Call of Duty: Vanguard – PS4

Staff Pick

Another year, another Call of Duty is ready to release its latest entry in the long-running series. This time, the game sends players back to World War II and packs a more narrative-focused single-player campaign.

The next generation of consoles is here, and this time it might take some redecorating with the best entertainment center for PS5 to make sure it all fits together. With consoles feeling the need to continue improving graphics, speeds, and features to keep up with PC growth, it only makes sense that they also grow physically to fit the components. The PS5 runs in at 15.4-by-10.2-by-4.1 inches. This is huge compared to the PS4 Pro, which measured under 13 inches on its longest side. So, let’s prepare accordingly with these entertainment stands for the PS5.

Unique placement options

Monarch Specialties TV Stand, 1 Drawer

This unit might have the least creative name on our list, but it makes up for it in actual options for where to put your PS5. The unique spiral design leaves a lower “top shelf” on the right side to house your PS5 vertically without resorting to placing it on the top of the media stand.

Sometimes, your PS4 suffers from a random fluke and won’t stop starting in safe mode. There are several reasons why your PS4 may be stuck in safe mode. The problem often revolves around a loose cord or a console update, but other times it’s more complex. So while you’re going through this guide, make sure you test out all of those simple fixes first before you take the route of initializing your entire console. After all, while the PS5 is available, it’s still hard to get, and if you’re still actively gaming on the PS4, you’ll need to take care of it as much as possible.

A brand new Resident Evil experience is almost here, with Resident Evil Village picking up right where Resident Evil 7 biohazard left off.

Best answer: Yes. You can use gift cards and credit cards together on the PlayStation Store by using PlayStation Network gift cards (PSN cards) or by adding funds with a registered prepaid gift card.

Can you combine gift cards and credit cards on PlayStation Store?

PSN cards are the easiest way to purchase games through the PlayStation Store for PS4 and PS5 users. They can be purchased as either a physical card or a digital eCard in values of $10–$100. Cards are activated at the time of purchase and they come with a unique code. The physical cards have a scratch-off material over the code while e-cards will be followed up with an emailed digital code. The only downside to PSN cards is they are limited to use on accounts from within the same country of purchase.

When you go to the PlayStation Store, enter your PSN code under Redeem Codes. Entering your PSN code here will add the card’s value to your account’s wallet so when you go to checkout there will be an option to use your…

The long-awaited return to Oddworld is here. Abe’s story continues.

Abe led us through some crunchy, zappy, and very explode-y situations in Oddworld: Abe’s Odyssey and Abe’s Exodus back in the days of the original PlayStation. Since the original release, Oddworld Inhabitants, the developers of Oddworld games, have taken us on a journey with Munch and Stranger, and gave us a beautiful remake for the beginning of Abe’s story in New’n’Tasty.

Six years after the remake, we are ready to see more of Abe’s story.
