Coming across Easter eggs is one of the most fulfilling things in video games. There’s a slight sense of belonging you get when you understand a certain reference, or realise that you share similar interests with the developers. However, certain Easter eggs are so well hidden that you may not find them even after 20 years, like this one in the original 2001 Xbox. An anonymous developer who worked on the Xbox informed Kotaku that there was a hidden Easter Egg in the Xbox Dashboard....

Many game companies have game IPs that haven’t been used in years despite the demand to see more from them. Ubisoft is no exception with the company having numerous games that players and fans want more from. Some of these games sadly haven’t gotten follow-ups in over ten years, and with Ubisoft being first founded in 1986, there are a lot of games owned by the company. Each one of these games has their own fanbase that would greatly appreciate something new to enjoy....

While there’s no doubt that the FIFA series provides the ultimate football experience, the North American side of things often feels like it has little representation in the game. Having expanded to 19 teams (with 5 new teams joining in just the last 5 years), it’s safe to say that soccer (or football, to use proper phrasing) has plenty of support across the continent - except when it comes to the FIFA series....

A copyright claim by Activision claiming an indie shooter game used some assets from the Call of Duty franchise causes the game to be pulled from Steam. The game in question is called Orion. It’s an open-world sci-fi shooter developed by Trek Industries and a $0.99 game on Steam. It was also available this week for half that price, making it $0.49 during the ongoing Steam Summer sale. However, Orion has been pulled from Steam after Activision filed a copyright claim against the game, saying Orion used art assets from Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare....

Alan Parker, a British film-making legend known for his versatility and excellence, passed away today. He was 76. His influential career was filled with accolades that spanned film making in advertising, movies, and television. He spent most of his career in the directors chair, which more often than not led to awards from his peers. Parker’s films combined to win 39 awards: 19 from the British Academy of Film and Television arts (BAFTA), 10 Golden Globes and 10 Oscars....

A leaked video teasing the start of Warzone Season 5 appears to confirm that there is indeed a loot train headed for Verdansk. There’s nothing battle royale players like to do more than speculate as to how the game they love most will change next. As soon as something major happens, data miners are busy digging in an attempt to discover if something even bigger is around the corner. In games where change is inevitable for the title to survive, it’s to be expected but must be incredibly frustrating for the developers....

While there are many video games tied to certain political beliefs, most gamers wouldn’t say that Among Us is one of them. While it was recently played by American politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitch, the stream was more focused on fun than the current American political system. Recently however, some players in public games in Among Us have been getting a far different experience from the game. This is due to hacker Eris Loris doing what they’re known for on YouTube and hacking the game....

Nuestra opinión El diseño: Detalles y desventajas La pantalla: ¿Un salto cuántico? El software: ¿UX redux? Rendimiento: ¿Mejorando la batería? La cámara: Un toque de clase Para recapitular Al igual que su predecesor, el LG G4 logra un delicado equilibrio entre smartphone y phablet, entregado con poco compromiso y a un precio inferior al de sus competidores más cercanos. Y con un rendimiento de la cámara tan bueno como este, el G4 sin duda hará que el nombre de LG destaque en el mundo de los smartphones....

Rovio has unveiled the first augmented reality iteration of its Angry Birds franchise, appropriately named Angry Birds FPS: First Person Shooter. Of course, it’s a bit of a unique take on the FPS genre, as gamers will take control of the infamous slingshot present in previous games and complete various physic puzzles. However, to play this game, the gamer will need to own Magic Leap’s latest AR headset, which retails for $2,300....

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has taken customisation in the series to a whole new level. Previously in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, talented designers could share designs with a fiddly QR code that was prone to JPEG degradation. Now, sharing designs is intrinsic - with a simple visit to the Able Sister’s Custom Designs Portal, players can share their creations with the world. Inspired by the world of films, some players are recreating their favourite character outfits from their favorite movies....

Want to look like your favorite character from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure in Animal Crossing? Here’s a few QR codes that will scratch that itch. If there’s one thing we’ve learned from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it’s the potential for anyone to customize their island to be a never-ending meme machine. There are a few folks who have decided to go the conventional route and turn their islands into monuments to completely different games, and then there’s this island that’s become a tribute to Danny Divito....

Ever since developer BioWare began talking about how luck works in Anthem, players were left with more and more questions. How did luck influence loot drops? Did it make loot more plentiful or did it improve the quality of the loot that did drop? These and more were some of the questions that Anthem players would continuously ask the BioWare devs, but finally those can come to an end. Anthem is removing the Luck stat from the game....

Apex Legends has leaked a new limited-time mode as a part of the Halloween event. Much like last year, the Apex Legends Halloween event will feature themed skins, rewards and a spooky LTM. Last year, the Shadowfall mode was including in the Fight or Fright Halloween event, and this year, the Shadowfall mode returns with a few twists. The Apex Legends Halloween event is expected to start later this month and will include new challenges, the return of lootbox spiders scares, and a variant of the infected-like game mode Shadowfall....

Locked and Loaded introduced itself as the Town Takeover Event for Apex Legends’ Season 8, and since then, it’s become a huge hit with fans. Many love the way it subverts the rules of a battle royal. Instead of scrambling for loot upon landing in the arena, players instead spawn with a few low-tier items: a Mozambique, two shield cells, and two syringes. The mode also eliminates all grey loot from the pool, leaving only rare and higher drops for players to find....

A leaked photograph of a supposed iPhone 7 phone case seems to indicate that the iPhone 7 won’t feature headphone jacks, which may force the use of wireless earbuds. Since Apple has confirmed that the iPhone 6 and 6S were the company’s fastest selling phones, the public has been eagerly awaiting to hear what Apple can cook up for the next generation, which is expected sometime this fall. Yesterday, a tweet from the OnLeak Twitter account has brought rumors that the iPhone 7 won’t include a headphone jack back to the surface, thanks to some leaked photographs of a supposed iPhone 7 case....
