Last month, we revealed that Bethesda was partnering with Titan Comics to produce a two-part prequel comic to The Evil Within 2. It seems the publisher isn’t stopping there, as it’s announced plans to partner with Titan once again, this time for a tie-in to Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus – and we’ve got the first, exclusive look. Simply titled “Wolfenstein,” the comic will be written by Dan Watters (Limbo [the comic from Image, not the video game from Playdead]), with art by Piotr Kowalski (Sex

Well, that sure was an episode of Twin Peaks! Gordon Cole (David Lynch) calls Frank Truman (Robert Forster) in Twin Peaks. Cole seems to understand the significance of this, but tells Truman that he can’t explain further. He attempted to cover up Richard Horne’s hit-and-run in episode 6 in exchange for money, and is likely involved in other corruption in Twin Peaks. Fire is, of course, a powerful force in Twin Peaks, related to evil Lodge spirits like Bob.

While the show has some way to go to match the Lucille-swinging brutality of the Walking Dead season 7 premiere, things are bound to get more explosive and tense as The Walking Dead season 8 kicks off.

Plenty of different people have worked on the Saints Row series, despite it always being created by the same developer. The sequel: Saints Row 2 (2008)Fortunately, we live in the reality where Saints Row 2 was made and given a multiplatform release. The fourth game: Saints Row 4 (2013)Saints Row: The Third is a game that wants to be a comic book; Saints Row 4 is a game about video games.

Game of Thrones season 7, episode 5 may have rocked the boat (and then some) with a combination of awkward reunions, hammer-blows, and dragon-petting but the preview for the sixth chapter of Game of Thrones season 7 already makes the Loot Train ambush look like child’s play. If that isn’t a force capable of dealing with the White Walkers then I don’t know what is. Arya and Sansa’s sibling rivalry: over already? Like a hot knife through butter, let’s hope Beric goes to town on those White Walkers

Based on King’s beloved eight-volume series of cosmic gunslinger novels, The Dark Tower attempts to mash the whole sprawling saga into one bite-sized, easily digestible 95 minute stand-alone – one that also pays homage to other King-universe properties. He’s sworn to protect the titular Dark Tower, a rickety splinter of rock jutting out from the centre of the universe that somehow keeps us all safe from the army of fire-monsters lurking just outside of our worlds. There are a few slashes of acti

The fifth episode of Game of Thrones season 7, Eastwatch reigns in both action-levels and budget, delivering a relatively quiet hour of viewing that necessarily pushes the show’s various plots towards their conclusions. When the three of them meet under the Red Keep, it’s an almost warming scene, albeit with a little awkwardness. As a bizarre family drama, Game of Thrones season 7 is handling the Lannister plotline extremely well, and despite them clearly being positioned as the villains, there’

Thus, the show ended on something of a cliffhanger, with fans uncertain over what happened to FBI special agent Will Graham and Hannibal ‘the cannibal’ Lecter. That’s because many of the plot beats in the Silence of the Lambs sequel were touched on in the first half of NBC’s Hannibal, season 3. Season 4 can’t follow Silence of the Lambs exactly, because at the end of season 3, he had already been confined and escaped. Transgender issues were barely talked about, let alone explored with any nuanc

Bow-twanging hero Aloy, flirty fighter Erend, and their enemies from the PlayStation 4 exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn will be available in October, just ahead of the game’s DLC, The Frozen Wilds, in November. Help which involves using her magic Bluetooth headset to uncover secrets and fight massive metal monsters. She’s joined in vinyl form by Erend, a Vanguard of the macho, heavy-drinking Oseram tribe. He’s a bit creepy at first with Aloy, but you quickly grow fond of the mustachioed lout. The mec

Regardless of how you feel about his adventures in the new millennium, few would dispute the greatness of the original Sonic the Hedgehog trilogy (& Knuckles). The ’90s were a wonderful time for our favorite spiny speed demon, and the magical feeling his games gave to kids of all ages has been expertly captured and portrayed in the Sonic Mania opening animation. If you’re just getting caught up, Sonic Mania is simultaneously a re-release of the Genesis games and some wholly new stages, all of wh

Or so goes a Game of Thrones fan theory currently making the rounds. Nestoris also goes out of his way to flatter Cersei and make mention of her paying off the Lannisters’ debt. “Tywin was no fool and he knew that while the Lannisters were in debt to the Bank the Bank had a vested interest in their success. By paying the debt in full Cersei has allowed Tycho to wash his hands of the Lannisters altogether. The irony of this theory is in this case the Lannisters are undone by paying their debt.”

“I think as TV and film sequences are having a bit of a renaissance, the presence of the device elevates the piece as a whole. But what distinguishes a video game title sequence compared to, say, those found in film or television? “What makes video game title sequences so interesting is the fact that they don’t technically need to have them,” says Perkins, “That is to say, they’re usually not a legal requirement. “On your favourite TV show, can you make the main character grab onto the opening c

Despite a chilly reception to Terminator: Genisys (seriously, what was up with that name? ), the Terminator franchise will continue, with filming on Terminator 6 set to commence in March 2018. The info comes from someone who should know – the original Terminator himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger. So is James Cameron going to direct this new installment like he did the first two? Either way, this new film is said to be the start of yet another trilogy (you know, like Terminator Salvation and Termina

The first dress she’s wearing in Pentos is based on the dresses Viserys would see on sex workers and handmaids in King’s Landing. She’s more dangerous than she’s ever been, but in a markedly different way to Daenerys, Arya, or Cersei. Yet the way she dresses in season 7 indicates that she isn’t operating under the assumption that she deserves the throne – unlike Cersei. Just remember her role in the Battle of the Loot Train in episode 4: unlike Cersei she’s not afraid to get into the middle of b

Episode 8, The Law of Nature, has seemingly effortlessly taken the season back to the dreary levels of episodes three and four. It was happily glossed over in the first episode but Adrian’s one line about being bisexual was no accident. Here were some actual feelings arriving out of the mist and they were more than welcome in a sea of leeches and apocalyptic horsemen. This is actually potentially the most fascinating of all the issues in The Mist, even if it’s all been so mishandled. Once again

It’s been over a year since Hello Games’ space exploration game was released, but the new No Man’s Sky Atlas Rises update introduces a ton of new features that really does change the game. Well now you might actually go back there and make a home because Atlas Rises now has snazzy portals to let you zip all around the cosmos. “This is an important first step into the world of synchronous co-op in No Man’s Sky,” reads the official post. It pays to be a nosy parker in No Man’s Sky. For the full ex
