With a lot of the same options as the Steam remote Steam is slowly assimilating every control method into its ever-expanding core, and it’s just as well. While Xbox controllers were king on PC in terms of ease of use, the DualShock 4 has slowly been climbing the ranks. During its “Steam Dev Days” conference in Seattle, Valve also unveiled some more advancements for DualShock users. Soon you can basically customize it as heavily as a Steam controller by way of the Steam API, which includes gyro and touchpad adjustments....

Bigger than the first The first everSuper Smash Conkicked off last year in Virginia, andit was a pretty relaxed, low-key affair, with a high tourney turnout and lots of energy. This year it’s grown quite a bit though and they’ve not only expanded their space on the floor, but added some extra activities into the mix. As you can see in the gallery, the 130,000 square foot venue isn’t jam packed, but it has a really nice turnout , and sports an early, successful con type of feel....

Of all the iconic moments inMetal Gear Solid, the battle against Psycho Mantis is tough to top. It’s both a cool boss fight and a mild deconstruction of your gaming habits! For those who haven’t squared off against this gas-masked psychic, one of his powers was the ability to read your memory card and make note of what you’ve been playing. This largely hinged on how many Konami games you had saved, but it was still wild at the time....

The poses are picture-perfect Iexpectedto be buried under an avalanche of silly mods forthe PC release ofSpider-Man, but thisSpider-ManKermit mod is something else. Located here on Nexus Mods from its creator TangoTeds, it’s basically a reskin of Peter Parker, utilizing the “Advanced Suit” (with the battle focus ability, which regenerates focus as its active) as a piggyback for the skin.

ModNation Racersis a PlayStation 3 exclusive I have had my eyes on since, well, it was announced at E3 2009. To sumthe experienceup, it’s an adorable-looking kart racer with a strong emphasis on user-generated content. Time and time again, people have even compared it toLittleBigPlanet, which makes sense, but I doubt we’ll see Level 1-1 faithfully recreated inModNation Racers(prove me wrong). Long story short, the creation tools the game provides you with look not only powerful, but relatively easy to learn/use as well....

Yes “early” as in two days early Update 11/30:Deal’s dead! Next best bet is this$299 GOW bundleor$349 1TB bundlewith free $60 gift code (which you can basically use to buy Fallout 4). Here’s an Xbox One Fallout 4 bundle thatcrept up on us“unexpectedly.” We somehow thought this sale was going to happen on Sunday night or else we would have mentioned it earlier.

47:59 is the time to beat BeforeBreath of the Wildwas out, Nintendo sent several copies to leading members of the speedrunning community, who were eventually able to figure out new tech together like“whistle sprinting,”which led to sub-hour runs. Now we’re getting down to the wire here with roughly 50 minutes, as the debate between amiibo use and non-amiibo use continues. Just after speedrunner Venick hit the record with 50:17 (following a massive glitch that ended his run entirely on the final boss gauntlet), sva161620has achieved 47:59as of yesterday on Wii U (which is a smidgen faster than Switch) without using the German translation, which would have saved them 10 seconds....
