Need For Speed made its grand return at the E3 2017 EA Play press conference today, with an explosive gameplay reveal that brought to mind the like of Burnout: Paradise and the Driver franchise, not to mention the Fast and Furious movies. Marcus Nilsson, an executive producer on the game, hopped on stage to pitch Need for Speed: Payback as primarily a revenge story, with a fully-fledged campaign boasting three playable characters known as Tyler, Jess and Mac. Nilson also promised “the most diver

EA announced at E3 2017 that Battlefield 1 will be heading to the eastern front of WW1 this September with its upcoming expansion, In The Name of The Tsar. If you’re a history buff, you may know what this means: the infamous Women’s Battalion of Death from Russia. If you’re not familiar, the battalion was a small corps formed from 2,000 female volunteers. Unlike previous expansion They Shall Not Pass, In The Name of The Tsar does not add any new modes. However, the DLC will add 6 new maps, plus

Winding its way into the conversation between the Doctor and Bill are references which, however subtle, make you truly believe that this could happen. Allying Victorian soldiers with a lone Ice Warrior is a delightful concept, and the Brits redcoats’ acting is spiffing. Nor do we see the softer side of the Ice Warriors. Imagine if the soldiers had found jewels or relics; seeing the Ice Warriors strive to protect them above all else would give them an extra dimension. Goodness might have blossome

The first teaser trailer has arrived for Black Panther and any reservations fans have over the not-an-origin-story-origin-movie will surely be dashed once they feast their eyes on the above. As we’ve already been introduced to Chadwick Boseman’s Black Panther, AKA T’Challa, in Captain American: Civil War, Marvel Studios gives us a glimpse of his mysterious nation of Wakanda in the teaser. Other highlights include seeing The Walking Dead’s Danai Gurira kicking ass as Okoye and getting a first loo

Moonlight and Oscar-night tango partner La La Land may not have much in common, but they are joint high rankers in the art of transcending expectation. Likewise, writer/director Barry Jenkins’ artful, light-footed riff on Tarell Alvin McCraney’s theatre piece In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue – more deceptive impressions – is gentler and more poetic than its heavyweight significance might suggest. The three chapter headings (‘Little’, ‘Chiron’, ‘Black’; all referring to Moonlight’s hero) hum wit

A slew of details regarding Assassin’s Creed Origins has leaked ahead of its (expected) E3 2017 debut. The information comes courtesy of an alleged issue of Game Informer, of which Assassin’s Creed Origins is the cover story. Oh Assassin’s Creed Origins is the next Game Informer cover – https://t.co/ggEGV4rl2x pic.twitter.com/aXFsYfHZC8June 9, 2017It’s possible this is all faked so take it with a grain of salt, but everything seems to check out here.

Another Star Wars Battlefront 2 reveal is set to debut ahead of E3 2017 as part of EA’s special EA Play event, but if you’ve already made up your mind and know you want to pre-order, you probably want to know where and how to get the most bang for your buck. (Blast for your buck? Does the word “bang” even make sense in relation to laser guns? Whether you pre-order Star Wars Battlefront 2 standard edition or *deep breath* Star Wars Battlefront 2: Elite Trooper Deluxe Edition, you’ll get the follo

Star Trek is a series with a long history of actor cameos – a tradition that thankfully sounds like it will continue with the upcoming Star Trek: Discovery. “So many actors are fans,” Kurtzman said. “We literally got a list of them that were like, ‘Here are people who said they want to be on Star Trek.’ Of course, Kurtzman wouldn’t say which actors were on the list; that would ruin the surprise. But Star Trek has featured everyone from Parks and Rec star Adam Scott…To Seth MacFarlane (who will b

The system’s got a built in touch screen for DS games, motion controls for Wii games, and even GameCube games are rumored to arrive. My prediction is that we’ll not only find out about Nintendo Switch’s approach to Virtual Console at E3, but it’ll get a ton of games that day too. We know Microsoft is set to reboot the Xbox One with its upcoming powerhouse of a console, currently codenamed Scorpio. Just look at EA; it’s setting up way the hell over in Hollywood to show off its big games at the EA

Unlike its predecessor, Star Wars Battlefront 2 will explore more than just the original trilogy era of Star Wars history. That’s right, in addition to the original and new trilogy timelines, we’re going back to the prequel era – Separatist battle droids and all. We got the teensiest tease of this with the initial reveal trailer, but it looks like the prequel trilogy will be a major focus for Battlefront 2 at E3. Tune in tomorrow to see the full new trailer for Star Wars Battlefront II. In addit

BioWare’s up to something that isn’t Mass Effect: Andromeda or a new Dragon Age, and it sounds like E3 2017 could finally be our opportunity to see it. First, one caveat: we don’t know that this “new action IP” is Dylan since Wilson never made that connection. EA’s 2017 fiscal year ended on March 31 and its 2018 fiscal year began the next day. But Aaryn Flynn knew what he was doing when he sent that cryptic Bob Dylan tweet out just days before EA’s E3 2017 press conference. For all the updates a

For the first time in the show’s 23-year history, E3 2017 is open to the public. A lot of the coverage you’ll see surrounding E3 2017 this year will be about share values, too. Read more Every E3 2017 Game We Know AboutOne area in which it had remained the same, though, had been its attendance policy. Nintendo no longer has its own E3 conference, preferring a Direct LivestreamAt least, that’s the idea. So, who is E3 really for, and why is it open to the public this year?

So here’s the biggest E3 2017 games you simply can’t afford to miss. This definitely won’t happen:Ares will turn up midway through and kidnap Atreus, who you’ll then have to play as and escape from his heinous lair.

The team at Xbox is biding its time, and pushing all resources into one thing – 4K – because with Project Scorpio on the horizon, Microsoft is preparing for a fight. Microsoft has already been shouting about how it’s making the most powerful home console ever, and we’re about to see what that means when it comes to actual games. Now, Xbox owners will finally be able to join them as they play the best-looking console games ever made. RELATED ARTICLE: If PS4 wants to win E3 2017… it needs another

The Mummy may still be licking its wounds from some vicious reviews, but that doesn’t mean it did everything wrong. It’s managed to squeeze in a pretty cool Easter egg from the 1999 movie, starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz that, could have far-reaching implications for Universal’s Dark Universe. Annabelle Wallis’ Jenny is having a similar fight with one of Dr Jekyll’s lackeys in a library adjoining Jekyll’s office. What with the Dark Universe being a thing now, don’t be surprised to see t

No fancy intro this week: just buy Telesto if you haven’t already got it. It’s great for hurting specific enemies and messing up crowds and basically one of Destiny’s essential weapons. The Titan’s Empyrean Bellicose helmet is similarly useful in a limited way, letting you hover in the air while aiming. As for the Warlock’s Stag helmet, it’s all about whether you want antlers. The weapon bundles are the same as last week, which is no bad thing if you didn’t get them both.
