More clues appeared in Call of Duty: Warzone over the weekend suggesting that Verdansk is about to get its very own subway network. Season five is currently underway in Modern Warfare and Warzone. It ushered in the opening of Verdansk’s stadium, and the addition of a train working its way around the map. Both of those elements were rumored throughout season four due to leaks, data mines, and pure speculation. Season six begins at the end of September, and the educated guesses as to what new element it will bring have already begun....

Canon’s latest concept could provide haptic feedback through the shutter button to allow for silent shooting without the need for artificial sounds. The idea is that the shutter button can vibrate when autofocus is locked on and also simulate the feeling of a shutter click. So, in situations where silence is paramount, the photographer has all the information they need without the usual beeps and boops that come along with it....

Despite releasing 12 Assassin’s Creed installments since 2007, Ubisoft is still finding ways to keep the series fresh, and the latest sequel, Valhalla is one of the best titles yet. Is it a revelation for the series? No—there are very few new ideas presented here. But it’s a polished title with solid gameplay and a story that is exceedingly coherent for an open-world AAA title. In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, you play as Eivor, a fearsome Viking in 873 AD who lost her parents in battle, a moment that left her literally scarred and hellbent on getting revenge against the warlord who slaughtered them....

Avowed is going to have some tough RPG competition on the next-gen of consoles. Cyberpunk 2077 and The Elder Scrolls 6 will both be vying for the first-person open-world RPG market, but Obsidian does have one key way to get ahead. Obsidian’s work on Fallout: New Vegas demonstrates one way that Avowed can distinguish itself. It’s a feature included in New Vegas that some of the most popular Skyrim mods have tuned to a fine craft, and it’s one the developers’ next game should have at launch if it wants to fly and not to flop: survival/hardcore modes....

Fans of the hit movie Back to the Future Part 2 were in an uproar when Netflix aired a censored version of the film. Back to the Future Part 2 is a sequel of the immensely popular science fiction movie Back to the Future that released back in 1989. The film stars Michael J Fox as Marty McFly traveling through time to stop rival Biff Tanen from altering history. The movie is now available to view on Netflix, but fans are angry over how it changed one aspect of the film....

Shortly after Apex Legends launched out of left field, developer Respawn Entertainment banned 16,000 cheaters. At the time, there were 25 million players checking out the latest battle royale to hit the market and that number has continued to trend upward ever since, but so has the number of cheaters. It now seems that the Apex Legends developer has dropped the ban hammer once again, as many of those banned as part of this new ban wave have voiced their complaints online....

Since the console’s release, Microsoft has spent a considerable amount of time enhancing older games, bringing titles like Forza Horizon 4, Gears 5, and Sea of Thieves to the next-generation with significant visual upgrades. Recently, the company even implemented a new FPS boost feature for certain Xbox One titles, with the initial lineup seeing UFC 4, Watch Dogs 2, Far Cry 4, Lucky’s Tale, and Sniper Elite 4 get vastly improved frame rates....

When it comes to choosing a camera to watch over your home remotely, you’re spoilt for choice nowadays. In fact, there are increasingly two big categories to choose between - after all, many home security cameras are indoor cameras. If you’re looking for an outdoors camera, though, with the hardiness to stand up to adverse weather, there are numerous options too. If you’re wanting to keep an eye on the area in front of your home, perhaps to check up on an alleyway or something similar, or have a camera focusing on your garden and your back door, then you’re in luck....

Romance movies are not that different from horror movies. Both are incredibly hard to pull off, are heavily watched during a cold time of year, and hopefully end with every character covered in blood. With that in mind we present to you a list of the best romantic movies on Netflix. Because romance deserves it, damn it. Virtually every song ever written is a love song but poor romance can’t get a fair shake at the movies....

Both Sony and Microsoft have revealed their next-generation launch plans, with the Xbox Series X set to release on November 10, and the PlayStation 5 to follow on November 12. Both consoles will be releasing with a slew of new games, as well as access to a vast library of backward compatible titles. Once the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are out in the wild, it will be interesting to see how fans and critics react to the consoles’ launch titles....

If Prey 2 fans weren’t already concerned about the shooter’s status after cancellation rumors arose this March - or after it was delayed due to “unsatisfactory progress” this April; or after reports of labor strife within its developer, Human Head Studios, the following day; or after its discouraging absence from E3 2012; or after Bethesda removed the game from their product lineup earlier this August - then they certainly had cause for butterflies when IGN Benelux ran an interview with Bethesda VP of PR and Marketing Pete Hines over the weekend....

Biomutant doesn’t get off to a strong start. Its first hour is filled with self-contained locations that are a far cry from the sweeping vistas we’ve seen in early trailers, with claustrophobic corridors and underground dungeons serving as the locale for a lengthy tutorial. Its entry-level combat doesn’t resemble those early trailers, either, coming across as clunky and unresponsive when compared to some others in the genre. However, after that first hour of slogging through the janky tutorial, its true colors finally shine through –Biomutant is an ambitious game that bit off more than it could chew....

Despite impressive sales figures and overwhelmingly positive critical response (read our review) for Mass Effect 3, the conclusion to Commander Shepard’s space saga has been met with a number of heated controversies - including frustrations over the depiction of fan-favorite character Tali’Zorah as well as Mass Effect 1 character import problems. However, nothing has been more contentious than reaction to the various Mass Effect 3 endings. The debate about whether or not the ending should be changed doesn’t appear to be limited to gamers either - as we’re now getting conflicting reports from inside the BioWare umbrella about whether or not there is any chance that the developer will redesign the ending (or offer-up some DLC to address the larger concerns)....

February 8th is a big day for Blizzard as its anniversary, but this year it holds even more weight. Celebrating 30 years of making amazing video games and delivering them to the public, the company is sharing fun images and concept art from its “vault.” Among the plethora of really cool art are the forerunners of many things that fans know and love, including an interesting piece of concept art for the 1993 game titled The Lost Vikings....

It’s hard to deny the massive success that Bloodborne was for both PlayStation and FromSoftware. Even now, the conversation surrounding a possible Bloodborne 2 for PS5 is reaching a fever pitch, as the game was absent from Sony’s PS5 reveal event. Still, that doesn’t mean that fans and members of the gaming community are losing interest in the game. In fact, an indie game developer recently published a 16 bit Bloodborne “demake” in a style similar to the Legend of Zelda games of old....

The return of Gearbox’s iconic loot shooter series with Borderlands 3 has fans plenty hyped, and today they got more to be excited over. A new trailer for Borderlands 3 made an appearance at Microsoft’s E3 2019 conference, highlighting the new characters and their abilities in their fight against the Children of the Vault cult in Borderlands 3. The four new characters players will be able to choose from are Moze the Gunner, Amara the Siren, FL4K the Beastmaster, and Zane Flynt the Operative....

Darren Aronofsky hasn’t directed a feature film since 2017’s mother!, an experimental horror movie starring Jennifer Lawrence that polarized audiences with its Biblical allegories and ambiguous ending, but he’s returning to the director’s chair for The Whale, an ambitious drama about a 600-pound recluse. Brendan Fraser has been cast to play the lead role in the project, which is being adapted from Samuel D. Hunter’s play of the same name....

After years of storing player statistics and other data for the early installments of the Halo franchise in the original Bungie website, halo.bungie.net, Bungie stopped updating those stats nine years ago. For the memories, they did keep them available on the site for players to look at and reminisce about time spent with those early Halo games. But buried in an announcement yesterday on Bungie’s current website between news of updates and issues in Destiny 2, Bungie stated it would be removing those player stats permanently and the original site will be shut down in February....

Bungie’s upcoming, unannounced title will feature “competitive multiplayer game mechanics” and include some form of “ongoing live updates,” according to its latest job postings. Specifically, Bungie is hiring for an Incubation Multiplayer Systems Designer – one that is in tune with global gaming markets and is familiar with the competitive esports scene. A few other important details can be gleaned from the posting, such as a particular emphasis on teamplay and the need to create a game that offers hundreds of hours of gameplay and multiple ways for players to improve their skills....
