Joker: Folie à Deux might be getting clowned on at the box office, but another clown is having a ball meanwhile. Terrifier 3 is killing it as we speak (given its minuscule $2 million budget), and according to creator Damien Leone, two more flicks are on the cards. Following solid reviews and a $28 million worldwide haul so far, it’s not strange to see Art the Clown popping up on our feeds time and again. Of course, all this buzz has led to more interviews with creator Damien Leone, and to the surprise of no one, Terrifier 4 is in the works. The shock, however, is that he’s not planning to keep the slasher horror series around for as long as it prints money.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings DiscussingFilm shared the news, with Leone saying he’…

The developers of Enotria: The Last Song, an Italian soulslike that’s set to release later this month, have announced that the Xbox version of the game has been delayed indefinitely. Why? Well, according to its studio Jyamma Games, a “lack of communication” from the Xbox side is the cause of the hold-up.Pushed back earlier this year, likely so it didn’t drop right around the same time as Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which was obviously the right call, Enotia’s now arriving on September 19 and had looked like it’d be on Xbox at launch, despite some uncertainty in thar regard prior to the September date being locked in.

Apologies to those of you hoping to escape to a cosy Hobbit life, but Tales of the Shire has been delayed into 2025.While there’s a seemingly infinite number of cosy games to play at any given moment, Lord of the Rings fans were unsurprisingly particularly excited by Tales of the Shire. You get to be a Hobbit and do things like fish, farm, cook, and explore the world of Lord of the Rings in a low-stakes manner, what’s not to love? It was originally due out sometime this year, but as the year gets closer and closer towards its end, Wētā Workshop Game Studio has some bad news: the game has been delayed into 2025. It’s obviously not the news you’d want to hear, especially when one of the most recent video game entries in the world of Middle-earth was The Lord of the Rings:…

You know that one meme? The one with the dog, surrounded by fire, stating “this is fine” despite all the non-ideal stuff going on around him?

But the original creator of the comic the meme comes from, in partnership with Numskull Games, is now making a video game called This Is Fine: Maximum Cope, based on the dog Question Hound and his battle against various nasty creatures.This reveal went live recently on YouTube and social media, with a short announcement video explaining that a Kickstarter for the game would be going live later this month of September 26. The page is already live, though you can’t throw money at the game yet. It does provide a…

It turns out that Sony was not particularly confident in the original PlayStation doing all that well.As it stands, the original PlayStation is the sixth best selling console of all time. It’s not quite as popular as the PS4 or the console that takes the number one spot, the beloved PS2, but it’s still a very impressive feat. And despite all 102.49 million of those sales, before the console actually launched, according to Ken Kutaragi, the former Sony SIE CEO who is also known as “the father of the PlayStation”, Sony didn’t actually have all that much faith in it, and neither did anyone else. Kutaragi recently made an appearance during the 2024 Tokyo Game Show official keynote, where he spoke about the lead-up to the launch of the console (thanks, GamesRadar).【TGS2024】Official Program …

VariousThere are so many ways to be a Dungeons & Dragons fan these days. The tabletop RPG mainstay has been synonymous with pen-and-paper adventuring for 50 years now, and 2024 marks a major reworking of its core rulebooks to make the game more approachable. Anyone who’s played even just a couple of sessions knows how easy it can be to covet a friend’s set of custom dice, appreciate the care a Dungeon Master has taken in setting the right ambience for a crafted campaign, or even obsess over their choice of pen and notebook — after all, it’s what you’ll be spending a large chunk of time staring into as you ponder your character’s next heroic action.But what’s amazing is that you can be a huge D&D fan without ever touching a character sheet. D&D and the Forgotten R…
