  • Upgrade de Pokémon Scarlet & Violet é massivo e deixa-nos otimistas para Legends Z-A

    3 weeks ago | pt.ign.com | Casey DeFreitas

    O lançamento da Nintendo Switch 2 está iminente e com ele, chegam atualizações gratuitas para mais de dez jogos já existentes na biblioteca da Switch original. Dois desses jogos são Pokémon Scarlet e Pokémon Violet, bastante criticados pelo seu desempenho relativamente fraco na primeira híbrida da Nintendo. Tive a oportunidade de jogar a versão atualizada de Pokémon Scarlet na Nintendo Switch 2 durante trinta minutos e as melhorias são evidentes.

    2 months ago | ign.com | Casey DeFreitas

    Universal Epic Universe’s immersive design around the park is impressive, but the queue line for the Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry ride might just take the cake. It took me about 1,300 steps to get from ride entrance, to ride boarding area–which is about half a mile–and the entirety of the on-foot journey surrounds you with intricate designs, thoughtful details, and massive set pieces.
