Mortal Kombat 2 is on track to double the opening weekend of the first movie at the box office when it hits the big screen in two weeks.The sequel is predicted to make between $40 million and $50 million at the US box office when it opens on May 8 (via Deadline).The first movie’s opening weekend brought in $23.2 million back in 2021, which is still fairly impressive considering it also had a day-and-date release on HBO Max as part of Warner Bros. COVID release strategy. The movie went on to make $84.4 million worldwide against a $55 million budget…
I’ve used Logitech’s MX Master office mice for the best part of six years by this point, beginning with the MX Master 3, then the 3S and now the MX Master 4. Weirdly, the best one to pick up from a value and features standpoint is the MX Master 3S, which I noted in my original 2022 review to have the same excellent ergonomics as its predecessor, versatile wireless connectivity, a zippy 8000 DPI sensor and much more. For £69 from Amazon (nice), it’s a return to one of the best prices I’ve seen on this rodent in a few…
The videogame universe feels split down the middle at the moment. Every day brings a new round of X discourse about literally anything, and it feels like we consistently seem to be straying farther and farther from God. The one thing that truly unites us, however, is our hatred for cheaters – no matter your background, no one likes those guys. League of Legends’ Director of Product, Drew Levin, has become a walking, talking, Poppy-esque ban hammer, cracking down on myriad rulebreakers over the past few months and establishing himself as somewhat of an icon. Next on his list is a…
You will suspect this already, I’m sure, but all those 90 percent scores that your favorite Bullfrog games were awarded back in the day, well, their authors may not have been quite as scientific in their endeavors as you were once led to believe.That’s not to suggest anything untoward was behind any of them – certainly not the vast majority anyway – only that the four-week cycle of print publishing that once ringfenced gamer discourse meant that reviews were handled very differently to how they are today, certainly when it came to titles that adorned the covers of magazines in…
Former PlayStation boss Shuhei Yoshida says he doesn’t see any proof Sony is abandoning PC releases, but says day-one PC launches aren’t a great idea, anyway.Speaking in an interview at Powerhouse Museum’s ALT. Games Festival (via Respawn First) Yoshida says, “When I was working on the game development side, first-party at PlayStation, from a strategy standpoint, we are [sic] not allowed to bring our AAA games to other platforms like PC.”The first major first-party PC release was Horizon: Zero Dawn in 2020 – which was released almost a year after Yoshida stepped down as president of SIE Worldwide Studios. He…
If you’ve ever longed to see Rockstar’s controversial early 2000s snuff game Manhunt get a fully-blown crossover with its slightly more jovially murdery sibling Grand Theft Auto, a San Andreas total conversion mod that’s recently released its first playable demo might be up your alley. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to put some distance between me and that probably very bloodstained alley.
Since the release of CS2 back in 2023, Valve has been remastering classic Counter-Strike maps for the new game, giving them fresh coats of paint and adjusting how they play. Now, we’re getting our first look at the new version of Cache, with Valve giving us a sneak peek at T-side spawn. Cache is one of Counter-Strike’s most iconic maps, but it was removed from the active map pool in 2019. Since then, fans of the legendary FPS game have been clamoring for its return, but Valve has stayed silent on the matter until now. It’s been almost a year…

Martin Scorsese is heading to a galaxy far, far away in new Star Wars movie The Mandalorian and Grogu. He’s playing an Ardennian who owns a food truck – and according to director Jon Favreau, he brought a lot of improv to the role.”He did a lot of improv, he was just a lot of fun,” Favreau told Fandango. “It’s interesting because when the director is on their set, they’re running the show, but I find when directors are on other people’s sets, they just want to play and have fun, and he just had a great time. It was…
