This FARGO review contains spoilers. Fargo Season 4 Episode 10 Impact feels dulled right from the episode’s beginning, as we bizarrely begin with a time jump. Instead of having the Fadda brothers’ actions informed by their immediate grief over losing their mother, or Loy’s machinations influenced by the loss of Satchel, we needlessly move beyond these moments. The last episode saw Oraetta feeling the need to flee right away, but instead she just hangs out for a couple of weeks, taking no significant action against Ethelrida?...

When the Fast and Furious franchise started in 2001, it’s doubtful anyone working on it expected they were launching a mythology so trenchant it’d still be going 20 years later in a film with the words “Fast Saga” in its full title. But here we are on the opening weekend of F9: The Fast Saga, and the series is so beloved it’s expected to resurrect the theatergoing box office once more....

This Fear the Walking Dead review contains spoilers. Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 11 I have to say, as far as post-apocalyptic doomsday cults go, the Holding actually seems like a pretty nice place to ride out the end of the world. Situated in a converted underground parking garage, the group has everything it needs, from electricity to water to an abundance of fresh game and produce. Seriously, this is the sort of self-sustaining utopia that Morgan aspires to with his own fledgling settlement....

The day many Destiny fans have been anticipating finally arrived last week as Bungie held the first ever gameplay reveal stream for Destiny 2. Many questions were answered, giving players a look at all sorts of new content from three new subclasses like the Dawnbreaker, Sentinel, and Arcstrider. In addition to the subclass changes, the reveal also gave players a better look at new gameplay experiences located on four brand new locations, many of which are set in the outer rim of the Solar System....

Every good RPG needs a satisfying climax, specifically in the form of bosses. They’re the ones waiting for the players after all the loot piñata they went through. They’re a test of the players’ mettle, and they’re even more intimidating when they’re actual demons. Such is the case with Diablo 2, one of Blizzard Entertainment’s finest contributions to the gaming industry. After players finish the main storyline, the game mostly revolves around killing bosses over and over again for some “phat lewt....

As if the story surrounding Diablo Immortal couldn’t get any stranger, a new wrinkle has entered the fold. Now it appears that someone or some entity is removing dislikes from the Cinematic Trailer for Diablo Immortal on YouTube. Shortly after the Diablo Immortal announcement, the YouTube page for the trailer was bombarded with negative comments and an overwhelming amount of dislikes. Fans were letting Blizzard know that this is not the Diablo product they were hoping for and the developer was working hard to scramble....

If you’ve been playing DOOM Eternal then there’s a strong chance that you’ve died. A lot. This game is not a walk in the park and if you take it lightly, then poor old Doomguy will be reduced to chunks of meat over and over again. And nobody wants that. Even the Doom Slayer needs a little help from time to time and we here at TheGamer are more than happy to assist in the war against Hell....

Dr Disrespect is one of the most famous gaming streamers on the internet.

Warning: Dracula spoilers ahead. Dr Jekyll. Sherlock Holmes. Count Dracula. Between them, screenwriters Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss have dramatised three of the best known 19th century literary characters from the UK and Ireland. Might a fourth be on the way? A crafty Easter Egg in episode three of Dracula may suggest so. Around 56:00 into the final episode, Mark Gatiss’ character Frank Renfield is seen sitting in his car completing a cryptic crossword....

In Dungeons & Dragons, your class is probably the most defining characteristic of any player character. Your class determines the type of armor and weapons you can use well, some of your skills, your hit points, and most importantly, your abilities. These abilities determine what you do in combat, and to some extent how you interact with the rest of the world in other ways. There are many ways to choose your class....

One of the major strengths of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition lies in its powerful class identities. Wizards are the go-to class for versatile spellcasters, rogues with Sneak Attack can one-shot enemies, and fighters… Well, fighters hit things hard. But there’s a little more to it than that. Fighters roll a lot of dice. They have the most attacks out of any class in the 5th Edition Player’s Handbook and their Action Surge lets them double the number of attacks they make in a turn....

The popularity of Dungeons and Dragons and other tabletop role-playing games like Pathfinder and Warhammer has been on a steady increase the last several years. The market for TTRPGs is expanding thanks to the rise of crowdfunding options for indie game designers and the rise of 3D printing as a way for those designers to create unique components for their games. But as was true of most industries and hobbies last year, the COVID-19 pandemic pushed many fans of TTRPGs into the online realm....

When Electronic Arts unveiled Battlefield 3 last year it appeared too good to be true. How could a game look this good, and still be intended for the current generation of consoles and PCs? As it turns out, it wasn’t. At least that’s what EA’s Patrick Soderlund reveals in a candid talk about all things Electronic Arts, including Battlefield 3, DICE’s Frostbite 2.0 Engine, and the inclusion of that engine in Medal of Honor: Warfighter....

Elite Dangerous has been going strong for seven years since 2013, and the most recent expansion may give the game legs for the next seven.

The newest trailer for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey is the first gameplay look, and it is quite stunning....

Before Disney acquired the studio and the rights to the characters returned to Marvel, 20th Century Fox made a good go of an X-Men movie franchise. The series was certainly a mixed bag. The prequel era brought some of the worst comic book movies in recent memory, despite featuring a bunch of the best actors working today, but movies like Deadpool and Logan changed the game with their R ratings and subversions of audiences’ expectations....

Overwatch’s latest hero, named Echo, is finally going live in the game on April 14, 2020.

Although fans are still uncovering new details about Devil May Cry 5 via Capcom press releases and new trailers, some unlikely sources are also shedding light on the forthcoming character action game. This week, new store listings appeared for Devil May Cry 5 that, while covering a lot of the basics of the story and the gameplay, also revealed that the title will support multiplayer. Since nothing has officially been confirmed by Capcom it’s worth treating this news with a careful eye, but usually store listings like these are worth paying attention to....
