2024/05/10

In today's Daily Fix: In the fallout of the studio closures accross Bethesda this week, critical darling Hi-Fi Rush is getting review bombed on Steam. Don't freak out, it's a positive review bomb.

This makes the game the highest rated Microsoft or Bethesda game on Steam ever. In related news, Microsoft's no good very bad PR week

2024/05/08

In today's Daily Fix: Redfall's promised single-player update was set for sometime in May, and was being actively worked on until Microsoft closed the studio earlier this week. All development on the game has stopped, and the planned DLC set for this Halloween has been scrapped. This suggests that the studio had no prior warning that it was in danger of closing until the announcement from Xbox came.

In today's gaming news: If you've been wondering when Microsoft was going to announce Redfall's expected DLC, wonder no more. Microsoft has made significant cuts across Bethesda, shuttering Redfall developer Arkane Austin, as well as Tango GameWorks, Alpha Dog Games, and more. Some employees at those studios will be moved to other teams, but Microsoft did not mention anything specific about layoffs. Redfall had a disastrous launch last year—the game shipped with bugs and server issues, and was met

Sony Reverses Decision On Helldivers 2 PSN Account...

2024/05/06

In today's Daily Fix: Congratulations, Helldivers! You beat back the might of the Sony corporation, who mandated—undemocratically—that you link a PSN account to your game even when playing on PC. Developer Arrowhead was on the side of the gamers in this fight, even going so far as to suggest players leave negative reviews of Helldivers 2 (which they did) to get the message across to Sony that this was a bad idea. The requirement, had it gone into effect, would have also stopped players in more than

2024/05/03

In today's Daily Fix:Helldivers 2 fans are up in arms, but not over the latest major order or weapon nerf—Sony is now going to require PC players to link the game to a PSN account. Don't worry, it's free (it's NOT PS Plus), but it's yet another account you'll need to sign up for if you want to keep squashing bugs and bombing 'bots. In other news, Redfall recently celebrated its one-year anniversary, and by celebrating we mean Microsoft did absolutely nothing to acknowledge that milestone. In fact,

In today's Daily Fix: It finally happened: Grand Theft Auto 5 is on Switch. Well, not really, but it's proof that it can be done. Modders took the game's source code and got it running on the Nintendo Switch. It doesn't run well, but maybe if Rockstar put some resources behind an official port, it probably maybe sort of can be done. In other news, an EA exec is mad at Stellar Blade—not over the game itself, but that Stellar Blade is a pretty violent game, and somehow that passed the Japanese ratings

In today's Daily Fix:Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was released just two months ago, but there are signs that the game is falling short of sales expectations. The game's sales are slow compared to its predecessor Final Fantasy 7 Remake, and last summer's Final Fantasy 16. It also doesn't help that the game is a PS5 exclusive (there are fewer PS5's currently sold than PS4's), and it costs $10 more than FF7 Remake did back in 2020.
