As a vocal advocate of the need for next-gen consoles and a consistent supporter of new platform launches - as evidenced by their launch games on the 3DS, the Vita and next week’s Wii U - Ubisoft is always looking towards the future. And with key franchises including Assassin’s Creed, Ghost Recon, Rayman, Splinter Cell, Far Cry, Rainbow Six, etc. all with recent and/or near-future releases, there’s a lot of strategic planning happening in order to support and see success with multiple high profile brands....

The film tells a fictionalized story of Black legends Cassius Clay, Malcolm X, Jim Brown, and Sam Cooke they meet to celebrate Clay’s surprise title win over Sonny Liston in a Miami hotel room in February 1964.

This What We Do in the Shadows review contains spoilers. What We Do in the Shadows Season 3 Episode 1 What We Do in the Shadows season 3 episode 1, “The Prisoner,” moves quickly through the blood and raw meat left over from the slaughter of the season 2 finale, “Nouveau Théâtre des Vampires.” The episode is named for the faithful familiar Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), who took out about 70 percent of the most powerful vampires in the Tri-State area....

This is a guest post from Gabriela Houston, the London-based Polish author of The Second Bell, a Slavic fantasy debut described as a cross between His Dark Materials and The Bear and the Nightingale. You can find out more about the book here. Historically speaking, the fantasy genre has a thorny relationship with motherhood. Technically, it’s acknowledged that the protagonists must have sprung from somewhere. But it is often solely their paternity that is seen as important—while the mothers, if mentioned at all, are usually either dead of irrelevant: unmentioned or languishing in a convent somewhere....

Every day, more and more VALORANT fans are getting their hands on beta key drops from Twitch streams and with a total of ten agents to choose from, new players are often left wondering just who they should play. Before figuring out a main for Riot’s new tactical shooter, it’s best to learn what differentiates the agents from each other, as well as the similarities between them. Every agent in VALORANT has four unique abilities....

Later this year, GTA 5 will celebrate its eighth anniversary. It will also be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X. Not only will that mean the Rockstar title has spanned three generations of consoles, but it still shows no signs of slowing down. It remains a bestseller around the world, hitting number one for February in the North American PS4 download chart, and recently surpassing 140 million copies sold. That makes it the second best-selling game of all time behind Minecraft....

Since Pokemon has stuck around for so many years, there have been a whole host of different types of regions throughout the games and anime. These regions are inspired by real-life locations, so the scenery, native Pokemon, building structures, and more are influenced by these places. For example, the Kanto region is based off the actual Kanto Region in Japan. Similarly, the Galar region is inspired by Great Britain—mostly England and parts of Scotland....

I was a latecomer to zombie films, mostly out of terror, but also because there just weren’t many memorable zombie movies coming out in the late ’90s. Believe it or not, besides George A. Romero’s Dead films, which I would discover a little while after my first viewing of Zack Snyder’s 2004 Dawn of the Dead remake, zombie movies and TV shows (non-existent in the ’90s) weren’t the cash cows they are today....

The question first came up in the 1990s, following the release of The Godfather Part III, and it has surfaced occasionally over the years: will we ever see The Godfather Part IV? The fact is that we came fairly close at one point — but a potential fourth entry in the series was ultimately stopped in its tracks. While The Godfather Part III was a modest success with both critics and audiences (it earned $136 million in 1990 money at the box office), it was not enough of a blockbuster to indicate that there was a large audience out there still hungry for more of the Corleone family....

This article contains The Woman in the Window spoilers. Joe Wright’s The Woman in the Window is not shy about its Hitchcockian influence. It’s there in both subtle and overt ways from the very first scene. During one of the film’s opening shots, the camera pans around Amy Adams’ ridiculously spacious New York City brownstone and passes a television screen that is inexplicably playing the ending to Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window (1954) in slow-motion, with Jimmy Stewart wrestling against the grip of an out-of-frame Raymond Burr....

Team Ninja surprised a lot of people today by releasing a demo for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (the studio’s upcoming Soulslike title set to release in 2023). While that demo strongly suggests Wo Long could be one of 2023’s best games, the action title’s most fascinating feature so far has to be its elegant approach to the kind of optional difficulty settings the Dark Souls franchise (and many other Souslike games) have avoided so far....

World of Warcraft’s newest expansion, Shadowlands, brings players to the afterlife of Azeroth. Not only does it expand abilities and allow players to meet old, dead WoW NPCs again, but it also has made some changes to the best specs for healing in both raid and Mythic+. Healing Specs for Shadowlands Players looking to heal in Shadowlands have several main specs options that they should explore. They should also take into account the Covenant they want to join; some healing specs work best with one of the four Covenant’s abilities....

Xbox boss Phil Spencer has conceded that the company’s next-gen consoles will be hard to come by for the rest of 2020 and into 2021. It is officially next-gen month. This time next week, the Xbox Series X and Series S will officially be on the market worldwide. Two days later, the PS5 will be released in certain markets, and then the rest of the world a week after that. The trouble is, if you don’t already have a pre-order for one of them locked down, chances are you won’t be getting one on launch day....

Microsoft, especially with the console generation cycle of the Xbox Series X, has seemingly found a penchant for hidden teasers throughout its content. Now, some Xbox fans believe they have spotted even more secrets in the Xbox Series X fridge trailer. When Microsoft first unveiled their latest and greatest console, fans were quick to point out its similarities to a refrigerator. While Sony’s PS5 was also met with comparisons to an internet router, Microsoft decided to roll with the punches....

The next generation of consoles is a little over a month in and while lots of fans know which console they want, some uncertain buyers might need a bit more of a push to decide which console is for them. Despite a limited stock, Sony and Microsoft are pulling out all the strings in order to entice fans to purchase either a PlayStation 5 or an Xbox Series X, respectively....

The announcement of the Xbox Series S is perhaps the biggest surprise of the past week. The next-generation console will cost just $299 to the Xbox Series X’s hefty $499 price point, but still promises next-gen performance at 1080p or 1440p resolutions. Clearly, at $200 cheaper Xbox fans understand that the Xbox Series S console will be limited in other significant ways. But something they likely didn’t expect is that the Xbox Series S won’t even be receiving the improvements made for the Xbox One X....

A Twitter user with a good track record on Xbox rumors claims that Microsoft will launch a Summer Sale for Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Windows 10 titles starting next week. Summer is always a good time for gamers who love a deal, thanks largely in part to Steam’s annual Summer Sale, which is currently running through July 4th. But that sale isn’t much help for gamers who prefer to play on consoles....

Crash 4 players can now see what it would be like if Cars’ Lightning McQueen was a part of the bandicoot’s world. When a game arrives on PC, odds are mods will quickly follow. Last month, Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time arrived on the platform, and modding fans quickly got to work. This week, a modder who goes by CrashCroshAppleSauce unleashed what might be the best Crash 4 mod so far....

A new Yu-Gi-Oh! anime has been announced as part of the 20th-anniversary celebration for the anime series. 2020 is considered to be the 20th anniversary for the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series, because the current license holders want everyone to forget the original Yu-Gi-Oh! anime that was developed by Toei in 1998. The second iteration of the anime debuted in the year 2000 and was called Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters in Japan. It was this series that was localized internationally and would debut in North America in 2001 under the name of Yu-Gi-Oh!...
