Anyone currently taking a break from Grand Theft Auto Online for whatever reason might want to consider getting back in for the next few days, because there’s a free reward in store for all GTA Online players if they’re able to beat the week-long challenge of stealing billions in in-game money. The aptly-named Heist Challenge has been going on since Thursday, inviting the community to work together towards amassing a grand total of GTA$100 billion by taking part in any Heist Finale from The Fleeca Job to the Diamond Casino Heist by November 18....

As if he didn’t have his hands full directing Thor: Love and Thunder, Next Goal Wins, and a Star Wars movie, developing a TV version of Time Bandits, playing Korg in the MCU, and working on reboots of Akira and Flash Gordon, Taika Waititi is taking on yet another project: Our Flag Means Death, a swashbuckling comedy series for HBO Max. Set in the 18th century, Our Flag Means Death will loosely follow the life of Barbadian pirate Stede Bonnet, captain of the ship Revenge, who was nicknamed “The Gentleman Pirate” because he was a semi-wealthy landowner before a midlife crisis led him to a life of crime on the high seas....

Now that filming has ended on the upcoming Netflix series The Witcher, all fans can do now is patiently wait for the show’s release on the streaming service. Until then, there will be plenty of new details and previews that will steadily trickle out to entice audiences. One of these these early glimpses might have just come from Henry Cavill, star of the series, on his Instagram, where he poses with an ebony-colored horse that many believe to be The Witcher’s reliable steed, Roach....

Console gaming has been so very good to us all in oh so many ways. The games we play matter more to us than some of the human beings that we exist alongside, because games never lie to us or move to Texas. The only downfall is that there may, in fact, be too many games to play, and while Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo battle to be the best, we the consumers are the ultimate winners....

This article contains spoilers for the His Dark Materials Season 2 premiere. In this age of an increasingly fractured viewing audience, it’s unlikely that a TV show will reach the heights of Game of Thrones, but HBO does seem to be intentionally courting the same fantasy-loving audience with His Dark Materials. So far, it doesn’t seem to be working, and there are many, many differences between the two series that could explain U....

Hogwarts Legacy is Avalanche’s upcoming RPG set in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, taking place around a century before the events of the books. Based on its trailer, players will be taking on the role of a Hogwarts student in the late 1800s as they take classes, make new friends, explore the grounds, and take care of fantastic beasts. Since Hogwarts Legacy takes place in the late 19th century there has been some speculation among Harry Potter fans that the game could feature Albus Dumbledore as an NPC, who would have been a student at Hogwarts around that time....

Picture this. It’s 2000. You’re sitting in your pajamas, munching on some waffles and waiting for Pokemon to come back from its commercial break on Kids WB. You’re hit with the usual ads for cereal, The Emperor’s New Groove, and X-Men Evolution. Then, something different comes on. A promo for a show you’ve never heard of. A deep mysterious voice describes magical cards unleashing chaos on the world. You’re hit with quick cuts of a boy and girl fighting off magical creatures....

Falcon and the Winter Soldier is racing toward its conclusion, and in the process it is thoroughly squandering Karli Morgenthau’s potential. It’s almost impressive that the show was able to build her up and then completely tear her down so rapidly. Karli Morgenthau could have been one of the MCU’s all-time great villains, but it feels like she’s forever doomed to obscurity because the universe is too afraid of grey areas....

When it arrived in cinemas exactly 45th years ago in 1976, The Omen was a big hit. Much was made of the religious prophecy element of the film—indeed, lots of people still think bits supposedly from the Book of Revelation are real. “When the Jews return to Zion and a comet rips the sky and the Holy Roman Empire rises; then you and I must die. From the eternal sea he rises, creating armies on either shore, turning man against brother, ’til man exists no more” is pure fiction, from the mind of writer David Seltzer....

Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 is a strategy game where players need to keep track of many different resources in order to build up their empire and amenities are one of the most important ones. Newer Civ 6 players may find that their citizens are demanding more amenities in order to upkeep happiness. Citizen happiness in Civilization 6 is very important, as it affects overall production and can lead to rebellions occurring that spawn numerous barbarians if it gets too low....

Lara’s always been incredibly fashionable, but the size of her wardrobe in Shadow of the Tomb Raider borders on ridiculous. In total, she has 65 different outfits and items of clothing to wear, many of which offer special bonuses and buffs. Those wishing to unlock them all will not only need the Definitive Edition of the game but also save files from the two previous games in the reboot trilogy. Not all of them are worth the effort, but some can make your playthrough a hell of a lot easier thanks to the special benefits that they grant....

I am absolutely thrilled that Pokemon is finally giving us a proper open world game next year with Pokemon Legends Arceus, and like so many Pokemon fans, my mind is awash with the possibilities. I’ve already explained that I think it could be Pokemon’s Rogue One - AKA the best Star Wars movie - and that it’ll be a little more Genshin Impact, a little less Breath of the Wild. With red hot takes like that, you know you can always trust me when it comes to Pokemon opinions....

Watch this insane Warzone player kill four squads to achieve warzone victory. It’s really hard to win in Call of Duty: Warzone. Assuming all squads have a full three members and everyone is at roughly the same skill level, your odds are one in 50–which is to say, not exactly great. Those odds get even worse if your two team members are down and you’re left alone to slog it out against four squads of enemies....

Call of Duty games, like any other, can have several glitches and bugs that plague the game. Lately, you hear about the bugs and glitches that can be found in Call of Duty: Warzone, such as the teleportation bug, but there is one in Black Ops - Cold War that is causing players a lot of headaches—people are playing against completely invisible enemies. This kind of bug has been seen on Warzone and was the reason that helicopters were temporarily removed from the game....

Marvel’s Iron Man VR lets players take control of the armored hero in virtual reality, and of course, that comes with a lot of neat moments. One of Iron Man’s most iconic techniques, the unibeam, is available in the game, but using it can be a little tricky at first. Even the most seasoned PlayStation veterans probably had a bit of trouble adapting to the PS Move controllers used for PSVR, as even though the button layout follows the same pattern it can be a bit difficult to get used to....

The United States is becoming more self-aware of its history, or at least, more people are willing to acknowledge it. With that in mind, the depiction of the first Thanksgiving feast is often portrayed in media under a more positive light. The pilgrims happily settle into the “New World,” and decide to hold a feast to celebrate. They invite their best friends, the Indians, who are grateful for their new neighbors and bring them a nice fat turkey as a present....
