Some five years after its original announcement, Telltale Games’ long-awaited The Wolf Among Us 2 has just received a first proper trailer, along with the news it’ll be launching in 2023. The Wolf Among Us 2 has, of course, had an eventful journey to reach this point; the original game - a five-episode story-driven adventure based on Bill Willingham’s Fables comic books - released almost a decade ago in 2013 to much acclaim, and the demand for a sequel was immediate....

2019 seems to be the year of Terminator. Not content to simply have a new film or appear in three video games (Mortal Kombat 11, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and Gears 5), Reef Entertainment has announced that it will be publishing a new game based on the popular franchise. Developed by Teyon, Terminator: Resistance is a first-person shooter based on the original two films and will take place 31 years after “Judgment Day....

Tesla is no doubt pushing the boundaries of what a car can be. The company is taking vehicles to another level, from luxurious electric cars to Full Self-Driving. But, achieving these big plans requires some strange steps, and possibly the weirdest is a simulated San Francisco. This “virtual city” is reportedly being designed from the ground up for their AI Autopilot. © Valeriya Zankovych/Shutterstock.com In order for Tesla to meet their goals of releasing a fully-autonomous version of its autopilot, they need to prepare it for every scenario....

© Robert Way/Shutterstock.com Looking beyond the obvious difference in names, it’s worth outlining the distinguishing factors between these two Model Y trims. How do the two stack up against each other in a full comparison? What about a side-by-side analysis of their respective specs? Are there pros and cons to each trim consumers should know about?

When you think about the Grand Theft Auto series, the first thing that comes to mind might not be the music, but there is no doubt that the radio stations involved in the franchise play a key part in the games. The songs only ever play when you are riding around in a car or motorbike, but there are huge portions of the game when you are doing that and therefore the music is incredibly important as it adds a real atmosphere to the game....

Video game exclusives are great for Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony. It allows them to have bragging rights and may even help sell their consoles. However, it can be kind of detrimental to games, which we will explore in the entries below. Now, if a game releases on multiple systems under the same brand, we still issue it as a console exclusive. For example, a few games on here came out on both PS Vita and PS3....

When you think of multiplayer video games, what do you think of? GoldenEye 007? Halo? Overwatch? Fortnite? Call of Duty? All are (or were) wildly popular, and that’s primarily due to one reason and one reason only - they’re good games. The games contained in this list are not good games. In fact, “not good” is putting it quite lightly, because they are downright atrocious. These games contain a multiplayer component, whether it is the primary or secondary aspect....

Over the years, glitches have become more and more frequent within AAA games – especially among franchises that are getting released on a yearly basis. Most of the time, glitches are harmless and are used purely from an entertainment standpoint. But sometimes, glitches can be very dangerous and harmful to a game’s community as they can often be used to take advantage of other players and even steal items that would otherwise be purchased via real life money....

The Xbox One is a fantastic console that can be used for so many things. Gamers have been playing Xbox games for years, and even though there are many great games on Xbox One, some stand out from the rest. Real-time strategy (RTS) games can be tricky to master and even trickier to get into. They require a lot of attention, planning, and decision-making skills from their players. They aren’t usually the type of game you can pick up and play for half an hour before putting it back down again....

This review contains spoilers. “You know who had a choice? You.” The Affair is a show that, at its core, I truly love. I love its concept. I love its cast. And I love how a simple micro-gesture can change the context of an entire story. As The Affair has gone on, it’s perpetually lost focus and fallen more in love with extraneous mysteries, continually propping Noah up as an unwarranted hero, and knocking Alison down to the point that she’s eventually murdered (although I do think the entirely of Alison’s story is beautifully tragic and circular)....

As a lifelong lover of period dramas and detective games, I was delighted to start up The Case of the Golden Idol and find myself in media res, watching a murder unfold on-screen. There are no explanations, no friendly tutorial pop-ups, and no hand-holding - my favorite (and arguably the best) way to start a mystery. The game’s chapters are made up of brilliant tableaus that tell the tale of the Cloudsley dynasty - one of whom is in the first opening scenario - and how they leave their mark upon a fictional version of 18th-century England....

The team announced that its latest effort, The Endless Mission, will arrive on Steam Early Access on November 14. The Endless Mission is about endless opportunity The trailer below provides a better idea of what players can expect, but their world is, well, endless.

This The Flash review contains spoilers. The Flash Season 5, Episode 11 Cicada is back to buzzing around The Flash in this week’s episode after escaping before “Elseworlds.” And though the villain has worn out his welcome, “Seeing Red” was a largely enjoyable installment with solid emotional beats. After last week’s underpopulated episode, which served to give XS her own mission (while Barry was recuperating in the Pipeline as actor Grant Gustin filmed the crossover), it’s good to have Flash back, as well as Ralph....

Fatal Fury’s Blue Mary will be joining the ranks of The King of Fighters XIV’s diverse character roster with update 3.00, developer SNK has announced. The latest update will include four additional characters in total, although Blue Mary was one of the most requested by fans, said lead producer Yasusuki Oda, in a post on the PlayStation Blog. Oda-san has strong ties to the character, as he was instrumental in her creation for her debut in 1995’s Fatal Fury 3, after which she made the transition to The King of Fighters series in 1997....

The highly anticipated prequel to the Binding of Isaac series, The Legend of Bum-Bo, is now available for purchase on Steam. To commemorate the occasion, developer Edmund McMillen has uploaded a trailer that gives us a quick overview of what Bum-Bo is striving for. Mostly a showcase for the wonderful art style, it does at least show the connection between this and Isaac. It’s also got some great music. While Bum-Bo retains the roguelike spin of Isaac, it does a complete genre shift from its action-heavy predecessor....
