Update 2: One of the founders of BGFG, owners of N4G has posted an update >> https://n4g.com/user/blogpo...
Update: We are recommending that users reset their password here on N4G and anywhere else that they would use the same username, password, and/or email combination.
There may be site downtime in the next few hours to work on this issue.

Hello everyone.
Not the news we want to present today, but there is a security issue with accounts on N4G. We are not aware of how far it goes or how much it affects everyone, but we want to make sure you know that we are aware of it currently and are investigating it.
For now, to protect yourself, we do suggest resetting your password on N4G.
As the BGFG Team works to narrow down the issues, we will update you with any additional information.
Thank you,
Christopher
"Digital board games can be tons of fun, especially when they're cooperative. That's what's in store for Beacon Patrol from Assemble Entertainment. Based on the real-life board game by Torben Ratzlaff, Beacon Patrol has players work together to explore a map and create a network of coastal paths, all by placing tiles. It's a lot like Carcassonne and Kingdomino, but set on the high seas. The upcoming Steam version will support 4-player local co-op, and there's a single-player demo right now," says Co-Optimus.
Mario Kart World is some of the most fun you’ll have this year that offers a deep experience with the Switch 2’s launch.
Few games among the Nintendo Switch 2 launch line-up can match Cyberpunk 2077 in putting the system through its paces. It's a staple of our PC benchmarking suite for good reason: the open world design is a solid stressor for any CPU, while its effects-heavy battles challenge GPU resources as well. This Switch 2 release has clearly been a big undertaking for developer CD Projekt Red too, who produced the port in-house with unique optimisations for Switch 2's ARM-based architecture. It's also remarkably the Ultimate Edition of the game, with both the core adventure and the more taxing Phantom Liberty expansion bundled in - an extra portion that proved too demanding to justify a last-gen console release, and was instead restricted to PS5 and Series X/S, and yet here it is running on Switch 2.
To cut to the chase, Switch 2 offers a truly viable way to enjoy Cyberpunk, either in a portable format or docked under a TV. However, CDPR has shot for the stars in its ambition to include Phantom Liberty as well, and it's here that Switch 2 hits some technical limits - with frame-rates struggling as we explore its newer Dog Town region. Still, that aside, there's a lot to admire in the game's engineering for Nintendo's new console overall, and how competitive it is in comparison with other consoles.
I am happy for CDPR. Their hard work paid off because the Switch 2 version are always in the top 5 Switch 2 launch game sales.
This may be one of the weakest launch lineups Nintendo has ever had, with Mario Kart being the only first party game, but Cyberpunk 2077 will definitely give you tremendous value for your money.
One tip I can give people who have never played the game is to first read books from the cyberpunk subgenre. This will allow you to appreciate the story much better. If you find yourself asking which life path is the best to take at the start of the game, in this case it is Corpo, Streetkid, and Nomad. You likely don't know enough about the genre, and certain things will fly right over your head. While it is not mandatory, the game will be 10 times better if you read or listen to some books first.
Some books I have enjoyed in that genre are:
Cyber Dreams by Plum Parrot,
Stray Cat Strut by RavensDagger
Tower of Somnus by Cale Plamann
Mist Runner by Nicholas Searcy
If you can only read or listen to 1 book, then I recommend Cyber Dreams by Plum Parrot. It is the closest thing to Cyberpunk 2077.
DF are Nintendo's occasional bootlickers after that blatant Zelda games ad scandal.
Games like CP2077 are meant to be played on big console or powerful PC on a big screen.
Got to love how they're simp for full price purchase of 5-year-old game and still getting the worst version to play on.
I wondered why i was seeing this:
Update:
N4G is garbage. Your account data is not secure here.
Visit www.ResetEra.com instead!
If you use your N4G password on other accounts, you should change them immediately! Un-encrypted passwords and emails will be on the dark web Dec 25.
Ever since N4g was bought and had a merger or whatever... Christopher appeared as the Liquid Boss, and things went south.
Slow site loading, error timeouts, crazy video ads... and now this.
Wtf are you doing over there?
I blame Xbox
I'm sorry to see it happen to the site and I hope that everybody gets away unscathed.
If anyone has recycled their passwords absolutely reset them everywhere not just here we may not know for certain if they were exported and I'm sure n4g isn't exactly going to have a incident response team so just take the precaution of changing your details everywhere you can.
If Christopher does see this it's probably worth telling people to reset to a unique combination on every account rather than just n4g
PWNED! all the zoom zooms with the same passwords for everything better get busy!
