Improved Comments and Avatars Now Available on PixlBit

Represent yourself with a 64x64 image when you comment!

As you may have already notice, comments on PixlBit have been given a face-lift. Rather than the drab presentation once featured before, both user comments and staff Our Takes should now have a bit of a pop.

To further spice things up, users (that's you guys) can now upload an avatar to be shown next to your name when you comment. In order to use the feature, just follow the "My Profile" link in the top bar after logging in and scroll to the bottom of your profile. Simply choose a file of JPG, PNG, or GIF type that is under 1 MB and click "Upload".

If you aren't seeing the comment updates, just refresh the page and everything should pop right in. Feel free to let us know what you think and if you encounter any issues below.

Just make sure you don't upload any questionable images. Those could get you banned.

GIF is enabled, just gotta make sure it gets uploaded at 64x64, or else it will get resized and stop moving.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Review

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
