Nearing the end of chapter two during The Last Of Us Part II, Ellie and Dina find themselves forced to enter the cluster of tunnels below after being chased out of the Channel 13 Tower by members of The WLF. With a total of ten collectibles to find in the underground area, it could be effortless at times to become disoriented and end up on a train leaving Seattle. This section will guide these clicker-hunting badasses through the station to each of the five Artifacts, three Trading Cards, one Journal Entry, and the single Workbench awaiting them....

The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past is still considered one of the best Zelda games ever made, even almost thirty years after it was released. It’s a classic that has stood the test of time and offers an amazing Zelda experience for both newbies and returning players. Collecting Pieces of Hearts all started in A Link to the Past. Hidden all across the overworld, collecting Heart pieces increases your max health....

“You’ll probably find this inspection boring for the likes of you,” a Starfleet official tells Admiral Picard and Captain Riker at the start of the latest trailer for the third and final season of Star Trek: Picard. “Well, we won’t be blowing things up,” he goes on to explain when Picard responds with incredulity. “Or taking or engaging in fire, crash landing expectedly or unexpectedly.” Leaving aside that those things didn’t happen nearly as much in Star Trek: The Next Generation as this trailer seems to suggest, the official’s litany forgets one of the things that excites people most about the upcoming season: the debut of the Enterprise-F, the latest iteration of the ship Captained by Picard and his predecessor James T....

The enduring legacy of Star Wars characters comes not only from the actors or the story but also from the amazing themes created for them by composer John Williams. Just mentioning the names “Darth Vader” or “Rey” recalls soaring strings and punching brass, as iconic as the former’s black mask and the latter’s white robes. But what about Obi-Wan Kenobi, one of the central figures of the first two trilogies? You probably don’t associate his character with a particular music cue, and with good reason....

As many know, Disney struck all legends content from the Star Wars canon when it purchased the franchise and has since slowly drip fed material back into canon. One example of this would be how Grand Admiral Thrawn was brought back into the fold via Star Wars Rebels, but since games published since the acquisition are canon too, they are perhaps the easiest way to re-canonize material. And for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, there’s a ton of things that could be brought back into the fold....

Roughly a year and some change after Streets of Rage 4’s release, developers DotEmu, Lizard Cube, and Guard Crush Games are back with Mr. X Nightmare - a small expansion to the beat-em-up. Making reference to the series’ previous main antagonist, this DLC not only expands the roster with a trio of characters but pays homage to the past with additional retro combat stages for a brand-new survival mode. Tasking players with surviving endless waves of foes in small arenas, you’ll randomly come across stages from all three of the Genesis titles, complete with throwback music and classic sprites....

Subnautica is a fascinating survival game, taking place on an alien world, and based almost entirely underwater. Players will have to balance the usual survival mechanics with the dangers of the deep as they unravel the world’s hidden plot. And indeed, one such mechanic is finding food to fend off starvation, While the alien oceans of planet 4546b are teeming with plenty of fish and plants to eat, players will still have to contend with maintaining their food supplies....

Between Teen Wolf and Gotham, actress Crystal Reed has established herself with characters who hold their own against monstrous men. And as Abby Arcane, the lead on the DC Universe’s new horror series Swamp Thing, Reed trades in werewolves, a penguin, and future Batman for the guardian of the Green. Along with humanoid superhero Swamp Thing, and his human counterpart Alec Holland, Abby Arcane was created by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson for DC Comics....

Telltale’s The Walking Dead proved to gamers worldwide that a studio could focus on an emotional, character-intensive narrative and still produce a faithful, entertaining and addictive experience for players worldwide. With production now shifting to the second season, the studio is looking back on its previous mistakes in an effort to make sure history doesn’t repeat itself – especially in terms of bugs and errors. While the first season of The Walking Dead garnered much well-deserved acclaim, it wasn’t always a smooth product beneath the surface....

In a bid to get people to purchase a bundle of remastered classics, Nintendo opted to go down the route of a limited release with Super Mario 3D All-Stars. Now, you can’t buy it even digitally, so - of course - those with a physical copy are jacking up the prices. There are plenty who are selling their copies for £40-£50, but there are those that have begun to put theirs up for ludicrous amounts such as one user that has begun a bid at £1,000 with the buy-it-now price at £1,900....

The horror genre is always able to engage with audiences in a fascinating, visceral fashion that other forms of content just can’t achieve. This is especially true when it comes to video games since players are forced to become a part of the experience and are immersed into horror more thoroughly than what film and television allow. As a result, there are many extremely frightening video games that know how to creep out their demographic....

The success of the Final Fantasy series can in large be put down to its fantastic cast of characters. While the gameplay certainly does a wonderful job of engaging players and the story a fine job of entertaining them, without these wonderful heroes and villains, the games just wouldn’t be anywhere near as enjoyable. While the series’ antagonists can often be incredibly similar, there’s quite a bit of variety when it comes to the villains....

Some players absolutely love Generation 1 and some aren’t as fond of it. However, regardless of a person’s opinion, most players can admit that there are some very weird Pokémon from the Kanto region. One of the reasons that a lot of the Pokémon were so weird in Generation 1 was because it was when Pokémon first began and the developers weren’t completely sure what direction they were going in for designing all the creatures....

Sony has done some incredible things in the console market and the release of the PlayStation 5 appears to be a game changer. That being said, Sony has struggled to find their footing with the handheld market. Sony turned out some worthwhile entries for their handheld PSP, but it was easy to skip the hardware in favor of Nintendo’s alternative. The PSP found curious angles to spin-off beloved franchises, but there were also plenty of misfires that only spoke to the fact that the handheld wasn’t essential....

While it might be a tad dramatic to call the success of 2018’s Aquaman a surprise, the movie did overcome a stigma from the initial failure of 2017’s Justice League to become the highest-grossing entry in the DC Extended Universe with nearly $1.5 billion worldwide. The studio’s expected knee-jerk reaction to this success—besides a green-light for a sequel—was to develop a spinoff, which led to an early-2019 report about a project centered on the monstrous denizens of dark-dwelling sea kingdom the Trench....

This article contains THE BATMAN spoilers. We have a spoiler-free review here. The Batman has given fans plenty to talk about. But the most pressing topic of conversation may very well be Barry Keoghan’s character, billed in the credits as “Unnamed Arkham Inmate.” Shown only in a brief scene in Arkham Asylum, Keoghan’s character forges a bond with the Riddler (Paul Dano), suggesting that the two of them could be friends....

A “sequel-sized” DLC is headed to Binding of Isaac. Creator Edmund McMillen has revealed that Binding of Isaac: Repentance is 90% complete, in what will be the final expansion in one of the best permadeath games of the past decade. In a blog post on Steam, McMillen provided an update on Binding of Isaac, sharing that the Repentance expansion will be the sequel DLC that fans have always wanted. The game can be added to the wish list on Steam now, as the page just went live....

As Scott N. Brown, general manager of audience measurement at Nielsen, states of the latest results: Yet, that doesn’t necessarily diminish Mulan’s #10 placement, since—unlike the other top 10 entries—it happens to be a premium offering on Disney+, for which subscribers must fork over $29.99 in addition to their subscription cost to view the film, granting the viewer perpetual streaming access. Thus, despite the array of qualitative criticism and its problematic attachment to Sino-American geopolitics, the amount of people who capitulated to the paywall was seemingly significant enough for the film to place in the top 10....

The last generation of consoles saw Sony reap huge rewards from its exclusive first-party games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Spider-Man. Perhaps in response, last year saw Microsoft begin the process of acquiring Bethesda/ZeniMax, the studio most famous for developing The Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises. This had led many fans to speculate that Bethesda’s highly anticipated upcoming game The Elder Scrolls 6 could be an Xbox exclusive....
