You’ll need Valor Points WoW Dragonflighthas reached the Mythic+ stage, and at this point folks are working toward their ideal endgame build: putting reps into the semi-recent raid and Mythic+ dungeons. Here’s how to upgrade your Mythic+ gear along the way. How to earn Valor Points and upgrade Mythic+ gear Valor, quite simply, is earned via running Mythic+ dungeons. Finishing each run will gift you 135 points, but you’ll also get a bonus of roughly half that (65) if someone ranks up via that Mythic+ run....

Huey Lewis is already inRock Bandwith his “The Power of Love,” but a few more of The News’ hits are being added to the Rock Band music store this week. They’re priced at $5.49 for the 3-song pack, or $1.99 a song. All of the new Huey additions toRock Bandare great songs to sing to. “The Heart of Rock and Roll” starts with that kick drum heart beat and goes into that goofy driving beat and lyrics that never quite make sense....

Another expansion is on the way In case you haven’t heard about it yet somehow,Path of Exileis an actually free-to-play dungeon crawler in the same vein asDiablo II: extensive skill paths and all. Grinding Gear Games has done what very few penny-pinching, game-impacting microtransaction-filled, gacha-ridden free-to-play games have to date with its monetization system, as every bit of actual content, including huge expansions (which they’ve had many of) is free....

While we combatthe Lyle’s of other universes and timelines, here’s what’s been happening in video games: The PC gaming space has almost always been dominated by Steam. However, over the past couple of years, practically every publisher under the sun has attempted to create their own launcher or “service” of some kind to get in on the action. From Uplay to Origin, GOG Galaxy and Battle.net — I’ve tried them all....

Not the SNES release, obviously Hamster is offering retro gaming fans the chance to step into the ring with some of the world’s greatest – and weirdest – pugilists, as classic coin-opSuper Punch-Out!!returns for Nintendo Switch. First up, this isnotthe excellent 1994 SNES release, but the original 1984 arcade game of the same name, that was renown for its unique double-monitor cabinet. While not quite as slick as Nintendo’s release a decade later, the originalSuper Punch-Out!...

The Wii is running on fumes, make no mistake about it, but at least there are a few bright spots remaining. One such spot wasLu-Mulana, a beefed-up version of afreeware platformerthat offered plenty of challenge and exploration. I had casually dabbled in the original, but it was enough to place the remake in my “most wanted Wii games of 2012” list. After numerous delays, Nicalisfinally announcedthat it would no longer be publishingLa-Mulanain North America or Europe....

Flaming bees! Finally! I’ve learned the identity ofthose flaming beesI mentioned a while back. They’re a cybernetic mod. Call of Duty: Black Ops IIImight not be getting the crazy Exo-Suit gameplay fromAdvanced Warfare, but it will feature lots of futuristic weaponry. This helpful video goes through some of the new cybernetic abilities, like the power to make people vomit, swarm them with nano bees, or shock them into oblivion. I’m digging everything I’ve seen so far and I hope the zombies mode holds up....

While exploring the Pine Heights biome for the first time, you’ll eventually stumble across an “ancient megastructure” with no clear purpose. But there’s a way to find out. You need to find and gather all the Artifacts in Pine Heights, which awards in world lore behindLightyear Frontier. There are nine Artifacts to gather in the Pine Heights biome ofLightyear Frontier, and they’re all hidden near the structure. You can gather them by destroying ‘Strange Rocks’ that emit a soft, purple glow....

I’m meltiiiiiiiiiiing! If that doesn’t mean anything to you, then you probably never played the original Majesty or its sequel. Which is a shame, because it’s the only hands-off high fantasy parody RTS out there. In a nutshell, you build a fantasy kingdom base and set bounties for your heroes to attack or defend stuff. It also has a lot of humor, ridiculous voice acting and some of the greatest quotable unit feedback sinceAge of Empire‘s “Wololo”....

Platforming in VR feels refreshing I know, I know: you’re probably a member of a good portion of our audience who just isn’t into VR. That’s fine, I get it. But if you’re a platforming purist and can somehow get your hands on a PSVR to test outAstro Bot: Rescue Missionwhen it’s released later this year, you won’t be disappointed. I’ve been digging into VR platformers since day one of the Oculus Rift, which launched with several, most notably the high profileLucky’s Tale....

30 Platinum Points This is such a little thing, but I’m happy it exists. Nintendo’s mostly deflated My Nintendo program hasn’t had anything of real value shortly after its two big launch bonuses hit, but occasionally there’s something cool that pops in. Collectors are probably annoyed that they can’t really snag a physical edition of the newSplatoon 2 Octo Expansion, but Nintendo has provided an alternate piece of box art through the aforementioned service....

The ‘B’ means Bucks TheNBA 2Kfranchise is almost twenty years old, believe it or not, but last year’s entryNBA 2K18 must’ve been something pretty special, as publishers 2K have announced that it is the best-selling entry in the entire series. The basketball sim has passed the 10 million sales mark, which also takes the franchise’ lifetime sales past 80 million copies. That’s a lot of slam dunks. This is a continuing trend as well, asNBA 2Kentries have seen year-on-year increases in sales over the past five years....
