French Counter-Strike team re-sign star French player, celebrate by sticking him on a golden gun-throne in front of the Eiffel Tower because they’re French-

French esports club Team Vitality has announced that its star Counter-Strike player Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, who helped the team win the last-ever CS:GO Major, has re-signed to stay with the Parisians until 2026. And boy is Vitality excited about the news.

The outfit decided that only one thing would do for this announcement. Zywoo is French and the king of the AWP-ers, Vitality is a French esports organisation, and arguably the team’s finest moment was winning the Paris Major last May.

Vitality therefore announced the player’s new contract by making him sit on a golden throne made out of Counter-Strike guns, with the Eiffel tower as a backdrop.

Vitality later posted a tribute video to the player:

The team later posted some close-up shots of the throne itself. The AWP appropriately enough is the throne’s highest point, while Zywoo also appears to have been granted a crown made of bullets. I’m not sure what the golden skulls are all about. The whole thing looks like someone’s 3D printed a bunch of gun models and spray painted it gold, but hey: do you have a golden throne made of Counter-Strike guns? Thought not.

“Very proud to extend with Team Vitality and continue to wear these colours,” said Zywoo. “Thank you everyone for your support all these years. Eyes on the future now, and a lot of trophies in sight with this amazing team and fans.”

Vitality knows exactly what it thinks of Zywoo re-signing: “the best player stays in Paris.” Tres bien. As well as the throne, Vitality also unfurled a giant banner from the Eiffel Tower itself and took out billboard ads in Paris with some enthusiastic Zywoo stats: “Won 10 S-tier titles, Major Winner, 2 Times Best HLTV Player of the Year, 18 MVP Awards.”

When it comes to Counter-Strike 2, Team Vitality has made itself the team to beat. There will be no shortage of challengers but, in holding on to its most-prized asset, the French champions have made what they’ll hope is a major statement of intent. As for the photo opp… well, at least they didn’t make Zywoo hold up a baguette like it’s an AWP.

Square Enix scrapping iOS version of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles over unfixable bug

Square Enix is ending support for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles on iOS after discovering a bug it has deemed unfixable.

Detailing the situation in a blog post, the Japanese publisher explained the bug is currently preventing players from accessing in-game content they had previously purchased.

Batman- Arkham Knight Review

“A clean shot to the head,” drones the villain known as Arkham Knight. “That’s all it will take.” At every opportunity, the Knight speaks of the horrific deeds he might perform, doing his best to drive fear into Batman’s heart throughout the open-world adventure game that features his name. Scarecrow similarly trades on Batman’s doubts, attempting to convince the troubled hero of his own impotence at every turn. “All eyes, all hopes upon a man who fails his friends,” calls out Scarecrow through Gotham’s public networks, reminding Bruce Wayne that he, too, bears responsibility for the losses his loved ones endure.

Batman is a troubled hero, and past Arkham games haven’t shied away from exploring his dark side. Arkham Knight is no exception: the caped crusader growls his way through one confrontation after another in which he must question his role in Gotham’s current crisis. We’ve seen these themes before, many times over, and Batman: Arkham Knight’s villains repeat t…

Soul Hackers 2 Review – Amateurs Hack Systems, Professionals Hack People

From the very beginning, Soul Hackers 2 makes it clear that it’s not interested in wasting time. Within the first two hours of starting up Atlus’s latest JRPG, you’ll have all of your main party members, know the focal points of the story, and have a grasp on almost all of the primary gameplay mechanics. It’s a refreshing and stark contrast to the “slow-burn” kind of gameplay JRPGs are known for, and a very different approach than fans of the larger Shin Megami Tensei series might be used to. It’s clear, then, that the goal of Soul Hackers 2 is to forge a new SMT subseries with a distinct approach to gameplay–a goal which it largely succeeds at.

In the future, mankind is stuck in a rut: Technological and social progress has stalled, and the human race faces a sort of global ennui. Beneath the outer fabric of society, however, groups of gifted humans who can communicate with the supernatural world work underground as “Devil Summoners.” Some, like the Yataga…
