    Rockstar owner continues to imply GTA 6 is out by March 2025 while saying nothing about it
    Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive seems to really want everyone to understand that GTA 6 is coming out next year, but the company is equally reticent to actually say that out loud.Take-Two has previously said that it expects to achieve over $8 billion in net bookings for the 2025 fiscal year, which runs from April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025. That's up from projections of $5 billion for the 2024 fiscal year we're currently in. That extra $3 billion is a massive jump in expectations

    Behaviour Interactive has fully lifted the lid on the long-awaited Dead by Daylight Alien expansion, confirming Ellen Ripley as the new survivor and revealing a number of new mechanics for survivors and killers alike.The addition that immediately jumped out to me, aside from Ripley sadly looking very little like Sigourney Weaver probably for legal reasons, is the new map area that's only accessible to killers. Seven control stations will be scattered across the new map, allowing killers to go d

    Starfield is getting the mission boards I wish Skyrim had
    There's no denying Skyrim's brilliance, but if I had to pick a fault with it, it's the lack of a quest-giving feature in towns and villages (unless, of course, you resort to mods). Thankfully, that won't be the case for Bethesda's next mammoth RPG offering, as producer Jamie Mallory has confirmed that Starfield will feature mission boards. This was revealed during an interview with Mallory on Bethesda.net, where she spoke about the different aspects of the game she was involved with.

    The Exorcist remains the scariest movie of all time – thanks to William Friedkin
    The Exorcist isn't just one of the most influential horror films of all time – it's one of the most influential films of all time, period. If it scared your mother in 1973, it's still likely to scare you now. Fifty years and hundreds of possession horror movies later, nothing comes close. How did a 1970s horror flick (one without CGI or practical, modern-day effects) withstand the test of time? The answer is a bold director with a daring vision, one who knew exactly what he was doing

    The reveal of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, coming just 12 months after the previous Modern Warfare game, has series fans worried that this is simply going to be a glorified DLC pack.While Call of Duty games have been released annually since way back in 2005, each subseries typically gets a two- or three-year break between entries in order to allow the developers to build some meaningful improvements over the previous title.

    Vampire Survivors' blend of roguelike elements and auto-attack action against waves of increasingly deadly and more numerous enemies makes it simple to pick up and nearly impossible to put down. It's been widely celebrated, beating out heavyweights like Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarok to claim BAFTA's Game of the Year award, and even Xbox head Phil Spencer has had a hard time tearing himself away from it.

    Upcoming Game of Thrones spin-off Snow most likely won't include a fan-favorite character, judging by the latest update. The series is set to focus on – you guessed it – Jon Snow, and will be set after the events of the notorious Game of Thrones season 8, making it something of a sequel. Kit Harington will reprise his role as Jon Snow himself (AKA Aegon Targaryen, you might remember). Liam Cunningham, who played Davos Seaworth in the fantasy show, has given a disappointing
