Valve’s new hero shooter, Deadlock, hasn’t even officially launched yet, but cheaters are already becoming a problem. The game is currently in the midst of a closed beta, meaning players can only access the game via an invite from another player. But that hasn’t stopped the game from gaining massive popularity, and as is the case with many online shooters, more players means more cheaters.

“When a user is detected as cheating, during the game session the opponents will be given a choice between banning the user immediately and ending the match or turning the cheater into a frog for the rest of the game and th…
Lego’s awesome Super Mario World building set is available for a discounted price at Amazon. Normally $130, the 1,215-piece pixelated model of Mario and Yoshi is available for $117.52. The caveat here is that the set ships from Amazon Japan, which means it’ll take longer to arrive. That said, it’s the exact same kit, you’ll get free shipping, and you can purchase it on Amazon’s US storefront.
Considering that Lego Mario & Yoshi released in October and has yet to receive a discount from a US-based retailer, Amazon’s deal on an imported edition is definitely worth considering. Earlier this month, this same listing dropped to roughly $120 before shooting back u…
Earlier this month, Annapurna Interactive lost the entirety of its staff after all 25 members collectively resigned and walked out. The news came as a shock to some, as Annapurna has published a number of highly praised games (including Stray, Outer Wilds and The Artful Escape) and is currently in the process of developing a Blade Runner game. So what happened?
A recent report from IGN sheds some light on the issue. According to the report, changes in leadership played a major role, but the tale leading up to the mass walkout is a complicated one that requires a quick history lesson on the company’s past to truly understand.
Annapurna Interactive was founded by Annapurna Pictures owner (and daughter of billionaire Larry Ellison) Megan Ellison in 2016. At …
