We’ve seen all the E3 2018 games , watched every press conference (yes, even the Square Enix one), eaten the questionable show food, and played the demos. Generally speaking, E3 2018 has been a good one, if a little weirder than usual. During the Xbox E3 2018 press conference, Spencer said the team was “deep into architecting the next Xbox consoles, where we will once again deliver on our commitment to set the benchmark for console gaming”. Winner: Gaming on the goWhether you’re playing on your

Jack Black was also called in to help, playing a variety of characters / pretty much whatever the scene called for. Along with the actors giving voice to the Grim Fandango characters, a live band provided music and a few sound effects. Meanwhile, a screen behind the group displayed storyboards and concept art, giving viewers a look at the creative process behind the beloved game. Schafer commented several times how proud and happy he was to see the cast reunite after 20 years (yes, it really has

You still can’t play Fortnite on Switch with your main Epic account if it’s ever been associated with PS4 , and Sony has finally issued a statement responding to player concerns. “We’re always open to hearing what the PlayStation community is interested in to enhance their gaming experience,” Sony’s statement said. “With… more than 80 million monthly active users on PlayStation Network, we’ve built a huge community of gamers who can play together on Fortnite and all online titles. We also offe

Something unprecedented is going to happen at SDCC 2018. For the first time ever, Game of Thrones won’t have a presence at the event, and neither will Westworld. To thicken the plot further, their reasonings for not being there make it seem very likely that Game of Thrones season 8 and Westworld season 3’s release dates are set in stone for post-SDCC 2019. SDCC takes place in July every year and, with neither of HBO’s premiere shows making an appearance, it only indicates one thing: Westworld se

The Resident Evil 2 remake announced at E3 2018 sounds like a dream come true – the original game reimagined in the Resi 7 engine, and with that classic Resi 4 over the shoulder camera. Now we’ve got 24 minutes of Resi 2 Remake’s E3 2018 gameplay to pick over. The good news is Capcom are doing some truly horrible things with the new engine… That new Resi 7 RE engine tech that made that game’s Mold enemies so slimy and nasty is working well with the old classic zombies. This remake isn’t using

Hitman 2’s release date is currently November 13 so it’s not too long before you can try your own version of what’s in the video. The two targets here are Robert and Sierra Knox, two former members of Providence that have since defected. The events of the previous Hitman game originally started with 47’s bosses, the ICA, and Providence as enemies but the two have since (kind of) worked things out, hence the current targets. We’ve cut the video after the first hit just to keep time down but there

And that’s why bringing him back for Wonder Woman 2 (AKA, Wonder Woman 1984) – which director Jenkins recently confirmed via Twitter – is one of the worst things that could happen… because it basically undoes all of this. Wonder Woman 2 is going to have to go to ridiculous lengths to bring Trevor back (the current money is on him actually being a different version of Steve from an alternate timeline, or being saved from his fate in Wonder Woman by a timey-wimey wormhole), and yet that’s exactl

Here’s where to find all the football pitch locations in Fortnite for the Week 7 challenges. Score a goal on different pitches: south of Pleasant ParkThe Pleasant Park football pitch should be very familiar and it’s hard to miss. You’ll need to head here initially:Then, because it’s a secret football pitch you’ll be using these containers as goal posts. Score a goal on different pitches: Flush FactoryThere’s another Fortnite secret football pitch in Flush Factory and it’s quite well hidden, so p

Ewan McGregor is going to play Danny Torrance in Doctor Sleep, a direct sequel to The Shining. First up, here’s the story: Variety are reporting that Ewan McGregor is the lead in Doctor Sleep, an adaptation of Stephen King’s 2013 sequel to The Shining. Stephen King and Ewan McGregor!!! @mcgregor_ewan is going to play Danny Torrance in Doctor Sleep, and I’m so freaking excited! !14 June 2018Ewan McGregor as Danny Torrance is honestly a brilliant casting choice.

It’s treasure map time again in this week’s Fortnite Battle Pass Challenges and this time you’ve got to head to Tilted Towers to find your reward. Oh, and there’s a pickaxe damage challenge as well so good luck with that when you land. Here’s how to follow the treasure map found in Pleasant Park in Fortnite’s Week 7 challenges:How to follow the treasure map found in Pleasant Park 1: head to Tilted Towers on the mapLet’s just skip past finding the actual treasure map in Pleasant Park because no o

The first thing I’m told about the Ghost of Tsushima is that it wants us to feel like we’re in a time machine. Because my god, Sucker Punch care about this game so much that it’s gone above and beyond to get ancient Japan exactly right. Sucker Punch even sent someone to Japan just to record the sounds of the wild, from the birds in the air to the sound of the trees brushing against each other. Because Ghost of Tsushima is tough – so tough, in fact, that it’s been toned down for the demo. Sucker

The Fortnite Pro-Am crowned its victors and the crowds filed out of the Banc of California Stadium, but just like in any game of battle royale, the real fun to be had was in enjoying the chaos along the way. The 50 duos of Fortnite-playing streamers and significantly-less-Fortnite-playing celebrities made for some novel matchups, and we’ve picked out some of the best moments for your eternal enjoyment in this highlight reel. Spoiler alert: Ninja and Marshmello won (if you don’t follow Fortnite m

But if the winds of fate had blown a slightly different direction, this would not have been the case. Would Ghost of Tsushima have stood out if one of modern gaming’s biggest series had chosen the same setting? “The phrase ‘worst nightmare’ actually comes to mind,” said Sucker Punch co-founder Chris Zimmerman in a round-table interview at E3 2018. [The Mongol invasions are] great times, really interesting times, really interesting people and characters. Be sure to check out our full list of E3 2

There was a lot to digest there, so I’ve broken out just the part about the setting below. As you could see in the trailer, the town is doing pretty well for itself, all things considered. Still, that’s just one part of the game, and just one part of the E3 trailer. It cuts from the dance scene to Ellie stalking through a woods, then a city, both of which could easily line up with the fan detective work pointing to Seattle . And if the game is anything like its predecessor, Ellie will probably d

Telltale’s Stranger Things, while developed in cooperation with Netflix, is not currently planned to launch in the same manner. Lastly, on the topic of games streaming, Netflix had the following to say: “We don’t have any plans to get into gaming. Separate from its streaming plans, Netflix also plans to partner with Telltale on a Stranger Things adventure game. Stranger Things is already rife with game imagery and parallels, from the boys playing Dungeons & Dragons to the arcade from season 2’s

Their responses helped shed some light on just who these strange people are (aside from stealth-kill fodder for Ellie). Why do they act so much more strangely than most of the enemies we encountered in the first Last of Us? “So the people in Jackson [where Joel and Ellie settled] have learned to survive in kind of a cooperative, wholesome way. “They’re super deadly, and the way that they communicate with each other with the whistles, they’re able to coordinate with each other without revealing t

And with Gambit, the new competitive multiplayer mode that’s a fantastic blend of PvE and PvP, Bungie is definitely on the right track. When you cash in your Motes, you’ll send enemy Blockers into the other team’s arena and also start the process of triggering the end boss, a Primeval. If you manage to kill the other players, you’ll heal your teammates and slow the other team down. It’s ridiculously good fun, and the kind of drama that Destiny 2 multiplayer is missing for me right now. I’m actua

Ellie doesn’t want anyone to know she’s immune… but why? Hence why she’s going to kill every… single… one of them. Joel and Ellie aren’t on good termsSo we know that Joel and Ellie are still at Tommy’s settlement and that things have become about as normal as they can get in a post-apocalyptic scenario. The reason Naughty Dog are keeping so much secret is basically because they know we’ll figure it out. There are twists you’re not going to see comingThey’re keeping all that information und

Because it really, really doesn’t. It’s probably still the stand-out text when looking for an example of a violent game that’s also about violence. Video game violence has caught up with The Last of Us. It certainly snared the attention, but it also flew in the face of the first game’s philosophy of violence with purpose. But it still feels a retrograde step, in light of the way the 2013 game shook up so many norms of narrative and perceived maturity in video games.

Wonder Woman is almost ready to save the world again in Wonder Woman 2, which director Patty Jenkins gave new details for this morning. First up, the official title: Wonder Woman 1984. Here you go:Welcome to WONDER WOMAN 1984, Steve Trevor!
