It’s impossible to shake the feeling that they’re just one big advertisement, for both upcoming video games and other products. Sponsorships galore throughout the presentation, and trailers for upcoming games blare between almost every award. Imagine if the Oscars ran trailers for films coming in the next year, no one would take them seriou
This latest incident is the second such moment in 2017 where PieDiePie has found himself in hot water over something he has said or done. A few months ago, the popular YouTuber drew criticism after he had made a series of anti-Semitic jokes in one of his videos , resulting in a considerable amount of fallout. Most notable, Disney ended its association with him and cancelled his YouTube Red horror s
With the fall lineup of Triple-A games finally about to hit retail, including this week's Destiny 2 and the long overdue major expansion and update to Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege today, soon to be joined by Star Wars: Battlefront II , Call of Duty: WWII , Assassin's Creed: Origins , and Far Cry 5 , there could be some competitors nipping at PUBG's player counts. To combat that however, PUBG will be available on Xbox One this holiday season as a console launch exclusive to coincide with the Xbox One X release , before the game releases in full early next y
The Game Awards ' 2017 nominees are exactly the games you’d expect. Horizon Zero Dawn has the most nominations, up for Game of the Year, Best Game Design, Best Narrative, Best Art Direction, and lead voice actress Ashly Burch has been nominated for Best Performance. Other candidates for Game of the Year are The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild , Super Mario Odyssey , Persona 5 , and most controversially, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , a game still in Early Acc
Titled "My Response," the short video is devoid of PewDiePie's trademark shock humor, and directly addresses his use of a racial slur. The YouTuber begins by saying that he always found the use of inappropriate racial slurs by other players "immature and stupid" before conceding that he hates how he "personally fed into that part of gaming as well." PewDiePie continues by saying that his use of a racial slur had "slipped out" in the heat of the moment and that he's "disappointed" in himself because this latest incident demonstrates that he has "learned nothing" from all his past controversi
With all the success and attention however, some things have of course changed. Microtransactions were rushed into the game in time for the Pubg Map Guide Invitational which is offputting, especially given the in sale after-market prices for skins and prices of the limited time crates (and keys to unlock them), but the worst part of the players is how the devs have slowed down on the game updates and virtually stopped communication with the community. This was called out on Reddit to which the PUBG Esports Program Manager responded to reveal a few things in progr
**PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** just hit the 8 million units old mark two weeks ago and already it's at 10 million. The extra momentum push in sales is in part due to the game's continued popularity as the most popular shooter broadcasted and viewed on streaming services like Twich.tv and as the game has topped the charts as the most played game on Valve's Steam platform, beating out Valve's own Dota 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensi
68 different games received a nomination, with Guerrilla Games' Horizon Zero Dawn leading the pack with ten nods. The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild follows with six nominations. Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice , Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, and Cuphead got five nods. Gorogoa, Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds , Super Mario Odyssey received four nominati
Considering the immense success PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has enjoyed due to the popularity of its violent concept, some may find Greene's stance on the matter somewhat hypocritical. Others may acknowledge Greene as simply trying to make a point about being mindful of other people when posting online since you don't know what they've been through. Regardless, it will be interesting to see if this online squabble will continue, or if Brandon Greene will tune Dr DisRespect out in favor of finishing the game in the next six mont
