Source: ED JONES / Getty It’s no secret, trying to cop a PS5 right now is just as hard as copping a pair of Off-White Jordans on SNKRS. Sony is well aware of this issue and is promising more consoles are coming. Today (Nov.25), Sony hopped on Twitter with the promising news that it will be making more consoles available for retailers to get out to customers while thanking gamers for making the PS5’s launch is its “biggest console launch ever.” We haven’t seen any numbers confirming this, nor has Sony explained how it determined that but based on just how scarce the console is and how high the demand is for it, we are inclined to believe that Sony isn’t making wild claims. We want to thank gamers everywhere for making the PS5 launch our biggest console launch ever. Demand for PS5 is unprece...

HHW Gaming Review: ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’ Come For The Campaign, Stay For Mulitiplayer
Source: Treyarch / Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Another year, another Call of Duty game, but is Black Ops Cold War worth you putting down Modern Warfare? That’s the million-dollar question? Choices Matter In This Campaign Source: Treyarch / Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Before we answer that question, let’s focus on Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s story campaign. Like every other Call of Duty game, the campaign plays like a Michael Bay movie but with a better script. In this game’s case, David S.

HHW Gaming Review: ‘NBA 2K21’ Next-Gen Steps Its Game Up Visually, Still Not A Slam Dunk
Source: Visual Concepts/ NBA 2K21 When NBA 2K21 on current-gen systems first arrived in September, it was basically received like the no.1 pick in the NBA draft that doesn’t quite live up to expectations. But it’s clear where the development team at Visual Concepts and 2K were putting all the focus… in the next-gen version of the number 1 basketball video game franchise. Please make no mistake, NBA 2K21 Next-Gen is not its predecessor, specifically when it comes to how it looks and plays on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. When Visual Concepts said they rebuilt the game from the ground up, they were not kidding. NBA 2K21 Next-Gen is a completely new experience in many aspects but does incorporate some of the features introduced in NBA 2K21, first released back in Septembe...

Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz If you weren’t able to secure an Xbox Series X through either preorder or on launch day, chances are high you won’t be able to get one until sometime in 2021. Next year is when Microsoft is hoping it will be able to meet the high demand for its next-gen console, the Xbox Series X. Speaking at the Jefferies Interactive Entertainment Virtual Conference, Xbox chief financial officer Tim Stuart broke the bad news stating: “I think we’ll continue to see supply shortages as we head into the post-holiday quarter, so Microsoft’s Q3, calendar Q1.” The unfortunate news, while very disheartening for those hoping to cop an Xbox Series X for Christmas, should come as a surprise, being that Xbox chief Phil Spencer hinted at a shortage back in Oct...
