Arcade1Up Class of '81 Deluxe Pac-Man & Galaga Countercade

$167.16 | In stock on August 23 (Discontinued)

See at Amazon

Arcade1Up's Countercades are great for those who have limited space as well as anyone who doesn't want to drop $500 on a standing home arcade machine. Unfortunately, Arcade1Up seems like it could be done with its series of compact machines. All of the manufacturer's Countercades are discontinued. Until this month, we hadn't seen an Arcade1Up Countercade in stock since last holiday season. So we were surprised to find the Arcade1Up Class of '81 Countercade in stock at Amazon this week.

Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga Countercade

The Class of '81 Countercade is themed around Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga, though it also includes Dig Dug. The cabinet launched last October for $150 and then disappeared before Christmas. It had a peculiarly brief lifecycle, and now it has a fittingly strange restock. The Class of '81 Countercade is sold and shipped by Amazon, but the price is $167.16. It's only $17 above the original MSRP, and the $150 MSRP was surprisingly low to begin with--and contributed to it selling out so fast.

Snag the Arcade1Up Class of '81 Countercade while you can; over on StockX, resellers have it listed for $299. The compact machine is one of only about a dozen Arcade1Up cabinets available on Amazon at the moment.

KPop Demon Hunters' fictional bands have become some of the hottest musical acts on the planet since the Netflix animated film released in June--but before Huntrix and Saja Boys were tearing up the charts, a quartet of League of Legends characters were making waves in virtual K-pop.

Even before KPop Demon Hunters was released, the film's fictional K-pop band was seeing comparisons to Riot Games' virtual girl group, K/DA. It's not a stretch to spot the similarities--two animated girl groups releasing catchy K-pop anthems in between fighting enemies with signature weapons and battle costumes. Even some of the costumes and color schemes feel familiar, and both groups have collaborated with real-world K-pop girl group Twice.

Though it feels likely that the team behind KPop Demon Hunters was inspired by K/DA, it hasn't commented much on the comparison. One of the only official references to K/DA comes from KPop Demon Hunters' music supervisor Ian Eisendrath, who confirms that Riot's virtual band was "one of our many influences" for Huntrix's musical sound. Eisendrath adds that K/DA was just one of "8-12 references" that was mainly used to "envision what these songs could sound like."

If you've been using the jump button a little too often in the Battlefield 6 beta, then you're going to notice some changes upon launch. DICE has announced that there's now a penalty for making consecutive jumps that lowers the jump height. Momentum carried from a slide into a jump has also been tweaked to reduce its speed. Nevertheless, Battlefield 6 principal game designer Florian "DRUNKKZ3" Le Bihan wants players to know that the movement changes "are not drastic."

"Movement is also getting more responsive in general in places that have felt a bit clunky before. so there is a lot more that is getting quality improvements [and] polish in this same area," wrote Le Bihan on X. "Adding diminishing returns to jumping is what we're actually doing, an initial slide or an initial jumps will not be affected. We're still trying to retain depth to movement with some skill curve to it, just making sure it doesn't become insane."

The Battlefield 6 devs also recently defended the changes to Rush mode in the beta, including smaller lobbies of 24 players for 12v12 matches. According to the programing team, Rush mode doesn't work as well with more than 24 players at a time.

Peak version 1.25.a makes a few major changes and a bunch of minor ones. The biggest alteration is that the game is now Steam Deck Verified.

Back in the '90s, several classic fighting games got their own official animated series, including Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. One of the most surprising adaptations was Capcom's cult-classic brawler Darkstalkers. While the Darkstalkers animated series has been hard to come by for decades, distributor Discotek recently revealed that it'ss bringing the entire series to Blu-ray on October 28. If you're looking to add an overlooked piece of Darkstalkers history to your collection, you can preorder Darkstalkers: The Complete Series on Blu-ray now for $32 (was $40) at Amazon. Preorders are also in stock at Crunchyroll for $40.

Darkstalkers: The Complete Series (Blu-ray) $32 (was $40) | Releases October 28

This Blu-ray includes all 13 episodes from the show, presented in 480i standard definition and with an overall run time of 325 minutes. There's not too much included here in terms of bonus materials, but you can check out on-disc extras like a series trailer, the original promotional bumpers and a credits, select commentary tracks, and a video compiling several memes from the show. The cover artwork is also a nod to the video game source material, as it's inspired by the original artwork of the game releases on consoles like Sega Saturn.

Preorder at Amazon Preorder at the Crunchyroll Store Darkstalkers: The Complete Series Special Features

• Series trailer
• Commentary tracks
• Meme compilation video
• Promotional bumpers and credits

Loosely based on the video games, Darkstalkers revolved around the eternal battle between monsters. On the side of evil, the lord of vampires Dimitri, led his forces on a campaign of terror at the behest of his master, the cosmic menace Pyron. Opposing him were various Night Warriors--and their human ally--who were the last line of defense against Pyron and his minions.

Darkstalkers: The Complete OVA Collection $24 (was $30) | Now available

This isn't the only time that Darkstalkers has received an animated adaptation, as a four-episode original video animation series ran from 1997-1998. Animated by Madhouse Studios--who had been on a roll in the '90s with Trigun, Cardcaptor Sakura, and Yu Yu Hakusho--this was a far more faithful adaptation of the games and it was well-received thanks to its high-quality animation.

This Blu-ray was released in 2022, and it it features the OVAs remastered in 1080p and in the original aspect ratio of 1.33:1 full frame. The audio quality is also impressive, as you can watch the anime in Japanese DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, Japanese DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0, and English DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0. There's even a music-only DTS-HD Master Audio option if you want to focus purely on the visuals and soundtrack. For the extras, there's a selection of promotional materials, sequences without the credits text, and art galleries.

Silent Hill 2's excellent remake is discounted to only $30 (was $70) for PS5 at Amazon and Walmart. This limited-time offer matches the lowest price ever for the PS5 and PC survival horror game. PC players can get a Steam key from Fanatical for $37.79.

Silent Hill 2 Physical Edition for PS5 $30 (was $70)

Originally released for PS2 in 2001, Silent Hill 2 is widely regarded as one of the best survival horror games of all time. A remastered version appeared in the Silent Hill HD Collection in 2012, but Bloober Team's 2024 remake is a fully rebuilt, modernized take on the Konami classic. The stunning visual overhaul makes Silent Hill 2's haunting atmosphere all the more terrifying. The reworked soundtrack aptly captures the game's tone, and the voice actor performances elevate the narrative.

Bloober Team's remake is a dark descent into a world with an oppressive atmosphere. Full of surreal nightmares, players not only have to survive the terrors stalking Silent Hill but find answers to the questions that have haunted the protagonist James Sunderland for several years.

Team Cherry's Hollow Knight sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong, is finally releasing on September 4 after years of development and fears from the community that the game may never see the light of day. But Silksong is real, we've played it, and the upcoming launch is looming so large that multiple game studios have delayed their upcoming projects to get out of the way. But why did Silksong take so long to make?

Team Cherry founders Ari Gibson and William Pellen said Silksong was not stuck in development hell or anything like that. The enormous success of the 2017 game--it's sold more than 15 million copies--allowed the Australia-based developers to develop the follow-up at their own pace.

"It was never stuck or anything," Gibson told Bloomberg. "It was always progressing. It's just the case that we're a small team, and games take a lot of time. There wasn't any big controversial moment behind it."
