While Horizon: Zero Dawn does a great job of keeping players pushing forward with new quests and story beats, not all of the game’s collectibles are obvious. Power Cells, for example, are tucked away in certain areas of the game, but finding all of them will give players something pretty useful. In total, there are 5 Power Cells to collect in Horizon: Zero Dawn but finding just one will give players a quest called ‘The Armory....
While horror games are not beloved by everyone or appropriate for all age-ranges, they are extremely influential in pop culture. Popular shows have parodied beloved horror classics, and there have even been parody movies about horror tropes, proving how influential horror movies have been to popular culture. Horror video games have had a similar effect on pop culture, but not nearly as far-reaching. Until recently, that is. There has been a resurgence in interest and popularity in horror games that could mean big things for next-gen consoles; in fact, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X horror games could surpass the movie industry in the near future....
It’s hard not to recommend Horizon Zero Dawn to anyone looking for a game about exploration. Horizon Zero Dawn has a huge map that stretches far and wide across all sorts of corners of post-apocalyptic America, full of deadly machines and teeming wilderness for Aloy to explore, but no matter how much ground the player covers, there’s almost always something else to do. That spirit is bound to carry over into Horizon Forbidden West....
However one feels about 11 seasons of The Walking Dead (and the many spinoffs to come), it’s hard to deny that its pilot is a thrilling hour of television. Given that The Walking Dead as a television franchise is now more than 12 years old, has three spinoffs to its name (Fear the Walking Dead, The Walking Dead: World Beyond, Tales of the Walking Dead), and several more to come (The Walking Dead: Dead City and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon to start), it’s going to be really hard to recapture that sense of madcap discovery and menace....

Yesterday, news of people hiding marriage proposals in recently purchased PS5s started making headlines, including around these parts. It’s not exactly the same as going down on one knee while visiting the Grand Canyon or anything, but since we’re all in lockdown, there’s not a whole lot of traveling going on these days. Swapping your proposal plans to coincide with a major entertainment purchase sort of makes sense, I guess....

Well, PAX Prime 2012 certainly kicked off with a bang this morning. At the Insomniac Games panel earlier today, company CEO Ted Price announced a brand new IP called Fuse. So far, all we’ve seen of the game is a single screenshot that depicts a human character and robot locked in combat. Despite the machine’s six orange eyes, it’s clear this isn’t one of the Chimera from Insomniac’s Resistance franchise....
This Into The Badlands review contains spoilers. Into the Badlands Season 3 Episode 13 There’s a scene towards the beginning of the episode where the Magnus of the Black Lotus (Francis Magee) challenges Sunny’s newly revealed long-lost sister Kannin (Eugenia Yuan) with what seems like impossible task: activating her brother’s dark-eyed powers.

In the wake of George Floyd’s murder by police officers, many video game companies have publicly displayed their support for the movement for racial equality and justice. One of the most successful and, perhaps, meaningful displays of support comes from Itch.io, whose “Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality” has raised over $4 million so far. The bundle includes 1,429 games, including Overland, Night in the Woods, Celeste, and OneShot. Although the minimum price is $5, it’s based on a pay-what-you-want model....
Whether you’ve played Batman: Arkham City or not, there is a part in all of us that wants to be Batman. Who wouldn’t? Billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne by day and then Caped Crusader at night? Batman embodies a lot of qualities that many wish they possess.

Gran Turismo 7 might not have a release date, but a currently inaccessible beta test has been found hidden in a dark corner of the PlayStation website. Between the release of the next generation of consoles and the world being gripped by a pandemic for the last 16 months, game launch delays are more prominent than ever right now. The initial slates of both the PS5 and the Xbox Series X were likely a little thinner than both companies wanted them to be, and some games that were expected within the last six months now won’t be here until at least 2022....
One of the best selling points for the Xbox Series X is the console’s extensive backward compatibility support. Bringing four generations of Xbox consoles together in one box, a ton of older games are going to get a new lease on life come November 10, 2020. Sadly, Halo: The Master Chief Collection won’t be one of them, but its extensive updates will land shortly after the next-generation kicks off. Microsoft revealed in a Tweet today that owners of 343 Industries’ six-game compilation can expect a plethora of updates and tweaks to Master Chief’s legacy titles on November 17....

One of the world’s most popular Pokemon is quite easily Mewtwo, the legendary psychic-type Pokemon that served as the final boss in Pokemon Red and Blue, and was also the main antagonist of the first Pokemon movie. Mewtwo has since appeared in countless other Pokemon media since making his debut in 1996. Despite Mewtwo’s popularity, some fans may still be confused as to why the Gen 1 legendary Pokemon is suddenly trending on Twitter, but there is a pretty good reason for it....
