PopCap is framing this follow-up as “bigger” and “badder” – and as the series returns to the third-person shooter realm, nearly half of the classes are new, meaning that you’ll have to train up with a significant set of new tactics. The biggest news, however, is that... See the rest of the story on Xbox Wire

But what would Risk of Rain be without playing with friends? Now you can play on the couch, and on the...
Sackboy and Sackgirl have always been rather emotive with a quick tap of one of the directional buttons, but this brand new range of costumes will allow them to express their emotions at a whole new level.
Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger, and Disgust are all available — or you can even become an imaginary friend for one of your Sackfriends by wearing the oh-so-colorful Bing Bong Costume. Each costume is available individually or can be purchased together as a bundle in the Inside Out Costume Pack.
Monsters, Inc. and The Good Dinosaur

That’s where the world stands at the time of Far Cry Primal, which takes place 12,000 years ago in Mesolithic Central Europe. The biggest thing holding man back isn’t his fellow man – not quite yet, anyway. Oh, sure, there’s more than enough to fear from human tribes in the land of Oros,...
