The pairing of awesome music with awesome gameplay footage continues for Starbreeze Studios’ Syndicate. Many of you probably remember the Skrillex-scored announcement trailer for the game. Today, Electronic Arts has dropped another Syndicate trailer, this time focusing on the title’s co-operative gameplay mode (for anyone wondering, the music in the new trailer is a remix version of the Syndicate theme). Elements shown in today’s trailer include close combat kills, armored enemies, and more of that gun that has homing bullets....

Despite the seemingly never-ending fury over the Mass Effect 3 endings, it’s easy to forget that (somewhere) gamers are happily still enjoying playing other fan-favorite titles like Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. Despite mixed reactions to the game’s storyline (which also featured an, arguably, underwhelming conclusion), Uncharted 3 delivered plenty of fun for PS3 players and went on to sell over 3.8 million copies on day one alone. After most people played through the campaign, they quickly found a competent and enjoyable multiplayer as well as co-op components that, due to a lot of post-launch DLC, has managed to stay fresh five months down the road....

Cinema tech developer Christie announced that it has been issued a U.S patent by the U.S Patent and Trademark Office for hardware that will enable exhibitors to stream films directly to the homes of consumers in a way that supports their current business model. In the early months of 2020, governments across the world began imposing strict lockdown measures in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. As a consequence, movie theaters were among the multitude of businesses forced to close their doors until the number of reported cases began to decrease in certain parts of the world, allowing some exhibitors to reopen provided they could adhere to precautionary measures....

Nintendo barely gave us any time to scramble together a Direct recap this morning. Surprise uploading the 25-minute video to YouTube, there were a ton of announcements packed in for stuff no one even saw coming. It was obvious that Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition was around the corner, but a new Clubhouse Games?! If you don’t want to sit through the full video, we’ve done the hard work to recap everything that happened during it....

They don’t recognize her at first. The students who once turned to Frances McDormand’s wearied and weathered Fern for tutoring are now almost walking right by their former educator in an early pivotal scene from Chloé Zhao’s Nomadland. Fern is at their local superstore, there to buy supplies for the beat-up RV she lives in outside. In another life they were neighbors from the mining town of Empire, Nevada. But that place is gone, and today they’re practically strangers, scattered to the wind when they bump into each other....

Our quick take Olympus E-PL1 camera - 4.0 / 5 To recap The third generation Pen offers the distinct advantage of a built-in flash that will inevitably broaden the fledgling Micro Four Thirds range’s appeal to a wider consumer base, as will the lower price point and simplified operation. The negatives are a more obviously plastic build than its predecessors, a smaller LCD screen, reduced light sensitivity and a degree of hand holding that may irk more skilled users....

Loot and build diversity are Outriders’ greatest strengths. Thanks to the mod and crafting systems, players have an absurd amount of control over their character’s behavior. To get the most out of Outriders’ loot system, you’ll need to understand how crafting works. Crafting in Outriders focuses on improving your gear instead of making new items entirely. Every item you find on Enoch can be tweaked and enhanced through the crafting system, allowing you to increase attributes or alter your items’ behavior entirely....

The Trickster is one of the most enjoyable classes in Outriders just because of its fast-paced gameplay. There are a lot of fun options down each of the three trees (Assassin, Harbinger, Reaver) that allow for a sneaky and stealthy playstyle, or a blitz approach with serious close-range damage. We’ve already covered the Trickster in our suggested build guide, but here we’re going to go over the more detailed list of mods that are best for each of the Trickster’s varied builds....

Outriders is a game that tries to adhere to a player’s preferred playstyle. The different classes in the game seem to support this. In Outriders, there are four different classes that you can choose at the beginning of the game, and each of them is perfect for a specific role and style to deal with the game’s quests and challenges. Take the Pyromancer class, for example. The Pyromancer class in Outriders is meant to be a medium-ranged combatant....

Overwatch’s heroes are a diverse bunch with their own skills and personalities. The tanks in the game range from an overly-enthusiastic 61-year-old crusader to an oversized hamster. The same can be said about Overwatch’s support heroes. The support heroes in the game have a variety of different buffs that they could provide to the team, and it isn’t just healing. In the same manner, they also have different approaches to the enemy team, and hence, turn the tides of battle in their own unique way....

This article contains major Moon Knight spoilers. Now that Moon Knight has ended its premiere season (with no word yet on whether there will be a second one), the show finished off with a mid-credits sequence that introduced a personality long awaited by diehard fans of the comics on which the show is based: Jake Lockley, the hidden third personality (also played, of course, by Oscar Isaac) that shares the body of Marc Spector along with Spector himself and Steven Grant....
