This article contains Tenet spoilers. The Protagonist might be one of the most unimaginatively named main characters of all time, but it’s worth pointing out that he is referred to as “the Protagonist,” which is notably different from being called “the Hero.” Of course it’s not hard to argue he’s a good guy who does good guy things. He is fighting against a gangster who regularly kills people and has trapped his wife in an abusive marriage....

When it comes to Rockstar Games, there’s a few things that fans of the company are sure of: it releases great games and it takes its time getting those games out. The current wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 and the 8-year difference between Red Dead Redemption 1 and Red Dead 2 is evident enough of that. However, there’s also, among other, one more thing fans know: it has become more and more synonymous with open-world games....
Black Friday is almost here, which means tons of video game deals. This is perfect now that both Sony and Microsoft’s next-generation consoles have been released in select territories. While players shouldn’t expect price drops for both the PS5 and Xbox Series X, some retailers will offer these consoles during the holiday alongside discounts to some of the biggest games available right now, and Walmart is definitely one of the retailers to watch....
SOMA is one of those delicious games that have you thinking and re-thinking about it for hours after the credits roll. Or in my case, for years thereafter. While that’s not to say that I’ve been doing literally nothing besides mull over the themes and ideas of SOMA for 5 straight years, it’s certainly a game I’ve spent a considerably long time pondering about. To this day, fans are still dissecting the game and exploring their own stances towards its particularly thought-provoking events....
True believing Christian cults are frightening enough, but antichrist-Christian cults are confoundingly so. The Devil You Know, VICE TV’s six-part documentary series, produced by VICE Studios, moves into its second season with its eyes on the New Age Alien Agenda. Their first season introduced audiences to Pazuzu Algarad, a killer who worshipped Satan. The new installments blur demonic relationships even further. Before QAnon infiltrated the collective unconscious of susceptible seekers, Sherry J....
Since its reveal a few months ago at the Bethesda E3 showcase, new information and trailers continue to shed light on the upcoming horror sequel. Already fans have seen a story trailer for The Evil Within 2 showing how Sebastian Castellanos has suffered in the three years since the harrowing events of the first game. In addition to the many horrific creatures hunting Sebastian, other enemies such as the Photographer present a different sort of challenge....
Releasing just a little over five years ago, Rainbow Six Siege has had a pretty interesting post-launch story. On release, Siege was reviewed as an incomplete game with potential, while many critics were willing to forgive the slight lack of content for the fresh and exciting matches. Siege took environmental destruction to a level that no other game of its kind ever had before, and when combined with the unique operators that each had their own abilities, Siege had a flavor unlike anything else....
There’s a moment in The Gray Man, the new movie from Avengers: Endgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo, in which hell is breaking loose outside a building in Prague (it’s hard to keep track of all the globetrotting in this movie). The building is blowing up; there are heavily armed assassins and local security forces shooting each other to pieces in the square outside; and soon a city tram is hurtling off its tracks and crashing through more vehicles while demolishing a whole city block....
It’s the dawn of the next generation of video game hardware and the speculation is at an all time high. Despite Sony’s recent debut showcase of the PlayStation 5, the lack of one key piece of information has the internet playing a guessing game. Usually at a console reveal, the respective piece of hardware is shown on stage so size isn’t usually up for debate. With Sony opting for a video presentation instead of a live event, the PlayStation 5’s size is cause for debate....
The most recent trailer for the game highlighted the fact that The Last of Us Part 2 is going to be a grim and grisly experience that won’t shy away from violence. Developer Naughty Dog has also confirmed that the game is about “hate,” compared to the first game’s theme of “love.” The Last of Us: Part 2’s dark tone extends to the story and fans could be in for some tragic moments....
In The Last Of Us 2, if Seattle, Washington is the warzone, Jackson, Wyoming is the peaceful home base. It is the destination point for the duo of Joel and Ellie in the first game, but it is the kickoff spot in the next installment. It is a settlement that Joel’s brother, Tommy, and his wife, Maria, started to rebuild again. Considering how widespread the Cordyceps infection is, it’s amazing that this group was able to find a location primarily untouched by it....
The world of The Last of Us is bleak, harsh, and unforgiving. Players may eventually become numb to the occasional happy moment. Its a dark and broken world that many within it have made the mistake of attempting to fix. The Fireflies are one of the driving of forces of The Last of Us series. When they saddle Joel with transporting Ellie across the United States in hopes of saving the world, they inadvertently save the man’s soul....
There are good and bad qualities in everyone, no matter how extreme those traits are. Abby, the protagonist and antagonist in The Last Of Us Part II, is a perfect example of both good and bad. Players have many reasons to resent her throughout the game, but they also recognize that she has many redeeming qualities. It is rare to possess such mixed feelings about an extreme character and not really know what side to take....
The Last Of Us 2 is a very different type of game, in terms of violence, gameplay, and the story, from the first installment. However, both the first and second games are complex narratives that draw from human emotion. They are still both different games and the same at the same time, in terms of themes and stories. However, a distinct difference between the two is who the player plays as....
Star Citizen is the ambitious space exploration title that is currently in development by video game veteran Chris Roberts, via his studio Cloud Imperium Games.

This Star Trek: Discovery article contains spoilers for the Season 3 finale. Would you believe that the finale of Star Trek: Discovery Season references everything from Star Trek: Voyager, to the TOS episode “The Doomsday Machine?” Throughout the entire thrilling DISCO season, 3 finale — “That Hope Is You Part 2,” the series managed to deliver yet another love-letter to Trekkies everywhere. This episode may not have been as overtly nostalgic as “Unification III,” or any given episode of Lower Decks, but it still managed to deliver on a slew of Easter eggs and callbacks; some obvious, and some obscure....
The actors behind Iden Versio, Admiral Versio, and Del Meeko are all back in motion capture according to the actor’s Twitters, but what they’re working on is unknown. Star Wars Battlefront 2 was discontinued in 2020, and many assumed it was to put all the resources into either a sequel for next-gen or the next Battlefield, but the actors suiting up seem to indicate the former. As Reddit user PotatoSlayer2 points out, in isolation, an actor posting pictures of a mocap suit and sharing that they’re doing some work in a voice acting booth isn’t out of the ordinary....
These four tips can help Star Wars Battlefront players soak up experience points, win more matches, and reach the highest levels before the rest of their friends. Star Wars Battlefront has arrived and, despite mixed reviews, plenty of gamers are ready to start powering through the shooter’s leveling system. The game starts players off with the bare minimum in terms of gear, perks, and items; so earning levels and credits is crucial for players who want to experience all that the game has to offer (and look extra cool doing so)....
