See at GameStop Normally $40, Resident Evil 3 is currently just $23 on the GameStop website.

Resident Evil 3 does feature occasional moments as a second character but is a more linear game. Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Control was a surprise-hit game with a whole lot of style, and the Ultimate Edition version with cross-buy support is currently on sale at GameStop for a great price. It's GameStop's daily deal, so you don't want to wait to snag it and see why Remedy Entertainment's bizarre paranormal action game got so much attention. See at GameStop Usually $40, the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Control: Ultimate Edition are both $25 right now at GameStop. These versions are the only ones to support a free next-gen upgrade on PS5 and Xbox Series X, with the standard copies only giving you the game on the disc.

The new Mortal Kombat movie is out now, both in theaters and on HBO Max now, for all of your fatality needs. The movie introduces a number of iconic characters, is loaded with familiar special moves, and doesn't skimp on the blood. However, there is one pretty significant departure from the fighting video game franchise's history. There's a reason for that, though, according to director Simon McQuoid.Warning: The following contains spoilers from the new Mortal Kombat movie. If you've yet to watch it in theaters or on HBO Max, you should probably steer clear for now.While we see a number of fights between a variety of characters--and several definitive winners--none of it takes place in the actual Mortal Kombat tournament. After all, that's the original point of Mortal Kombat, these fighters are battling to the death to become the tournament's grand champion. And while the tournament is mentioned quite a bit in the movie, we don't actually see it. Unlike the original Mortal Kombat film, all of the fighting in this new movie takes place before it can even start.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Last month, it appeared that Sony had finally killed off the web version for the old-style PlayStation Store, which included games for legacy systems like the PS Vita and PS3. However, a browser plugin now allows you to access the store once again. Paired with Sony's reversal on ending digital game sales for these systems, it's very good news for PlayStation fans. The plugin, available through Firefox, provides renewed access to the web version of the "Valkyrie" PlayStation Store, which is what was used until around the time the PS5 released. In addition to being arguably easier to navigate, it's the only way you can buy and download Vita or PS3 games without using the systems' own software. Try to search for a Vita exclusive on the current PlayStation Store and you'll get a whole lot of nothing. The older version also provides a very easy-to-use download list for quickly choosing what to install.Oh. My. God.So, and this makes sense, the old web Playstation store wasn't taken down as much as they just got rid of a few HTML files to prevent you from access the APIs.So someone made a Firefox plugin to restore it. AND IT WORKS.https://t.co/30enQtMBT4@DelistedGames pic.twitter.com/QzMemfqCMc — Chris Glass (@TheChrisGlass) April 23, 2021Because Sony was planning to shutter the Vita and PS3 stores completely within the next few months, this plugin would seemingly serve little purpose. However, the company reversed that decision just days ago and now doesn't have a timeline for when they'll close. Though the PSP store will still be closing in July, it doesn't have the same huge digital-only game selection as the other systems.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

See at GameStop The deal applies to four different versions of the game: Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PS4, and PS5.

Prior to the success of Assassin's Creed and Just Dance, the collective "Tom Clancy's" games were arguably Ubisoft's biggest hits. Rainbow Six revolutionized close-quarters tactical squad shooters with its relentless difficulty and necessitated planning. Ghost Recon took the action into larger areas for a blend of intense action and precision. But it was Splinter Cell that cemented Ubisoft's place as the master of the techno-military thriller game.The series took the stealth-action concepts pioneered by Metal Gear Solid and improved them to near-perfect levels, even working the tagline "Stealth Action Redefined" into the first game's full title. Splinter Cell evolved and morphed in the years that followed, adding more action elements, a greater emphasis on dark, personal storytelling, and creative new multiplayer modes. For a long time, it seemed like it could do no wrong, and even after needing to switch actors for Sam Fisher when developing Splinter Cell Blacklist--Michael Ironside was suffering from cancer at the time--new studio Ubisoft Toronto delivered a slick mix of traditional stealth and deadly action.And then Splinter Cell disappeared, only not in a fun way like when Sam Fisher blends into the darkness and becomes the night itself.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Respawn Entertainment has grown considerably since its early day working on the first Titanfall game, with multiple franchises and releases under its belt. Its next game, or at least one of its next games, will be an original IP--its first since Titanfall launched back in 2014. Though details on the project are scarce and it looks to be very early in development, several Respawn developers confirmed the game will be a new IP. The official job listing also uses this wording and mentions a "compact incubation team," and the studio means it. Programmer Steven Kah Hien Wong added that only five people are on the project at the moment. Want to get in early and help build a new IP from scratch? We're a team of *5* right now looking for our 6th (a coder)! https://t.co/BpfxUBZ71L — Steven Kah Hien Wong (@gluttyriceball) April 22, 2021Respawn certainly has a lot on its plate with the continued development of Apex Legends as well as an expected Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order sequel, and it also branched into VR with Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond last year.

It will be a prequel series focusing on the young Winston, the character played by Ian McShane in the movies.The news comes via a Deadline interview with Kevin Beggs, the chairman of Lionsgate TV, which is producing The Continental for Starz.

"That's the arena. I won't give away more than that, but Starz really leaned into this take also, and they have been great collaborators."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
