The Walking Dead season 8, episode 3 has thrown up some interesting questions that should (hopefully) carry the show towards the mid-season finale. Spoilers for The Walking Dead season 8, episode 3 follow…Long live the KingLet’s start at the end: King Ezekiel, Carol and the rest of his followers were attacked by unknown assailants. I just hope Rick vs. Daryl isn’t in the works. #TheWalkingDead6 November 2017Rick: “You have my word *under his breath* but not Daryl’s”#TheWalkingDead6 November 2017

The Walking Dead season 8 episode 3 manages to redeem the series somewhat after that second episode with some hope and renewed focus. It’s a sound that seems to echo through this third episode of The Walking Dead Season 8; one that unnerves and unsettles both the viewer and members of Rick’s crew. But nothing quite unnerves the viewer as much as a dodgy second episode after such a promising first. There are flashbacks and flashforwards between Carol and Ezekiel putting a plan together before exe

“If you’re kind and polite, the world will be right!” declares Paddington Bear in Paddington 2, the inevitable, and welcome, sequel to 2014’s box-office hit . The advice derives from our hero’s beloved Aunt Lucy, 99 years old yet still going strong back in deepest, darkest Peru. That pic, you’ll recall, featured Nicole Kidman as a mad taxidermist out to have Paddington stuffed and mounted at the National History Museum. THE VERDICT: State-of-the-art effects combine with playful, generous storyte

First off, the entire StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty single-player campaign will be playable for free. If you’re not familiar, that’s the first third of StarCraft 2’s three-part narrative, focusing on the Terran side of the conflict. Already own Wings of Liberty? Blizzard has done a fantastic job of keeping StarCraft 2 current between paid expansions, free updates, and community events. This free-to-play change will likely be the most significant step in preserving StarCraft 2’s relevance yet.

It wouldn’t be a Blizzcon without a World Of Warcraft expansion, and this year’s packed in two. First, the reveal of WoW’s next massive expansion Battle for Azeroth, and second, the arrival of official Vanilla World of Warcraft servers. The announcement of Blizzard Vanilla servers got almost as manic a reaction as the expansion. The chance to experience retro flavors of WoW has been a hot topic in the community for a while now, especially since Blizzard shut down private Vanilla servers last yea

Overwatch is getting a new support hero whose ultimate is a healing/hurting kamehameha beam. Her name’s Moira and I haven’t played her yet but – as an unrepentant support main – I already love her. The other big Overwatch announcement to come out of Blizzcon was a unique new map: Blizzard World, coming early next year. Whether or not Blizzard World adds much to Overwatch’s story, it will be fun to fight through the gates of Stormwind without having to flag yourself for PvP. Do you think there’s

Gamer gear specialist Razer is releasing a new line of Overwatch themed accessories just in time for Blizzcon, including this spot on D.Va headset.

Destiny 2 is changing the rules a bit for the next Faction Rally. The most notable change, aside from new loot, is that Heroic Public Events may no longer be the undisputed king of efficient faction token farming; here are the numbers straight from Bungie. Strikes now reward faction tokens at a range of 5 to 9 faction tokens per completion (up from 3 to 7)Nightfall now rewards 10 to 18 faction tokens on first completion per characterCompleting Heroic Public Events now rewards 5 faction tokens (d

It’s difficult to pin down the exact date, but it might have at least started when developer Infinity Ward first hung up the M1 Garand and thrust an M16 into our hands. This wasn’t World War 2 as the history books portrayed it, but as Hollywood had. This was made possible by the power of the Xbox 360 and the ambition of Infinity Ward along with it. It’s a contained shooter that tries its best to marry the horrors of World War 2 with the chaos demanded by a modern first-person shooter. It’s perhaps un

Xur’s back with gear for everyone in Destiny 2 and he’s got the Graviton Lance! There’s also Nezarec’s Sin for Warlocks, Young Ahamkara’s Spine for Hunters and Mask of the Quiet One for Titan.

It’s a pulse rifle with a third shot that literally break space time, meaning it does more damage and basically goes forever. tl;dr – it’s a pulse rifle with great range, good stability, tha

The Walking Dead will never die. Like its walkers, shambling around without purpose, AMC foresee the franchise sticking around for a long, long time to come. As reported by Deadline, AMC CEO Josh Sapan deliberately uses the word franchise when talking about The Walking Dead’s future. “The use of the word ‘franchise,’ we don’t take lightly. The Walking Dead has been on the wane for the last couple of seasons and its video game counterpart is essentially over and done with.

Secrecy shrouds The Witcher Netflix series. Andrzej Sapkowski, the grumpy creator of The Witcher saga is also along for the ride to consult with the showrunners on creative matters. While Sapkowski is a household name by now, you may not recognize Baginski and Sawko. But what makes them such a great fit for The Witcher Netflix series is their work on the cinematics for The Witcher games. At their best, The Witcher games are living up to the promise of their intro videos.

The Han Solo movie has undergone a fair shake-up, to put it mildly. Phil Lord and Chris Miller departed, to be replaced by Ron Howard; the movie has allegedly been completely reshot; Michael K. Williams has left the production. Elsewhere, hearing of the dialogue between Ron Howard and the two fired directors opens up a whole set of questions: How coherent will the movie be? Why was Ron Howard asked to come in and overhaul the movie? If nothing else, there’s going to be a great documentary made a
