Deathloop Shows Difficulty Settings Aren’t Just For Gamers Who Want “Easy Modes”

New DVD release, , , , ,
I loved Deathloop despite its various flaws, but the one thing I keep going back to whenever I think back to my time with the game is its lack of traditional difficulty settings and how the absence of those options really highlights why it feels like more and more people have been calling for optional difficulty settings in recent years. Aside from allowing you to determine whether Julianna’s invasions are controlled by other players or the A.I., there’s really no direct way to alter how difficult Deathloop will be. It’s pretty much a one-size-fits-all experience where the “difficulty” of the…

Marvel’s Avengers Roadmap Shows How Bad Spider-Man’s PlayStation Exclusivity Really Is

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The Marvel’s Avengers team has revealed the game’s upcoming content roadmap, and the relatively thin release schedule really goes to show just how dependent the game’s immediate future is on its controversial PlayStation exclusive Spider-Man DLC. The big stars of Marvel’s Avengers‘ upcoming content release schedule (which you can find below) are the game’s first raid and the long-awaited addition of Spider-Man to the online action game’s roster of playable Marvel heroes.

Shang-Chi Box Office Sets Record, Shows Viability of Movie Theaters in Fall

New DVD release, , , , , ,
After a weekend like this, one might wonder if folks huddled around a Disney conference table are giving the whole “Premier Access” thing on Disney+ a rethink. They should since the Shang-Chi box office obliterated previous Labor Day weekend records and is currently on track to earn upwards of $85 million over the four-day holiday in the U.S. The superhero origin story, which introduces a new masked avenger to the Marvel Cinematic Universe—a first for the studio since Captain Marvel back in spring 2021—posted the third best opening day during the COVID-19 pandemic by grossing an estimated $29.6 million on…

School of Rock Still Shows Why We Need a Jack Black Movie Musical

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
School of Rock is back! On Netflix, that is. This is excellent news. If we can ignore the fact that Jack Black’s character Dewey Finn does some seriously illegal, borderline sociopathic stuff in the film’s story, while also tanking an entire school year for a classroom full of precocious kids, Richard Linklater and Mike White’s family film absolutely rocks our socks off.

Of course the chief reason why this movie goes so hard is…
