Let’s All Be Happy This AAA Minesweeper Game Isn’t Real
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/lets-all-be-happy-this-aaa-minesweeper-game-isnt-real/
Minesweeper (https://www.gamespot.com/games/minesweeper/) has been around for decades and it's probably overdue for some modern flourishes. Now there's a Triple-A Minesweeper parody that offers a hilarious look at what a Minesweeper update might look like.
The Triple-A Minesweeper was created by writer and programmer Mike Lacher, and it's fully playable as a browser game on his site (https://minesweeper.mikelacher.com/). Aside from the intentionally pretentious title cards touting the involvement of Unreal Engine, Nvidia, Bink Video, and Wwise, Triple A Minesweeper looks and plays almost exactly like the regular Minesweeper.
However, the best way to enjoy this parody is by simply not doing anything at all. The main character, "Sweeper," will sit around and repeat things like, "I gotta sweep these mines," while receiving calls from newly created characters in the game. Lacher seems to have taken his inspiration from Grand Theft Auto 5, Metal Gear Solid, and even Cyberpunk 2077.
Among the callers are Nora, a potential love interest for Sweeper. Additionally, an underworld figure called The Don repeatedly calls for Sweeper to head down to his club while hinting at the latter's sinister past in Singapore. Meanwhile, the chipper DJ Dan celebrates Sweeper's efforts on behalf of New Dawn City.
In another amusing touch, Sweeper never acknowledges any of the other characters and keeps repeating the same lines over and over. It is possible to complete the game, which triggers a twist ending that probably wasn't that difficult to predict.
Although Lacher leaves the parody on that note, it would have been even funnier if the game's coda mentioned that Triple-A Minesweeper flopped and cost Microsoft hundreds of millions of dollars.
Microsoft hasn't done too much with Minesweeper in the past few years, although it was added to Microsoft Teams (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/solitaire-minesweeper-and-more-now-playable-inside-microsoft-teams/1100-6509206/) as a playable game. The company has also previously created a Minesweeper-themed ugly Christmas sweater (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/microsofts-ugly-holiday-sweater-is-minesweeper-themed/1100-6498430/).

These Are Easily The Most Unique Fortnite Skins
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/these-are-easily-the-most-unique-fortnite-skins/
There are a lot of Fortnite (https://www.gamespot.com/games/fortnite/) skins that look cool or have an interesting gimmick, but there are very few that have any kind of feature that's truly unique, something you genuinely cannot get from any of the dozens of skins sitting in the item shop each day.
For example, there are dozens of skins that make a noise or trigger a visual effect when you get a kill, but there's only one skin which has a human hand in place of its head, and whose hand-head snaps its fingers after a kill. That's the level of unique we're talking about here--features that are only available on a single skin or set of skins. Let's dive in.

I Gave Up My The Witcher 3 Run To Play Dressmaker, And My Life Is Better For It
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/i-gave-up-my-the-witcher-3-run-to-play-dressmaker-and-my-life-is-better-for-it/
If you walked into my room at any time (please don’t), chances are you’ll find me playing more adult games. No, not talking about those—I mean specifically Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto VI, Cyberpunk 2077, or The Blood of Dawnwalker. Perhaps I’ll be enjoying Kingdom Hearts or a dash of Pokémon, but in reality, most of the time it’ll be more mature experiences. However, I’ve recently stopped my first proper The Witcher 3 (https://www.gamespot.com/games/the-witcher-3-wild-hunt/) playthrough almost instantly in favor of Dressmaker. And you could join me too, thanks to a tasty discount.
Nothing satisfies me more than a well-placed slice that cuts down a monster or taking on side quests to uncover a story off the beaten path. However, I’ve found that I’m equally satisfied by a little bit of hard work. Dressmaker isn’t just about making dresses—it’s about each decision impacting the final product, working toward your client’s requests in a professional, respectful manner.
I’m not typically playing the best cozy games (https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/best-cozy-games/2900-7055/). Sure, some experiences like Stardew Valley and, well, Dreamlight Valley (I like valley games, apparently) will scratch that part of my brain. Dressmaker, fortunately, is one of those cases where it does. Every element, from concept to the finished product, feels as important as the one before, culminating in a finished piece that feels rewarding to see completed.
Personally, I’ve always been quite a creative person. It’s why games that, even with more violence, capture my interest: I’m able to customize my experience further. Dressmaker takes that aspect (without the ultra-violence, of course) and puts it at the focal point of the experience. Every element of the dress, from colors to cuts to fabric, can be chosen by you. That makes every single dress you make—and you’ll make a lot—as special as the last.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZKhzajdu58
You don’t have to make each dress formulaic, either. You can decide to turn various video game characters into dresses for a bit of a theme in your shop, or you could potentially specialize in a certain selection of colors of your choosing. The concept is simple, but the pure enjoyment you can get from it isn’t.
Despite the game taking the world by storm, you can actually grab Dressmaker at a discount with Fanatical (https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=118821&awinaffid=2873961&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fanatical.com%2Fen%2Fgame%2Fdressmaker), dropping it down to just $12.74 / £11.56 when using the code "FANATICAL15" in your cart. That means you’ll save 15% off the listed price, making it cheaper than Steam and giving you the dressmaking shop of your dreams at a lower price.
Now, if you don’t mind me, I’m going to make a dress that’s perfect for Geralt. It’s the least I can do since I’m ignoring him now.

Marvel Darkhold Destiny Is Magic: The Gathering’s First Universes Beyond Set Of 2027
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/marvel-darkhold-destiny-is-magic-the-gatherings-first-universes-beyond-set-of-2027/
Today at New York Comic Con, Wizards of the Coast announced the first 2027 Universes Beyond expansion set for Magic: The Gathering. Marvel’s Darkhold Destiny will pit Doctor Strange, Thor, Ghost Rider, and more against cosmic villains like Hela and Dormammu in 2027.
The set will include normal and Collector booster packs, and four pre-constructed commander decks themed around Marvel heroes and villains, including the Midnight Sons. Multiple cards were shown during the hour-long panel, including Magic, who transforms into Darkchild, Gargantos, and the titular Darkhold.
Darkhold Destiny tells an original story co-created by designers at Marvel and Wizards of the Coast. Along with that story, a brand-new character created for this set will be introduced in a Marvel Infinity comic series starting in February.
Ayida

Exclusivity: Unknown, no level-up pack has ever returned
There's only one Fortnite skin that looks like it was pulled from the pages of a monochromatic manga, and it's Ayida--one of those old level-up packs from all the way back in Chapter 3.
Beavis and Butt-head

Exclusivity: none, can return any time
Both of these skins do their iconic chuckle when you get a kill while wearing it, but they're unique because they also chuckle at each other's kills. So if you're running a Beavis and Butt-Head duo, they'll both laugh every time either of them gets a kill.

I figured I oughtta start with this one since I mentioned it in the opening--this fella's head-hand snaps its fingers whenever you get a kill.

Arc Raiders Empathetic Prototypes Quest Guide
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/arc-raiders-empathetic-prototypes-quest-guide/
Arc Raiders (https://www.gamespot.com/games/arc-raiders/) has plenty of quests with strange or out-of-the-way solutions, but few put you in the position to pull off a Mission Impossible-style feat like Empathetic Prototypes. In this quest, you can use your awesome grappling hook skills to wrap up your task. Here's everything you need to know about completing Empathetic Prototypes in Arc Raiders.

We'd recommend you bring an augment with a safe pocket on this quest, as you'll need to extract with a specific item you'll obtain. Choosing to go through the quest without a safe pocket could result in having to redo the entire quest if you die before extracting.
More importantly, you'll want to bring a Grappling Hook with you. It's a good idea to store it in your safe pocket until you need it, as you can only buy a limited amount of these in any given week.
Reach the Trench Towers in the Spaceport Trench
When you're ready to get started, head to the Trench Towers in the northern area of Spaceport.
