This article contains spoilers through Batwoman season 2 episode 16 “Rebirth”. At the start of the season, Roman Sionis took down Kate’s plane with information obtained from Safiyah. The two are strange bedfellows, united in their misguided hate for the Kane family. Roman’s vendetta, while extra AF, does make sense in a twisted way—he blames Jacob for Circe’s death. Safiyah’s revenge, on the other hand, feels petty, given what she’d already done to Alice—and Ocean—in the immediate aftermath of their perceived slight....

Modern gaming hardware is extremely powerful. Lightning-fast SSDs and high-end GPUs capable of ray tracing power help power the latest gaming consoles and PCs. However, for all of their hardware might, those systems have a tough time running games designed for older platforms. Other platforms simply offer an incredibly limited selection of retro games. That’s where emulators come in. Instead of trying to brute force retro games to play on modern hardware, coders develop programs that simulate the conditions provided by older platforms....

Whether you’re a cat person, a dog person, a bird person, hamster person, a snake person, or even a giant African snail person, keeping your animals safe has to be a priority for any pet owner. Keeping track of your pet or pets with the help of some connected tech might mean being able to get a look at where they are in your house whenever you like, or it could mean getting a bit of insight into where exactly they roam when they get set loose in the neighbourhood....

The Switch may be comfortably en route to becoming one of Nintendo’s most successful consoles of all time, although recent reports continue to state that it will be replaced by the long-rumored Switch Pro before the year is out. This snazzy new version of the illustrious hybrid console is reported to have a more powerful CPU, increased storage capacity, and a fancy 720p OLED screen, which all sounds fine and dandy - but what about Joy-Con, eh?...

Blizzard’s popular hero shooter Overwatch is in an interesting spot at the moment, with Overwatch 2 on the horizon and players still getting used to some of the newer mechanics like Hero rotation.

In a new video clip from Reddit user NabitDMO, the glitch appears to happen once D.Va is forced outside of her mech....

Blair Witch: Oculus Quest Edition is Bloober Team’s VR adaptation of the studio’s 2019 take on the franchise.

Blair Witch: Oculus Quest Edition picks up just two years after the events of the original movie and follows former police officer Ellis Lynch and his trusty dog Bullet as they search the Black Hills for a missing 9 year-old boy....

After Blizzard revealed that it was going to share some Diablo-related news at BlizzCon 2018, fans were expecting either Diablo IV or a Diablo Remaster. Instead, fans were met with a mobile game entitled Diablo Immortal, which was a surprise announcement - a surprise that has not been well-met. At a Q&A shortly after the reveal of Diablo Immortal, a dissatisfied fan asked,“is this an out-of-season April Fool’s Joke?” During the same Q&A, principal designer Wyatt Cheng - after being booed for saying it isn’t coming to PC - asked, “Do you guys not have phones?...

Blizzard is apparently developing a never-seen-before game. While initial speculation leaned towards the project simply being Overwatch 2, recent developments have left fans wondering whether they may have been too hasty. The evidence is slowly mounting that Blizzard may be putting together a totally unseen before IP. Things really kicked off when Dan John Cox, a Senior Artist at Blizzard Entertainment, put out an ad via Twitter in search of candidates to join their design team....

Borderlands is one of the most popular franchises in all of gaming. The very first game came out back in 2009 and it was very unique. It helped popularize the looter shooter genre and is pretty famous for having over a million guns in each game. The gameplay is exceptional and the RPG elements to go along with the vast open-world are great as well. Furthermore, the series also has a compelling story with memorable characters....

With only a little over a month left before Borderlands 3’s release, there’s no doubt that the hype train is at full steam, and Gearbox Software appears to be doing some of its final testing on the game. Case in point: Gearbox was recently testing Borderland 3’s Twitch social features, via a channel with a jibberish name, and this ultimately turned into a 4-hour game playthrough streamed directly to Twitch....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War launched earlier this month, earning mostly positive reviews and selling millions of copies out of the gate. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War features the franchise’s signature multiplayer mode, Zombies, and unlike Black Ops 4, a proper story campaign. Furthermore, the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War campaign ends in a way that leaves the door wide open for Raven Software to continue the story in sequels....

Call of Duty is not a source most people go to when looking for accurate historical information, but the popular series still helps shape popular perception of political events, particularly those surrounding the US military and intelligence agencies. Because of this, people notice when this supposedly “apolitical” series’ divergences from real history seem to follow a geopolitical agenda. All this is to say, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War claims that the USSR was behind the Iran Hostage Crisis....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is changing up the CoD formula in more ways than one, and its change to scorestreaks is certainly going to be a controversial one. Today, it was confirmed that Black Ops Cold War will be taking the risk of making scorestreaks carry over after dying. While longtime fans will no doubt be happy to see the return of the old mini-map in Black Ops Cold War, the change to scorestreaks will no doubt be disliked by a portion of the community....
