Given that the host’s inputs do not need to be sent and received to a remote server in order to be processed, they’re often able to respond much more quickly than other players. It’s for this reason that many gamers prefer to play on dedicated servers, though the higher cost of doing so often leads developers to go down the peer-to-peer route instead. Thankfully, some have at least tried to come up with ways to minimize the host’s advantage, as evidenced by a recently-published patent from EA....

Ben was speaking ahead of Battlefield Play4Free, EA’s latest free to play game. Its predecessor, Battlefield Heroes, contained both in game advertising as well as microtransactions. As he put it they “hedged their bets” and focused on creating revenue from multiple streams, a move that in the end created one system which yielded a large return and another which didn’t take off so well. Micro transactions are becoming popular among developers because they encourage players to spend real money in order to access more advanced features....

Before Foles' stellar Week 6 performance in Sunday's 31-20 victory at Tampa Bay, coach Chip Kelly said that if Michael Vick (hamstring) had been healthy enough, he would remain the No. 1.

And Hurts knew it. He said he was displeased with his performance against Dallas and used a fitting metaphor to describe it. “I take responsibility for how this game went tonight," Hurts said to reporters after the game. “I’m going to learn from it. We’re going to be a better team from it. I believe that. I truly believe that. You take you a deuce, you don’t sit there and look at it....

As the Cowboys bus rolled into Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia fans took it upon themselves to welcome the team properly.

Defeating the Demolisher can take a long time considering its health, but there are a few tips that players can use to their advantage. The Demolisher fights in a pattern that, once learned, can help players kill the zombie.

Despite not having even been released as of yet, Techland has already promised fans that Dying Light 2 will receive five years’ worth of support post-launch. This will come as a comfort for gamers who will have waited over seven years for the follow-up to Dying Light. Moreover, this announcement may come as a surprise to gamers, who have become used to the support of video games ending far too soon....

That was probably asking too much of a player making his season debut with exactly zero practice time since ending a prolonged contract impasse with Toronto just last weekend. The rest of Babcock’s team, which eventually showed signs life after a poor opening 40 minutes, didn’t really have an excuse. Dylan Larkin scored at 2:48 of overtime and the Detroit Red Wings survived a blown three-goal lead in the third period to beat the Maple Leafs 5-4 and snap Toronto’s five-game winning streak....

For example, battery life improved from a maximum of 30 minutes with the V7 to over 60 minutes with the V11, and then a swappable battery was introduced, to double its cleaning time. And, although you could get a choice of add-ons and accessories, like the Animal editions that come with cleaning tools optimised for homes with pets, all the vacs were designed to do the same job in the same way....

Players that have ruled their interstellar sectors on EVE with an iron fist on the PC will be able to team up with ground units on the PS3, creating a unique cross-platform blend that has never been tried before, let alone accomplished. Hilmar Veigar Pétursson, CEO of CCP had this to say:...

X-COM has been overhauled immensely for its next generation debut. Instead of a tactical strategy series that takes place in the late 1990s, XCOM is now a first person shooter - set in post-WW2 1950s suburbia. While some die-hard fans of the cult-favorite series may find the new XCOM hard to accept - given the high-profile pedigree of developer 2K Marin, there is reason to hope the new installment will, not only breathe new life into the franchise, but also manage to serve as a worthy installment in the series....

[HTML1] During Microsoft’s E3 2015 press conference today, they set aside a few minutes to showcase a few games coming out via their ID@Xbox service.

It starts with Battlefield 4, which EA officially confirmed is headed to both the PS4 and the Xbox One. Gamers that want an idea of what Battlefield will look like in the next-gen should look no further than the 17-minute gameplay video that EA released in March....

But if any PlayStation 4 fans were hoping to one day see Titanfall come to their consoles, even if it was long after Microsoft had made the most of the game, that ended today as publisher EA confirmed that the multiplayer shooter would never - ever - be coming to the PS4.
