Fortunately, there’s a simple solution that involves port forwarding via a gamer’s router. Gamers have shared recommended fixes on Reddit and YouTube, showing gamers how to port forward their routers and help make the adjustment simple, even for those who may not be technically inclined....

Netflix original movies are like the fast food of the film world; they’re cheap and easy to make, they’ll temporarily fill you up, have a passable taste that’s familiar and unchallenging, but you’ll either forget about the meal or regret the quick fix entirely. Hypnotic, from filmmakers Suzanne Coote and Matt Angel (The Open House), won’t leave you cursing your queue for suggesting this disposable thriller, but it won’t have you under its spell either....

The Pokemon anime and the Pokemon games are very different things. As much as I love the games, I constantly feel like the anime has lessons to offer that their gaming counterparts just aren’t learning from. Whether this is Misty’s arc, the gym design, or the cinematic battles, the list of things Game Freak should be taking from the anime is seemingly endless. The Island of the Giant Pokemon is perhaps one of the least likely things that might get brought over from the show, but it could also be one of the most interesting....

As the retro FPS boom continues to rage on, you’d think that every possible angle of classic games would have been revived by now. How many different takes can you have on a first-person game with guns? Do you go all open-world with it? Do you add some RPG elements and quest logs? Do you put it in a distinctly gothic setting with some fantasy elements? If that description sounds at all like something you’re hoping exists, then 3D Realms’ Graven is likely to capture your eye immediately....

Snoop Dogg may have said a bit too much in a recent Rolling Stone interview when he seemingly revealed that Dr. Dre is working on new music that will debut in a Grand Theft Auto game that some fans sincerely hope will be GTA 6. “I do know he’s making great fucking music,” said Snoop. “And some of his music is connected to the GTA game that’s coming out. So I think that that will be the way that his music will be released, through the GTA video game....

There has recently been a viral gang war taking place within GTA Online between green and purple aliens, and it looks as if the battle has caught Rockstar’s attention. The outfits originally ran players over $330k, but in celebration of the war’s popularity, you can pick both of them up for free right now. The viral event first began when groups of players gathered together wearing green alien outfits, where they would drive around and beat the crap out of others when they least expected it....

In a surprise move, Games Workshop has released the core rules for the upcoming 9th edition of their tabletop wargame Warhammer 40,000. This follows the release date announcement yesterday. The update posted on the Warhammer Community website also features details of two new kits that will accompany the release. This certainly is an unprecedented move, but not surprising given some of the leaks and rumor circulating at the moment. GW has made the right decision by bringing forward the digital download of the core rules....

343 Industries increases the Halo World Championship prize pool to $1.5 million after Halo 5: Guardians players purchase thousands of in-game REQ packs. Despite releasing just over a week ago, Halo 5: Guardians is already setting records and holding gamer attention with its unique gameplay and compelling story. Surprisingly, one of the most popular aspects of the game seem to be the Halo 5: Guardians REQ packs – the in-game card packs that offer players weapons, vehicles, and boosts they can use in multiplayer modes....

343 Industries has undoubtedly made some controversial decisions for the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians that haven’t necessarily sat well with fans. These changes, such as the lack of split-screen, have some worried that the game simply won’t live up to the hype, and will weaken the franchise’s legacy. While some are understandably skeptical, the more we see of Halo 5: Guardians, the more impressive it becomes. The latest gameplay footage further shows that not only does Halo 5 have what it takes to deliver a game that will live up to the hype, it may just surpass it....

In a recent update, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery introduced pets. Fans of the game had been asking developer Jam City to introduce the feature almost since launch and so many were delighted that they can now own their own virtual cat, owl, rat or toad. However, these virtual animals don’t just look rather cute, as players have discovered that they will dispense free energy as well. When players are in their dormitories (an area added with the new update), all of their purchased pets will be displayed around the room....

The announcement that Warner Bros. would be funding the so-called “Snyder Cut” of the Justice League film for HBO Max was shocking, and every reveal about the project since has been that much more surprising. The Justice League Snyder Cut is coming to HBO Max in 2021, perhaps in hours-long episodes, and most surprisingly it’ll do it with zero new re-shoots. According to The Wrap, Warner Bros. approved the Snyder Cut of Justice League so long as no new footage is recorded with the film’s cast....

There is only one collectible in Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice called Lorestones. To collect them, you simply have to focus on each marker. After you zoom in, a memory voice-over from your friend Druth fades in, and he will reveal some Norse mythology. There are a total of 44 Lorestones in the game, and unfortunately, they are missable.

In a surprise twist of events, “Blue Checks” is trending on Twitter today for an exciting reason that’s caused quite the commotion. Blue checks have always been Twitter’s way of differentiating real accounts of prominent social and political figures from fake accounts that would try to steal people’s identities.

Plenty of rumors and teases have been floating around the internet about the next Call of Duty game, though the series may have found an interesting way to tease the next iteration. Word and speculation seems to be leaning towards a Cold War setting, likely as another entry in the incredibly popular Black Ops sub-series. Usually Call of Duty games get their reveals towards the beginning of summer, but since this year has been nothing but unprecedented for video games, the franchise may unveil the game through Warzone....

Earlier this year, Bethesda surprised fans by announcing a follow-up to Wolfenstein: The New Order titled Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus. As expected, the title would catch up with William “BJ” Blazkowicz as he fights to suppress the growth of the Nazi regime following a victory in World War 2. Given how popular and well received Wolfenstein: The New Order was, it’s safe to say that a lot of gamers have Wolfenstein 2 on their radar, but they may not be ready to commit....

Contains spoilers for Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and Star Trek: Discovery. It’s well known that J.J. Abrams, along with many other Trekkies, Trekkers, and people who sometimes watch Star Trek, is especially fond of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and used that film as inspiration for his own take on Star Trek.
