The gaming world has seen a dramatic shift in the last few months, as the PS5 and Xbox Series x shake up the scene with powerful new hardware.

It always helps to have a familiar face backing a system, and Xbox has found one....
John Krasinski and his wife Emily Blunt both lost out on major Avengers roles back when the MCU was in its infancy. Blunt was originally Iron Man 2 director Jon Favreau’s pick for the part of Black Widow, before she had to pull out due to scheduling conflicts and Scarlett Johansson ended up snatching it from her grasp, and Marvel was keen to compare Krasinski with its other Captain America: The First Avenger choice, Chris Evans, before making a firm casting decision for Steve Rogers....
“C’mon, c’mon let’s skate some more!” So goes the catchy jingle in a 1996 TV commercial for Inline Skating Barbie. How little did the target demo realize then that about 25 years later, we would all get to see Barbie do it for real. Yet here we are in the future where at least Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken are having some fun! That joyous fact is revealed by the latest batch of set photos from the set of Greta Gerwig’s delightfully surreal-looking Barbie movie....
Before Gearbox rose to fame with Borderlands, it helped Valve out with expansions for Half-Life, working on Opposing Force, Decay, and Blue Shift in the early noughties. The latter starred Barney Calhoun who eventually went on to appear in Half-Life 2 as a main character, a huge supporting member of the cast who was pivotal in helping Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance. He went as far as being the one that dropped our HEV-clad Combine slayer his old rusty crowbar, and since that moment, he’s been as much an icon as any other in the universe, but he hasn’t been seen since Episode 1....
With the Battlefield 1 player count now higher than 21 million, it’s up to publisher Electronic Arts and developer DICE to keep those users engaged well into the holiday season.

As the name suggests, this Battlefield 1 DLC will revolve around beachfront assaults and naval clashes....

Last month, Sony and Microsoft released the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, respectively. As expected, the launch of both next-generation consoles has caused quite a bit of stir in the gaming community, given that Microsoft and Sony were unable to keep up with high demand. Unfortunately, most retailers still do not have stocks of the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, but it appears that those who could not get one at launch now have another chance to snag a next-gen console soon....

Biggie Smalls, born Christopher Wallace but AKA Notorious B.I.G., is a contradictory legend. A rapper who was always heard singing, a serious artist who never stopped clowning, he took the streets with him knowing it would take him down. His first album was called Ready to Die and his next was Life After Death, but he had a life in between. It is sad how his legacy is posthumous. But, as Sean Combs says at the very start of Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell, “This story doesn’t have to have a tragic ending....
Fans of the gothic point-and-click series Black Mirror may have thought that the series would never return. However, six years after Black Mirror 3 released, the series is getting rebooted with Black Mirror (henceforth, Black Mirror 2017), releasing today. While Black Mirror has never been as prolific as fellow point-and-clicks like Sam & Max or the LucasArts games, each installment was met with a decent amount of critical praise. The art direction in particular was well-received, with players and critics alike appreciating the dark, foreboding atmosphere struck by the games....
