Weird West Review
In this alternate universe, the West was won by trying a bunch of ideas so crazy they just might work… and if they don’t, hitting the quick-load button to revert to an earlier save and trying something even crazier until you pull it off. Thanks to that freedom to experiment with its world as you explore, Weird West is one of those games that feels like a stealth and combat playground even as it tells five mostly serious, well-written stories with interesting decisions throughout and a thoughtful conclusion. And with so much ground to cover and replayability to investigate, it’s well worth putting up with some quirks and underwhelming loot. What ties Weird West’s plot together is a group of shadowy figures using a magical brand to force your character’s consciousness into the bodies of various unsuspecting people. It’s a clever play on the way so many games have us take control of a character who already exists in that world but still need to bring us up to speed on their identity: h...
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader – How Did it Take This Long to Get a Warhammer CRPG?
It’s truly bizarre that across the nearly 30 years of Warhammer video games, we haven’t had a single one that attempted to channel the tabletop Warhammer experience by utilizing the genre that feels best suited to do so: CRPGs. But that’s all about to change, as Pathfinder developer Owlcats has been cooking up something to fill this void. During an extensive hands-off demo of Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader, I checked out its extremely chunky turn-based combat system, drowned in its plethora of dialogue options and social skill checks, and nodded approvingly at its lovingly faithful depiction of Warhammer’s morbid universe. While it’s still very early, so far this CRPG is shaping up to be everything I’ve wanted from a Warhammer video game. If you’ve ever played (or even glanced at) a game of Warhammer 40K, then you probably know it’s designed for a hyper-specific kind of nerd who loves calculations, large-scale drama, and an incredibly detailed world one could easily get lost in.

Pringles' latest flavor is based on the Moa Burger from the planet Reach. If you aren't familiar with that particular planet or flavor, it may be because it is based on a flightless bird/delicacy from 2010's Halo: Reach. Halo's Twitter account announced the surprising collaboration with Pringles, revealing that Moa Burger is a limited-edition flavor that is now being sold exclusively at Walmart.
Not only do Moa appear in Halo: Reach, there is also an in-game advertisement for the Moa Burger that those on Reach were able to enjoy. Furthermore, players who kill seven Moa in Halo: Reach's Winter Contingency mission can earn the Keep It Clean achievement. While the timing of this new flavor may be a little strange, its important to remember that Halo: Infinite would already have been released had it not been delayed past is Holiday 2020 release window. A delay does more than just upset those who really wish to play a game, but it also impacts marketing schedules that are planned months or years in advance. We've already seen such other examples in the wild as Halo Infinite Monster Energy cans that give 2XP bonuses to a game that is still in development. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/23/halo-infinite-step-inside-cinematic-teaser"] While these Pringles cans don't appear to include any special codes, they may hint that Moa will be one of the many wildlife that players will be able to encounter in the open-world of Halo Infinite when it is released in Fall 2021.
