The pace has never been more breakneck as plot threads that seemed only vaguely connected begin to converge, and we learn more about the inner workings of the mysterious Black Lodge. But was he killed or transported to the Black Lodge? Does this mean Evil Cooper is nearing Twin Peaks? I like the idea of Cooper returning to Nevada and becoming a family man after he deals with Evil Cooper in Twin Peaks. Whatever’s happening here, Cooper has intimate knowledge of how things in the Black Lodge work

You know how you should always change into your highest Light-level gear before you get your engrams decrypted, so that the loot gods know to give you the most powerful gear possible? PSA: In D2 it’s no longer advantageous to equip your most powerful gear when decrypting Engrams. We check for your best possible loadout nowAugust 28, 2017The player responses were rapturous. Destiny had enough weird little quirks and time wasters without strongly encouraging me to change my armor every time I retu

Mario + Rabbids gives you the action and strategy of XCOM in a way that does justice both to Mario and to the Rabbid’s kooky style. It does, though, because it mixes brilliant, polished game mechanics with a real understanding of Mario and what people want from a Mario game. The biggest complement I can pay Mario + Rabbids is that it doesn’t feel like a third-party title, but something one of Nintendo’s own studios has made. Whether you play it at 900p on your TV or 720p on the undocked console,

Game of Thrones season 7 ended with everyone spread all over Westeros, a good few characters gone for good, and the Night King’s army finally doing some damage. These are the major questions we have after watching Game of Thrones season 7 and fingers crossed season 8 will answer most if not all of them otherwise closure will be a distant dream from Thrones fans. It now looks like they’ll be separated in Game of Thrones season 8, but what about when (see: if) the Night King and his army is defeat

A Victorian horror movie about murder, Karl Marx, female empowerment and the theatre of pain? It’s a miracle Peter Ackroyd’s 1994 novel Dan Leno and the Limehouse Golem ever made it to screens, let alone that it only took 23 years. The action flits from the courtroom where Elizabeth Cree (Olivia Cooke) stands accused of poisoning her husband, to the cobbles of Tower Hamlets, where Inspector John Kildare (Bill Nighy) hunts the ‘Limehouse Golem Killer’. With Cooke a revelation, and Nighy an engagi

The Dragon and the Wolf delivers exactly what you’d expect from a show at the top of its game, heading into its final season, making it one of the single best episodes not just of Game of Thrones season 7, but of the series as a whole. Game of Thrones, at its best, is a show about small moments feeling huge, and big moments feeling personal – both of which are in abundance here. For all the story satisfaction, however, Game of Thrones season 7 has suffered from some of the most obvious narrative

One of the new multiplayer modes for Call Of Duty WW2 is War Mode, which sees a squad of players working together to achieve objectives. When we spoke to Michael Condrey, studio head at Sledgehammer Games, he revealed that War Mode won’t just change how you play, it’ll change who you play. “One of the War maps is Operation Neptune and that’s D-Day,” Condrey says. It’s worth noting that Call Of Duty WW2 doesn’t have an Axis single-player campaign, which is probably for the best. Call Of Duty WW2

On the Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Blu-ray commentary, Gunn revealed he keeps an extensive list of music on-hand while working. “The truth is I have a list of about 500 songs that I think of as ‘Meredith Quill songs’ – songs she would really love.” Meredith Quill, in case you’ve forgotten, is Peter Quill’s mother, and the person who gave him Awesome Mix and Awesome Mix Vol. And dang, there must be at least 50 more Awesome Mix volumes kicking around out there if Gunn has that many songs associated

We’re still more than half a year away from the premiere of Avengers: Infinity War, but its as-of-yet untitled follow up is already shooting in Georgia. And thanks to some leaked set photos, it appears we already have some MCU spoilers floating around the internet. Potts’ last appearance was a small cameo at the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming, as she attempted to prepare Peter Parker for a press conference properly introducing Spider-Man to the world. In any case, it looks like he survives whatev

Have we ever needed a new season of Black Mirror more? Prepare to have your brain blown apart and put back together again in the way that only Black Mirror can. You know, the one about the young man being blackmailed that left you feeling slightly queasy by the end. We don’t know when the new season will be available, but you’ll find all the details we do have below. Will we need to take compassionate leave from work the way we did after last season’s San Junipero episode?

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a game that shows what America would look like under Nazi conquest and ideology. “But on the other hand I think those themes are timeless,” Matthies continues after a quiet moment. “That’s the thing with Nazi Germany, is that the vast majority of the population got on board with this. And I’m sure there was some degree of resistance within the German people, but the vast majority did not resist. For more on killing Nazis, read our hands-on Wolfenstein 2 preview

Destiny 2 opens with an attack on The Tower and your Guardian losing (along with all their gear and weapons) the power of the Light. That definitely sucks, but it doesn’t mean defeat – as evidenced by the newest member of the Destiny crew, Hawthorne. Say hello:There’s not much info on Hawthorne aside from this video, which… I said, “THERE’S NOT MUCH INFO ON HAWTHORNE ASIDE FROM THIS VIDEO.” According to Destinypedia, Hawthorne (full name: Suraya Hawthorne) left The Last City as a teenager to f

Where other shows include intro sequences as an obligation – with which to dutifully dole out nods to principal cast, producers and directors – Game of Thrones’ title sequence is much, much more. “Now in the original pilot script, [show creators] Dan Weiss and Dave Benioff had written a title sequence in which a raven flies from King’s Landing to Winterfell. But in response, ideas started to spin like gears and cogs, and the ultimate form of the title sequence began to come about. Suddenly, rath

We’ll probably never get another Half-Life game, but where official Valve canon fails us, series writer Marc Laidlaw does not. Dr. Fremont and her companion, Alex Vaunt, fly the Hyperborea into the heart of enemy territory, where they intend to detonate it. It looks like Dr. Fremont is doomed, but is then pulled through dimensions by the Ghastlyhaunts and saved. Laidlaw’s account even matches well with some supposedly leaked concept art for Half-Life 2: Episode 3, which appeared on the web in 20

Let’s just skip past that unfortunate Crackdown 3 2018 delay and get straight to what the series is all about: Power. Because, close to two years after it faded into the shadows, our impressions and expectations of Crackdown 3 have only warped with time. We – as you undoubtedly do too – remember Crackdown 3 being built around the concept of uninhibited destruction. “We’ve made a lot of progress since fans last saw [the game] at Gamescom 2015,” admits Clint Bundrick, the Microsoft Game Studios de

But Call of Duty WW2, as the the title suggests, is very much on the ground in Europe fighting the battles that have gained such a huge place in history. “World War 2 was really about common men and women. It’s your initial onboarding where you look at your Division, and then you decide what you’re going to do with your time.”And for me, that’s going to be playing the new War Mode. It’s a fresh mode coming with Call of Duty WW2 that pits two teams of XX against each other on historically-based a

Most of us stare at the origami unicorn in Blade Runner and ponder if it means that Rick Deckard is, in fact, a replicant, and has spent the entire movie hunting his own kind. What we should be thinking is, ‘How do I make one of those babies?’Well now you can, with the kit that comes with the new issue of Total Film magazine (on sale August 25 or you can subscribe here). Check out the time-lapse below:Once you’ve done that, you can give yourself a pat on the back, plonk the horny horse pride of

Xur, Destiny’s travelling weekend Exotic trader, in-demand medieval propmaster, and highly critical, Marvel Cinematic Universe essayist, is back. This week he’s in the Reef, having a bit of a rough day. Target tracking, radar when scoped, bigger heavy ammo drops, extra super energy from heavy kills. The Last Word is great fun, if not as powerful as it once was, due to a range nerf. As ever, Xur will be around until 10am UK / 2am PT on Sunday, at which point he’ll be away for another week.

If by make you stronger, you mean unleash a couple of killer vehicular weapons in Star Wars: The Last Jedi that is. Star Wars’ very own YouTube channel has the scoop (obviously?) It also moves faster than the lumbering AT-ATs first featured in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. And maybe we’ve already seen its handiwork if it has something to do with whatever exploded in that Star Wars: The Last Jedi image. Want more Star Wars: The Last Jedi news?
