This article contains spoilers for Pam and Tommy. Hulu series Pam and Tommy makes a compelling argument that the unauthorized release of Baywatch star Pamela Anderson and Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee’s sex tape is one of the most consequential events in early internet history. Back in the days of dial up web surfing, few cultural onlookers had any realistic idea of just how fast something could go viral – particularly when it relates to the prurient lives of celebrities....

In July of this year, which could have been a few months ago or ten years in the future because time has lost all meaning, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo launched his Mask Up America campaign – which included TV spots featuring the likes of Robert De Niro, Kaitlyn Dever, Jamie Foxx, Morgan Freeman, John Leguizamo, Marvel‘s Anthony Mackie, Rosie Perez, Ellen Pompeo and Jeffrey Wright – to increase awareness, encourage people to cover their faces, and to protect each other after New York was hit badly by the COVID-19 pandemic....

Monster Hunter World had collaborated with several other brands and games to bring unique gear into the game. One of the largest collaborations was with Final Fantasy 14.

4/29 Update: This Mortal Kombat 11 bug has reportedly been fixed. Original story follows.

Mortal Shell is a game that is not afraid to wear its inspirations on its sleeve. Born from the legacy of Dark Souls and FromSoftware, the new title from Cold Symmetry is trying to scratch that “maso-core” itch. But while the game has a lot in common with Souls, it also deviates from the formula quite a bit. One area that Mortal Shell tries to mix up is fast travel. Some players might not even realize that there is fast travel in Mortal Shell but there is....

NBA 2K21 is at an interesting place in the series’ cycle. While the games release like clockwork each year, it is not often that an entry in the basketball simulator gets to come out right before a new console generation.

Not all of the additional content for Titanfall is DLC, though. Although there are plenty of packs for players to open up their wallets for, such as July’s Frontier’s Edge content, Respawn Entertainment has also been providing Titanfall owners with a variety of free updates to the title, bringing in additional content and fixing bugs....

When Square Enix and Platinum Games first announced NieR: Automata, a very small but passionate fanbase took note – it was the unexpected sequel to a game in Nier that hadn’t performed particularly well in reviews or financially.

Despite Nier’s failings, Square Enix evidently believed that the universe was worth exploring once more....

Ninja is quite easily one of the most popular video game streamers in the entire world, if not the most popular streamer.
