Legendary Pokemon Manaphy Now Distributing Until June 24th June 1, 2016

Boot up your copies of any sixth generation Pokémon game because Nintendo and The Pokémon Company are now offering the legendary Pokemon Manaphy, a Pokémon previously only available through the Nintendo DS exclusive game Pokémon Ranger, completely free of charge.
All you need to do to get this Manaphy is connect your 3DS to any WiFi hotspot (if you don’t have one at home there’s a wide variety of Nintendo Zone locations that should suffice). Your 3DS and your copy of the game must also be up to date, but you can update both from the Nintendo eShop.
You can get the Manaphy by accessing the game’s Mystery Gift menu before booting up your recent save game. Simply select “Recieve a Gift From the Internet” while your 3DS is connected to an Internet hotspot and you should recieve your Pokémon in no time.
From there, you can boot up your save and get Manaphy from the mail lady at any in-game Pokémon Center. Just make sure to save once you have Manaphy on your team.
Check your gift menu as soon as you can because the distribution will only be happening until the 24th of June. Manaphy will be at Level 100 when you get it, so there’s no need for a lot of time-consuming experience grinding.
Manaphy can be obtained through Pokémon X, Pokémon Y, Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire.

Halo 5: Guardians Forge Mode Coming Free to Windows 10 May 21, 2016
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
Big news coming out of Microsoft this week as Halo developers 343 Industries have officially announced that they will be releasing Forge Mode from Halo 5: Guardians free to all Windows 10 owners.
This is a huge announcement. Forge was first included in Halo 3, and since then it has become an enormous part of what makes Halo multiplayer so successful. It allows private users the ability to create and tweak their own multiplayer maps, and share them with their friends and other users online. However, up until this point, level creators using Forge have been stuck creating content using a only a game controller and many content creators would prefer using a keyboard and mouse. Now they’re not going to have to worry about that because the Forge editor is coming to Windows 10 completely free of charge.
While this announcement was made a day or two ago, we held off on reporting it until we knew more information, and now we have it. The Windows 10 app will likely be released exclusively through the Windows 10 store when it is available. The app is written specifically to take advantage of the new DirectX 12 api, and takes full advantage of a keyboard and mouse interface. Modders used to creating content for PC titles should feel right at home.
There will be some limitations to the free Windows 10 editor. Users will be able to test their created content on Windows 10 can be tested on Windows 10 and the Xbox One, but the Windows 10 editor will not have access to the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer matchmaking service. Windows 10 users will only be able to play and test Forge maps with users on their friends list.
While Microsoft has no plans to release the full version of Halo 5: Guardians on the PC, Halo 5: Guardians is out now exclusively on Xbox One.
