The Pinnacle Rewards System In Destiny 2 Shadowkeep Is A Frustrating Mess

In Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, something wicked lurks on the moon. No, it’s neither the Hive, nor the Vex, nor the encroaching Darkness. It’s actually the game’s pinnacle rewards system. The pinnacle rewards, meant for Destiny 2: Shadowkeep players looking to grind the endgame and reach the base power level cap of 960, might just be a broken and frustrating mess. Note: To understand what I mean, it’s best to check out our main leveling guide as well as our companion piece for leveling from 950 to 960 base power....

The Sinking City Review A New Lovecraftian Nightmare

At its best, The Sinking City embodies the best of the greatest (or at least most notable) detective games of the last 10 years or so. It’s got the big budget and cinematic cases of L.A. Noire, the supernatural twists of Murdered: Soul Suspect, the attempts at non-linear deduction featured in Return of the Obra Dinn and Her Story, and it even throws in some Eternal Darkness-like insanity mechanics and Lovecraftian elements for good measure....

The remake of System Shock by Nightdive Studios is seemingly aiming for a March 2023 launch according to its Steam page, which lists this window as its release date. This is far from a confirmation, though, and could likely be a placeholder for the real date. But then we have to wonder when we’ll see the actual release date. System Shock‘s remake was announced in 2015, and since then, we’ve had snippets of gameplay here and there....

The Underrated Movies Of 1999

Tenet Will Be Theatrical Release But Other Wb Movies May Not Ceo Confirms

Tenet will be released in theaters. Eventually. While hardly shocking news, there had been some speculation this week after Christopher Nolan’s Tenet abandoned its Aug. 12 release date (the third it’s had scheduled) over just what Warner Bros. has planned for the time-bending epic. But though WB’s previous announcement that the film would not enjoy a “traditional global day-and-date release” confirms the studio is intending to stagger its release around the world, AT&T CEO John Stankey is now making it clear that Tenet will have only a theatrical release… even if other delayed WB films may not....

The Division 2 S Core Mechanics Are Getting An Rpg Overhaul

The Division 2 released last March, and it received some fairly good reviews. We gave it an 8 out of 10. Even though it traded the beautifully desolate New York and all of its snow for the mud and green of Washington, D.C., it continued its predecessor’s focus on fun looter-shooter gameplay. It’s also getting an expansion on March 3, Warlords of New York, which will see players head back to the Big Apple, even if we won’t be seeing any of that pretty snow this time around....
