Hideo Kojima has revealed that Death Stranding will have a “Very Easy” mode. “Normally there’s only Easy Mode, but we added Very Easy Mode for movie fans since we have real actors like Norman, Mads, Lea starred in,” said Kojima via Twitter. “Even Yano-san who never completed the 1st stage of PAC-MAN, was able to
This The Terror review contains spoilers. The Terror Season 2 Episode 5 Last week’s episode of The Terror: Infamy was a turning point, and it feels like the season as a whole has finally come into its own with “Shatter Like a Pearl,” an exciting and scary episode that focuses in on the series’ most
Stephen King is a master of the short story, able to dish out horror tales to make your skin crawl, astounding sci-fi, and even literary reflections aimed at more “sophisticated” readers. He’s done it all, with no sign of stopping. Although I’ve had the tough task of picking 16 of my favorite King horror tales
A new camera hack reveals that the ghostly figure Lisa, which terrified many players in Hideo Kojima’s P.T., was actually behind you the entire time. In case you aren’t familiar with P.T.

There are two things that make Wonder Twins #7 really stand out. Its storytelling elegance, and the way it juxtaposes delighting in its own lowbrow humor while also finding grace in those silly jokes. Mark Russell and Stephen Byrne’s book started out as a six-issue mini about the Super Friends twins, whose previous greatest character development
Capcom has launched a new website for the next Resident Evil game, and early rumors surrounding the project are absolutely fascinating. The website itself reveals that the game will be called Project Resistance (unless that proves to be a working title) and that we’ll see more of it at the 2019 Tokyo Game Show on
This Preacher review contains spoilers. Preacher Season 4 Episode 7 The buildup to the final episodes of Preacher have been, quite frankly, packed with a lot of crazy stuff. For example, Jesse Custer died last week, and he’s buried in the Australian outback this week, much to the chagrin of Cas and Tulip. Granted, on Preacher, death is
Fortnite seems to be gearing up for another movie crossover, with the appearance of ominous red balloons in the game seeming like a fairly massive clue that It Chapter Two content is coming to the iconic battle royale game. Epic Games hasn’t yet announced the Fortnite/It Chapter Two crossover, but it does seem like a match
The following contains spoilers for GLOW season 3. GLOW’s spectacular, infectiously energetic first season was surprisingly devoid of LGBTQ characters. Yet in the intervening seasons, it has cultivated queerness in its storytelling in a way that feels organic, honest, and in line with the show’s sensibility. One of the best ways it does this is by
The Madden NFL series has brought in more than $3 billion in revenue for EA over the last three decades. In that time, the game has transcended both the video game industry and even the man who originally lent it his name. “Madden” to most people these days is not a legendary head coach and
USA Network was never known for having the sort of prestige dramas that cable networks like FX and AMC have routinely produced, but after the success of idiosyncratic psychological thriller Mr. Robot and anthology mystery series The Sinner, that perception is starting to change. Briarpatch, the new drama series adapted from Ross Thomas’ crime/mystery novel
With It Chapter Two, screenwriter Gary Dauberman returns to finish the job than he and director/co-writer Andy Muschietti started in 2017, when they adapted one half of Stephen King’s 1,100-page novel for the screen.

Release Date: Sept. 6, 2019Platform: XBO (reviewed), PCDeveloper: The CoalitionPublisher: MicrosoftGenre: Third-person Shooter If 2016’s Gears of War 4 was the Star Wars: The Force Awakens of the franchise, a sequel hellbent on feeding our nostalgia for the original, then Gears 5 falls squarely in The Last Jedi territory, a follow-up that branches out from an established
Droids is a tragically forgotten piece of Star Wars culture. Taking into account that the show has basically been disowned, in part because it’s incredibly dated, this cartoon about two droids wandering around desert planets getting into trouble isn’t likely to get the acclaim it deserves anytime soon. Which is funny. Droids happens to be an influential
Michael Clayton and Nightcrawler producer Jennifer Fox has made a deal with Euphoria‘s production company, A24, to develop a new adaptation of Ursula Le Guin’s best-selling Earthsea books for TV (via Deadline).

This Killjoys review contains spoilers. Killjoys Season 5 Episode 8 “How exactly do you plan on turning these violent felons into freedom fighters?” Let’s be honest; “Don’t Stop Beweaving” probably doesn’t make the list of best Killjoys’ episodes. That said, as usual, there’s still a lot to like about a chapter that flounders a bit
Shared universes are apparently no longer restricted to Marvel and DC blockbusters, at least that’s the notion streaming service Hulu was embracing last December, when it started plans for television series adaptations of multiple John Grisham novels. That’s right, folks, Hulu was conceiving a live-action franchise that was to be called The John Grisham Universe!

The gravity-abused life of iconic stuntman Evel Knievel (1938-2007) will be chronicled by USA Network, which has ordered a limited series, titled Evel.

This Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance review contains no spoilers, except for some information that was presented in the series’ trailers. It is based on all ten episodes of the debut season.

Margaret Atwood’s classic dystopian novel The Handmaid’s Tale was released in 1985 and was adapted into a TV series for Hulu in 2017. Atwood’s long-awaited Handmaid’s Tale sequel, The Testaments, will be released on September 10, 2019. It definitely won’t take 32 years for that to be adapted. Deadline reports that MGM TV and Hulu
Deadly Premonition 2 was quietly confirmed during the loaded Nintendo Direct that also featured Overwatch, the Jedi Knight games, and SNES games coming to Switch Online. While it may not be quite as high-profile as some of those announcements, the fact that we’re getting a sequel to Deadly Premonition is one of the most pleasant surprises
Disenchantment Season 2 (or, as it’s being billed, “Part 2,”) is coming to Netflix very soon! Netflix was apparently enchanted enough with Disenchantment, since it gave the Matt Groening animated series an early order for Season 2 of the series, also setting up a release strategy that will see episodes released all the way through
Superpowered stories tends to focus on the external powers more than the internal when it comes to powers. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry. (Bruce isn’t talking about the emotional repercussions of pissing someone off here.) Enter The

Amazon’s mysterious – purportedly billion-dollar-budgeted – Lord of the Rings TV series will take place before the events of Peter Jackson’s movies. Setting the tone for the prequel to J.R.R.
