This article contains The Batman spoilers. We have a spoiler-free review here. As far as teases go, it’s not exactly a subtle one. The final scene in The Batman gives us a look at the Riddler, alone in his cell at Arkham Asylum, although not truly alone. In the cell next to his sits a shadowy, scarred figure, one barely glimpsed through the tiny, reinforced window on the door, who is trying to comfort the agitated and defeated villain....

Mass Effect is one of the most beloved franchises in science fiction history and fans have been eagerly awaiting the chance to play the original trilogy on PS4 and Xbox One since the consoles released in 2013.

Nearly a decade after its release, fans still rave about how spectacular it is. Like the Dragonborn’s skill tree, its success seems to have been written in the stars....

It has come to my attention that some people think having EDI as a squadmate in Mass Effect 3 is rather stupid. Working in video games, you get used to hearing bad opinions - someone here wants High School Musical in the next Kingdom Hearts game, even though the obvious choice is cult TV detective drama Fillmore. Thinking EDI is a daft squadmate isn’t just a bad opinion though, it’s one I completely struggle to get on board with....

It shows Jang Ji-sung interacting with a virtual avatar of her daughter who passed away from leukemia in 2016 at the age of six....

The eighth generation of gaming has officially kicked off and it’s been in quite some style.

Playtonic Games, the studio behind Yooka-Laylee and its sequel, Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, will allegedly be rebranding very soon. Announced through a message to its backers on Kickstarter - and picked up on by Twitter user Logan Meyer - the developer claimed that the decision is in service of something new for the studio, telling readers that “there is a good reason for us doing so.” For those unacquainted with Playtonic, the team was originally formed back in 2014, launching a Kickstarter for a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie called Yooka-Laylee....

This Young Justice: Outsiders review contains spoilers. Young Justice Season 3 Episode 26 Young Justice: Outsiders has been up and down. It’s been a lot more up than down, but the negatives of the season are there and undeniable. And true to the entire season before it, “Nevermore,” the season finale, does just about everything narratively that the rest of the season has done before it, and the result is a mixed bag of an episode that’s mostly good with some glaring, grating issues....

Present-day Malmo isn’t a safe place to be. At least, not for the residents of the Rosengard estate, a place ruled over by drug dealers and gang violence. When we meet Wallander (Adam Pålsson), he’s living a solitary life there in a small apartment and keeping his job quiet from the locals who don’t exactly hold the police in esteem. His pre-Ystad career’s still in his infancy, revolving more around noise violations than solving murders....

Techopedia Explains McQuary Limit Users who were in love with bulky and elaborate signature blocks might exceed the McQuary limit by quite a large margin....

Back in January of this year, the news broke that popular manga publisher Shueisha was issuing large numbers of copyright strikes to users across various social media platforms, taking down everything from manga images, to reviews, to fan art. This made many people quite upset, as Shueisha owns some of the most popular franchises in manga history, and seemingly everyone, regardless of context, was at risk. Now that the company has taken the time to respond to the controversy, however, the stories surrounding the Shueisha copyright takedowns aren’t as straightforward as they once seemed....
