Tesla comes with a video games hub that is built into their center screen. The infotainment screen of Tesla does not just allow you to play video games, but it also provides plenty of other features. Pulling down on the tab presents many icons and features and one of them is the arcade mode. The arcade cabin launches video games on the Tesla.
With their most recent update, they have pulled the arcade option to the main menu bar. Entering the arcade offers you a full list of titles that the car supports. When you launch a game, you get a warning screen. This warning screen explains that things could go bad when playing video games in the Tesla. There are plenty of risks that come with playing video games in the Tesla.
Dangers of Distracted Driving
Tesla’s decision to allow car owners to access video games while the car is in motion is appalling to many concerned people. The feature of having a giant screen in the center of the dashboard can be deemed dangerous in itself.

One of the most exciting and inspiring trends in the past decade is eSports, which is closely tied in with the video game industry.

All these things strongly suggest that eSports will only continue to go up from here, and this article highlights the top eSports trends that you should look out for.
Competitive Console Gaming
When it comes to competitive gaming, your mind might instantly go to PC gaming. However, the past few years have proved that console gaming is also coming up to speed. This has become possible thanks to new gaming consoles like the PlayStation 4 and 5, as well as the Xbox Series X. These consoles feature next-gen and advanced hardware that are leaps and bounds over previous consoles. Thanks to their streaming and Wi-Fi capabilities, console gamers have also jumped

In the past year or two, non-fungible tokens or NFTs have become all the hype, and they have become significant in the world of gaming as well. Simply put, an NFT is a data unit that you store on a blockchain, and it can be attributed to any digital asset, such as a picture, sound file, video, or even a video game. They have allowed many people to buy and own valuable digital assets, such as tweets, memes, games, and much more.
Basically, NFT games offer players the chance to customize their character or appearance through a wide range of skins, accessories, and much more, and they also offer them the opportunity to earn money. While we are on the topic, let’s have a look at the best NFT games of 2021.
Axie Infinity
Axie Infinity is one of the most popular NFT games out there, and it takes its inspiration from the Pokemon game franchise. Plus, the game has its own blockchain embedded inside the engine, which makes it more exciting. The game is based on Ethereum and

A brand new patch for Bloodborne has been pushed out to the PlayStation 4 servers, and any players who connect online will have to download the patch before being able to play again. The update, named patch 1.04, brings a number of bug fixes, as well as some gameplay changes to Bloodborne.
Patch 1.04 has been in development for quite some time now so the patch consists of quite a lot of different features. The entire patch clocks in at just under 300MB so whilst it won't take forever to install, it certainly is quite a beefy patch.
Among some of the changes, players can now store up to 600 quicksilver bullets and blood vials in the storage in Hunter's Dream. Before patch 1.04 the limit was just 99. I think this feature is one of the most convenient for players, although more has been done to Bloodborne in patch 1.04.
Some weapons and hunter tools have had buffs applied to them. Unfortunately From Software hasn't gone into too much detail about these buffs and what they

The first Battlefield Hardline DLC has now been announced by Visceral Games and some of the content we can expect to find in the expansion has been detailed.
The first Battlefield Hardline DLC has been called Criminal Activity. As expected, Criminal Activity will come with four new maps. The expansion may include other content as well but at this point in time it has not be announced by Visceral Games or EA.
Two of the new Battlefield Hardline maps will be set at night, whilst the other two will be set at day. All four maps will be set in Florida and California so we can expect to be fighting in an urban environment. Personally I think urban maps are the best settings for Hardline, so it's great to see we’ll be getting some more city action soon.
Unfortunately no solid release date for Criminal Activity has yet been revealed. We do know that the next DLC pack for Battlefield Hardline, which is scheduled for release after Criminal Activity will be launching in the summer

Bandai Namco has finally announced that Yoshimitsu will be returning to the franchise in Tekken 7. With Yoshimitsu being one of my favorite fighting characters of all time, I was pretty excited to hear the news, but Bandai Namco has done something a little... strange with him.
If you look back to previous Tekken games, you'll notice that Yoshimitsu never really has one appearance style. He'll always have drastically different costumes in each game. For those who don't keep an eye on the series it's easy to lose track of what Yoshimitsu actually looks like.
The latest rendition of Yoshimitsu for Tekken 7 is beyond a shadow of a doubt the weirdest we've ever seen him before. Yoshimitsu now has a number of tentacles branching off of his face.
Yes, that's right. We've been tricked. Yoshimitsu has been a space squid on legs all this time. Whilst you may not personally like the new Yoshimitsu looks it's important to note that there are bound to be plenty of costume options

Battlefield 4 has already had a season pass but DICE aren't quite done with developing content for the game just yet. However, instead of charging players extra on top of all the other additional DLC costs already tied onto Battlefield 4, DICE has made the noble choice to release all of the future DLC content for free.
Whilst previous DLC will still cost players the same it does today, any new content created by DICE and released for Battlefield 4 from this day forwards will be absolutely free to all players.
So far there are a lot of details that haven't been shared by DICE, but we do know that they are working on some new maps, including night time maps. The night maps should be variants of previously released maps. So far we already know that Siege of Shanghai, Zavod 311, and Golmud Railway will be receiving nighttime variants. A new community-made map is also in the works and should be released for free in the not too distant future.
A new patch is planned for this

A successor to the ever popular Banjo Kazooie franchise hit Kickstarter and it blew up the internet.
We've all been wanting a new (decent) Banjo Kazooie game for years but it seems that Rare either has no interest or they've been too busy on other projects such as Kinect Sports Rivals. Thankfully a team of ex-Rare employees has banded together to make a development company called Playtonic Games and they are set to bring life to Banjo Kazooie again.
Playtonic Games recently posted up a Kickstarter page for their upcoming game. Named Yooka-Laylee, the game will feature the same 3D buddy-duo platformer experience that made Banjo Kazooie so popular. Yooka-Laylee will be filled with all sorts of collectibles for players to find in the world. This time round, collectibles will play a meaningful part in the way new areas of the world are opened up.
The audio and art team working on Playtonic Games are also going for a very Banjo Kazooie-esque theme and the main environment

With all of the most recent fighting game releases, it would only be fitting to have a new SoulCalibur game somewhere along the way too. Surprisingly, this might actually happen. The development wing at Bandai Namco responsible for the SoulCalibur series has just posted something on their social media pages, suggesting that a new SoulCalibur game could be coming.
On their Facebook page, the SoulCalibur developers posted a poll that asked fans about their favorite characters in the game franchise. Fans were only allowed one vote and the post stated that it would be used to help "Determine precisely who are the favorite characters of the community." The post then went on to say, "Project Soul is probably preparing something huge... Stay tuned and spread the news!"
Whilst this doesn't directly confirm that a new SoulCalibur game is in the works, they did mention that this had nothing to do SoulCalibur Lost Swords but was designed for the SoulCalibur brand in general. Lost Swords

I'm actually quite excited about the singleplayer for Call of Duty Black Ops 3, but what's equally as exciting is the new changes being made to the multiplayer.
The multiplayer is of course where the majority of players will be spending most of their time, so if you are like me you are probably wondering about the different maps that will be available at launch.
Fortunately, a few details on the maps in Black Ops 3 have already been shared, along with some other multiplayer information. We only have details about three different maps so far, but that's more than enough to keep us patiently waiting a little bit longer for more information.
The known map details are provided below.
Hunted: A Mid to long range engagement map with a waterfall in the middle allowing for swimming mechanics
Combine: A tight, close quarters map allowing for SMG's and shotguns to dominate with a risky wall running spot.
Stronghold: A snowy/icy based map in the foothills
