Having handled the master of magnetism for 26 years now, you’d think that Ian McKellen would know to keep his lips sealed when it comes to upcoming superhero outings. Unfortunately, though the X-Men star and soon-to-be new addition to the MCU in Avengers: Doomsday has spilled some details about Magneto’s part in the eagerly anticipated sequel, and it turns out he might have created a spot of bother for New Jersey.During an interview on Jake’s Takes, McKellen expressed his love for the character that he’s played five times across the original X-Men franchise. “I didn’t realise how popular he was,”…
The Sunday Papers is our weekly roundup of great writing about (mostly) videogames from across the web.Sundays are for heading into your kitchen at 7am to find the neighbour’s cat squatting with her back to you on the windowsill. The neighbour’s cat spooks easily and every time you scare her away, you worry she’s never coming back. So let’s very quietly make a cup of coffee and ever so softly click on some links to internet articles and read them as frictionlessly as we can manage. You! I can hear your eyelids squeaking. I can hear the little wheels chewing…
Netflix is revving up a new version of the Mystery Machine with a fresh live-action take on Scooby-Doo, and now one of the original gang who tried it out back in 2002 has had a few words to say on the matter. Matthew Lillard played Shaggy in two films, alongside the other perfectly cast members of Mystery Inc. — Freddie Prinze Jr. as Fred, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Daphne, and Linda Cardellini as Velma — so it’s fair to say he knows how to handle the permanently petrified dog.“My general thought is that I’m really happy for them. I think…
It’s somehow been over 30 years since Jurassic Park hit cinemas in 1993 and broke several box office records, including beating E.T to become the highest-grossing film of all time – beaten only by James Cameron’s Avatar in 2009.It’s one of the best action movies of all time and still a mainstay in so many households across the world, and it’s easy to see why. But, even if you’ve lost count of how many times you’ve watched it, it doesn’t mean you’re bound to ace this Jurassic Park trivia quiz.As always, if you like this quiz, there’s more where that…
Beyond Good & Evil 2 lead promises to deliver "a remarkable game for our players to enjoy" as he confirms the game is "unaffected by the recent changes" at Ubisoft
Beyond Good and Evil 2’s creative director Fawzi Mesmar has confirmed that the game is still in development despite six other Ubisoft games being canceled in the company’s recent “major reset.”Last week Ubisoft made a statement claiming that “Beyond Good & Evil 2 remains a priority for us in the context of our strategy centered around Open World Adventures.” However, as the company made numerous reassurances that the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake was still in development before unceremoniously canceling it alongside five other games, people are understandably skeptical of what company statements have to say.Mesmar took to…
The Arc Raiders Movie Night quest has players sent into Stella Montis to find a stack of tapes, followed soon by a portable TV so you can actually watch them. But Stella Montis is famously a big labyrinth, and it’s not clear where you should look for a portable television at all. Below I’ll explain where to find both of these things, so you can set up Arc Raider’s movie night properly.Stack of Movie Tapes location in Arc Raiders (Image credit: Embark Studios)To find the Stack of Movie Tapes for the Movie Night quest in Arc Raiders, players have to…
"Was it worth it? Not really": Arc Raiders martyr spends "2 months and 300 hours" on ultra-rare achievement only 14 other people have managed to secure, and it was awful
Hard work can be necessary, but have you considered the fact that working hard is also horrible? One Arc Raiders player didn’t until it was too late, so she momentarily dedicated her life to a rare achievement only 14 other people have obtained.The fact that streamer and YouTuber Eskay dedicated what she says were “two months and 300 hours” to a unique Arc Raiders achievement and obliterated her goal is hugely impressive. But Eskay herself isn’t sure that the time it took to grab the Cantina Legend rank, which only the top 100 players in the already challenging Hotshot rank…

Epic Games Store GM says Valve's Team Fortress hats "definitely inspired" Epic's new Fortnite crossovers, like getting a Crimson Desert skin when you buy a game through Epic
Epic Games Store general manager Steve Allison says the new batch of gift-with-purchase Fortnite collabs are inspired by Team Fortress 2.Epic Games has previously offered goodies in Fortnite with the purchase of games on its store – most notably, in 2023, those who purchased Alan Wake 2 on the Epic Games Store received the man himself in Fortnite. However, Epic’s gifting efforts seem to be ramping up in 2026, and players can already anticipate a Resident Evil: Requiem collaboration (giving players a Grace Ashcroft skin) and a Crimson Desert collaboration (giving players a Kliff skin).Posting about the Kliff skin on…
The highest-rated new Steam game of 2026 is a $6 fantasy mech shooter that feels like a PS1 nod to FromSoftware's Armored Core and started as a way "to learn game dev"
It may be nostalgia talking, but I’ve a real soft spot for visuals inspired by the original PlayStation, when developers were just learning how to harness 3D. Vital Shell is a mecha love letter to those halcyon days, pitting you against swarms of enemies in your oversized (yet very cute) robot suit, and it’s making real waves on Steam.The game’s setup is simple: once you pick your mech, you drop into an area and start blasting through everything that gets in your way. Gradually, you come face to face with the boss, whom you’ve to out-maneuver and take down.It’s quick…
