The menacing-looking and highly intelligent Jawas then raid the wreckage of the sail barge at night, quickly figuring out that Boba’s armor could fetch a high price on the market and noticing that Boba was not a droid....

On one hand, it makes sense for Microsoft to put their most anticipated game on the box their flagship console instead of Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5, both of which came out two years ago. Also, this isn’t the first time that Microsoft has put a game on the box of their console way ahead of its release. Case in point, Halo Infinite was the predominant artwork for the Xbox Series X packaging when it first came out....

While neither games have release dates, and technically Stargate: Timekeepers was teased a while ago, the two games got their real debuts just now as Slitherine released gameplay trailers for the former and gameplay teasers and a teaser trailer for Terminator: Dark Fate - Defiance.

But, unlike before, the place is actually a mental health clinic located in the countryside....

It also doesn’t help that Rockstar has chosen to stay mum regarding the entire thing. Fans have become so restless that they’ve resorted to grasping for straws. Even interviews with former voice actors have led fans to speculate that GTA 6 is in the works. However, after hearing Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick at the Morgan Stanley’s Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference, we couldn’t help but consider what he said....

Unlike in previous years where nearly every Dota 2 team could compete in the regional qualifiers for a chance to qualify for The International, for Dota Pro Circuit 2021, Valve restricted the competing teams. This year, the only ones in contention are those who are in the upper and lower divisions of their respective regions. Although this means fewer teams, the competition is tighter than ever, especially since there is only one slot available per region....

While the zombie multiplayer game market is absolutely overflowing - and has been for years and years - with recent popular releases including Back 4 Blood, and larger open world titles with survival elements being among the most common indie titles in the past few years, the undead and traditional MMO gameplay hasn’t really meshed before. In a genre where fantasy and sci-fi RPGs reign supreme, a traditional MMO set in a contemporary, modern zombie apocalypse is a pretty novel concept - and one we’re surprised hasn’t been done more often already....

A recent report by the WSJ claims Netflix researchers have been campaigning about this for a while, claiming that password sharing is eating into the platform’s subscription numbers. “Make no mistake, I don’t think consumers are going to love it right out of the gate,” Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos told investors earlier this month. And that’s the risk this huge gamble brings, as the public’s opinion of Netflix has significantly worsened after record interest during the pandemic....

You’ll have to observe and sneak around the Pokemon in order to catch them....

On top of its beautiful and expansive world filled with gigantic machines, one of Horizon Zero Dawn’s biggest draws is the rich characters that populate the world. It doesn’t hurt that a handful of fan favorites have lent their voices and likeness to certain people in the game. Case in point, Lance Reddick as Sylens, who initially appeared to help out Aloy in her journey only to take a heel turn, as teased in Zero Dawn’s ending....

To put the PS5’s current sales numbers into context, it’s already sold more units compared to the original Xbox and Nintendo GameCube. More importantly, the PS5 has a significant lead over the Xbox Series S/X in sales, which is estimated to have sold around 18 million units. However, while this is already a big win for Sony’s flagship console, the PS5 now lags behind the PS4 over an identical period of time....

The Rock voiced his support in a reply to one of Rogan’s recent Instagram posts, The Hollywood superstar pointed out that Rogan is putting out “great stuff” that is “perfectly articulated.” Although The Rock was not the only one to post a positive reply to Rogan’s 10-minute response to the current situation, his comment is the one that stands out the most.
