(Update) Apparently you can play Fortnite together on PS4 and Xbox One

Sony be damned! [Update:All good things must come to an end, sadly. Asconfirmed by Eurogamer, Epic Games has stated that the cross-network play inFortnitewas simply an error. “We had a configuration issue and it has now been corrected,” is what Epic stated, meaning this issue wasn’t an act of defiance or anything malicious. Thing is, if its as simple as updating code, why wouldn’t Sony just allow the feature? This gating of features mostly makes Sony look like the bad guy and kind of rains on the parade of a lot of gamers....

First, those of you paying attention might note that whileGod Handrecently enjoyed a nigh-universal price cut, the new $19.99 new / $17.99 used sticker price doesn’tquitefit in with BBL’s price standards; indeed, you’re able to’t really label a game likeGod Handas necessarilybargain bin, not yet. But with as many copies as I see going unpurchased on store shelves everywhere, it’s only a matter of time ’til the game becomes especially cheap — until then,God Handis certainly a steal at its current price....

Doom and RAGE are available on Xbox Game Pass today

Experience two different hells ID Software’sRAGEandDoom(2016) will be coming to Xbox Game Pass today. While the announcement says, “Available Now,” the Xbox Live servers may not have updated when you go to check. In any regard, this is a great way to experience both titles if you’re interested in their upcoming sequels. For my money, I wouldn’t really sayRAGEis all that necessary. It doesn’t look like Bethesda is interested in continuing the story from the first and the game doesn’t really do anything all too interesting....
