Marvel Studios’ Black Widow will introduce Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While movigoers widely assumed the character is intended to take on the Black Widow mantle from Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff, Pugh appeared to be less certain when discussing the possibility of reprising her role in future Marvel films. A decade after making her first appearance in Iron Man 2, Johansson’s Black Widow will finally take the lead as the primary protagonist of her own standalone film....

Gears of War tells the story of Marcus Fenix and his fight for humanity’s survival against the relentless Locust. The game is full to the brim of heroism, tragedy, shotguns to the face, and chainsaws to the neck. Humanity’s death toll is high, but you can pay your respects to those they’ve lost by picking up mementos from fallen comrades, in the form of COG tags. The tags can usually be found near a Crimson Omen, the Gears of War logo....

First announced last year, Genshin Impact will soon be officially launching for consoles and mobile devices. While Genshin Impact initially drew comparisons to Breath of the Wild, the two games share little besides aesthetic. Genshin Impact’s story, it seems, follows a different track from Breath of the Wild, almost to an extreme. A few things can be confusing about Genshin Impact upon first viewing, but it is now very clear what the game is....

It’s time for another Kickstarter round up as we look at some of our favorite tabletop games announced over the last couple of weeks. Café Chaos I have to admit that this is not one that I was aware of until it was brought to my attention by my daughter.

Ghost of Tsushima is an open-world game set on the island of Tsushima and it’s one of the best games to platinum. Sucker Punch doesn’t make the player do anything too tedious like collect 100 feathers or replay the game on the hardest difficulty. Trophy hunting in Ghost Of Tsushima is about fun, not the grind. Ghost of Tsushima trophy hunting is highly recommended because it engrosses the player with the beautiful world and it guides them to a deeper playthrough....

One of the more useful mobility options in Ghost of Tsushima is the grappling hook, as it aids Jin in scaling walls, swinging across gaps, and more. Since there are some missable items in Ghost of Tsushima, many fans want to make sure they get a hold of the grappling hook before it’s too late. Ghost of Tsushima is split into three acts, and progressing too far into the story makes certain items unobtainable until the end of the game when free roam is enabled....

Sony’s upcoming God of War exclusive for the PlayStation 4 is making some dramatic changes, including cutting the cinematic camera cuts and sudden QTEs classic to the franchise. Every God of War fan can likely remember a cinematic sequence featuring Kratos slaughtering a foe, camera jumping to capture exceptionally violent angles, with QTEs maintaining the player’s attention action to action. The new God of War is taking a different approach, one no less filmic and hopefully more artful....

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has had its say, at least in terms of what it thinks is worthy of consideration for the best in film and television in 2020. Coming later in the year than normal due to COVID-19, it was after Groundhog Day when the full list of Golden Globes nominees was announced. And among them there were some happy surprises… and some significant snubs. At a glance, the most surprising omission is the absence of Delroy Lindo’s name in the “Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama” category....

Football fans who tuned in to EA Play earlier today got their first look at FIFA 20, and it may have given veteran FIFA fans a wave of nostalgia: EA Sports is putting in a FIFA Street-style game mode called VOLTA.

Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 14 is one of the most popular MMORPG’s available at the moment, offering players a host of enjoyable and exciting content such as the main scenario quests, dungeons, duties, raids, and side quests, to name just a few.

Square Enix has officially revealed when the Monster of the Deep VR experience for Final Fantasy 15 will be made available. The content is set to make its debut worldwide on November 21, almost one year after the base game released in 2016. While the concept of a VR spin-off of Final Fantasy 15 is sure to excite fans of the Square Enix franchise, it’s important to point out that this experience is built off a small piece of the main game’s gameplay: the fishing mini-game....

Having sold over one million units, Sony’s PlayStation VR headset has been a rip-roaring success and so it only made sense for it to be at E3 2017 in a big way. What few expected though, was the announcement of Final Fantasy 15 fishing DLC for the headset. In a teaser trailer at the big event, Sony officially unveiled Final Fantasy 15’s Monster of the Deep. This is no ordinary fishing game, as some of these catches have some seriously grizzly scales that would put Magikarp Jump to shame....
