IGN.com - Daily Fix (Video) ·

2024/08/05

In today's Daily Fix: Xbox has officially delayed Avowed to February 18th, 2025. Their reason? Too many games. Xbox is apparently aware of the packed release window toward the end of 2024/early 2025, so they want to make sure the game gets the attention it deserves, even if that means delaying its release. In other news, Sega has trademarked Yakuza Wars, which sounds like the next entry in the popular Like a Dragon series. Unfortunately the trademark paperwork doesn't even mention that this is a

2024/07/22

On today's Daily Fix:Since the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine movie is a team-up, it just makes sense for that Xbox Deadpool butt controller to get a partner, too. So of course Microsoft would tease a Wolverine-themed controller, complete with a curvy backside—unfortunately just like the Deadpool one you can't just buy this. You'll have to check Microsoft's Instagram account for details. In EVO 2024 news, Bandai Namco has announced the return of a popular Tekken character. And on the other side of

In today's Daily Fix:The long-anticipated College Football 24 is a huge success even before launch. Players could get early access to the game starting July 16, but only if they paid almost $100, which could be an extra couple hundred million dollars for publisher EA. In other news, the Federal Trade Commission is not too happy about the Game Pass price hikes (see, the government is just like us), saying the Standard Tier is a "dregraded product."

2024/07/18

Better late than never, right? Nintendo has unveiled its latest accessory to the Switch: a charging stand for your Joy-Con. This would've been great...maybe at launch? And it's not like the Switch was in desperate need for a charging stand—Hori makes a pretty good one AND it's an officially licensed Nintendo product. The kicker? The Hori stand charges four Joy-Con at once, while Nintendo's only does two. In other news, Sony may have accidentally leaked the latest Helldivers 2 Warbond themselves, and

2024/07/12

In today's Daily Fix:The Nintendo Switch has broken records left and right since its launch in 2017, and it's continuing to do so. The hybrid console now has the title of 'longest-running console without a replacement' in Nintendo's history, going for 2,688 days and counting. The NES had a run of 2,686 days but the Super Nintendo was launched in the 90's to overtake it. A successor has not yet been announced, so the Switch will be adding to its record until then.

We'll be seeing som top nudty, but it's unclear if we're getting bottom nudity, as well.

2024/07/08

In today's Daily Fix: A former developer with Rockstar basically confirms what we all knew about the canceled Grand Theft Auto 5 DLC: it was scrapped because GTA Online became too successful. Basically, after GTA 5 shipped, a lot of that team moved on to Red Dead Redemption 2, leaving a smaller group to work on story DLC. But GTA Online blew up and some of the DLC was repurposed for online content. So in a nutshell, we didn't get GTA 5 DLC because you all spent too much money on GTA Online. Kidding

2024/07/01

If there's anyone more excited than Nintendo fans to get their hands on the company's followup to the Switch, it's scalpers who are hungry to resell the consoles at stupidly high markups! But in a recent Q&A with investors, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa suggested they're well-aware they'll need to produce enough supply to keep up with the demand for their new console if they don't want a repeat of the Nintendo Switch's launch, which saw the hybrid handheld getting routinely scooped up by
