For many divers, the fight against the Automatons can feel like Hell on Super Earth. Among the most challenging of the metal army is the Hulk, which takes some ingenuity, precise aim, and good firepower to kill inHelldivers 2. Oddly enough, fighting a Hulk on its own isn’t always so bad once you’re used to it.

It’s also not as easy to get as you’d think. So here’s how to get a Pomegranate inThe Sims 4....

The late game ofWarframeis an interesting place. On the one hand, there’s alot of grindingthat needs to be done to get anywhere further with your best builds.

Grotesquely Beautiful Earlier this week I got the chance to take a closer look at one of Titan Books’ recent iOS endeavors,Awakening: The Art of Halo 4 Enhanced Edition. While I enjoyed seeing the beautiful and picturesque vistas created by John Liberto and Sparth as well as the rest of the art team at 343 Industries, I couldn’t wait to dive into the messy and terror-filled corridors ofThe Art of Dead Space Enhanced Edition....

There are 135 Pals in Palworld if you count all of the variants as separate Pals, but players are obsessing over just one of them. Depresso is the living embodiment of adult life, and players can’t get enough of his less-than-enthusiastic approach to life and responsibilities. Why do people love Depresso? Right from the moment you throw a ball at Depresso’s face and then proceed to force it into servitude at your base camp, the Pal’s demeanor just screams, “I don’t want to be here” and personally, I think that’s a feeling that everyone can relate to....

BLAT BLAT WITH MY GAT! Daniel Dae Kim may be famous for his roles onLostandHawaii Five-O, but to me, he will always be Johnny Gat.

Imagine if Kim actually was that psychopathic or narcissistic in real life. In a fitting bit of tribute, Deep Silver has announced that Gat will be available inAgents of Mayhemif you pre-order the game from GameStop (or Steam for PC)....

As voted on by the Destructoid community, Conrad plays each game from start to finish live onDestructoid’s Twitch.tv channelevery weeknight at 8pm Pacific] On Friday, we started in onMega Man Legends 2. For a game more than ten years old, and a 3D shooter at that, it’s surprising how impressed I’ve been by the opening hours. The character designs go a long way in helping and are an example of doing great design by making use of your limitations, as they feel totally appropriate to the low-polygon count models....

I might pop in for a minute Mass Effect: Andromedamight have shipped over two million copies, but it had a disastrous effect on BioWare’s image — not unlike Bungie’s recentDestiny 2troubles. Not only did the myriad glitches and lack of post-launch support hurt the company’s profile, but BioWare Montreal was merged into Motive Studios as a result. What once was a glorious new beginning forMass Effectstarted to look like the end....
