  1. Tonight, CM Punk looks to exorcise his Royal Rumble demons. In last year’s match, he tore his tricep, forcing him to miss a planned WrestleMania bout with Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship. In 2014, he suffered a concussion and wound up legitimately leaving the company the next day (and stepping away… Read more... View the full article

  4. For decades, a war has been raging online and in stores. A fight between massive corporations trying to sell you plastic boxes that play games and their weirdly dedicated supporters. The fight was always silly, but very real and expensive, involving massive companies spending hundreds of millions of dollars on… Read more... View the full article
  5. Overwatch 2 has what Blizzard calls “groundbreaking changes” on the way next month, but before that, it has a smaller, welcome one in the pipeline. Clash, introduced in season 12, is Overwatch 2’s newest game mode. As director Aaron Keller describes it, the mode was inspired by the original hero shooter’s two-point… Read more...

  6. Sniper Elite: Resistance features a heavy focus on stealth, deadly sniper killshots, and brutal takedowns. Perfect for those who love stealth and the thrill of landing the perfect shot. But, uh, you can also earn a trophy or achievement for finding a gnome and snapping a picture of it—and it’s pretty unlikely that… Read more... View the full article
  7. Netflix is known for just dropping hundreds of hours of movies and TV at a moment’s notice, almost daring you to test your limits of unproductivity to finish it all. This week, it did a version of that by laying out its slate of 2025 films set to be released. Out of the dozens of movies that range from the lowlights… Read more... View the full article

But while its campaign is a stealthy good time Read more... View the full article
  12. Look, The Pokémon Company is a giant company that can do whatever it wants. Still, however, one must ask: Is releasing a life-sized posable plush of Gardevoir, the psychic/fairy-type Pokémon who you should never Google without SafeSearch on, perhaps a callous use of one’s power? Is it an example of being so… Read more... View the full article
  13. Back in 2021, modder Lance MacDonald released a patch for playing Bloodborne on PlayStation 4 Pro at 60FPS in boost mode. Sony didn’t seem to notice or care. Until now. Almost four years later, the console maker and publisher of this game hit MacDonald with a DMCA request to have the patch removed from the internet. Read more... View the full article

The game will still be available to play offline, but there won’t be any refunds for players… Read more... View the full article
  16. Where recently it was the case that every newly published comic was immediately optioned for a new Netflix or Amazon movie or TV show, Hollywood appears to have now shifted its obsessive focus onto video games. What were once the barrel-bottom residue of the movie world, video game adaptations have found their feet,… Read more...

  17. We’re only three episodes into Severance season 2and we’ve already seen Lumon complicating child labor laws, Mark Scout (Adam Scott) suspiciously being treated like the most important Lumon employee, and the people of the Mammalians Nurturable who tend to the goats we are all still confused about.

  20. Bodies tear, break, grow, shrink, endure, decay. I occasionally think of myself as a sack of skin transporting around a pure, permanent, irreducible self protected from oblivion by its mortal shell but also transcending it.
