Over 500 thousand fake toys, many of which appear to be Pokemon plushies, have been confiscated by the South Korean Customs Service. The toys were caught mid-shipment prior to delivery to various South Korean arcades, commonly known as bangs or e-cafes. They’re typically used as prizes in crane machines, an increasingly profitable industry in South Korea. Authorities valued the toys at over 7.2 billion won, or almost 6.3 million dollars....
Fall Guys 4041 has finally arrived, bringing with it a range of new levels and the highly anticipated Squads mode. Season 4 has seven new levels, just like Season 3 did before it. It also brings cool new costumes, including an Among Us skin that was revealed just prior to launch. Three of these new maps are races. They might not be as punishing as Fall Guys’ survival or team levels, but they can be hard to master....
Now that Death Stranding is now available for PC as well as PlayStation 4, a whole new crowd is finally getting to experience Kojima’s controversial masterpiece. Several fans have gone out of their way to show how much they love the game, and one fan took it to a whole new, kind of creepy level by building a BB PC. In Death Stranding, the main character walks through a post-apocalyptic landscape with a baby strapped to his chest that helps him see ghosts....
The world of Pokemon TCG collecting has exploded in the past year or so, with a renewed hunt for exclusive and rare cards. The main question is just what would you do to get your hands on one? Well, one man took it upon himself to literally cheat his way to get an exclusive promo card in Japan. All of this was part of a joint movie tie-in with Pokemon involving pineapple-flavored popsicle treats....
An eagle-eyed fan on Twitter has spotted a Daily Bugle newspaper in the new Venom: Let There Be Carnage trailer. Below is a story titled, “The Hidden Victims Of Cletus Kasady.” As for the logo itself, it’s the same one used in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man films. However, it can’t exactly be in that universe given that there’s already an Eddie Brock who is dead following the events of Spider-Man 3....
This Fast & Furious Spy Racers review contains no spoilers. There’s something undeniable about Fast & Furious: Spy Racers season 2 (subtitled Rio). No matter how wild the action gets, no matter what weird situations it has its lead characters land in, and no matter how many jokes come off as just plain bizarre, it’s just hard to shake how fun the show is. A few times throughout this second season I felt myself losing interest only for the show to do something that immediately brought it back with full force....
Blizzard is heating up with Diablo 4’s September update, which explores a new skill system and changes to Legendary Items and Enchantment Systems. Game director Luis Barriga and lead systems designer David Kim addressed the feedback they had received from fans - regarding Power and the need for a more in-depth skill system - that may just turn a demon’s frown upside down. Barriga thanked fans for their words of encouragement and positivity towards Diablo 4’s art, cinematics and Sanctuary’s brand-new open world gameplay - a feature that was announced in the last quarterly update....
While, in recent years, beta tests have been seen more as an early demo more so than anything else, there are still some behind-the-scenes metrics being calculated by the developers regardless. Case in point: Battlefield 4, which just recently concluded its private and open multiplayer betas. With the beta now behind us, and less than a month until Battlefield 4 hits store shelves, DICE is hard at work implementing a ton of fixes for their multiplayer experience....
We didn’t even need to wait until this upcoming Friday’s Disney+ Day broadcast to get the first big Star Wars news of the week: Rogue Squadron, the movie being helmed by Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins, has reportedly been delayed from its 2023 release date. THR reports that Jenkins’ other commitments, including Wonder Woman 3, will prevent her from being able to film the first post-Skywalker Saga Star Wars movie next year....
A group of curious and dedicated Destiny gamers may have unveiled the date Bungie plans to release the game’s eagerly anticipated expansion, and it’s a familiar timeframe. Destiny players are an enterprising bunch. Just days after a group of Guardians identified a hidden room in the new Nightfall strike that made it significantly easier, another ensemble of gamers might have uncovered the release date of Destiny’s next expansion. Curiously enough, however, it appears the players who discovered this hidden piece of information buried deep within the game’s lore were aided by a mysterious benefactor who helped point members of the Destiny sub-reddit in the right direction....
Digimon continues to be a beloved and popular franchise even some 20 years since the original Digimon Adventure anime released. As the series returns to its roots with the original cast of trainers and companions in the Digimon Adventure reboot, one of the most recognizable creatures within the entire franchise it getting a new look. As far as Ultimate Digimon go, which is the second to last stage of a Digimon’s evolution, none hold quite as much weight as MetalGreymon....
Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic shutting down large public gathering spaces, theme parks including Disneyland in Anaheim, California have been inaccessible for some time. Disneyland announced its intent to reopen on July 17 earlier this month, but that plan has now changed due to the State of California holding off its theme park reopening guidelines until after July 4. While Shanghai Disney Resort, Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida have all been approved to reopen with new health and safety protocols, Disneyland does not expect to be able to lock down a new reopening date until state governmental guidelines are clear, according to a post by the Disney Parks public affairs Twitter account....
The beginning of Divinity: Original Sin 2 can be one of the longest acts in the game. This is where the player is meant to escape Fort Joy by any means and with whomever they please. There are endless options when it comes to reaching the other side to The Hollow Marshes. But there’s only one path to take if the player wants to ensure everyone’s safety. It may seem easier to just kill everyone for the loot and XP and be on with it, but it’s even easier to casually stroll on by without mass murder and theft....
Survivalists among The Division 2’s eponymous program specialize in ensuring they stay on top of any dangerous situation. In Ubisoft’s The Division series, Survivalists play a vital role given how the Division now has to restore order in post-apocalyptic America after the Dollar Flu outbreak. Interestingly, unlike other Specializations, Survivalists don’t necessarily dish out huge firepower or hide from the shadows to secure their kills. Rather, they have a kit specially-designed to outlast most enemies....
HBO Max has just ordered a series based on the DMZ comic, which revolves around a modern day civil war. Presumably, or perhaps hopefully, the depressing significance of their timing juxtaposed with everything going on in the U.S. right now is not lost on the streaming service. Following an initial order just for a DMZ pilot in 2019, HBO Max has now decided to go all in and expand it to a limited series....
This is largely unprecedented. Doctor Who has never had a Showrunner/Script Editor return to the show in the same role before. The nearest similarities are when Barry Letts returned in an Executive Producer role in 1979 (but that was in an advisory capacity to new producer John Nathan-Turner) and when Robert Holmes returned to the show in the mid-Eighties. Here, though, Russell T. Davies is returning to an Executive Producer role alongside Julie Gardner and Jane Tranter (who were also integral to the show’s success when it returned in 2005)....
Gamescom’s opening night has wrapped up, and while the hype was not high all night, there were some big announcements made.

Titled “A New Power Awakens - Part 2,” this second add-on will follow-up from the first and will see both Goku and Vegeta ascending to a new level of Super Saiyan power…so, basically, it’s Dragon Ball Z. The news was spotted by Siliconera after Ryokutya2089 posted a listing for it....
