Supposed new details have come to light about Modern Warfare II's upcoming CODBall mode, and it sure seems to be taking a lot of inspiration from Psyonix's Rocket League.
Images posted online seen by Insider-Gaming show Call of Duty Operators riding ATVs in a colorful, futuristic soccer/football stadium, with the aim of pushing a ball into the other side's net. There is video footage reportedly of this mode floating around the internet, too, in case you want to see it in action.

Mastering special moves and complex combos in Street Fighter games requires plenty of skill, but for Street Fighter 6, Capcom is planning to make the game more approachable with three separate control schemes. While the Modern control scheme streamlines the input process in comparison to the Classic setup, the Dynamic control scheme option does more heavy lifting for a player by executing attacks based on positioning.
An in-game AI helps gauge the best best attack for the situation...
Ahead of Black Friday, The Xbox Series S "Holiday" Console is now available at major retailers for $250. With the gift-giving season around the corner, the Xbox Series S will likely be a popular pick this year, especially at this limited-time $250 price. We wouldn't be surprised to see the console sell out in the coming weeks, so if you want to put the Xbox Series S under the tree, it's a good idea to buy it as soon as possible.
For shoppers who don’t know the difference between...
Arcade1Up's NFL Blitz Legends only just arrived at major retailers last month, but there's already a great deal on the home arcade cabinet at Amazon. NFL Blitz Legends is on sale for $479 until 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET.

Unsurprisingly, this is the first discount we've seen on the brand-new cabinet, which regularly sells for $600.

Reviews have gone live for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, the latest entry in the mainline pocket monster series. Like other major entries in the franchise, Scarlet and Violet introduces dozens of new Pokemon, gives players a new expansive region to explore, and adds a number of new gameplay mechanics to the signature gotta catch 'em all formula.
So far, reviews have praised the colorful Paldea region that the game takes place in and the smart gameplay tweaks introduced. One criticism from...
So far, I really enjoy Marvel's Midnight Suns, having now played about 15 hours of Firaxis Games' tactical RPG, which pulls inspiration from the developer's XCOM games. Removing XCOM's frustrating percentage system--which could cause even the most well-planned strategies to inexplicably fail--makes the turn-based tactical combat in Midnight Suns a lot more fun. And thanks to the deckbuilding card system, randomness still factors into the equation, creating a healthy bit of challenge.

The zombie game was first announced in 2014 for a 2015 release, but saw repeated delays, including losing its developer. The game then went quiet for years, with only enough news to assure fans that it was...

Sonic Frontiers' first piece of free DLC is already here, and it's a strange one. The crossover between Capcom's Monster Hunter and Sonic is perhaps one of the most unexpected we've seen this year, but there's no denying that the blue hedgehog's Rathalos costume is pretty cute.
This collaboration pack adds a few new outfits to the game, including the Hunter's Rathalos Outfit and the Felyne's Rathalos Outfit. It also includes Monster Hunter's famous grilling minigame, which can be found at...
