  • There is a 99.9 percent chance that Superman is in Justice League, but that .01 percent chance of uncertainty is what Warner Bros. has based its entire marketing plan around. A new poster for Justice League, seen below, brings most of the superhero team together. After Variety reported that Cavill was sporting a mustache in the Justice League reshoots, leading to pandemonium online, Cavill took to Instagram to talk about it. It’s not the only time Cavill has talked about Justice League and made
    How much longer can Warner Bros. pretend Superman isn’t in Justice League?

  • Gundam Versus is about the thrill of gliding, feather-light, in a machine the size of an apartment building. You don’t need to know a thing about Gundam for Gundam Versus to work its magic. Though Gundam Versus ships with more action figures in its toybox than one person reasonably needs, it’s also looking to bleed Gundam fans dry $5 at a time. Wrap-UpEven non-Gundam fans can enjoy Gundam Versus’ well-crafted gameplayGundam Versus has really cut into my fighting game time. Much more than a licen

  • In its debut PC game A Mortician’s Tale, death is not only natural, but something worth utmost respect. It’s an inevitability that deserves as much care as life does. I was uncomfortable with how A Mortician’s Tale presented death at first, as if it were some tragicomedy. That’s not what death was supposed to feel like, I thought; death was supposed to be some eternal sorrow. But A Mortician’s Tale instead turns its focus toward the practice of sending the body off to rest, whether that body is
    In A Mortician’s Tale, death doesn’t have to be a downer

  • Visceral’s Star Wars project represented a huge sunk cost for EAEA’s decision to “pivot” Visceral’s Star Wars project remains remarkable because of the existing investment, however. It sounded like the Visceral title was intended to be Star Wars à la Uncharted. And perhaps it didn’t help that the publisher is also funding Respawn’s Star Wars project, which is a third-person action-adventure title. Streaming is killing the linear single-player campaign starStory-based single-player games are also

  • A major comics talent is making his Marvel Comics debut very soon. Next month’s Squirrel Girl #26 will feature a series of Galactus and the Silver Surfer strips from Jim Davis, the creator of everybody’s favorite depressed cat, Garfield. “In this special standalone issue, Squirrel Girl has convinced, cajoled, and otherwise induced her friends in the Marvel Universe to make comics of their own! This, Squirrel Girl #26 says, is the kind of comic Galactus would make, if he made comics, instead of,

  • Pokémon Go dataminers continue to find signs that the third generation of Pokémon is close to debuting in-game. Members of The Silph Road have shared code that points to the gender ratios of every gen-three Pokémon. That means we can expect female starter Pokémon to be a lot more uncommon than male, for example. The dragons are direct counterparts of each other, with the exclusively male Latios joined by Latias as his female companion. Based on what The Silph Road community dug up, Pokémon Go’s

  • Once again, Denuvo’s anti-piracy protection has been broken by hackers not even a day past the launch of a major game using it. This time it’s South Park: The Fractured But Whole, which launched yesterday. In the case of Sonic Mania, Denuvo was initially blamed for problems that effectively made it an always-online game. There’s always the chance that South Park, Middle-earth or other games get updated with a new form of the protection. Mass Effect: Andromeda was quickly broken after launch back

  • The roster for Dragon Ball FighterZ will include two surprising, old-school villains, according to translated scans of the new issue of V Jump magazine. Nappa is perhaps the brawniest and baldest Saiyan in the Dragon Ball cast. Except, well, Nappa actually was forgotten fairly quickly, dying at the end of Dragon Ball Z’s first story arc. We’ll get access to fighters’ inner thoughts through this part of the campaign, which sounds exactly like the feature we never knew we needed for a Dragon Ball

  • Halo: The Master Chief Collection will be updated with “enhancements” for the Xbox One X, developer 343 Industries announced during a livestream yesterday. The studio offered few details on the upgrades, although it said that The Master Chief Collection’s Xbox One X update will offer more than improved graphics. It is a compilation for the Xbox One of the first four Halo games — Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo 4 — all of which originally came out on the Xbox or Xbox 360. The histor

  • Well, there’s going to be some changes to ultimate charge that will shift balance across a few different heroes. With this patch, ultimate abilities will instantly set a hero’s meter to zero when the button is pressed, which means stopping an enemy ultimate at any point after it’s activated will ensure that it has been spent.

  • The buttons don’t make much sense at first. They start at $49, you can sync many of them together to create more intricate sounds and songs and they work with a good amount of existing gear if you’re already making electronic music. They’re also the perfect toy for people who want to try their hand at making electronic music and are starting from zero. You’ll likely have at least a little something that sounds good in that first hour. You’re making something that sounds good for yourself, and th

  • Oculus’ Hugo Barra announced that the Oculus Rift Touch bundle will now be priced at $399 moving forward. This is the same price as the previous limited time sale, but now acts as the standard price. “Here are the important bits: Oculus Touch is a great method of control for VR, the game library is already somewhat overwhelming in terms of great games, and Facebook is clearly comfortable investing in its own platform to fund the creation of great VR content,” we wrote in our review of the Touch

  • This represents two big pushes for Oculus: the effort to make VR more social and less isolating, and create a more welcoming experience. It’s not a bad idea, but it’s also not new; this is what games like Habbo Hotel and The Sims have always existed as. Nothing has changed between the concept that drove Habbo Hotel and The Sims forward and what Oculus wants to do with Home … except that the virtual, 2D world has gone completely immersive in VR. Oculus and Facebook are pushing the social aspect
