Just announce the next game on Switch, already Last week, Capcom announcedMonster Hunter XX, which adds G-Rank and two new hunting styles toX(Generationsin the West). Considering I’m still working my way throughGenerations, this is all a little overwhelming, but I’ll probably still compulsively buy it and have my hands cramp on my 3DS through every arduous battle. According to aEsuterupost spotted byNeoGAF’s zeromcd73, Capcom wants to extend the series’ reach in the West, which may mean a focus on consoles....
Worthwhile-est game award Last time at the Destructoid Institute of Critiquing Kusoge, I looked atCastlevaniafor the N64. We’ve established that theCastlevaniaseries has never been very good when it comes to its 3D titles, but the N64 games are likely the most worthwhile. The second title on the N64,Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, is easily the worthwhile-est. That’s mostly because it’s essentially an apology forCastlevania64. Love it or hate it, it’s hard to deny thatCastlevania64 had the signs of rushed development....
PAX East 2022 is already a catastrophe I picked up my PAX East 2022 badge last night, and I found a strange note attached to it.The note, written in crayon,instructed me to go under the nearby footbridge for a meeting at 9PM.

The chances of me being seen as valuable enough to be kidnapped are (hopefully) pretty slim....

Throne and Libertyhas sort of become the next game to have the whole bot problem discussion around it. Farming for XP, money, and materials can be a slog. Without an auto attack on PC, many players have found other means of adding that feature into this game. Have you ever run into players in MMORPGs who are just farming the same monsters, materials, and other things in an overworld for hours with no interaction?...

Eevee poo is now canon I remember loving Tamagotchi’s back when I was a kid. It was a huge fad that swept the nation and then promptly disappeared into the night. Fond memories. Somehow, though, a brand new Tamagotchi is being released and it will also mark the first officialPokemonthemed one (Pocket Pikachu doesn’t count). Coming to Japan next year, the “Tamagotchi Nano” will come packed withPokemon’sEevee to likely capitalize on the growing popularity of the multi-faceted critter....

Heckin’ yeah One of the coolest aspects of EVO last year was that it finally broke onto television. Although plagued by audio issues (as both ESPN commentary and native Twitch stream commentary bled over one another), it was heckin’ neat to watch theStreet Fighter VTop 8 on ESPN2. It must’ve been successful enough last time to warrant another year since theStreet Fighter Vfinals will air on ESPN 2 (and the ESPN app) this year too....
