Skyrim, Fallout Developer No Longer Giving Out Early Review Copies

Bethesda Softworks, publisher of Skyrim, Fallout, Doom, and other sizable video game series, has announced that they will no longer be providing advance review copies of their games to any media outlet any earlier than one day prior to release.

The publisher released a blog post on their official site earlier today explaining this decision, stating that "While we will continue to work with media, streamers, and YouTubers to support their coverage – both before and after release – we want everyone, including those in the media, to experience our games at the same time." This statement more or less echos how Bethesda handled the launch of Doom earlier this year.

IGN Web Site and Video player Performance Issues

IGN website and video player performance have been and continue to be affected by the DDoS attacks against Dyn today. Dyn provides hosting for several websites, including third-party services that support our video player. This is the same attack that has impacted Twitter, Reddit, Netflix, and a number of other high profile services.

The outage is not impacting everyone: there are some users who can play videos with no problem. Our engineering team is implementing a workaround that should restore full service soon.

Though the situation is improving, Dyn is now reporting it is being hit with a third wave of attacks. IGN will continue to monitor the situation and work to restore normal service as soon as possible. Once things are stabilized, the engineering team will also be investigating ways to structure our video system to minimize these risks moving forward.

September Saw Sports Games at the Top of Sales

The best selling game for the month of September 2016 was NBA 2K17 according to numbers released by the NPD Group.

The next 3 games on the list were also sports titles, with Madden NFL 17,  FIFA 17, and NHL 17 rounding out the top 4.

Overall spending was down 23% over last year, according to the NPD Group. Neither the second month of the Xbox One S nor the debut of the PS4 Slim were "enough to stimulate total hardware spending."

Last week Microsoft announced its Xbox One was the top-selling console for September 2016, its third consecutive month at the top of the charts.

Zampella: No Regrets on Lack of Titanfall 1 Campaign

Respawn Entertainment opted to make Titanfall 1 a multiplayer-only experience, and despite disappointment from some fans over the game's lack of a single-player campaign, studio co-founder Vince Zampella believes it was ultimately the right move.

When asked during the latest episode of IGN Unfiltered whether or not he regrets not including a single-player campaign in the original Titanfall, Zampella responded with a confident "no."

With regard to why he believes the lack of a campaign in Titanfall 1 was the right choice, Zampella said the team was still developing a solid understanding of Titanfall's mechanics when crafting the first game's multiplayer, and it wasn't until after the game's launch that Respawn was capable of making a truly great single-player experience.

Injustice: Year Five #20 Review

Who would have thought when DC first started publishing their Injustice: Gods Among Us prequel comic that the series would eventually span several years, five volumes and hundreds of digital chapters by the time it finally concluded? This series certainly ranks among the most comprehensive prequels ever conceived. But there's a reason this comic has proven so popular over the years, and that appeal remains in the series finale.

Issue #20 carries Injustice: Year Five right up to the events of the game. Writer Brian Buccellato creates a tense "ticking clock" situation as Batman and Luthor struggle to bring the alternate universe Justice League into their world even as a vengeful Superman finally discovers Batman's hidden fortress. Even though the outcome of this battle is preordained, Buccellato has no trouble generating plenty of suspense along the way.

Why We Love Red Dead Redemption

Though Grand Theft Auto might be the first thing most people think of when the name “Rockstar” comes up, there’s no shortage of love for 2010’s stunning Red Dead Redemption. Rockstar San Diego’s second stab at the western genre, Redemption delivered a massive, beautiful, and deadly depiction of America and Mexico during the 19th century. On the heels of Rockstar’s announcement of Red Dead Redemption 2, we wanted to tell you why we personally love the open-world Western so much.

Spoilers ahead.

More than anything else, I'm excited by those seven figures on the poster and about the prospect of a multiple-protagonist setup like the one GTA V pioneered. Rockstar nailed the laconic Man with No Name, Shane vs. the world approach in Red Dead Redemption, but there's a whole other world of great Western traditions built around teams and relationships. The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Stagecoach, The Searchers, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and the Magnificent Seven all come to mind as potential inspirations. I want to see great writing and memorable playable characters thoughtfully employed in an interesting, interweaving story. -- Jared Petty

A Visual History of Battlefield

Battlefield revolutionized the first-person shooter when it made its 2002 debut with Battlefield 1942. It was among the first shooters to provide the opportunity for large-scale warfare, and encourage team-play dynamics above individual survival. From its roots in World War II, the Vietnam War, and modern-day military, to its exploration of future warfare, the "war on crime," and even a brief stint in casual games, Battlefield has come a very long way.

With a new Battlefield on the way, this one making a return to the early 20th century with World War I, we thought we'd take a look back on most of the major Battlefield games from 2002 to now. Below is the visual history of Battlefield.

In case you missed any of that, it's a 1:1 scale replica of Marcus Fenix's weapon in Gears of War 4, modeled off of in-game files. It has an adjustable sight, levers, switches and triggers, as well as a fully functional, removable flashlight. The weapon itself lights up with blue CoG-style LEDs, and takes 4x C batteries.

It should be mentioned that this prop replica doesn't make any noise and, of course, the chainsaw doesn't move, plus it features an orange tip so it's obvious it's not a real weapon - at least you won't get stopped at security!

Call of Duty Created as 'A Little Bit' of an F-You to Medal of Honor

Respawn co-founder and Call of Duty creator Vince Zampella recently talked with IGN to discuss the formation of Infinity Ward and the birth of Activision's wildly popular military FPS franchise, revealing that Call of Duty was created, in part, as a jab at EA and Medal of Honor, which Zampella had worked on at 2015 Inc.

On the latest episode of our monthly interview show IGN Unfiltered, we asked Zampella about where the idea for Call of Duty came from and whether or not it was an "f-you" to Medal of Honor, to which we responded by saying, "a little bit."

Zampella then went on to discuss how–following the success of their work on Medal of Honor: Allied Assault–Electronic Arts wanted to take ownership of the studio, something he and his team pushed back against. "Originally when we formed Infinity Ward we were working with EA. We had a deal to do the sequel to Medal of Honor," he explained. "Allied Assault did so well that EA wanted to pull it in house, so they tried to force us to come be part of EA. We didn't want to do that."

Each of the figures are around 7" tall (excepting the Ticker) but they have a varying amount of points of articulation and accessories. Here's where you can find them still available for purchase, though some have gotten pretty expensive:

Gears of Wars' 11 Most Memorable Moments

Gears of War is known for its bulky bros and over-the-top action, but across four games the Gears’ stories have pulled off much more than they often get credit for.

Bombastic battles will always be part of the Gears repertoire, but through excellent use of smart enemy design, comic relief, and defying player expectations, the franchise’s developers have created some of the best moments in any shooter. From all four games, here are the top 11 Gears of War campaign moments.

Full spoilers follow for Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3, and Gears of War: Judgment. You’ve been warned!

An ancient worm nearly 10 miles long is burrowing beneath the last remaining human cities and sinking them into the ground. It must be stopped. But what kind of weapon could possibly harm such a monster? This is Gears of War, so the answer is, as always... a chainsaw.

Which Game Console Is Most Expensive With Inflation?

Phil Spencer recently spoke out to temper concerns that the upcoming Project Scorpio, an evolution of Microsoft's Xbox One, would have a price point high above the standard for home gaming consoles. Specifically, he noted that players shouldn't be "worried that this thing is going to be unlike any console price you’ve ever seen."

But what exactly is the standard for traditional console pricing? Has that standard changed over time, and has inflation altered what we consider "expensive" for these pieces of hardware?

IGN took a look at over 25 consoles, their launch years, prices, and what their current day price would be, adjusted for inflation. Take a look at the table below which compares console prices starting with the 1972 launch of the Magnavox Odyssey through the launch of the PlayStation 4 Pro.

In addition to being based off of Michael Crichton's original 1973 film, HBO's new drama series Westworld draws inspiration from a number of video games, including BioShock, Red Dead Redemption and Skyrim.

In an interview with VICE, Westworld showrunner Jonathan Nolan said he believes "a lot of interesting storytelling that's happening right now is in video games" and while he's never worked in game development, he's "fascinated by the concept of writing a story in which the protagonists' actions aren't part of the story."

New Xbox Live Features Start Rolling Out Today

Microsoft announced a handful of new features coming to the Xbox Live Preview program on Xbox One and Windows 10 today.

The eSports-centric program will allow players of almost any ability to compete in online tournaments.

Killer Instinct is the first title on Xbox Live Arena.

While Arena is still in Preview, participants in Xbox Live's limited program can compete in daily Killer Instinct practice tournaments. At rollout, the tournaments will only be available in the U.S., but Microsoft plans to scale up the Arena system to Preview members in other regions in October. The Arena update was first announced by Microsoft earlier this year at E3.

Diablo 3: One of the Best Games I’ve Played in 2016

The bodies of a hundred demons lie strewn in our wake as we push forward. The dungeon we’re exploring has the feel of a temple swallowed whole by the Desolate Sands; its dusty walls weep endless streams of sand. Kormac, my Templar companion, pipes up during a rare moment of silence. “I tried to count how many we killed,” he barks with confidence, “but I’ve lost track.” I chuckle at his almost comedic level of nonchalance; he’s clearly seen all of this before. “By all that is holy!” Kormac shouts, breaking the silence yet again, “do you see that enemy over there?” I spot a towering bulb of flesh lumbering its way towards us, leading a horde of smaller creatures, all thirsty for our blood.
