Super Mario 64: Tiny-Huge Island Stars - Pluck the Piranha Flower, 5 Itty Bitty Secrets and more

We really are in the final stretch now. Tiny-Huge Island is the 13th course of Super Mario 64, and the last in the castle upper lobby. 13 might be unlucky for some, but it's not so bad in Mario 64 - Tiny-Huge Island is one of the best levels in the game. It has a unique gimmick, which is that you can be tiny or huge. Thus the course name. That means giant Goombas, and tiny, harmless Goombas.

Anthem: Primers, Detonators and Combos explained

There’s more to Anthem’s combat than firing a high impact shot and using cool new abilities to defeat your enemies. When in your Javelin, you have a full arsenal of surprises up your sleeve and a powerful Ultimate Ability to boot. It makes sense then that you should be able to pull off a few spectacular Combos when playing in a team.

Realm Royale lost about 95% of its Steam player base since launch

Realm Royale, the battle royale shooter from Paladins, and Smite developer Hi-Rez, has seemingly lost players' interest in the two months since its release. Realm Royale entered Steam Early Access on June 5. Right out of the gate, the game wasn't very popular, attracting less than 5,000 concurrent players daily on Steam. Several Twitch streamers picked it up, however, during its launch week - including Ninja, Shroud and many others. This caused numbers to jump considerably, and allowed Realm Royale to reach a peak of over 100,000 players, according to analysis by Githyp.
