On Thursday, a senior Russian lawmaker said Europe should separate itself from U.S. policy or risk damaging the continent’s future prospects. Russia has always considered NATO an existential threat, and believes the alliance’s continued expansion is part of an aggressive strategy to contain and weaken Moscow and its allies. Macron’s comments then, came as a welcome surprise for the Kremlin. The president told The Economist that Europe could no longer rely on the U....

[HTML1] Just hours after the first reports of a Borderlands sequel/prequel set in space hit the Internet, Gearbox Software and 2K Games have made it official, announcing and releasing the first gameplay footage, details and screenshots of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. With the game’s story taking place between the first and second installments in Gearbox’s acclaimed series, players will enjoy new locations, new classes - even a new developer.

The developers haven’t been shy about showing off gameplay to prove that corners haven’t been cut in delivering an experience that looks and feels like they’ve come to expect. But now that the reviews have begun to pour in, the team’s decision to deliver another helping of an established series has had… predictable results. In our own time with the game, it was clear that it would be best described as simply more Borderlands for those seeking it....

Taking to popular Subreddit “Am I the A**hole,” the bride shared that she recently had a wedding on the beach of a hotel in Cancun, Mexico. The day, however, ended in an argument between the newly-married couple after her actions.

The period drama is based on the Bridgerton series of books, published from 2000 onwards by romance novelist Julia Quinn. The first season was an adaptation of the first book in the series, The Duke and I, which tells the story of the kind socialite Daphne Bridgerton (played by Phoebe Dynevor) and the aloof Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page). This is the first of eight main books, with The Duke and I followed by The Viscount Who Loved Me, An Offer From A Gentleman, Romancing Mr....

However while fans of the book might expect the story to go in one direction, they will be surprised to learn how different the show actually is from its source material....

ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Bridgerton Season 2 could be on its way this year if recent reports are to be believed. According to a leading production publication, shooting on the second set of episodes of the Netflix series was due to start in the summer of 2020, but has now been postponed to March 2021 as a response to the coronavirus pandemic, which shut down production on most shows for the majority of last year....

A couple of weeks ago, I ranked the top 30 quotes from “Major League,” on the 30th anniversary of that classic’s release. When I finished, I would have definitely told you that’s my favorite. But this week, I’ve rewatched “Bull Durham” a couple of times to rank this brilliant movie’s best quotes/scenes, and now I’m just as convinced this one’s my favorite. I may never settle on one. And that’s OK....

Bulletstorm was something of a parody of the shooter genre, as demonstrated by the Duty Calls trailer and accompanying free-to-play game. Wisely, Bulletstorm never itself never took itself too seriously, instead focusing on solid, innovative gameplay and grandiose amounts of vulgarity, which ultimately got it in trouble with Fox News. Despite receiving a huge marketing campaign as well as many incentives for potential purchasers (such as access to the Gears of War 3 beta), Bulletstorm failed to meet Epic Games’ financial expectations....

The first thing players are apt to notice about Burnout CRASH! is its perspective. Yes, as previously reported, the game takes place from a top down perspective. And, yes, there are lobster monsters. But it’s not just the game’s perspective and opponents that have changed. The team behind CRASH! took inspiration from a number of unlikely sources, according to Creative Director Richard Franke. Currently slated to release this Fall on both Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network, Burnout CRASH!...

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare releases all of its DLC on Xbox systems first.

[HTML1] It’s been about two months since the launch of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare on last-gen and current-gen platforms and by and large Sledgehammer Games’ first foray into the franchise seems to be a hit. So much so, that Advanced Warfare was one of the first COD games in recent memory to land on Game Rant’s top 10 games of the year. But now that some time has passed, players are itching for more and, as if on cue, Sledgehammer is ready to give it to them....

One of the more surprisingly elements that was leaked earlier this week involved the presence of zombies in the game. In fact, one gamer leaked footage from Advanced Warfare that featured a zombies tease, but few knew what the video actually meant. Now, thanks to GameStop we know that Zombies will be a part of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare’s DLC Season Pass. We don’t know too much about the mode in question, but GameStop has confirmed that it will release with one of the game’s four DLC map packs....

[HTML1] If it wasn’t already clear that Sledgehammer Games was looking to make their mark on the Call of Duty brand with their first outing in the series, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare , then the latest story trailer should do the trick. Laying out the plot from beginning to end, the new footage gives even more of a glimpse at the next-gen visuals and animation, while also providing a first look at hero Jack Mitchell....

As it turns out, Treyarch look to have one-upped their Zombie Mode from World at War. How, you ask, could someone create something more entertaining than Zombie Nazis? The answer, ladies and gentlemen, is Presidents fighting Zombies. Yes, what you see there is real: Robert McNamara, John F Kennedy, Fidel Castro, and Richard Nixon, loaded and ready to unleash on the undead. The Pentagon has been breached, and its up to these four to hold the barricades and go down like legends....

Is there going to be another season of Big Sky? Good news going into the finale. Big Sky may pull off another character death twist like the one it did at the start of the show with Cody (Ryan Phillippe), but the show itself is set to live another day.
