News::Super Smash Bros. 3DS online play allegedly auto-banning Peach

Is Peach your main in Smash Bros.? Well in Japan, she appears to be encountering an issue while playing online -- she's getting banned constantly. Multiple Japanese players are reporting that they are getting 24 hour bans for playing the character, possibly due to her turnip move being identified as an item (which is detected as a hack in the "no items" Final Destination mode).


I know what you're thinking -- fighters like Link have "items" too! Well it could be anything related to Peach's character, but it's unique to her at the moment. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

News::The Sims 4 Review | GES

"The Sims has proven to be quite the new age entertainment for all ages, but have we outgrown the game or does it still have value in the market?

News::Diablo III's Endgame Dungeons Can Be Disappointingly Empty


Greater Rifts in Diablo III are unforgiving sometimes—not because they're hard, but because you have 15 minutes to kill a huge amount of monsters, even if the dungeon doesn't actually have that many of them. YouTuber avtorouc entered one of these dungeons where the monster density was, well, quite low.

News::Get a closer look at the four playable characters in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel


Gearbox Software has been slowly releasing a four-part behind-the-scenes series of videos onthe making of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, leading up to the title's October 14 release. Episode One looked at the initial announcement, while Episode Two focused on the gameplay features that resulted in setting it on Pandora's moon Elpis. Today, Episode Three released, and it highlights the four playable characters.


In the video, various Gearbox and 2K Australia employees discuss how the four characters were decided upon, and how they feel to play. Special attention is given to Claptrap's nutso disco ball, which is only one of many possible action skills he can sport.


Given the rate at which these are releasing, we can probably expect the final video in this series, titled "Weapons and Post-Launch," to show up just a few days before the game itself.
