Sony recently confirmed that you will be able to add PS5 games that are available for free via PS Plus to your library, even if you haven’t quite managed to wrangle as PS5 pre-order yet. We already knew that the PS Plus games for this month are Middle-earth: Shadow of War, Hollow Knight, and Bugsnax, but there’s some interesting information hidden in the finer print of the most recent PlayStation blog post....

Discussions about ad tech often revolve around the extensive and complex systems used to direct advertising to individuals and specific target audiences. Techopedia Explains Ad Tech In one sense, ad tech involves items like digital banner ads and other conveyance methods for advertising....
This article contains spoilers for the Better Call Saul finale. Better Call Saul ended its fantastic six-season run on Monday night in the most fitting way possible. There were no gunshots, there was no bloodshed, and there was no physical violence or gore. Instead, the show ended with a mesmerizing mix of flashback scenes and courtroom dramatics, harkening back to the program’s early seasons before the characters got so mixed in with the cartel....
There’s LEGO everywhere. What’s this? There’s toy blocks in the air. Or at least on this table. Reddit user TheDarkonaut clearly has an eye for the twisted wonder of Tim Burton, as proven when they took to the LEGO subreddit to show off their re-creation of Jack Skellington’s house from The Nightmare Before Christmas. The attention to detail is astounding. Everything from the classic Burton-style dead tree (seriously, he seems to enjoy dead trees like Michael Bay enjoys explosions) and even to the smoke billowing from Jack’s chimney is rendered with intricate care and stunning accuracy....
If being Venom was like being in the Beatles, then Peter Parker would be Pete Best. His stretch of time in the late-80s wearing his living, black costume is a staple of his history. Before it turned Eddie Brock into a box office giant, the symbiote made for a badass variant look for Spider-Man that still holds up to this day. It’s the ultimate story of how we can lose ourselves to power, even if a loved one beat you over the head with lessons about responsibility....
What are the gangs in Cyberpunk 2077 all about? There’s been a lot of hype about this game because it’s meant to be CD Projekt Red’s next open-world masterpiece. The fact that it will include fan-favorite action star Keanu Reeves is also boosting the hype. The game is based on the tabletop game Cyberpunk, which came out in 1988. Cyberpunk 2077 will be an open-world RPG adventure game set in the futuristic Night City, California....
What is it about horror movie sequels? They either hit the mark or miss them completely, and it’s never in between. But there are no absolutes. It’s all subjective. Take Candyman II: Farewell to the Flesh for example. Some find it superior to the original film, citing that it’s more engaging, atmospheric, and bone-chilling. Since I can hardly ever get past the first 20 minutes of it, I can’t say that I agree with them....
William Neff ripped his shirt off on stream, which was (not) totally unexpected. Successful Twitch streamers always have something to set them apart from the rest of the crowd. Some of them are successful esports players, but the truly huge Twitch celebs always have something else going on. For Dr Disrespect, it’s the outlandish costume and ludicrous mustache. For Alinity, it’s for constantly getting banned and unbanned for slipping a few too many nipples....
Star Wars: The Bad Batch was a welcome surprise for fans who hoped to get more episodes of The Clone Wars despite the show completing its story last year. Picking up right where Star Wars‘ most beloved animated series left off, The Bad Batch follows a squad of genetically-mutated elite clone troopers known as Clone Force 99 as they navigate a quickly changing galaxy after the end of the interstellar civil war....
Developer Bohemia Interactive has announced the Arma 3 Art of War contest, where artists and fans will be able to submit their original 2D art and 3D asset creation. These creations could be selected in what will ultimately form an upcoming charity DLC to aid the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment. You can read more about the investigation here. World of Warcraft‘s recently revealed Dragonflight expansion promises to offer quite a few new things. It features a new race (the Dracthyr), enhanced dragon-riding controls, a new progression/skill tree system, a new ranged damage spec, expanded profession options, and all the new content you expect from most WoW expansions (new zones, fresh raids, a raised level cap, etc....
With World of Warcraft: Shadowlands releasing in less than 2 months, the community is looking forward to leaving Battle for Azeroth and stepping foot into the realms of death. While the recent Afterlives animated videos are fleshing out each of the new covenants prior to their in-game story, players are anxiously awaiting the reveal of other updates coming with the imminent pre-patch event. In response, the Shadowlands login screen that will greet heroes for the next few years was finally unveiled earlier today....
Blizzard’s Warcraft franchise has easily been one of the most successful video game series in the history of the industry, with World of Warcraft still standing as the pinnacle of what MMORPGs can be. However, the live-action representation of the series hasn’t exactly done quite as well as the digital versions, though a mock teaser by a fan imagines what star any World of Warcraft future movies should try to pick up....
World of Warcraft’s Shadowlands pre-expansion patch made fundamental changes to the process of leveling characters. Not only has the level cap been reduced from 120 down to 50 (60 when Shadowlands releases), but the time it takes to level a character has been drastically reduced. What’s more, the new Chromie Time feature allows new characters to play through an entire expansion while all of the enemies continuously scale to your level no matter where you’re questing or what content you’re engaging with....
With Sony’s cards laid out on the table as far as the PS4 is concerned, the ball is now in Microsoft’s court - as gamers anxiously wait for the next generation of the Xbox.

We’ve heard a lot about how the console might require a constant Internet connection, while a competing rumor claimed that is not the case....
Mobile gamers that are adamant about not buying an Xbox console will have a reason to sign-up for Xbox Game Pass in the very near future. Microsoft has announced that the merger of Game Pass with Project xCloud will be happening on September 15, 2020, effectively bringing the subscription service to mobile devices. It will initially launch on Android devices only, but will likely head to iOS sometime later. On the official Xbox website, a blog post reads, “Cloud gaming as part of Xbox Game Pass is the next major step in our ongoing vision to put you at the center of the experience, to give you more value from your games and membership, and to remove the barriers from play....
It looks like the thing we feared the most on Titanfall launch day has actually occurred, although not in the way that we expected. Xbox Live is down for a large many of Xbox One users, who are now left unable to play Titanfall on its all-important day of release. Microsoft has gotten out ahead of things and confirmed that the issue is not Titanfall related, but that is irrelevant to gamers who can’t hop online....
The launch of the Xbox Series X and the Xbox Series S is less than a week away. Yet, new details about the consoles continue to be shared. One area that has remained mostly nebulous up until recently is exactly how much storage space will be available in next-gen Xbox consoles. With official console reviews now coming in, the Xbox Series S’s available digital space has been confirmed, and it’s not the most encouraging....
Microsoft will be ushering in the next-generation of video game consoles on November 10 when it launches its Xbox Series X and S consoles. With just a month to go until the Xbox Series X launch, Microsoft has released a new live-action commercial that hints at various Xbox Series X games, starring Daniel Kaluuya of Get Out and Black Panther fame.
