What we're feeding the Maw

Merry Monday, readers. Edwin’s been struck down by a post-TennoCon lurgy, and we were only too happy to allow him some rest, provided he file his Soulframe and Warframe: Tau stories before collapsing into a feverish heap. We even agreed to feed the Maw in his absence, albeit without reaching a similar accord on responsibility for the litter tray.

Emma Frost is one of the most complex and nuanced characters in the X-Men universe, but if your main point of contact with the franchise is X-Men: The Animated Series, you wouldn't know it.

Black Flag Resynced certainly scratches my nostalgia itch, but do you know what else does? Assassin's Creed Black Flag

I've sunk legendary galleons, sailed across the Caribbean procuring plunder, and I've experienced Edward Kenway's redemption arc from start to finish. But upon rolling credits on Ubisoft's nostalgia-fuelled remake, I came to a realisation: almost everything good in Black Flag Resynced exists in the original game.

Helldivers 2 dev cracks down on 'suspicious super credit activity', though it would help if earning premium currency wasn't so boring to begin with

I'd never considered the prospect that some people might cheat at playing Helldivers 2. But I suppose it's inevitable given some people will find ways to cheat at anything. In this case, rogue Helldivers have found ways to game super credits—the premium currency used to buy Warbonds—to earn them at impossible rates, and it's become such a problem that Arrowhead has implemented new ways to tackle it.

The 7 best open-world fantasy RPG games to play like Avowed

According to a Bloomberg report this week, a new Fallout game is coming from Obsidian Entertainment, the developers responsible for Fallout: New Vegas. Some of us have been hoping for a followup to that RPG for 15 years or more, and now we might finally get our way. Unfortunately, those reports outlined bad news to go with the good: the project is apparently being built in place of a sequel to Avowed that had begun development but now is canceled, in the wake of some major layoffs at Obsidian and across Xbox, its parent company.

When Sega released its 32-bit Saturn console in 1994, it was inevitable that the platform’s speedy mascot, Sonic the Hedgehog, would get a star turn on the new hardware. But the team behind the blue blur didn’t release a new Sonic game right away. Instead, they made a forgotten roller-coaster 3D platformer called Nights into Dreams, which was released in Japan on July 5, 1996.

A piece of GTA modding history that was considered lost has been rebuilt from scratch and fixed 22 years later

Grand Theft Auto 3's Ghost City was my first proper experience of community discovery.

I was too young to fully appreciate game-breaking in the likes of Super Mario and Alex Kidd, so the idea of flying the clipped-wing Dodo aircraft from the runway of Frances International Airport at a very specific angle in order to break the 3D map and wind up in an otherwise inaccessible area—the section which housed the game's opening bank robbery cutscene, floating well beyond the playable map—blew my teenage mind.

After 11 movies in the Fast & Furious franchise, it can be hard to remember which one is which. Like, I know Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson go into space in one of the more recent ones, but I’m not sure which. I also recall Gal Gadot dying during a big showdown on an airport runway, but I have no idea what movie that is either.
