user and video gamer JoeFenix didn’t plan on clearing out Bloodborne’s Chalice Dungeons. “I only intended to play through the main game… on my LVL 4 character,” he says. After all, beating the From Software’s latest title, which is making waves in the gaming community for its fair but punishing difficulty curve, is hard enough; doing so with a Waste of Skin character (the game’s weakest starting class) at the lowest possible level is even harder....

Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel star Charisma Carpenter took to her Twitter page today, releasing a two-part statement that accuses the series creator and director Joss Whedon of harassment and abuse. She is not the first person to come publicly with accusations of unprofessional and hostile behavior, and says that her statement is in direct support of others who have come forward with similar experiences. The majority of Carpenter’s statement details verbally aggressive and abusive behavior she allegedly went through at the hands of Whedon, including body shaming, name-calling, and mocking her religious beliefs....

Since CD Projekt RED announced at its Summer Conference that one of its next two AAA+ titles would be a role-playing game based upon Michael Pondsmith’s Cyberpunk 2020 pen and paper game, very little information has been forthcoming on the project. CD Projeckt RED did mention that its exploration of this universe would not simply be a re-skinned game based upon the foundation of The Witcher 2 and also released a character rendering to provide some insight into the art style of the game, but there is still a lot that is unknown about Cyberpunk....

While one of the main draws of the Far Cry franchise has always been the single player campaign, many gamers find themselves increasingly enticed by the multiplayer portion of each title. In addition to taking to online battlegrounds with friends, a key feature that has developed a strong following is that of the map editor. Unfortunately with the launch of Far Cry 4 drawing near, it has been confirmed that the game will not support some of these much-loved features upon release....

In just a few short years, Telltale Games has become a household name among gamers. Although they’ve been around for over a decade, it wasn’t until they released the first season of their episodic Walking Dead game that gamers as a whole took notice. Since the first season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead released in 2012, Telltale has continued to deliver incredibly popular games that feed off and expand on the stories of other television series and games....

The penultimate episode of The CW’s Arrow was designed as a backdoor pilot for a Green Arrow and the Canaries spin-off. However, the network has officially pulled the plug on the Katherine McNamara-led series after months of speculation regarding the future of the project. With Arrow concluding its eight-season run after launching The CW’s lucrative Arrowverse franchise, the network began developing a female-led spin-off with McNamara, Katie Cassidy, and Juliana Harkavy set to reprise their roles from the series....

Given the more subdued approach Netherrealm Studios employed the last time they featured DC superheroes in one of their fighting games, many fans are wondering how violent their next venture, Injustice: Gods Among Us, might be. Trailers for the game feature the same fluid animation style of Mortal Kombat 9, NetherRealm’s reboot of their bread-and-butter franchise, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the capacity for violence has also transferred over. In that aforementioned DC heroes game, Mortal Kombat vs....

Madden NFL has long been king of the sports games, and it’s backed every year by a marketing push that begins well in advance of the game’s release. Just like every other sports game on the market, each new iteration of Madden is pitched as the best version of the game ever made, and there are millions of gamers who happily climb aboard the hype train every year. One area in which Madden has distanced itself from other sports games, however, is the relationship it has with the sports league the game is based on....

First look trailers of both HD Collections of Metal Gear Solid as well as ICO and Shadow of the Colossus have been released at the Tokyo Game Show this week. Each franchise, in their own respective rights, have held a special place in gamer’s hearts as leading titles for the PlayStation 2. Presently with HD gaming in full force, developers are looking to upgrade these classics to give you the full force they were meant to harness when they arrive later this year....

Mortal Kombat X has been wildly successful on consoles, receiving rave reviews from critics and gamers alike. Those who have been playing the game on PC, however, have been experiencing a handful of debilitating bugs and framerate issues, especially while playing online. This has, understandably, led to many unhappy Mortal Kombat X PC players. Fortunately, it looks like those issues should be gone tomorrow, at least according to NetherRealm’s head honcho, Ed Boon....

Hockey fans will likely already be downloading the recently released playable demo of NHL 12, hoping that the small sample of modes will be enough to tide them over until the game’s full release. But with an endless parade of trailers and new features teased for this year’s installment of the hockey series, how do they work in action? We’ve spent a good amount of time with the NHL 12 demo, so read on for our first impressions....

Hockey fans around the world are already gearing up for the NHL playoffs, but simulation sports gamers (and maybe those fans whose teams didn’t make the cut) are instead looking forward to the release of NHL 13. Fans of the series have come to expect improvement and refinement on an annual basis, but with a fan vote being used for the first time to determine which skater will grace the cover of NHL 13, it’s hard to know exactly what to expect....

After THQ declared bankruptcy and was subsequently forced to auction of all of their relevant IPs, in-development titles, and studios, talk instantly jumped to delays. With a changing of the guard taking place across the board, most figured many of the games that were on track for 2013 would slip to 2014. Luckily, one by one the publishers now in control of these titles — like Saints Row 4 and Metro: Last Light for example — have come out to assuage fan fears....
