Gearbox and 2K have hit the headlines this week with the release of a Borderlands 3 trailer, as well as the news that for owners of the original Borderlands on PC a free upgrade to the Game Of The Year edition is coming. At least, it is if you own a copy on Steam. Anyone who owns Borderlands on a disc appears to be fresh out of luck. The announcement stated that Borderlands would be returning to PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4 in the form of Borderlands: Game Of The Year Edition....

Victory in Hitman 3 is more of a beginning than it is an end. While the story and plot are receiving worthy praise, running through the campaign once is only a fraction of what makes this game so special. It’s truly a sandbox game, meant to be explored and enjoyed over the course of years, not finished in a couple of marathon gaming sessions. If you can’t get enough Hitman, then don’t cut yourself off early just because the main campaign is “finished....

When it first launched, Sony’s PlayStation VR headset was already considered a relatively low-end virtual reality device. Now the PlayStation VR is a dinosaur when compared to more recent virtual reality headsets, and that’s hugely apparent when playing the recently-released stealth action game Hitman 3 in VR. The PlayStation VR struggles with recreating the game’s otherwise impressive visuals, with players having to contend with blurry textures and a shockingly bad draw distance....

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is available to fans now across every platform out there, from current to next-gen consoles. In fact, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s launch was the biggest for the franchise, perhaps due to the appeal of the viking setting and the advent of consoles. With Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Season Pass, the adventuring doesn’t end when players see credits roll. There’s plenty to do in the world now, and when locations like Ireland are added to the game via DLC....

Not all games were created for all audiences. As someone who has grown up with a controller in his hand, I have played games of all sorts, for different demographics and target audiences. Much like feature films, the ratings supply audiences a system for gauging how appropriate or inappropriate a particular title might be. Most parents use the ESRB to purchase or prohibit games for their children. Playing games with a Mature-rating such as Grand Theft Auto, you know exactly what to expect....

It was last August when a movie called The Hunt, scheduled to be released by Universal Pictures in the usually arid moviegoing month of September, became a national news story. Word got around that the film, written by Damon Lindelof (Watchmen) and Nick Cuse (The Leftovers), was a liberal screed about a bunch of political lefties hunting and killing right-wingers in a variation on the old The Most Dangerous Game narrative....

When Destiny 2’s Season of Arrivals began earlier this summer, the update brought new stories, quests, and rewards that players could earn. Now, as the 11th season prepares to end in just over a month, there’s limited time left to acquire what it has to offer, including another Destiny 2 title. Ever since the Forsaken expansion, there have been prestigious titles each season awarded to the most dedicated individuals. This time, the Season of Arrivals title is Forerunner and can be earned until November 10th....

This article contains Zack Snyder’s Justice League spoilers. Let it be said that to the very end, Zack Snyder did it his way. In an era where superhero entertainment, and all other branded media, is shaped by what conference rooms think fans want, Snyder somehow pushed through a transgressive view of DC icons like Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman that was brooding, unsettling… and memorable. Fans certainly haven’t forgotten Snyder’s self-described “deconstructionist” Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice or that it was meant to carry onward into Justice League....

Birds of Prey is one of my favourite superhero movies, and that’s mainly because it has no interest in being one. It does away with the typical structure, the heroes save nobody but themselves, and nobody even has superpowers. MCU titles are becoming increasingly formulaic, building two diametrically opposed characters and making them fight for their ideology, while the DC family Harley Quinn belongs to flits between either copying this style or going ultra dark....

Indie developer Sergey Noskov is known for his mastery over atmosphere and mystery, creating story-driven experiences in gloomy and often unsettling worlds. Noskov’s latest release, In Rays of the Light, released a trailer that offers a glimpse into the developer’s ominous world filled with secrets. In Rays of the Light serves as an official console port of The Light Remake, which launched on Steam last year. The title tasks players with exploring a mysteriously empty landscape harboring secrets and puzzles that hide a deeper story....

Although NetherRealm Studios has intimated that Injustice 2’s main baddie is going to be the Superman villain known as Brainiac, as evidenced by a recently released introductory move set trailer, fans shouldn’t be quick to discount the absolute destructive force in the game’s addition of Darkseid. As a matter of fact, just prior to the clip offering a run down of the Lord of Apokolips’ abilities, Darkseid and Brainiac share a few quips with one another, which results in the latter receiving a brutal beat down....

With iOS 15 Apple may not have change up the visuals all that much, but there’s still plenty in there that’s worth getting accustomed to and tinkering with. Whether you’ve got yourself a new iPhone 13 or you just updated your existing iPhone. Most of the features highlighted are available for all iPhone models running iOS 15, but there are one or two that are limited to the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 series that won’t be applicable to older models....

During an interview with The Electric Playground, the director of Iron Man VR, Ryan Patton, said Camouflaj was initially denied the Iron Man license because they weren’t a “bigger and more accomplished studio.” But against all odds, Jay Ong, the head of Marvel Games, changed his mind and gave Camouflaj the project. During E3 2016, Marvel’s Jay Ong approached Camouflaj and asked if the developer wanted to make a “big, ambitious, and character-focused” VR title based on one of their properties....

2020 was a unique year for one too many reasons, but among the most surprising may have been an unprecedented rise in the price of Pokemon cards. All this meant the decks of cards that were casually thrown in the playground back 1999 could now be considered by some as a real financial investment opportunity. Of course, with prices appreciating anywhere from 300% to 1000% on a year-on-year basis, Pokemon cards have started to draw attention from people or celebrities that one wouldn’t normally relate to the franchise....

A NeoGAF user by the name of Mideon posts what is said to be the game map for the rumored Red Dead Redemption 2, which reveals surprising details about the game. Fans have been waiting for news on Red Dead Redemption 2 for years, but Rockstar Games has remained mostly mum on the matter. While Rockstar’s silence has still not been broken, a NeoGAF user by the name of Mideon has posted what could potentially be the map for Red Dead Redemption 2, offering clues as to what the long-awaited sequel will entail....

If you’ve felt like the recent additions to Xbox Game Pass have been lacking, you’re not alone. In fact, it seems like more and more people have taken to social media and other outlets to share their frustrations with Game Pass and their plans to at least temporarily cancel their subscriptions to the service. While that’s hardly an indicator that the service is in any short or long-term danger, the nature of these recent Game Pass criticisms does suggest that video game subscription services may be more dependent on Triple-A games than some would like to think they are....
