This Walking Dead article contains spoilers. If you watched The Walking Dead season 8 finale, “Wrath,” you may have noticed an interesting trend. Rick Grimes had quite a bit to say about “a new world” or a “new beginning.” In fact, the entirety of season eight and its finale seemed to be setting up the arrival of a very different world. A world where not only is there no all-out war against the Saviors, there is no war at all....

I, and most fans of the wildly popular Witcher franchise have no shame in admitting that the romances are one of the best aspects in the game. Instead of going the route of many games like Fallout, Skyim or Assassin’s Creed where romance feels entirely tacked on, The Witcher 3 paints it’s relationships in a complex, very much grounded light. You feel emotion when you hurt a character, and much pride and happiness when Geralt professes his love to the right person....

With its success, Crescent Moon Games (together with MistFly Games) decided to bring the 3D space shooter to PC as Subdivision Infinity DX.

For many of us on PC, Subnautica is one of those indie gems that became quite an experience to behold. That’s probably why many of you will be excited to know that developer Unknown Worlds have announced a standalone expansion — Below Zero. Subnautica: Below Zero We don’t know too many details as of yet except that Unknown Worlds are hard at work in this new venture. The company has mentioned the following:...

I’ve got to hand it to the Superhot Team; they sure know how to build out a relatively straightforward game concept and keep it challenging and entertaining for far longer than one might reasonably think it should be. Superhot: Mind Control Delete began as a free DLC add-on to the original game. It ended up growing into a full standalone expansion that’s about four times the size of the original game....

What’s needed for a game to be declared Souls-like? Brutal melee? Constant failure? A focus on death and rebirth? Estus flasks? Being featured in an Iron Pineapple video? Well, if combat is the key to Souls-dom, then Tails of Iron definitely has that in spades — and a lot of charm to boot. In this game, you’re not the bearer of some curse that ironically makes being unable to die a bad thing....

Season 1 Episode 11 of the Pokémon anime is of the earliest Pokémon episodes and is still regarded as one of the most dramatic moments of Pokémon. A stranded Charmander’s flame almost went out, and it almost died, revealing how fragile Pokémon are. The Fire-type is super effective against Ice, Grass, Bug, and Steel. Unlike some of the previously mentioned elements, the Fire-type shows powerfulness in battle. The following Pokémon have unruly capabilities and can leave a landscape burnt to a crisp in the blink of an eye....

The Steam Deck is redefining gaming, and many early adopters of the console absolutely love it. One of the machine’s strong suits is that it can run thousands of PC games right off the Steam Store. There are so many, in fact, that choosing a game to play can feel overwhelming. © Some rights reserved by Stratageme.com Choosing the best video game for any system is incredibly difficult because opinions vary wildly on what is a good game....

This feature contains spoilers for The Affair season 5. For its fifth and final season, Showtime’s The Affair has made an incredibly ambitious and rather polarizing move. The series about infidelity in Montauk has jumped ahead nearly thirty years to a climate change-ravaged future, witnessed through the eyes of a woman who would not have been born had two strangers not crossed paths in the primetime soap opera’s pilot. With this flash-forward, the steamy drama has also genre-hopped solidly into climate fiction, or cli-fi—a speculative work concerned with the future of our planet....

This article comes from Den of Geek UK. Braveheart, Titanic, Gladiator, Argo, and Pocahontas are all great films, but they’re also all completely useless as history lessons – playing fast and loose with the facts in a way that looks like it might only be beaten by the new Robin Hood: Origins. Hollywood often gets a bad rap from historians, but there are plenty of great movies that manage to stick to the real version of events without coming off like a dry documentary....

It’s Friday! Or is it? Time is a social construct, so I could tell you it’s Wednesday today, and how could you prove me wrong? It’s Friday because it’s the fifth day this week, but when did this week start? Can’t prove that either, I’m afraid. Well, the calendar in the bottom right corner of the monitor says it’s Friday. Who told the computer that it’s Friday? Anyone could change that display in the settings....

Virtual Reality is attempting a comeback on PC with the release of the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive headsets, but it’s taken a while for decent games to appear. After sifting through many, many VR game releases, and suffering weird side effects from some of the games we’ve tried, the titles below are PC Invasion’s choices for Best VR Games on the PC. As more VR titles are released, we’ll be adding the best ones to this list....

Jesper Kyd, the composer of Borderlands, State of Decay, and the Ezio trilogy of Assassin’s Creed games, will return to craft the soundtrack of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (via DualShockers). Anyway, joining Kyd are Sarah Schachner and Einar Selvik. Schachner composed the soundtracks to Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, Unity, and Origins, and has lent her talents to Call of Duty, Need for Speed, and Anthem. I’m a big fan of hers, too....

In Call of Duty: Warzone, you can customize your loadout with weapons, equipment, and more. Perks are a core component of this system, helping you secure the victory. Ghost is one of the most important perks you can use on your Warzone loadout. The perk keeps you hidden on the mini map and it is effective against enemy UAVs and heartbeat sensors. Well, this is how it is intended to work at least....

Here’s the thing. If you’re a Jackbox Party Pack veteran, you know that these games are only as good as your company. You also know that in each package some of the games shine more than others.

“I’ll wait for it to come out on Netflix,” some might say when they don’t want to spend the money on a movie they’re only mildly interested in seeing. Do sentiments like these mean streaming is slowly killing the moviegoing audience, especially now that services like Netflix are producing their own cinematic content? According to Patrick Corcoran, Vice President and Chief Communications Officer of the National Association of Theatre Owners, the answer is no; in fact, he argues that streaming only adds to the home viewing options without subtracting anything from the wholly unique experience of a night at the movies....

When the makers of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic II and Fallout: New Vegas come out with a fresh RPG title, you can bet that we’ll want to check out.
