Marvel’s Avengers: Is Spider-Man Coming to Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PC, or Stadia?

Some fans jumped in joy when Crystal Dynamics announced that Spider-Man would be joining the roster of the upcoming action-adventure game Marvel’s Avengers in 2021. But not all Marvel fans were happy with the announcement, especially those who planned to get the game on an Xbox console or PC. As it stands, the Spider-Man DLC is only coming to PlayStation consoles in 2021, meaning that you’ll need a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 edition of Marvel’s Avengers to enjoy this bit of downloadable content. Does this mean that you’ll never be able to play as Avengers‘ Spider-Man on Xbox Series…

Guilty Gear Strive Is Coming to PS5, New Characters Revealed

A handful of representatives from various Japanese video game companies that specialize in fighting games took part in an online roundtable on Friday. Announcements and trailers were expected, but some companies came in empty-handed. Capcom is a week away from its own big event where it’ll announce the next set of characters for Street Fighter V: Champion Edition, so the publisher didn’t have much to say. SNK doesn’t have a trailer for its long-awaited King of Fighters XV (announced about a year ago), but swears that it’ll have news very soon. On the other hand, Arc System Works had plenty…

Marvel’s Avengers: Spider-Man Coming to PS5 and PS4 Versions of the Game in 2021

Just days after Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics confirmed that Hawkeye was coming to Marvel’s Avengers as a DLC character, we now know that Spider-Man will also be joining the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in early 2021 as an exclusive character for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 versions of the game. PlayStation players will get the Spider-Man DLC at no additional cost. In a new post on the PlayStation blog, Crystal Dynamics associate art director Jeff Adams explained that Avengers‘ Spidey isn’t the friendly neighborhood webslinger you met in Insomniac’s critically-acclaimed action-adventure game from 2018 but the studio’s own take…

Taskmaster: the Cult British Comedy Show Coming to Save America

Gloom has several remedies. Jogging, alcohol and the excessive consumption of Kit-Kats each have their merits. There’s a fast-acting fix though that, unlike the other three, is highly unlikely to end in vomiting. Its name is Taskmaster and it is the UK’s happy place.  Since 2015, Taskmaster has aired nine series and one special in the UK, growing from a cult delight on digital channel Dave to a Bafta-nominated, millions-attracting hit about to make its debut this autumn on major broadcaster Channel 4.  But all that’s just numbers. In real life, Taskmaster has done much, much more. Ask anyone who loves it and they’ll tell you.…

Is Ghost of Tsushima Coming to PS5?

Ghost of Tsushima is a brilliant send-off for the PlayStation 4, a Sony console that has enjoyed many big AAA successes since it launched in 2013. Not only is the PS4 the best-selling console of the current generation but it’s also the exclusive platform of some of the biggest game releases in the last few years, including The Last of Us Part 2, God of War, Bloodborne, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Marvel’s Spider-Man. And Sucker Punch’s latest open-world title lives up to its predecessors with an adventure steeped in Japanese culture and inspired by classic samurai stories. With the PlayStation…

Watchmen Sequel Focused on Rorschach Coming From DC

Did you think the continued explorations of the Watchmen universe were going to end with Dr. Manhattan and Superman explaining the DC Metaverse in the pages of Doomsday Clock or Angela Abar taking that step in HBO’s Watchmen TV series? Certainly not. And certainly not in a world that is somehow more confused and even more disordered than the one into which the original Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons was published in 1986. While the HBO TV series was a true sequel to the Moore and Gibbons masterwork, the comic book Doomsday Clock by Geoff Johns and Gary…

Is Ghost of Tsushima Coming to Xbox One and PC?

Sony has been killing it of late with its recent PlayStation 4 exclusives. Both The Last of Us Part 2 and Ghost of Tsushima have received high praise from critics and fans alike, making them two of the biggest games of the year. Unfortunately, only PS4 fans are able to enjoy these two titles at the moment. While there’s a chance these games will also eventually be ported over to the PlayStation 5, players on platforms not made by Sony might be out of luck. As it stands, there’s no word that Ghost of Tsushima will make it onto the…

In a world shaken by pandemic, with hundreds of thousands of dead from a preventable failure of governments around the globe, much of humankind is searching for glimmers of hope in the United States’ electoral politics.

Hope is about the only thing sustaining many of us through these dark days. You will find no hope here. Ernest Cline, nostalgia peddler and author of…

Fallout TV Series Coming to Amazon from Westworld Creators

Amazon Studios and Bethesda have announced a Fallout TV series. The series comes from Westworld creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. It will be produced by Kilter Films. The studios first revealed the project with a cryptic teaser on Twitter before Deadline reported the details. Check out the teaser for yourself: #PleaseStandBy. @Fallout @BethesdaStudios #KilterFilms pic.twitter.com/IEDr7AkVvD— Amazon Studios (@AmazonStudios) July 2, 2020 No plot details were revealed during the announcement, so it’s unclear whether this TV series will be a straight adaptation of one of the games or a new story set in the Fallout universe.

DC on HBO Max: All The DC Movies Coming in July

There’s a TON of DC movies coming to HBO Max in July, but they aren’t necessarily the ones you expect. While the service is still dealing with a number of its most high profile titles still cycling through previously agreed on streaming deals at competitors, they’re bringing in a lot of their lesser known titles to fill in the blanks. One thing they’re doing for the moment is extending the runs of DCEU “favorites” like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League, and Suicide Squad through December. But don’t sleep on the dozens of others on the way. For…

X-Men and Fantastic Four Movies Coming to Disney+ This Summer

Well, it’s finally happening: there will be X-Men and Fantastic Four movies on Disney+. No, not new Marvel Studios productions, sadly (although if we don’t get this pandemic under control soon it might very well be the only way we’ll be experiencing movies for a while), but a number of the 20th Century Fox…ahem…we mean 20th Century Studios…versions of the merry mutants and the first family of Marvel. Disney+ will become the streaming home of the first X-Men movie (which isn’t as good as you remember), X-Men: Days of Future Past (which might be better than you remember), the forgettable…

Animorphs Movie Coming

The dream of seeing Animorphs reach its full potential in live-action is slowly becoming a reality. As announced in The Hollywood Reporter a live action Animorphs movie, based on the popular 90’s book series, is on the way from Scholastic and Picturestart. Animorphs had previously received the live action treatment in the ’90s on Nickelodeon but while there’s been rumblings of a movie for years this is the biggest push we’ve seen towards making it happen. For those not in the know, the Animorphs books followed a group of human teens (Jake, Rachel, Tobias, Cassie, Marco) along with alien Ax…

Tenet: Trailer Pledges Christopher Nolan Movie is Coming to Theaters

They’re not backing down. That is the pledge and also the prestige (to borrow a phrase from another film) behind the second trailer to Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film, Tenet. Still a vague and enigmatic tease of high-concept ideas and teasingly time-bending physics, the second trailer almost confirms defiantly that the first Nolan film in three years will be going to theaters. Albeit without an exact date or even month in the fine print. In his first film since 2017’s Dunkirk, the acclaimed director appears to be challenging (or at least re-contextualizing) our basic understanding of physics in much the same…

New Star Wars Movie Coming From Taika Waititi

While it may be a while before we get a new Star Wars movie, that doesn’t mean that Disney and Lucasfilm are slowing down. Disney has just confirmed the rumors that have been circulating for the last few months: Taika Waititi (Jojo Rabbit, Thor: Ragnarok) will direct a new Star Wars movie. Krysty Wilson-Cairns (1917, the upcoming Last Night in Soho) will co-write the screenplay with Waititi. This isn’t Waititi’s first time around in the Star Wars universe either. He voiced the bounty hunter droid IG-11 on several episodes of the first season of The Mandalorian, and directed the season…

New MST3K Episode Coming This Sunday, A.D.

In the not-too-distant past, Mystery Science Theater 3000 returned with two seasons on Netflix, a comic book miniseries, and an annual live tour. Unfortunately, nothing can last forever as Netflix stopped ordering new episodes, the comic miniseries finished up, and the third incarnation of the live tour had to take a powder due to the stupid coronavirus pandemic. That live tour had been something of a way to keep MST3K active enough off TV while killing the time it takes to allow co-creator Joel Hodgson to find a new home for the series. This Sunday, May 3rd, the MST3K Live…
