Year: 2024

The first clip from the highly anticipated Joker: Folie a Deux has arrived, showing Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker and Lady Gaga’s Harley having a moment while inside what appears to be Arkham Asylum.Harley says to Joker, “When I first saw Joker, when I saw you on Murray Franklin, the whole time I was watching, I kept thinking, ‘I hope this guy blows his brains out.’ And then you did. And for once in my life, I didn’t feel so alone anymore.”She’s referring to the pivotal sequence in the original Joker movie where Arthur Fleck murders Franklin (Robert De Niro) on a live TV broadcast of Franklin’s TV show. In Joker: Folie a Deux, Joker is seemingly on trial for that murder.At the end of the clip, Harley begins to sing “Get Happy” to Joker, and the two join in together just as the lyrics reach the line, “Get ready for the judgement day.” Here’s the clip:

    New CoD: Warzone Map Area 99 Is Where Nuketown Was Born

    Benjamin Greene

    The new Resurgence map coming to Call of Duty: Warzone in time for Black Ops 6–Area 99–just might be the coolest concept for a Call of Duty map in years. This is where Nuketown was born, quite literally, as the map is set on a remote testing facility that acts as a manufacturing center for Nuketowns–yes, plural–as well as some more nefarious products.Area 99 is designed to tell the origin story of Nuketown, and in keeping with the tradition of that map, it’s meant to encourage faster engagements. Alongside a manufacturing facility for the houses, there is a nuclear reactor, a mannequin-assembly center, a pod dormitory for workers, and an underground bunker. That bunker is of particular interest, as it is connected to every other POI and should lead to some unexpected ambushes. There is also a “sneaky zipline” in the Nuketown manufacturing area, though Treyarch didn’t let slip where that is.

    Mondo's New TMNT Figures Will Make You Feel Like A Kid–And That's By Design

    James Harrington

    When Mondo announced its new line of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures, made from soft vinyl, the collection certainly stood out from what other collectible companies are offering up from the franchise. In a market flooded with highly articulated “ultimate”-style figures based on everything from the original comic book to the cult-favorite Coming Out of Their Shells concert tour, Mondo’s bigger, chunkier reimaginings of the original action-figure line were certainly a unique take.When Mondo sent a prototype of its Michelangelo figure to me for review, though, there was something about the toy that made it a more impactful nostalgia punch than just about anything else on the market–even if I couldn’t put my finger on what it was until I spoke with the creative minds behind Mondo.The company’s soft vinyl toys are larger than most of the collectible action figures you’ll find on the market, and with the upcoming release of the Ninja Turtles figures, the reason becomes crystal clear.”You get your nostalgia from the colors and the idea of having a Turtles toy, but there’s a tactile nostalgia,” Mondo Senior Director, Creative and Product Development Hector Arce told GameSpot. “We sai…

    Prime Gaming Is Giving Away Two Lord Of The Rings Games To Celebrate Rings Of Power Season 2

    Sophia Blake

    The second season of Prime Video’s Middle-earth series, Rings of Power, launches on August 29, and to celebrate, you can grab some great Lord of the Rings games for free right now if you’re a Prime Gaming member. Prime members can claim PC codes via GOG for Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor Game of the Year Edition and Lego: The Lord of the Rings, while Middle-earth: Shadow of War will be available through the Amazon Luna streaming service.Arguably one of the best Lord of the Rings games ever made, Shadow of Mordor was an original story set in the grim lands where Sauron had established his stronghold. Released in 2014, players took control of the ranger Talion, who was seeking revenge after his family had been murdered and he was bonded with the Elven Lord Celebrimbor to escape death. The swords-and-sorcery aspect of the game was pretty cool, but its real claim to fame was the Nemesis System that allowed you to create a custom antagonist depending on the actions you took in the game. For example, if a Uruk orc killed you, they’d become stronger, earning themselves a promotion in the process.The Nemesis System also gave you a hit-list of orcs to hunt down, and by exploiting their weak…

    Crimson Desert Shows Off Giant Enemy Crab Boss And More In New Gameplay Videos

    Sophia Blake

    Developer Pearl Abyss has showcased three boss fights from its upcoming open-world action-adventure game Crimson Desert–a masked outcast known as the Reed Devil, the king of a fallen kingdom known as the Staglord, and the massive gem-encrusted Queen Stoneback Crab.The new clips, as revealed at Gamescom this week, show off the variety in Crimson Desert’s boss combat, with each enemy requiring different skills and strategy to fight. The clips also introduce a little more of the world of Pywel, including some of the narrative cutscenes that lead into the boss fights.The first of these bosses, the Queen Stoneback Crab, is decribed by Pearl Abyss as a kind of ambush predator, luring in unwary prey with the promise of valuable gems. “A gem-crusted boulder sits stoic and silent, a dazzling prism of riches,” the developer’s description reads. “Its shimmering splendor lures those intoxicated by greed to a seemingly innocuous hillock. Once they draw near, the Queen Stoneback Crab emerges to swiftly send all trespassers to an early grave.” We can only hope it has a weak point to attack for massive damage.

    AI Can Help Solve Game Industry's Problems, Or At Least Some Of Them, Amazon Boss Says

    Isabella Quinn

    Amazon Games boss Christoph Hartmann has discussed the state of the video game industry, saying he hopes AI can help solve some of the issues. In a new interview, Hartmann said the video game industry needs to “reinvent” itself in part to capture attention away from things like TikTok, and AI can help.”You can keep yourself busy forever and without having to touch a game,” he told IGN.To help get there, Hartmann said the video game industry needs to “overcome our fear of trying out new things” or else it runs the risk of getting “boring,” he said.”We can just not keep on doing the same game over and over. While I know the problem also is you have to, because the financial investment is so big nowadays, and the investment into games and games development became so much, much more expensive in relation to the growth of the overall market,” he said. “The portion of money going to development, it’s so high. Obviously, you take a huge risk, so everyone plays it safe.” Hartmann went on to say that he believes “AI will help” in this regard, though he stressed that AI won’t “solve it all.” But he believes AI can help accelerate and improve game development overall, though the cost…
