During a recent conversation on the FPS Podcast with Skill Up, he suggested that while Sony has released some incredible, high-quality games this generation, players might soon be getting tired of games that focus so heavily on realistic graphics and demanding performance.
As a big Zombies fan, I was really hyped to see some of the older artwork that inspired the new maps! But honestly, that wasn’t what really got people talking. Sure, there might be hints of ideas they tried and tossed aside that could show up later, but it’s the cover art itself that’s got everyone buzzing. They used the same image of a severed hand from the BO3 Zombies Chronicles expansion, but instead of screenshots from the game, they filled it with pieces of artwork. A lot of us think Treyarch is subtly hinting at a sequel to Zombies Chronicles – a second expansion with classic maps – and we’re all hoping it’ll be included in Black Ops 7!
When players talk about a game being too difficult or unfair, they often mention having to repeatedly travel back to bosses after dying. This is especially common in action-adventure games, particularly those inspired by Dark Souls, like the Hollow Knight games. These games are known for making players replay sections they’ve already mastered, which can be frustrating. Hollow Knight: Silksong, with its challenging combat, is likely to face criticism for this, as frequent deaths will mean even more time spent retreading old ground. Many players see these long trips back to bosses as an unnecessary addition to the game’s difficulty and a significant drawback.
Even before its official announcement in September 2024, the PlayStation 5 Pro was widely anticipated, with rumors circulating as early as March 2024.

In most main Pokemon games, the move Substitute creates a temporary copy of the user, but it costs 25% of the Pokemon’s maximum health. This copy takes damage instead of the original Pokemon, and disappears once it takes enough hits. Having a Substitute out can help a Pokemon survive a potentially knockout attack, giving it a chance to attack back or switch to another Pokemon. It’s a useful defensive tactic in competitive battles, and as of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, almost any Pokemon can learn it.
Each week, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex continues to surprise fans with new developments, and the consistent quality from Ikemoto and Kishimoto is truly impressive. While it doesn’t quite reach the level of the original Naruto, it’s still a fun and engaging series, making it an exciting read for fans. Like any good story, Boruto‘s strength lies in its characters, and some are definitely more popular than others. While Boruto Uzumaki, the main character, is well-liked, fans are even more enthusiastic about characters like Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.
The method? “Quantum echoes,” a technique that involves firing targeted waves at a qubit (the quantum world’s answer to a lightbulb) and listening for the echo. One might imagine it akin to shouting at a wall and claiming victory if it shouts back. 🤖
