Apple might have only just announced new 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro notebooks, but a new report is already looking ahead to what the company will do with the 2024 refresh of those machines. Apple announced M2 Pro and M2 Max versions of its popular MacBook Pros on 17 January but there is already a scramble to figure out what the machines that replace them will have to offer. Now, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has weighed in with his thoughts and they suggest that next year’s update could be a notable one....

Another week means new challenges and new leaks in the ever-popular battle royale, Fortnite. The game’s latest update rolled out last night which added a handful of new cosmetics, map changes, this week’s challenges, and more, with the challenges going live on Thursday. Season 3 of the massive multiplayer juggernaut, Fortnite, kicked off on June 17 with a ton of changes impacting the map. With any new season, players are eager to upgrade their Battle Passes as quickly as possible with the help of the weekly challenges....

As many ardent Fortnite Battle Royale players would likely attest, one of the most valuable weapons to have on-hand in the free-to-play multiplayer sandbox survival shooter is the Pump Shotgun. Now, it looks as if the developer Epic Games has some alterations in mind for the firearm, as Design Lead Eric Williamson has officially announced some new balance changes that are coming to make the gun that much more useful....

Fortnite has always had a bevy of fun emotes for players to choose from, but players have recently found that a new skin has one of the best emotes yet. Part of the Fortnite Season 4 Battle Pass, Mystique’s exclusive emote features a really cool detail that fits the character well. Mystique, a popular X-Men villain and occasional hero, can be unlocked late in Season 4’s Marvel-themed battle pass. Unlocked all the way at tier 86, Mystique looks exactly like her comic book counterpart as opposed to the often-naked version of the character in the FOX films....

For fans of Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode, it’s been a wild few months for the map and various landmarks located within. After the much-publicized missile launch that took place prior to season 5 kicking off, players have been able to see a giant crack in the sky. Through this rift, all sorts of odd landmarks and changes have come to the map including turning Moisty Mire into Paradise Palms. After the latest patch, it looks like the rift that started it all is finally getting fixed....

Gun Media officially releases a brand new trailer for its forthcoming survival title Friday the 13th: The Game that displays a montage of Jason Voorhees’ murderous moves. With PAX West 2016 in full swing, Gun Media has decided to use the event to unveil a fresh trailer for Friday the 13th: The Game that takes fans back to Crystal Lake with a clip rife with 80s nostalgia. Not only does the footage have grainy, neon VHS effects and a power metal panache, but also, most importantly, it shows off some of Friday the 13th: The Game’s gruesome kills from the title’s main character Jason Voorhees....

This afternoon I finished my first full watch through of Full House and, after a quick cry, I picked up a pint of chocolate and peanut butter ice cream and started my first watch through of Fuller House. Growing up as a major Olsen twin fan, I always wanted to watch the show that gave my two favorite idols their names. But younger me just never got hooked like I always wanted to....

GameStop’s stock price has been on a downward trajectory this week. After a rollercoaster ride last week and an unprecedented rise the week before, it looks like GameStop’s stock price might finally be settling back down back to Earth. GameStop is trading at $110 as of the time of this writing, down from closing yesterday at $225. A large reason for this is the online trading platform Robinhood restricting the sale of GameStop stock to just one per order....

Gears Tactics, the Gears of War-based strategy game by developers The Coalition and Splash Damage, is finally upon fans and many will likely be asking how long the game will take to finish. It turns out that it’s about on par with other strategy games. Now that Gears Tactics is out, those not in the know may be wanting to know the relative length of the game. One report is suggesting that the strategy game, much in the style of XCOM and other real-time strategy games, takes about 25 hours to complete....

Genshin Impact fans recently received confirmation that the highly anticipated Dragonspine region would be introduced later this month, on December 23. Despite this news, and other existing upcoming events, miHoYo has unveiled yet another fun bonus for players to look forward to. As per a recent tweet from the official Genshin Impact Twitter account, Travelers can expect Paimon to introduce a brand new “Quiz Event” on December 18, allowing players a chance to win, at the very least, mora, the game’s standard form of currency....

Genshin Impact has not been shy about releasing new content. Since the game’s release just two months ago, fans have been able to enjoy several new updates, including a major in-game event, new regions, and several powerful playable characters. It seems that with the new year approaching, miHoYo has no intentions of slowing down its pace. While Travelers are fairly confident that one of the next updates is arriving around December 23, 2020, a new Genshin Impact leak claims that players can expect a twofold character update in February, when Xiao and “Weiwei” are allegedly arriving....

Ghost of Tsushima features many duels that require both Jin and the player to fight honorably with nothing but their sword to come out on top. Some of these duels are pretty easy if the player is well prepared, but most would agree that Kojiro from the Kensei Armor mythic quest is one of the hardest. Many players struggle to beat this fight in Ghost of Tsushima, but Redditor sp77ky shared his impressive feat of skill and determination by beating the boss with just one hand....

Starting tonight at 11PM PST, players who signed up for the Ghost Recon: Wildlands closed beta can pre-load before it officially kicks off this weekend. Ubisoft has been one busy publisher lately, with updates, trailers, and beta events in high gear over the past few weeks. Its open-world shooter The Division received some major changes in its 1.6 update; streaming site Twitch announced that Ubisoft’s For Honor would be getting an open beta from February 9 to February 12; and the FPS game Rainbow Six Siege just revealed a demo date, free play weekend, and official release date for its “Operation Velvet Shell” DLC....

Prior to release, The Last of Us 2 director Neil Druckmann stated the game would be divisive and that some wouldn’t like it. It’s clear that this may be an understatement of sorts, as while TLOU 2 releases to raving critic reviews, the user reviews were far less than ideal. That has risen over the past few days, but while the review bombing was one way for disgruntled fans to voice their woes, it wasn’t the only....

With Grand Theft Auto V receiving yet another next-gen port, this time for the upcoming PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, it seems that the highly popular open world game has come to another platform: the music video. Since the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has thrown a wrench into the music industry, preventing music video shoots and live performances, some artists have gotten rather creative to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved....

Following the reveal of Gotham Knights, the developer has confirmed that the upcoming title was never going to be part of the overall Arkham series of games. In a recent interview with IGN, creative director Patrick Redding spoke about how the decision was made early in the development process. “We want this to be the start of something, not just the continuation or the prolonging of something,” Redding begins, “It was always intended as a new franchise set within DC’s Batman universe…then we started arriving at some of these other ideas that allowed us to kind of move in a very different direction and, you know, take the step of… killing Batman....

It’s always nice to see media break stereotypes and let two female love interests get along instead of forcing them into some contrived rivalry. This is probably what the writers of Final Fantasy VII Remake were going for when they erased the slight tension Tifa and Aerith had over Cloud in favor of a pure and sincere camaraderie. It’d be easy to say that they seem to be very good friends and attribute that to how women generally find each other easy to get along with....
