If you are not familiar with Community Days, they are monthly occurrences in Niantic’s perpetually lucrative cash cow. During these special events, trainers will benefit from accelerated progression and rare Pokemon becoming more prolific out in the wild. Often landing on a weekend, they are simply the best time to play this augmented-reality game if you want to avoid the chore of tedious grinding. While it is typical for a Pokemon GO Community Day to be just that (a single day), Niantic are making a bigger deal for December’s iteration, as it’s the last one for the year....

When Human Head Studios was severed from its Prey 2 development duties by parent company Bethesda, according to a report that surfaced this weekend, it punctuated a 5-year run of development that included frequent cancellation rumors and limbo reports, but also substantial intrigue around a shooter that emphatically impressed audiences at E3 2011. Even worse, in shifting rights to the project over to developer Arkane Studios, Bethesda has purportedly scrapped the entire volume of what Human Head created, deciding to build the game from scratch as System Shock homage (i....

One key aspect of PlanetSide 2 that players praise is its free-to-play model. Prior to release SOE CEO John Smedley explained that the game’s cash shop “will not sell a more powerful gun or vehicle” so that PlanetSide 2 won’t become unbalanced between those who have forked over cash and those who haven’t. It’s not pay-to-win. The SOE team applauds League of Legends’ freemium model (League of Legends only charges players for character skins and currency boosts) and takes inspiration from that....
