This The 100 review contains spoilers. The 100 Season 5 Episode 6 This season seems determined to keep most of our cast apart – there’s only really been one episode when they were mostly all together, and already they’re scattered again. That separation can often feel like the most tedious parts of a season, since it’s a bit of a waiting game for when the real action can come. At least this season everyone seems to be up to something equally interesting while they’re apart, even if we still wish they were together for the fun of it....

When writing list articles for Den of Geek, I feel a real weight of responsibility. These lists are definitive, and once published become lore not only at Den of Geek Towers but also the world. We take them incredibly seriously, and we’re sure that you understand: these are not meant as mere playthings or subjects of idle disqussion, no. To us, these list articles are nothing less than the breath of god....

The anthropomorphic Pokemon of the Human-Like Egg Group, one of 15 ‘families’ based on breeding compatibility, contains an interesting collection of both powerful and popular Pokemon spanning all eight generations of the series. Though Egg Groups do not have any firmly defined boundaries, with plenty of odd pairings showing up in the series, members of the Human-Like Egg Group are generally defined by their humanoid appearance and characteristics. With five Mega Evolutions and a strong representation from Psychic- and Fighting-types in particular, this group contains a wide variety of powerful Pokemon that any trainer will be happy to add to their team....

This article is brought to you by Horror Channel It’s October! We can wear layers again! We can have far too heated arguments about whether pumpkin spice lattes are the downfall of civilization or are literally just a drink! Kick leaves along the pavement and then stop kicking leaves because there was something wet in that pile just there! It truly is the most wonderful time of the year. But the best thing about October, we can all agree, is that it’s the time to stick some fake fangs in, open a bottle of Vimto (because “I do not drink… wine”) and mainline as many scary movies as you can before the season is over and we move on to arguing about whether or not Die Hard is a Christmas movie....

The Division has been a pretty successful franchise for Ubisoft. The Division 2 is currently sitting at 40 million players total, according to the French publisher’s most recent numbers, so it makes sense for them to want to expand that universe beyond their current offering of just two games. Ubisoft has just announced that they’re making a brand new Division game. The Division Heartland, as the name suggests, will be set in the same universe but “will provide an all-new perspective” along with “a new setting” that will almost certainly turn out to be the American Midwest....

The Elder Scrolls Online ran into a bit of an issue on consoles last week, resulting in problems with its UI while attempting to scroll through menus. A workaround was quickly released to the community, but it sounds like an official fix won’t be arriving until June 8. “Due to certification timing for the upcoming Blackwood Chapter and ESO Console Enhanced, we will not have any more console incremental patches before the Blackwood and Update 30 launch,” ZeniMax Online Studios announced....

Connectivity has come along was since the 1970s when people started getting excited about computers. Back then, they didn’t have Wi-Fi and 3G and 4G were unheard of. The first email was sent in 1971 and after 18 years, there were a million email addresses set up worldwide. In those couple of decades, while people were getting to grips with the “@” symbol, many exciting things were happening. Here we look at the evolution of connecting on the go, from the first mobile phone, introduced by Motorola in 1983, to the launch of the first smartwatch that makes everything from 10 years ago seem like something from the Stone Age....

Prior to seeing The Forest, I had very little knowledge about Aokigahara Forest or its disturbing legacy. Yet, everything I’ve read since about this location has been fascinating. Secluded just northwest of Mount Fuji, Aokigahara (also known as The Sea of Trees) has long been a popular tourist spot with its lush greenery, numerous hiking trails, and even hidden ice caverns. However, it is famous for a more insidious reason too: Aokigahara is also known as the “Suicide Forest” since it is where hundreds, if not thousands, of souls have gone to take their lives....

Over a month on from the release of the highly anticipated The Last of Us Part II and the game is still at the heart of many conversations. Despite being the source of division between fans, the sequel has managed to smash sales records and many fans are still finding lots to love about The Last of Us 2. Reactions to The Last of Us 2 have been all over the place, with many fans praising it as the best game they’ve ever played, while others disliked it to the point of sending death threats to the creatives....

Several weeks ago, Naughty Dog announced that it is delaying the release date of the highly-anticipated game The Last of Us 2 indefinitely. However, players looking for some awesome The Last of Us 2 merchandise would be happy to know that the PlayStation Gear website is currently offering some good deals for game-related items. It is currently unknown how long the PlayStation Gear’s The Last of Us merchandise sale will last, but players should take advantage of the deals while they are still available....

Apart from one or two exceptions, video game adaptations have always been losing propositions, whether it’s Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Mortal Kombat, or Assassin’s Creed. But even successful translations like Netflix’s excellent Castlevania series haven’t gone through the level of scrutiny from the fandom that’s currently aimed at HBO’s The Last of Us. It probably has something to do with the fact that the network is taking on one of the greatest video game stories ever told....

Fans of The Office were devastated at the beginning of the year when NBCUniversal dragged their favorite mockumentary series kicking and screaming off of Netflix and started holding it for ransom on their own much less popular streaming platform, Peacock. But it’s a testament to the power of this show that it’s still reporting strong viewership figures on its new streaming home. For a few seasons in the middle of The Office’s run, it was one of the greatest TV shows ever made....

In Stardew Valley, there are just about two dozen different people you can give gifts to, and most of them have their own tastes. Some people love some things, while others do not. If you’re looking to level up your friendship with someone, though, you’ll definitely want to focus on giving them the gifts they love, as you’ll receive more friendship points than something they just like. Aside from each person’s individual tastes, there are five gifts that are universally-loved, often called the “universal loves” by players....

The growth of Valve has been nothing short of phenomenal. The studio, famed for its creation of the legendary Half Life series, has become much more than a games developer. Valve first created Steam as a platform for the easy distribution of game updates, but the service has since grown to become the go-to platform for digital game releases. Valve has recently moved away from the digital and into more physical products....

Super Mario Maker 2 is looking to prove doubters wrong and establish itself as a true sequel, improving on the shortcomings of the original, while also building on the shoulders of its successes. Some may see it as a glorified port of the Nintendo Wii U title, but the number of features, quality of life improvements, and addition tools are proving otherwise. It seems that the development team focused on creating the ultimate replayable and neverending 2D Mario experience ever....

Do you ever feel nostalgic for the days of Smash 4? Well, probably not. If you do, though, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s latest online tournament is something you’ll definitely want to get on board with. Super Smash Bros Wii U/3DS was a super interesting release. As the name(s) would suggest, it launched for both the Wii U and 3DS, with the latter doing an admirable job of keeping pace with its big screen counterpart....

The next online tournament theme for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has been announced and it involves fighters who use the power of electricity in combat. According to a post on the SmashBrosJP Twitter page, the next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament will run for three days, starting from May 15. Players will only be able to choose fighters that possess an electric-type move in their arsenal. The picture that was uploaded alongside the post shows Pikachu, Hero, Ness, Robin, and Zero Suit Samus, but other characters could also make the cut....

When it comes to the Grand Theft Auto series, the question on everyone’s minds is when the inevitable Grand Theft Auto 6 will be announced. There have been numerous rumors, supposed leaks, and theories surrounding it but none so far have come to any fruition. More recently, though, there have also been rumors of Rockstar Games remastering the PlayStation 2 era GTA games: Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas....

Take-Two Interactive is sticking to their guns when it comes to Red Dead Redemption 2’s release date. We know it’s been a long wait, but that wait at least looks like it won’t be getting any longer. Take-Two’s CEO says the company is sticking to their Oct 26th release date and that nothing will push it back any longer. In an interview on CNBC’s Mad Money, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick wasn’t apologetic when asked about Red Dead Redemption 2 and its multiple delays....

Today, Geoff Keighly presented Gamescom Opening Night Live, which brought with it a ton of new announcements, including showing off more of Little Nightmares 2, the DLC campaign of Doom Eternal, and, of course, new gameplay for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart. There was also a notable indie game presence at the event too, with Keighley shining a spotlight on 12 Minutes and Surgeon Simulator 2. Another indie game to get its moment was Teardown, a title by two-person team Tuxedo Labs that sees players adventure through fully destructible environments and carefully plot intricate heists....
