Fight to the Death with Anarchy Reigns

By Ryan Fleming March 4, 2011

Described by developers Platinum Games, Anarchy Reigns is an “online action combat game”. But not content to just have players fight against each other or against computer controlled enemies, to up the stakes, you will have to contend with little things, like giant saw blades and carpet bombing. Just to keep it spicy.

So far six characters have been revealed, and more are likely due in the coming months. No word on what characters might still be on the way, but if/when it is announced, dibs on the tsunami!

Anarchy Reigns does not yet have a firm release date, but look for it on PS3 and Xbox 360 sometime in either Q3 or Q4 of this year.

The best weapons in BattleBit Remastered

If you judge BattleBit Remastered based on its graphical style alone, you might assume there's little to no depth in this shooter. That couldn't be further from the truth. While it may look like a game from the early days of 3D graphics, the gunplay and mechanics are as modern as the latest Battlefield or Call of Duty entry. With that comes a massive roster of weapons across various types, each with its own stats and uses.

Despite the game still technically being in early access, nearly 40 weapons are available to unlock and take into the field. Even the most dedicated players will find that number intimidating when trying to nail down which one is best, so we've thrown ourselves into the trenches of BattleBit Remastered to figure out which weapons you should take out on your next mission.

The best free-to-play games for 2023

The best free games offer players a lot of content without charging anything, or at least allow you to experience the game without feeling the need to purchase anything. We've rounded up the best free-to-play games that hold true to that, including free FPS games and MMORPGs. With everything from fast-paced shooters like Apex Legends to open-world JRPGs like Genshin Impact, there's something for everyone.

Although the free-to-play group gets a bad rap, there are plenty of games that offer dozens (and even hundreds) of hours of gameplay without asking for a dime.

How Splatfests work in Splatoon 3

Splatoon 3 is largely a massive upgrade from the previous titles, but most of the changes are additive rather than overhauls or complete reinventions. The core game is still all about covering the ground in your team's ink, with other objective modes added in to spice up the multiplayer fun. Splatoon 2 added in the Salmon Run hoard mode-style game type, which is now a permanent fixture in Splatoon 3, but what players have always loved since the first game are the Splatfests.

These special events allow everyone to participate in fun, friendly competitions to debate (using ink, of course) a topic. These have been tough choices in the past, such as whether dogs or cats are better or pancakes versus waffles, but Splatoon 3 adds a lot of new wrinkles that make these limited-time events even more fun. The most obvious change is that there are now three choices for each Splatfest, but the differences don't end there. Here's how Splatfests work in Splatoon 3.
