Topher Grace is aware of what a juicy role David Duke is, at least in a Spike Lee movie. Duke is after all a former leader and Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan who’s been one of the most successful—to use such a word—faces of white supremacy after decades of denying the Holocaust and advocating white nationalism and Anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. He even has his preferred choice of president currently in the White House....
With the formal announcement of Diablo 4 finally out of the way, it appears that the leaks involving Lilith as a key player were also correct. As the daughter of Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred, and Queen of the Succubi, Lilith’s history within the Diablo series should not be understated. Long-time fans of the game may recognize the importance of her actions, the Blessed Mother of Sanctuary, but most may not....
Bloober Team, known for horror titles like Layers of Fear and Observer, has revealed that The Medium’s core concept simply would not have worked with current-generation capabilities. Revealed in May, The Medium is an exploration of psychological horror with a heroine who is a medium. Travelling between the world of the living and the world of the dead, her visions direct her to an abandoned hotel in Krakow, Poland. Working on the studio’s “largest and most ambitious project to date,” producer Jacek ZiÄ™ba shed a little light on The Medium in an interview with Xbox....
Billy, The Anointed is not a typical Borderlands 3 boss, as a health bar will not appear atop the screen when a player goes up against him. That said, this BL3 anointed goliath is still one of the most challenging encounters the game has to offer, and players will need to prepare if they hope to defeat him. For those that have already figured out how to beat Katagawa Ball in Borderlands 3, but need some assistance with Billy, the Anointed, this BL3 guide looks to offer exactly that....
Over on the Eurogamer YouTube channel we’ve carved out quite the niche for ourselves when it comes to yelping our way through co-operative horror games. With all the practice we’ve had, it stands to reason that we’d be pretty good at surviving a spirit-based onslaught by now, but how did we fare as a team of ghost hunters when we were pitted against actual players in the role of vengeful ghosts, rather than some clunky AI?...
Now that the Infinity Ward developed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has been out for almost two weeks, players are already beginning to nail down their preferred set-ups and loadouts to overtake the competition online. While 2019’s Modern Warfare brings along decent amount of the series’ roots with it, there are still plenty of completely new and revamped additions to the core gameplay formula. One of these revamped additions is the ultimate killstreak: the tactical nuke....

Everyone wants extra performance from their PC hardware, right? And that’s where technologies like AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), Nvidia’s DLSS and Intel’s upcoming XeSS are all about - essentially allowing the GPU to render at a lower resolution, then either upscaling or reconstructing to the native output of the display. In a sense, this is new territory for PC, where native resolution rendering was for a long time considered the only way forward....

There’s something for all Apex Legends fans in the Monsters Within event....
Striking the right balance when blending two subgenres is a tricky thing. For example, between rogue-lites and Souls-likes. Mixing the punishing and weighty nature of the latter’s gameplay with the run-based, one-and-done mentality of the former is certainly a challenge. This, especially when you consider the love and attention to detail that makes great titles in both subgenres stand out. Arboria, which enters Early Access on May 7, has some issues with its combat and enemy variety, but it’s already doing a fairly good job of combining the two mentioned subgenres — creating an exhilarating game that demands patience....

This Arrow review contains spoilers. Arrow Season 7 Episode 19 It’s always a good day to see Ernie Hudson on screen. Arrow brings in the heavy hitter for a crime-fighting caper episode with a classic feel. This Diggle-centric episode is long overdue and makes excellent use of its guest star, multiple timelines, and the show’s accumulated history, playing out similar themes across multiple generations of fathers, sons, and brothers. Over in 2040, however, we see the unfortunate downside to the future tense, where neither characters onscreen nor writers of the show seem to have adequately learned their lessons, making things feel a bit trapped in amber....

The biggest news heard round the world yesterday wasn’t about politics, or wars, or a zombie apocalypse. It was also not related to gaming. It was the fire which had engulfed the roof of the Notre-Dame de Paris, leading to the collapse of its spire. The moment has led to emotional reactions around the web, and many have pledged their support whether in prayer or material donation. That has also led Ubisoft to pledge their support of €500,000 to aid in the cathedral’s restoration....
