Over the past few years, the premium controller market has become increasingly competitive. Microsoft's Xbox Elite Series 2 remains one of the most recognizable options in the category, but growing demand for drift-resistant thumbsticks, Hall-effect sensors, and advanced customization has opened the door for manufacturers like 8BitDo to challenge the status quo. The 8BitDo Ultimate 3 for Xbox feels like the company's strongest effort yet. On paper, it checks nearly every box you'd expect from a modern enthusiast-grade controller. Magnetic sensor thumbsticks, Hall-effect triggers, remappable inputs, wireless charging, software customization, and multi-platform connectivity are all present and accounted for. What […]
Plus impressions for RE2 and 3.Digital Foundry has provided its tech review for Resident Evil 4 on Switch 2, while also sharing some brief impressions of RE2 and RE3.Starting with RE4, it's noted that the game has a "range of downgrades" compared to its PS5 counterpart, which isn't particularly surprising.

Just a six minutes and 40 seconds opening movie.Gran Turismo 7 developer Polyphony Digital really, really loves cars. You would hope it does, anyway, since it makes one of the most successful racing series of all time. However, the Japanese team is obsessive about them, and it's proud of it.There's no better display of that in its brand new Gran Turismo 7 opening movie, which has been updated and refreshed to coincide with the release of the PS5, PS4 game's Spec IV update today.Read the full article on pushsquare.com

Rockstar Games has just published the Grand Theft Auto VI launch trailer on YouTube. At 90 seconds long, it is a medley of new scenes that focuses mostly on conveying the game's feel rather than unveiling any particular gameplay mechanics. The trailer also features the new song “Flower in a Hurricane" from Justice feat. Tame Impala, SZA, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. Justice, a French electronic duo consisting of Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay, are also mentioned by Rockstar as the composers of Grand Theft Auto VI's original score. The song is included in Grand Theft Auto […]

I got an early look at it, and there's one key thing that might set it apart in a very, very crowded genre: combat is optional.

As part of new "Xbox Research" surveys being sent to Insiders.Last night, the folks at Windows Central broke some news when they shared a survey that is apparently being sent out to Xbox Insiders, questioning how fans would feel in terms of various exclusivity scenarios.For example, the most bold question asks the reader to imagine that "all future title releases from every XBOX-developed gaming franchise except Call of Duty will be console-exclusive to XBOX", and that Minecraft would no longer be purchasable (but still accessible for existing owners) on PlayStation and Nintendo as well.Read the full article on purexbox.com
4811 days, or 687 weeks and 2 days, or simply 13 years, 2 months, and 2 days: that's how long it's been from the original launch of GTA V to the scheduled and now imminent release of GTA VI. For the record, that's substantially longer than the entire period between GTA III and GTA V (4348 days, or 11 years, 10 months, and 26 days). Why did it take Rockstar Games so long, though? That's a question millions of fans have asked themselves over these past years, and now Jason Schreier has tried to answer it in his latest video. […]
