Ayyy! The WGA and SAG-AFTRA are on strike! It’s because of a lot of reasons, one of which is that studio executives are apparently comfortable withletting their workers go homeless. While Writers Guild of America and the (deep breath) Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists don’t all have the same requests, there is a lot of overlap. Our unions cover different services, but there are a lot of folks in the picket line who are in both....

I have been a Fleabag defender since I first watched it in 2016. It’s one of the most singular, unique pieces of media ever made for television. It’s moving, it’s hilarious, and it ended on a perfectly bittersweet note. Phoebe Waller-Bridge has had a special place in my heart since then, especially after she went on to executive produce the very good Killing Eve. What I don’t understand is why, after these successes, she’s gone on to work on such mediocre, unexciting projects....

Mortal Kombat 1has just revealed a whole host of returning fighters during its first-ever Kombat Kast. We got to see Smoke, Cyrax, Sektor, Frost, andRain. Rain and Smoke are part of the main roster, meaning that they’re playable fighters, while Frost, Cyrax, and Sektor areKameos, meaning that they’ll play a support role. Interestingly, previous leaks claimed that Rain was not a part of the main line-up, and so this reveal seemingly disprovesthe assumed roster, which could mean that MK1 has more surprises up its sleeves....

Naughty Dogcould make a credible claim at being the best video game studio in the world.The Last of Us Parts 1 and 2are some of the most revered games of all time, and unlike other beloved masterpieces likeTears of the KingdomandElden Ring, TLOU is also noted for its moving characters and deeply thematic narrative. In between those two legendary games, the studio casually pumped outUncharted 4, maybe the best action game ever made, and has a storied history throughCrash Bandicootand Jak and Daxter....

Earlier this year, the team behind Dolphin Emulator - a popular emulator that allows PC users to play Wii and GameCube games - announced plansto distribute it on Steam, going so far as to create a listing on the storefront. This ended up attracting a lot of attention, although it also seems to have turned the head of the one company that Dolphin Emulator was probably hoping not to come to blows with -Nintendo....

I’ve got an OLED TV and I love playing games on it. It’s a 55-inch LG C1 Series, which I chose because Gamespot rated it the best 4K TV for gaming, and it’s easy to see why. The 120Hz refresh rate, impeccable HDR, and perfect black levels make it the ideal display for PS5 and Xbox Series X. I just played Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on it and I was blown away by the richness of the colors and the incredible contrast that HDR allows....

Footage ofPlayStation’s Project Qhas been leaked online from various sources and seems to indicate that the handheld will run on a modified version of Android’s operating system. One of the most controversial announcements that Sony has made in recent memory is the reveal of its new handheld, nicknamed Project Q.The device was anticlimactically revealed towards the end of its latest PlayStation Showcase(which in itself was considered a disappointment)and saw a lot of hate for essentially just being a screen with a DualSense attached to itthat could be streamed to, rather than the dedicated handheld that a lot of fans have been asking for....

It doesn’t take a lot for your party inBaldur’s Gate 3to get down and dirty. No, I don’t mean it in that way,but I suppose that’s true as well. Putting that aside for now - hygiene. The Baldur’s Gate 3 gang certainly struggles to maintain it. Thankfully, players have found a solution that doesn’t require resting every five minutes. Turns out, lobbing a bottle of water at someone will clean them off just fine....

Red Dead Redemptionremake rumours have been swirling all week since the game wasrated again in South Korea. Fans pointed out that the rating mentions gore, whereas the original didn’t–in fact, RDR2 is one of only three games to have this descriptor. Then yesterday,Rockstar updated the game’s website, and today, fans discovered that achievements have been updated with an HD lick of paint. This was highlighted by Rockstar dedicated news reporter Ben, and discovered by Spider-Vice and Nikhilmao....

Following yet another discussion on what Silent Hill 2 ending is canonical, series art director Masahiro Ito has claimed that every single ending is canon if you want it to be, even the dog one.Canonicity (which essentially means if a fact, detail, or action is true to an overall story) is something that’s argued about in pretty much every gaming community, but it’s something that gets a whole lot more complicated if the game in question has more than one ending....

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2looks pretty cool.Insomniac Gamesfinally broke cover during this week’s PlayStation Showcase to unveil an extensive gameplay presentation alongside a menacing introduction to Kraven the Hunter. As far as sequels go, it seems to incorporate everything we loved about the first game andMiles Moralesinto a more ambitiously grand superhero adventure filled with action, drama, and all of our favourite characters. Our hero also dons the Venom symbiote suit now, which means he is super-duper tough and grumpy....

Part of what makesThe Legend Of Zeldashine is the exploration. Ever since Link’s first adventure on theNES,Nintendohas consistently made lush fantasy worlds with secrets, colorful characters, and imagination around every corner. It’s liberating to escape the troubles of real life and allow yourself to get lost in the wonder of Hyrule. But just like any good adventurer, you need a way to traverse the land on your journey. RELATED:The Legend Of Zelda Combat Systems Ranked The Hero of Time has quite a collection of travel methods....

I’m an absolute mark for a gorgeous limited edition. After writing about how I wasapprehensive about buying the Starfield controllerbecause I didn’t want to be disappointed if the game wasn’t all it was cut out to be, I went and bought it anyway, dropping a stupid amount of money on its gorgeous red and bronze accents and transparent triggers. I’ve never been much of a collector because I don’t like clutter and I’m quite attached to the money I make, but Xbox controllers are far less painful for me to buy....
