You’d think the most exciting thing to happen in Counter-Strike 2 today would be its new Rush Hour update, complete with a new “fast-paced” mode, or perhaps the fact that you can now silent reload. But you would be wrong, because Rush Hour has been overshadowed by pet chickens. Chickens aren’t new to CS2, they’ve

You may have qualms about my top picks for changeable Resident Evil villains, but I will die on this hill. Let me tell you why. Donna Beneviento would be the easiest to change, for sure. I could already tell in Resident Evil Village that her heart wasn’t in it, and I think all I’d have

Word comes from Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier, who previously wrote a detailed book about Blizzard’s history based on numerous contacts there. Speaking in a recent episode of the 8-4 podcast (via Resetera), Schreier said: “To your point: yes the Blizzard layoffs are coming and imminent.” Schreier was answering a question from former Polygon journalist Mike
WoW Forever is basically my first time experiencing Blizzard’s MMO for a significant amount of time—that level 13 Paladin rotting away on my retail account for the last eight years doesn’t count—and you know what? Even as someone who isn’t rocking around Azeroth in rose-tinted glasses, I’m having a pretty sweet time. I even surprised

World of Warcraft: Forever has a new two-name system, given it’ll be taking place on one big megaserver—which has a few advantages, like making sure you can typically get your chosen first name without the sheer volume of players snapping it out from under you.

That’s more than Cregger’s hit horror Weapons ($70m) and comfortably higher than any of the previous Resident Evil films. It’s apparently the second-best result for a horror film this year behind the
World of Warcraft: Forever’s beta has been utterly rammed with server issues—issues that I’m pleased to say were fixed in relatively short order, and one I certainly don’t resent anybody for.

I came to Onimusha: Way of the Sword for the sick samurai action, but I stayed for the surprisingly engaging, funny, and heartfelt storytelling. Musashi Miyamoto has made it into my top five all-time favourite protagonists, but the great character development doesn’t just stop with him: Shizuka Gozen, Dokyo, and Sasaki Ganryu all deserve their
"It closes our minds, our hearts, and our horizons." Images and videos shared on social media show a gathering of people with IWGB union banners and homemade placards – flaunting slogans such as “what’s disgusting; union busting” and “404: Rockstar’s respect for workers not found” – outside the Glasgow Tribunals Centre, where the hearing is
