UK retailer GAME now asks for a £50 deposit when you pre-order a SNES mini in-store.
That's up from the £10 we reported earlier this morning.
On Twitter, GAME's Scunthorpe branch responded to one potential customer to explain the raised deposit price. "Supply is low, demand is high. And deters scalpers."
Bungie says Destiny 2 will improve the storytelling of the franchise, with a story that will be easy to follow and a multitude of avenues for players to experience narrative.
The last thing you want to worry about when you’re playing a video game, especially an immersive one like an MMORPG, is a damn clock, right? Massively OP reader Rick thinks so — he’s not a fan of time limits (or even timer lockouts) on completing dungeons, boss fights, or other content. “Are timers a challenge or simply a lazy...
E3 2017 may have come and gone, but of all the presentations at the event, one stood out among all the others, not for having the best show or debuting…
When I wrote about the addition of Loadouts to The Division—a feature that was originally planned for update 1.7—last month, I linked back to an article of Tim's which suggests the game's ‘Year Two’ expansion plan dooms it to a slow death. Whether you side with that argument or not, I feel Ubisoft nevertheless deserves some credit with regards to its ongoing support of its open world shoot 'em up.
If you've followed the Elite Dangerous Thargoid saga, you'll already know it kicked off with the discovery of an alien crash site, and led to players uncovering a selection of alien ruins and artifacts. Alien spacecraft was sighted thereafter, and now players have found a Thargoid machine and have worked out how to activate it.
Thargoid-hunting Elite players have managed to find a massive, operational base in a desolate corner of the galaxy - and now they’ve turned it on. Inside are drones, alien devices and even a massive galaxy map. You can see an ongoing stream above, for as long as it runs.

Hello there! I’m currently browsing my week’s reading list while listening to the rise and fall in sparrow chirping outside my window. There’s a baby in the nest box and an increase in the volume of tweeting means an adult has popped by with something for the baby to much on excitedly. The noise creeps […]
Arizona Sunshine on PSVR is a nightmare to control with Sony's Move controllers. The game, originally released for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift late last year, is a VR zombie shooter that allows the player to wander around a dusty desert landscape blasting the undead in the head whilst dual-wielding a large number of real world weapons.
Unfortunately the Move controllers lack one simple thing that make this experience intuitive - analogue sticks. Without them, forward movement and full body turns have to be controlled by the face buttons of the Move, which is an aggravating, confusing experience that hinders your ability to navigate freely.
When you're in a virtual world you're aiming for full immersion and for that to happen, movement needs to be a reflex action. Nothing pulls you out of an experience quicker than a terrible control scheme, and having to pause and fumble with the Move controller when a horde of zombies is baring down on you is as far from satisfying as you can get.
