  DICE to Bring Back Classes in Battlefield 2042 in Season 3

  Four classes, each with restricted loadouts to return to the franchise.
  
  Among the many shortcomings in Battlefield 2042, one in particular has stood out. No, I'm not talking about the bugs, nor the map design, nor the lack of maps, nor the lack of weapons, nor <insert anything from the laundry list of items here>. I am, of course, talking about the Specialists.
  
  Players have lamented the removal of the Battlefield staple of having distinct classes. With the Specialist...

  New Saints Row is Apparently a Broken Mess

  The reviews are in and critics agree: Yikes!
  
  If you were debating on picking up the new Saints Row game when it comes out on August 23, 2022 you should probably not get it. Just don't buy it. In fact, I'd probably wait maybe a year or so before picking it up. Not only will the game more than likely be out on Steam at that point for you PC users, but it will probably also be a lot less buggy. It will probably also be available for a big discount.
