PlayStation is Killing Physical Game Discs

  • Giant's Shadow - Battlefield 1 Patch Notes for December 13

    Giant's Shadow - Battlefield 1 Patch Notes for December 13

    The patch notes for tomorrow's (December 13) update for Battlefield 1 were released earlier than normal. Typically, we're sitting here waiting for the patch notes to drop hours after the actual update is out. Not so for this one!

    This is the "Giant's Shadow" update. A new map arrives that places you in the Battle of Selle on a cold autumn day in 1918. Of course, despite this map pack being free, those with Premium will still get it early (tomorrow), while the rest have to wait until December 20.

    This update will include some non-time gated content too. This includes a Spectator Mode, a new game setting that gives everyone a bolt-action rifle (yay, historical accuracy), and plenty of changes and balancing for classes, vehicles, maps, and more. It has a Model 10-A nerf (how this wasn't done before is a mystery). It has a fix for 'some' DirectX 11 hanging issues. It's got a little bit of everything!...

    It looks like Battlefield fans will have to be content with what is available to them for the next couple of years. EA said that they will not release another entry in the franchise for at least a "couple of years." EA CFO, Blake Jorgensen, confirmed this while speaking at the NASDAQ 35th Investor Program. He said that EA "won't have another Battlefield back for a couple of years. Next year we'll have Battlefront, the Star Wars game." Right now, the only major plans for ...

    Battlefield 1 Twitter Pulls Tasteless #justWWIthings Campaign

    This past weekend, the Battlefield 1 Twitter account sent out a number of controversial Tweets under the hashtag of #justWWIthings. A couple of examples can be seen above and below.

    Given the rather somber tone of most of the game's single player, a fact that has been praised in numerous reviews, it comes off as a bit tasteless to go with this sort of Twitter campaign. It took a bit of time, but the Battlefield Twitter account did eventually pull the Tweets. An apology ...

    Squad "Mutiny" Feature Coming Back to Battlefield 1

    One thing that Battlefield 1 seems to lack are squad leaders that actually lead the squad. How often have you sat and requested orders from your leader only to receive none? It's probably a lot.

    Fortunately, DICE is aware that people want the mutiny feature back. A DICE developer posting on Reddit said that the feature from Battlefield 4 will be making a return very soon.
    Heya, this is one of the most requested features. It will be fixed in one of the upcoming patches.

  • How Many Games Did You Complete in 2025?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Make up your own definition of "complete."

    Was 2025 a big year for game completions for you, or were you more of a "stick to one never-ending, live-service game for the entire year" sort of player?

    For this, you can take whatever definition you want as a game "completion." Beat the main story? Earned 100% of the game's achievements? Or simply played enough that you're satisfied with what you accomplished and have no plans to return any time...
    I did not complete any game in 2025
