The collaboration between Pokemon and the Van Gogh Museum has been a disaster,at least for anyone wanting to pick up some merch legitimately. The event was meant to last until January next year, but all of the merch has already sold out both online and in-person. Worse yet, scalpers are now cashing out, trying to flog theirPokemoncards and other merchandise on eBay for hundreds of dollars at a time. The most sought-after item by far is the promo card, Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat, which is selling for well over $500 on its own....

It is not hard to get your money’s worth with Xbox Game Pass. I said that when it first launched at $5/month, and maintained that when it went up to $10/month ($15/month for Ultimate). Now it’s $11/month ($17/month) and it’s still the best deal in gaming. Game Pass added over 100 games so far this year, most of them brand new, and you only needed to play a small handful of them to make your subscription worthwhile....

TheSaints Rowreboot was initially planned to follow directly from Saints Row 4’s ending, but the idea was dropped early in development. This is according to an anonymous worker, who says that Saints Row’s development was a crunchy, hectic mess. In a new episode of Matt McMuscles’sYouTubeseries, What Happened?, the anonymous dev shares their experience on the project, which they say struggled to find its identity throughout development. After it was decided thatSaints Row 4would be left behind entirely, the dev says the team struggled to come up with a solid replacement for the old characters, leading to delays only exacerbated by mass resignations and issues with their publisher, Deep Silver....

The United Colonies and the Freestar Collective are some of the most prominent factions inStarfield, and their histories are deeply intertwined with one another. Not long before the events of Starfield, the United Colonies and the Freestar Collective were in a conflict known as the Colony War.

Starfieldhas a vast galaxy to explore, but most of it is empty. Only a handful of planets and systems are handcrafted like past Bethesda games, the others use procedural generation and often serve as spots for resource gathering and base building, rather than questing. But that hasn’t stopped DoomZero from fullysurveying over 1,000 planets, meaning that they found and scanned every landmark, creature, and resource on each. This took them around 180 hours (or 72 watches of 2001: A Space Odyssey), which in turn brought them up to a staggering level 130....

It’sSuper Mario Bros. Wonderweek. It’s alsoMarvel’s Spider-Man 2week andSonic Superstarsweek in what might well be the busiest few days for big releases in video game history. Ifthe review scores are anything to go by, Wonder is the game people are most excited about.

It will also introduce Elephant Mario to the Mushroom Kingdom, andNintendohas already confirmed the main character’s new look will be turned into a plush....

My Friendly Neighborhood has caused quite a ruckus in the indie horror game scene. A good ruckus, that is. We seem to love games that take concepts and characters created for children and turn them into bone-chilling masterpieces. With the success of Five Nights at Freddy’s, Poppy Playtime, and Amanda the Adventurer on our heels, it was about time we got something that derives from the ultimate children’s show: Sesame Street....

Summary InAssassin’s Creed Mirage, you’ll find connections to many of the past games in the series, maybe even more than any other game. It’s surprising because it is a smaller-scale world and story, but since it’s set afterOriginsand right beforeValhalla, and centuries before the first game, references to past and future time periods are bound to seep in. Sometimes, it can be a specific character mentioned, a story connection, or a plot point that will be developed in a later game....

You’d think a collection that only has six things to collect would be a pretty easy collection to complete. Usually it would be, but notPokemon Squishmallows.Squishmallowsare the hot toy of the moment right now. Combine that with Pokemon which continues to be hot more than 25 years after it burst onto the scene and you’ve got yourself a rather potent combination. If you want a Pokemon Squishmallow in time for the holidays, then you really need to buy it the moment it gets restocked....

For regularMarvel Snapplayers, Legion might seem like a meme card. Its ability is to turn all locations into the one he was played on, and with eight power that can certainly be impactful. But there are not that many ways to interact with locations, so while turning everything into Mojo World and playing Ultron sounds appealing, you can’t really control that. RELATED:Marvel Snap: Best Cards For Phoenix Force However, from the limited ways you have to change locations, there is one that appears in almost every game: the flood....
