  MX vs ATV All Out Anniversary Edition Out March 12

  
  It's been one year since the release of MX vs ATV All Out from THQ Nordic and Rainbow Studios. While most teams typically don't really do much for the one year anniversary of their game, Rainbow Studios decided they didn't want to be like normal studios.
  
  Instead, they are releasing a special Anniversary Edition of their game that includes the base game and all of the "most popular" DLC. It will be released on March 12, 2019 for $29.99 (USD). If you were expecting to...

  Today, we are going to be reviewing something a little bit outside of the usual. Usually, we typically just review video games or even the occasional piece of hardware for TGN, but a review for glasses? Well, it's certainly a new one for us.
  
  These are not any old pair of glasses though. These are the Ultralite DT from Eagle Eyes. What sets them apart from other glasses is the promise that they will protect your eyes...

  Crackdown 3 on PC Locked to 30FPS in Co-op

  
  If you plan on playing through Crackdown 3 in co-op, it may be worth knowing that the game will be locked to 30FPS. Yes, even on PC.
  
  To be fair to the Xbox One versions of the game, it's capped at 30FPS as it is, even when playing alone. However, the PC version has the ability to play with much higher framerates, including uncapped if you so desire. That is, unless you're playing co-op on the PC.
  
  A number of Reddit users have found out that the 30FPS cap comes into...

  Critical Consensus: Crackdown 3, Far Cry New Dawn, Jump Force, and Metro Exodus

  
  Tomorrow is a massive release day for games. For some reason, publishers and developers decided that people who play video games would need a lot of joy in their lives come February 15. I simply cannot fathom why.
  
  Needless to say, there are four major titles being released tomorrow and the reviews for all of them are now in. Well, almost all of them. Though Anthem is also coming out tomorrow, it is only being released for those that have EA Access, Origin Access, or Origin Access...

  God of War Won the 22nd Annual DICE Awards

  
  The headline reads that God of War won all of the 22nd annual DICE awards as if they took home every award at the show. Well, the game and the team at Sony Santa Monica kind of, almost did precisely that.
