Best Buy Is Practically Begging People To Buy Starlink: Battle For Atlas

Starlink: Battle for Atlas didn't exactly fly off the shelves when it released in 2018. Late to the toys-to-life trend, Ubisoft's spaceship shooter retailed for a whopping $75. Yes, it came with a customizable toy spaceship that attached to controllers, but the price likely deterred many from trying it out. Battle for Atlas' price has predictably plummeted, and right now Best Buy is practically begging customers to clear its remaining stock of the starter pack for Switch.

For a measly $6, you can take home the starter pack, which comes with the game, Fox McCloud's Arwing ship, a Fox figurine, a couple of Arwing attachments, and a poster. The Switch version even has an exclusive Star Fox mission and comes with a digital version of the Zenith starship.

Here's the thing: Starlink isn't a bad game. In fact, it's pretty fun, and the Switch version is the best of the bunch because of the Star Fox crossover. In GameSpot's Starlink: Battle for Atlas review, writer James O'Connor praised the game's ship combat and Star Fox content but wasn't a fan of the repetitive objectives.

Ubisoft did an admirable job of making Fox's appearance feel like a genuine part of the story. If you want, you can even pretend that Battle for Atlas is a Star Fox game. Please make a new (preferably good) Star Fox game, Nintendo.

Best Buy's offer is only good for pickup in-store, so you will actually have to tell a Best Buy employee that you're there to pick up Starlink. Even if you end up not liking the game, you'll still have Fox's Arwing. I personally think the ship alone is worth the price of admission.

Kenny Omega's AEW Dynamite Entrance Is A Love Letter To Undertale

It's no secret that professional wrestler and executive vice-president of All Elite Wrestling Kenny Omega loves video games. And on the October 30 episode of TNT's weekly wrestling show, AEW Dynamite, Omega showed off his love for Undertale . Before he entered the ring, his video package played a 16-bit cutscene that was very reminiscent of the game, featuring a yellow and red disembodied head, which is totally a knock at the New Japan Pro Wrestling's logo--a company Omega wrestled for--explaining Omega left all his friends and now, he's all alone. This includes a silhouette of Omega's former tag team partner, Kota Ibushi. You can check out the video for yourself below. The sound effects and dialogue from the end of that section are taken directly from Undertale. After the video package ended, Omega entered wearing a Sans mask, while Megalovania--the song from the game--played in the arena. Surprisingly, this worked incredibly well as entrance music for one of t...
