Since E3 2015, where the first gameplay was finally revealed to the masses, EA and DICE have been steadily releasing new information on the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront as the release date continues to approach. The multiplayer shooter promises to feature a lot content for gamers including a slew of multiplayer modes which have been revealed, such as Blast and Fighter Squadron, with three additional modes on the way. Disney and EA were quite busy this past weekend celebrating all aspects of the Disney universe including Star Wars at the D23 event in Anaheim....

Ever since Electronic Arts and DICE announced their Star Wars Battlefront reboot during E3 2013 a couple of years ago, fans of the original iterations in the series have approached any news related to the upcoming title with equal parts enthusiasm and wariness. However, thanks to most of the recent updates as to what the developers are planning to include in the new action game – the reveal of the game’s multiplayer was certainly impressive – it seems as if gamers’ judgments have become less clouded, as a lot of fans are now giving the studios the benefit of the doubt when it comes to Star Wars Battlefront’s possibilities....

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order launched to widespread acclaim among fans and critics in late 2019. Since then, many have been anxiously waiting for news of a sequel from developer Respawn Entertainment, but while many rumors about a Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 have been circulating, the game has yet to be confirmed. Now a new rumor out of the Los Angeles-based studio may be giving fans cause for concern....

A-Wings are fast but fragile, which can make them hard to handle for newcomers. They have the weakest base hull of all the Republic ships in Star Wars: Squadrons, with just a measly 500 health. However, what it lacks in health, the A-Wing more than makes up for in speed and maneuverability. You can use this to your advantage to quickly lose enemies on your tail, or, even better, to stay locked on to your target....

Most players spend a lot of time fishing in Stardew Valley. Like pretty much everything in Stardew and much like in real-life, fishing can be a very relaxing way of spending some in-game time, gaining cash and food along the way. The only problem with fishing is you never really know what you’re going to get. It could be a minnow, or an old boot, or a can, or a stalk of seaweed....

In Stranded Deep, you need to always be mindful of your hunger and thirst. As time passes, you need food and drink to stay alive. This is particularly punishing in Stranded Deep, as you will quickly starve if you forget to look for resources. The Refined Knife is a tool that you can use to gather items, such as meat and coconuts, that you can use to replenish your hunger and thirst....

Fallout developer Bethesda was the most talked-about studio on Reddit between 2013 and 2019, a study has revealed. It appears that Bethesda’s more popular, or more infamous, than many gamers would have imagined, having eclipsed the likes of Activision and Electronic Arts as a subject of online conversation. Previously: Bethesda Cancels Its E3-Like Stream For June Casino.ca took up the painstaking task of scouring the r/gaming subreddit to find out what the gaming community has been discussing since 2013 and, where it pertains to devs, Bethesda came up at No....

Hollywood has spent the last three decades trying to reinvent Superman. After the Christopher Reeve franchise fizzled with 1983’s awkward Superman III and 1987’s truly dreadful Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, there seemed to be a prevailing impression that the character was broken, and that audiences just wouldn’t respond to a traditional interpretation of the hero. Hence nearly two decades of development hell as increasingly unrecognizable Superman screenplays failed to get made, 2006’s uneven Superman Returns, and 2013’s moody and violent Man of Steel and its unfortunate sequel....

Despite a number of major superhero films being delayed to next year in accordance with the spread of the coronavirus, Superman: Man of Tomorrow, a new animated film based around the titular DC hero, will supposedly still be hitting screens this year. Better yet, it seems the cast for the movie has finally been shown off, with a number of significant names heading up the film’s leading roles. According to Entertainment Weekly, the film will see Darren Criss of Glee and Midway fame taking on the role of Superman, while Star Trek and Heroes’ Zachary Quinto will step into the shoes of his arch-nemesis, Lex Luthor....

Incorporating working out into video games has been hit or miss for a long time. Games have utilized movement in order to create workouts that are challenging on the body and fun on the mind. Games like Wii Fit, Dance Dance Revolution, and even Pokemon GO are designed to keep people active and healthy. Now, a new workout game is utilizing VR to create workouts that pull you from reality....

Famous American actor, Adam Sandler, has announced another new movie under his own production company Happy Madison Production, with none other than Kevin James. James is to play Coach Sean Payton for the New Orleans Saints. Sandler is popular for his comedic characters and roles, and his own produced films do not stray far from this genre. Among Sandler’s close friends is Kevin James, who is also very well known for his witty characters in the movies such as Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009), Grown Ups (2010), and The King of Queens (1998-2007)....

It’s Friday, which means that it’s time for Netflix to release another generic action thriller into the wild. This week it’s Sweet Girl, which stars Jason Momoa as a devoted husband and father whose loss of his wife to cancer — which could have been possibly prevented had the big, bad pharma company done the right thing — sends him and his daughter down a dark path of justice. Directed by Brian Andrew Mendoza, Momoa’s longtime producing partner who makes his directorial debut here, Sweet Girl fits the exact brief of the kind of run-of-the-mill thriller, written and shot according to a specific formula and anchored by one big star, which the streaming giant has made into a vast cottage industry....

The influence of Grand Theft Auto 5 and Borderlands on the shape of the game industry is undeniable. Even though Grand Theft Auto 5 doesn’t get many enhancements from next-gen systems, the game will no doubt be just as popular on them as it is on the current-gen. The thing that ties these games together, beyond their massive success, is the fact that their publishers, 2K and Rockstar, are both owned by one company: Take-Two Interactive....

It’s an extremely rare feat when a television series, animated or otherwise, is able to produce thirteen seasons of storytelling. Archer‘s journey has been anything but conventional and the silly spy comedy has experienced enough genre makeovers and stylistic experiments that a return to its espionage roots has been oddly fulfilling. Season 13 comes in after a few seasons of normalcy, yet Archer’s most recent years have provoked more change than ever before in its cast....

Since its creation in 1991, PC game developer Techland has operated fairly under the radar until Call of Juarez was released in 2006, and another first-person genre piece, Dead Island following in 2011. Though its recent sequel Dead Island: Riptide didn’t make the same splash as its predecessor, it isn’t stopping the Polish developer from trying new things. From the looks of the first teaser trailer for their latest endeavor Hellraid, we think they might be onto something....

When it comes to horror, H.P. Lovecraft could be called the father of cosmic horrors worldwide and the maker of the stuff of nightmares and madness. His stories are still told, spin-offs are still made, and people are still terrified by what is in the darkness. Games have been a great way for these stories to be brought to life, and what better time for players to seek them out than around Halloween when spooky is the name of the game?...

Andy Serkis, who plays Alfred Pennyworth in Matt Reeves’ upcoming film, The Batman, has confirmed the film will be embracing a much darker tone compared to previous Batman movies. When asked by LAD Bible if fans could expect a darker, grittier and broodier version of the character and his story, Serkis – known for his portrayal as Gollum in The Lord of the Rings trilogy – replied: “I would say that’s not far from the truth....

Seinfeld’s classic anti-holiday episode “The Strike” has been re-gifted so many times it is almost as annoying as the holiday itself. We’re taking a strike from Festivus, because that non-holiday was only one of the many moments Jerry and the gang destroyed festivities in ways black and white cookies could never fix. Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George (Jason Alexander), and Kramer (Michael Richards), have soiled baptisms, weddings, anniversaries, Thanksgiving dinners, Puerto Rican Day marches, and even Super Bowl parties, which gave birth to the very phrase “re-gifting....

It was a morning full of surprises in Hollywood. Few in the Oscar prognostication pool predicted that Netflix and Edward Berger’s All Quiet on the Western Front would score an astounding nine nominations, dominating not just in the Best International Film category, but also appearing to be a real contender in Best Picture following a string of technical awards. Similarly, after earning a notoriously mixed reception—culminating yesterday in a Razzie nomination for Worst Picture—Andrew Dominik’s Blonde is still an Oscar-nominated film, with Ana de Armas pulling out a surprise nomination for Best Actress....

The increasingly circuitous saga of The Blacklist continues into its eighth season, creating the opportunity to complete unfinished business. The move continues the ongoing saga of enigmatic antihero “Concierge of Crime,” Raymond Reddington (James Spader), the world’s most-wanted criminal who – unbeknownst to the general public – enjoys an immunity deal with the F.B.I. in exchange for leads about his vast array of criminal contacts (the titular blacklist), frequently shadowed by special agent Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone), who, as revealed later in the series, happens to be the daughter he conceived with a deadly Russian spy....
