Despite some unevenness in its later seasons, Westworld still created some truly exceptional science fiction television episodes. A prime example is Season 2, Episode 8, “Kiksuya.” This episode uniquely shifted away from the show’s usual format and main storyline, dedicating almost an entire hour to exploring the inner world of a character who had previously been on the periphery. While it took a risk by deviating from the established formula, “Kiksuya” is arguably the most emotionally powerful episode of Westworld, achieving this by effectively blending the show’s complex backstory with meaningful character development.

Insider Gaming reports that Ubisoft is currently working on at least one more Assassin’s Creed remake. The specific game being remade isn’t known at this time. This remake is part of a larger plan for several more remakes Ubisoft may create in the future, depending on how well Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced performs. If Black Flag Resynced is successful, both critically and commercially, Ubisoft likely plans to release more remakes of older Assassin’s Creed titles.

Okay, let me just say upfront: every single story in this crossover special was fantastic. Honestly, I think this might be the strongest of the four Marvel/DC team-ups we’ve gotten this year. But even with all that goodness, a reviewer’s gotta rank things, right? It was seriously tough! One minute I was completely engrossed in a classic, old-school adventure, and the next I was loving the surprisingly great chemistry between Supergirl and Ghost-Spider. It wasn’t easy putting this list together, but keep reading to see how I’d rank the stories in Marvel/DC: Spider-Man/Superman #1.

Funko is releasing seven new Toy Story Pop! figures, including favorites like Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and Bullseye. They’re also introducing some new characters: Lilypad the tablet, Smart Pants the potty training toy, and Blaze’s Pig – Bonnie’s friend’s organic pet pig. A particularly eye-catching figure shows Blaze’s Pig playfully (or maybe a little mischievously!) holding onto Jessie’s arm. Pre-orders begin on Monday, April 27th, at 9am PT. You’ll find most of these figures at Entertainment Earth or Amazon, but if you want Blaze’s Pig, you’ll need to order directly from Funko.com. Otherwise, check Entertainment Earth or Amazon after the release to complete your collection.

Ever since its announcement, the game has strongly reminded people of Mass Effect with its third-person shooting and emphasis on choices that affect the story and characters. Early signs suggest it’s also developing into a really promising game.

That’s just a taste of what’s included! The presentation also showcases the game’s new open-world features – including a flying enemy – along with details from the developers about the story and how it’s told. There’s a story trailer, the game’s system requirements, and a lot more. It’s a comprehensive reveal and should give you the best look at the game yet.

A source responding to discussions about the PS6’s and a competing project’s custom processors claimed Microsoft isn’t customizing the graphics processing unit (GPU) this generation. Despite this, the upcoming Xbox GPU will still offer features similar to current AMD graphics cards, like Neural Arrays, due to its use of the RDNA 5 architecture.

If you saw the First Light reveal during State of Play, you likely noticed how resourceful Bond is. Each location offers unique ways to gather intel – you can chat with people at bars or simply listen in on conversations. Then, you can decide how to proceed: sneak around undetected, use Bond’s charisma to walk right in, or combine both approaches.

In a recent interview with ComicBook, actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II discussed how Denzel Washington’s performance in ‘Man on Fire’ inspired his own work on the series. He called it one of his favorite films starring Washington. Abdul-Mateen II explained that he focused on building a strong foundation for his character, rather than comparing himself to previous portrayals. “I wanted to figure out what I loved about the role and what I wanted to bring to it,” he said. “When I’m being authentic and enjoying myself, and I feel successful, everyone benefits.”
