Hideo Kojima’s living his best life, hanging out with all your faves, working on a cool video game called Death Stranding , and getting free instant ramen wherever he goes. It’s probably a coincidence that Kojima is having such a conspicuously great time while Konami releases Metal Gear Survive , its first post-Kojima Metal Gear game, to a tepid response. These kinds of hangouts are actually pretty common since Reedus plays the main character of Death Stranding (and he says the concept is mindbl

Today on Amazon , you can score a solid $200 off the 14″ Razer Blade, a stealth bomber of a gaming laptop that hides VR Ready graphics and the power of a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 under its hood. The Razer Blade 14″ for $1699.99, $200 off the usual price. Price drops on these machines are rare outside of Black Friday mania, so this is a great time to grab one of our best gaming laptop choices. Here’s what our reviewer had to say about the Razer Blade:”It’s hard to say a negative word about Razer’s

Let’s make something clear from the outset: Red Sparrow is absolutely not that film. Never boring but occasionally troubling, Red Sparrow is, like its central character, a tricky one to read. But for all it’s glossy production values, Red Sparrow doesn’t feel like it’s appealing to the Bond market. Red Sparrow is based on a book by former CIA officer Jason Matthews, which is itself part of a trilogy; no doubt the movie’s producers have their eyes on a franchise. THE VERDICT: A solid espionage th

The Walking Dead season 8 is back and, better yet, surprisingly half decent! What are we supposed to make of Old Man Rick? After being starved of Old Man Rick scenes since the season 8 premiere, Honor gave us three separate insights into the dream-like future that looks a far cry from present events. We’ve established that these scenes are all going on in the minds of Carl and Rick, but is The Walking Dead suggesting something more? That’s because The Walking Dead has a severely unreliable track

Fact: Kingdom Come: Deliverance is unlike any other RPG around at the moment. Thanks to the mountains of Steam reviews ( 12,132 and counting ) you can see just what that learning curve looks like. Goodbye hand-holding tutorials…on my first quest i was told to get some tools back from the town drunk. i tried to find the guy who sells lockpicks but gave up on that and decided to try a different way. i went back and just started punching the man, and was forced to run for my life after realizing

The Oscars 2018 is nearly upon us. When and where is the Oscars 2018? Live from the Dolby Theatre in LA, the Oscars 2018 takes place on Sunday March 4, 2018 at 1am GMT/8pm EST/6pm PST, with the main ceremony starting half an hour later. How can I watch the Oscars 2018? Star Wars: The Last Jedi is up for Best Original Score, while Blade Runner 2049 gets the nod in Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Cinematography.

Within 20 minutes of starting you understand the horror Dead Space has in store for you. Dead Space is one of the most highly-rated horror franchises of all time. The main draw of Dead Space was its combat: as previews started to go live, it was becoming clear this wasn’t playing by the usual rules. Unlike most horror games, where enemies are made ostensibly readable to prevent player frustration, Dead Space wanted to trick you. The series arguably peaked with its Dead Space 2 – it just perfecte

Star Wars: The Last Jedi may have been one of the longest movies set in a galaxy far, far away, but it couldn’t fit in everything. How that sets up Star Wars 9 is anyone’s guess, but it certainly paints that shirtless scene in a whole new light. Snoke, Snoke, Snoke. Then again, maybe it’s something that will come to light in Star Wars 9…The Last Jedi left out a lot of riskier elements. But read why the most daring thing Star Wars: The Last Jedi did was embrace the prequels.

It looks like Kojima still has some loyal followers at Konami with the discovery of a secret message inside Metal Gear Survive. Survive is obviously the first Metal Gear game since Kojima left Konami in what looks like a very messy split, and it appears at least someone on the game’s team still has feelings about that. The last two names, Bastard Yota and Cunning Yuji seem to be a reference to Survive director Yota Tsutsumizaki and producer Yuji Korekado. The final credits of the game do… sort

EA has revealed its first set of spring upgrades for FIFA 18 Ultimate Team, and exactly as GR predicted there are ratings increases for Harry Kane, Mohamed Salah, and Kevin de Bruyne. 60 Premier League players in total have been granted an attributes boost, including super-meta Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante, and Kyle Walker of Manchester City. The upgrades to Kane, Salah and de Bruyne are less pronounced, but will still make a big difference for elite players. Unlike last year, no players will

Payday 2 on Nintendo Switch takes a novel approach to local co-opYou can now rob a bank while sat in a bank. At the time PUBG was around but not huge, and Fornite had yet to explode with its own Battle Royale mode. As always, Fortnite: Battle Royale remains free-to-play, so you might as well hop in now and see what all the fuss is about.

Fortnite Battle Royale season 3 is live, and along with the various updates and tweaks applied, Battle Pass holders can now complete weekly Battle Pass Challenges for additional Battle Stars and rewards. For week 1 this involves finding three different animal statues located around the island, and following a hidden treasure map to a secret cache. Read on, and you’ll be racking up those bonus Battle Stars in no time. LlamaThe Llama statue is located in the north west corner of the map, north of

This morning I watched Mute, the new sci-fi mystery film from Moon and Source Code director Duncan Jones. Quite the opposite; the whole point of science fiction is to extrapolate the human experience in order to explore it on an exploded scale. He is a man in a science fiction city who avoids using digital technology whenever possible. In a show that emphasises the ‘science’ part of science fiction though, things can get messy if not treated with utmost care and finesse. Of the two, I certainly

But what if there was another way to look at games and analyze them? Video game menus are not the most exciting topic in the world. If it helps, think of scrutinizing menus like codebreaking – uncovering hidden messages left by a game’s developers. The Sonic games are, relatively speaking, pretty basic. That makes it easier to notice differences than, say, Mass Effect, where BioWare was always going to try and make things look befitting of its sci-fi universe.

Not the FPS Syndicate reboot from 2012, the 1993 original from Bullfrog Productions. The critical response to Mute has been mixed so far but you can’t argue with Duncan Jones’ chops as an old-school strategy game fan. Minor spoiler warning for Mute if you’re sensitive to plot details, though this scene gives little away by itself. And this is what the mind-controlled cyborg thugs from Syndicate look like, at least on the box art (in the game they’re about 20 pixels tall). For more sly cinematic

Thankfully, our favourite ex-medjay Bayek is on hand and is ready to kill a few undead souls in the new Assassin’s Creed Origins: Curse of the Pharaohs DLC. As you’d expect with Assassin’s Creed Origins, it’s not simply a case of chucking the glittering beetle back in Nefertiti’s sarcophagus. But, regardless of whether you want to start diving into ancient Egyptian mythology rather than hay bales, the splendour of this new area is enough to get you hooked. From the couple of hours I’ve played of
