We hardly knew ye Destinyplayers have gone four months now without the comforting tedium of the loot cave — a dark abyss that would yield decent gear drops in return for shooting at it for hours on end. Understandably,Bungie saidthat’s “not its dream for howDestinyis played.” Well, there’s a new first-person shooter on the market that offers a loot cave:Dying Light. Although, this take is more of a friendly jab than anything....

Try Fallout 1st for free As we told you a few days ago,Fallout 76‘s Bombs Drop Day event takes place this week. It’s a reason to dole out double XP and double S.C.O.R.E. (for getting through the battle pass), and there’s a 25 percent discount at legendary vendors. That’s what was messaged ahead of time. However, things look markedly better now. The Bombs Drop Day event runs longer than previously thought, going from October 20 to October 26; that’s two days more than what Bethesda said last week....

In 2024, one of the most popular and recognizable non-Marvel or DC Comics creations turned 30: Hellboy.

Alien: Romulusis finally out, and you know it’s a trueAliensequel because it immediately weirded out fans and moviegoers alike. Even though it’s currently sitting at81% on Rotten Tomatoes, many are criticizing the movie for its supposed blatant lack of originality. This is the firstAlienmovie to come out since Disney’s acquisition of FOX, so the accusation thatRomulusis theForce Awakensof the series seems fitting. A large part of the new film feels old, like a wacky collage of small higher-budgeted remakes of the best moments in the entire series, but I think that one moment specifically is actually a ripoff of anAlien-unrelated property....
