Elden Ring Berserk Tribute Location: Where to Find the Miura Memorial
Elden Ring, with a story written by George R.R. Martin, has taken inspiration from other hit series’, be it with weapon design, armor, and more. One of the most popular anime and manga series of all time, Berserk, has been shown some love with this game, taking the inspiration for the newly remodeled Greatsword and modeling after the main character, Guts’ sword.
However, the creator of Beserk, Kentaro Miura passed away at the age of 54 last year due to a complication with acute aortic dissection.
GTA Online Heists Causing Server Issues, Many Can’t Connect
UPDATE 2: Problems seem to be resurfacing at this time. Most reports are coming from PS4 owners.
UPDATE: The issues seem to have cleared up for most players at this time.
Many sources are reporting that the servers for GTA Online are either down or experiencing issues as heavy traffic floods in to try out the new GTA Online Heists. It seems that the excitement for the newly added mode was a bit too much for Rockstar to handle, most likely due to the many delays that pushed GTA Online Heists into it’s current 2015 launch.

Need More Iron Nuggets in Animal Crossing: New Horizons? Stop Breaking Rocks!
Many games bog players down with lengthy and exhaustive tutorials, explaing every single facet of the game in extreme detail before the player even gets a chance to explore. Animal Crossing: New Horizons is not this type of game. It very much goes for a “show, don’t tell” approach, despite how much text and dialogue is actually built into the title.
The consequences of this are clear though as players around the world jump into their first adventure in the series, often finding themselves confused about various things.
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 Review
Tetris will always be the king of the puzzle video game genre, but the Puyo Puyo series took elements of both it and other games like Dr. Mario to create a very successful franchise in of itself. For the most part, Puyo Puyo remained a Japanese exclusive franchise, including with the initial release of the crossover Puyo Puyo Tetris back in 2014. This game was localized a few years later for the Nintendo Switch and PS4 in the West, which has now led to the sequel releasing nearly simultaneously around the world as Puyo Puyo Tetris 2.
The Ratchet and Clank Movie Has Some ‘Rude Humor’
Even though the Ratchet and Clank movie is aimed for kids, there will be some humor that adults might enjoy too. As reported by BoxOfficeMojo, Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) has rated Ratchet and Clank as PG. It has “action and some rude rumor“. Ratchet and Clank made its debut back in 2002. Kids that played the game back in the PS2 days have now grown up. It sounds like the movie will be catering to audiences of all ages, even though it will be primarily aimed at kids.
Call of Duty:Black Ops Day One Sales Gross Over $360 Million
Call of Duty: Black Ops, in its short life, has lived up to the hype commercially. It is being reported that Activision sold a mind blowing 5.6 million copies of the FPS in just the first day of sales.
This makes sense considering that it displayed on my Xbox 360 last night that almost 3.5 million players were online and playing the newly released game. And aside from not being able to play with friends on Xbox 360, stuttering and stammering issues on the PC, and general deabauchery on the PS3, it appears that the consumer did just as well as the publisher in what is now the “biggest entertainment launch in history”.
Destiny 2: What is the Medal Case?
With Guardian Games coming back in Destiny 2, various new features jumped into the game as well, and the Medal Case is one of those respectively. A kind of controversial topic, since it has players all over the place confused as to what it is exactly. Let me start this article in reverse, by saying what it is not. It’s not a quest, as many believe. The Medal Case can best be described as a mechanic, that lets you store your precious new resources (Medals and Laurels), in order to claim the event’s rewards.
