Daniel Radcliffe is the best at what he does, but what he does isn’t very nice. Because it dashes people’s expectations, apparently! The former Harry Potter star has carved out a solid career in adulthood, choosing odd roles ranging from a haunted doctor in The Woman in Black to a farting corpse in Daniels’ Swiss Army Man, to the king of parodies himself Weird Al Yankovic for the upcoming Weird: The Al Yankovic Story....
Dark Souls is a game perhaps best known for its crushingly difficult bosses. Hell, the first one you face off against, you aren’t even meant to be able to beat unless you see a teeny tiny door creak open off to the side of the stage, which is hard, because, you know, you’re staring at the huge boss right in front of you. While some may want to skip bosses because they’re too hard, others may want to so that they can maximise their online capabilities....
With dozens of weapons to choose from, there are a wide variety of builds players can make in Dark Souls 3. Spells, buffs, weapon archetypes, and the ability to two-hand weapons are just a few factors players must consider when making a character. Two-handing is one of the easiest mechanics to understand yet can dramatically change how a build functions. Two-handing a weapon modifies its moveset and grants players a strength bonus, making strength-focused weapons a perfect fit for two-handed builds....
Every hero in Darkest Dungeon is an expendable cog in the grand scheme of things. After all, the fabled manor in which the game takes place is a meat grinder where adventurers go in and treasure comes out, with or without the majority of those adventurers. Even so, you’ll want to practice a bit of consideration and think of preserving the lives of said adventurers. With that in mind, picking the highest pedigree of these heroes ensures that some or most of their comrades make it out of dungeons alive....
As if Darkest Dungeon wasn’t hard enough already, some of you just had to go the extra mile to play the game on a higher difficulty, namely Stygian Mode. It’s currently the toughest and most stressful difficulty level or mode of play in Darkest Dungeon. Stygian Mode comes with the hypertension-inducing obstacle of an 86-week time limit (in-game) and 12 maximum hero deaths. Exceed those restrictions and the game will automatically delete your save file, no matter how hard you cry or take out your frustrations on the screen....
Although Sony’s upcoming zombie-survival exclusive raised tremendous excitement among gamers at its announcement, much of the hype surrounding Days Gone has fizzled since. While that can mostly be attributed to Days Gone’s numerous delays, anticipation for the game may begin to rise again thanks to new promotional material. This week, Sony Bend released the “Fighting to Survive” trailer, which details combat against the undead, humans, and wildlife. Dubbed “freakers”, the zombies in Days Gone can be found in small, substantial, and even “horde” groups....
In a recent interview, Mathieu Cote and Alexandre Rogaume of Behavior Interactive, the developer behind Dead by Daylight, stated the studio’s intent to release Chapters for the game’s mobile port, Dead by Daylight Mobile, at the same time they come to consoles and PC. A Chapter in Dead by Daylight is defined as adding both a new Killer and a new Survivor to the game. Since Cote specified that Behavior interactive intends to release larger content updates together, what this means for smaller additions to the game like Paragraphs, which add either a Killer or Survivor, is unknown....
As the Festival of the Lost enters its second week, some of the mysteries of the Destiny 2 Halloween inspired event remain unsolved. While the cipher decoder issue has seemingly been resolved and players have started unlocking more and more chests at the end of the Haunted Forest activity, some have started to earn the final reward for this years event. The Ascendant Lens is awarded to those who open 45 chests, though what to do with the item has left everyone stumped....
The day many Destiny 2 fans have been waiting for finally happened this week as Bungie’s promised State of the Game blog post went live. Assistant game director Joe Blackburn outlined a huge list of things that Bungie is aiming to implement and change within the game. Arguably the biggest announcement is the delay to this year’s Witch Queen expansion into early 2022. The studio views this expansion as a major piece of the game’s evolution, so it needs more time to make sure everything is just right....
Crimson Days, the Valentine’s Day-themed event which revolves around players pairing up for the event-exclusive Crimson Doubles mode, is now live in Destiny 2.

And that’s not even counting the fact that Iron Banner and Festival of the Lost are active, giving players tons of reasons to grind. However, alongside the Destiny 2 update, Bungie also appears to have snuck in a little something extra....
From the reveal of Warcraft 3: Reforged to the unveiling of Diablo: Immortal, there have been plenty of big announcements to come out of BlizzCon 2018, but perhaps one of the more surprising pieces of information from the event relates to Destiny 2. To celebrate the anniversary of Bungie’s science fiction shooter releasing on PC, the game is now available for free on the platform through November 18, 2018. In order to clarify the situation and avoid as much confusion as possible, it’s important to note that the entire base game of Destiny 2 will be free for players to acquire on PC on Battle....
With E3 2017 still pressing on, more details about fans’ most anticipated games continue to trickle out from developers and creators, with Bungie having recently revealed that Destiny 2’s Guided Games feature will not allow Guardians to access Heroic-level activities.

Of course, a new set of Seasonal Challenges are also available for players that want to obtain XP, Bright Dust, and War Table Reputation.

Bungie is a company that is no stranger to adding secrets and hiding Easter Eggs into its games. One of the more famous examples came within Destiny, where players discovered a secret quest that awarded a powerful sniper rifle called The Black Spindle for those who not only found the secret entrance but cleared the level under a certain time. This past weekend, Destiny 2 players discovered a newly added secret mission with its own Black Spindle type exotic reward, though the mission appears to be taking a short break....
Destiny 2 servers are currently down, leaving many thousands of players confused. For context, the weekly server maintenance was expected, but the servers still being down by now is unusual. As it happens, Bungie has the answer for why the servers are still down, and also when players can expect them to go back up again. As previously stated, Bungie does weekly server maintenance to ensure that Destiny 2’s servers stay in the best condition possible, but that maintenance doesn’t take that long....
In reference to The Taken King launch, Activision-Blizzard reveals data showing that Destiny players average 3 hours of daily playtime in Bungie’s sci-fi shooting RPG. After Activision-Blizzard’s reveal that there are now more than 25 million registered players of Destiny, Bungie’s action-MMO can officially be considered as a smash hit—that is, if it wasn’t already deemed so by its legions of fans. Despite the initial lukewarm critical reception, Destiny has obviously gone on to take gaming consoles by storm, as it’s also been divulged that after The Taken King expansion’s release, its successful sales have translated into would-be Guardians logging an average of slightly more than 3 hours of playtime per day....
Japanese video game developer and publisher Capcom revealed that it expects to make more money than what was initially forecasted for its latest financial year.

According to Capcom, its efforts in increasing digital game sales also contributed to its decision to increase its revenue and profit forecast....
Sailor Moon is one of the most well-known anime series around the world. Originally a manga series by Naoko Takeuchi, the series expanded into five seasons and has now been re-released as Sailor Moon Crystal. Sailor Moon has had a cultural impact in both Japan and America. Sailor Moon’s history in America has had less than stellar roots. When it was first dubbed into English by DIC, the amount of censored content made it almost unwatchable by older audiences familiar with the original series....
