Lenovo Launches Legion Series Gaming Laptops With Y520 and Y720 | Tech Specs and Price
Crashing the gaming laptop party, Lenovo launched a new range of gaming laptops at CES yesterday, as part of the Legion series. Now, Lenovo isn’t exactly the name that comes to mind when one talks about gaming laptops, but the company plans to cover all the bases with their new series. Both the Y720 and Y520 will be powered by up to seventh-gen Intel i7 Kaby Lake processors, NVIDIA GTX 10-series graphic cards, 16GB DDR4 RAM and either a 512 GB SSD or a 2 TB HDD. This is also Lenovo’s dive in to the world of virtual reality as the GTX 1060 in the Y720 makes it potentially VR capable. When compared to the 2014 Y50 laptops, which offered good budget performance but were dampened by a disappointing display, Lenovo has included a full IPS display in both devices in the Legion series...
GTA Online Gets New ‘Vehicle Vendetta’ Mode
As GTA Online bids goodbye to the snow, its also the last the day for you to grab the free fireworks rocket launcher simply by signing in. However, there is more to look forward to, as the game will get its new game mode and vehicles. Called Vehicle Vendetta, the new game mode allows you to get a new bike – the Pegassi FCR 1000. Along with this, it features vehicular combat with an arsenal of power ups, including rockets, bombs, guns, vehicle transformations and much more. We’re still trying to figure out whether this brings the game closer to Mario Kart or Transformers (or even Blur, for that matter). I hope it’s Mario Kart. Here’s a list of changes you can expect in the new mode: NEW ADVERSARY MODE: VEHICLE VENDETTA Now you can exercise your pent up road rage wit...
New Galaxy in Tumoil Video Shows The Nak-Thi Map
The fan-made game that was supposed to be Star Wars: Battlefront III has nothing to do with Star Wars today, thanks to legal reasons. Renamed as Galaxy in Turmoil, the game is now set in its own sci-fi universe. The devs have released a video for the game that shows off a new map, called Nak-Thi. As the video shows, Nak-Thi seems to have an interesting back story, mixing the snows of winter with an enormous fiery volcano. This is the first look we’re getting since the game had to ditch the Star Wars universe, and it looks great visually. The game is set to feature both single and multiplayer elements and will have battles with up to 64 players. Galaxy in Turmoil is getting a demo later this year, and is powered by Unreal Engine 4.

Nintendo Switch Might Not Get To See Mass Effect: Andromeda
Last year, EA had teased its Nintendo Switch plans by indicating that it will bring one of its biggest games to the upcoming home-cum-portable console. Much to everyone’s dismay, that game might not be Mass Effect: Andromeda. In an interview with Stevivor, Producer Mike Gamble said that Bioware doesn’t have any plans to bring Andromeda to the Nintendo Switch yet. If the people really want to see it, they will consider it. “Yeah, not right now, no,” he said when asked about Andromeda’s Switch version. “We’re not planning on it. If the Switch launches and everyone’s just yammering for Mass Effect, who knows. We never want to close doors like that.” Earlier, Bioware had released Mass Effect 3 for the Wii U, but supposedly it did not fare w...
Arkane Studios Says Prey Will Be “Flawless” On Launch
Arkane might have failed to deliver with Dishonored 2 on PC, thanks to a lot of performance issues, but if the studio is to be believed, they have learned their lessons and will do a better job with their upcoming game, Prey. “We had a rough launch on the PC. In development you never exactly know what you’re going to see, most of all with PC because there are so many different configurations and stuff. Unfortunately, it’s what it is, it shipped, then it got patched, and now it runs really well. So of course, we are paying double-attention to making sure that this time, the PC version is really flawless when we ship,” Colantonio said in an interview with Game Informer. “There’s a little bit more QA time,” he continued, talking about how Arkane plans...

The year 2016, however good or bad it may have been, is over now, and with its end we turn over a new leaf. Or we think we’ll do anyway (New Year’s resolutions are so overrated).

Watch The Countdown Trailer For Horizon Zero Dawn
Sony has released a countdown trailer for the upcoming game Horizon: Zero Dawn, and it’s hard to say what it accomplishes. The trailer seems more like a way of wishing the new year, as it shows no gameplay at all. It starts off with a merry 2017 celebration, and slowly, eerily transforms to the Horizon: Zero Dawn title screen, with the caption – Earth is ours no more. So, we’ve got about a few hundred new years left? Damn it. You can check out the trailer below: Horizon: Zero Dawn is releasing for the PlayStation 4 on 28th February, 2017.
