After the reveal of Coven’s witches on last week’s American Horror Story, the potential for crossovers to previous seasons has amped up. There’s already been characters from Murder House and Coven, but tonight the show’s fifth season, Hotel, gets a nod. Queenie was killed in Hotel and her soul has been trapped in the Hotel Cortez since then. Now that two of the previously dead witches are risen and accounted for, does this mean Misty Day is coming back soon? American Horror Story: Apocalypse air

The Entertainment Software Association, the organization behind E3 and the group that lobbies on behalf of U.S. video game publishers, announced a change in leadership today. ESA president and CEO Michael D. Gallagher, who joined the organization in 2007, has resigned. Gallagher led the organization during a landmark First Amendment case, Brown v.

Sure there are total dud weapons like The 4th Horseman, but Destiny players on PS4 also got Hawkmoon, one of the best hand cannons in the game. But Xbox and PC players will be denied that privilege with Wavesplitter until next year, just like they were with Borealis. The same problem exists for the exclusive strikes in the game, although that’s even a bad deal for PlayStation players. It’s frustrating to see that four years later, Destiny players still have to put up with exclusives. These exclu

Here are six of the ways Assassin’s Creed Odyssey has reduced the friction that hurt previous games. Instead, you can pay a differing amount of drachmae, Odyssey’s in-game currency, to reset your abilities and re-spend your ability points. This is a smart move, as the game’s three main upgrade paths make you more powerful at sneaking, hand-to-hand combat or ranged combat with your bow. Luckily, the game includes a quick-save function that lets you save anywhere, allowing you to save scum your wa

Twin Peaks VR draws on Showtime’s 2017 revival of the 1990s’ two-season wonder, according to Collider.

In the latest episode of Polygon’s Quality Control podcast we grapple with the Greco-action game Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. In each episode of Quality Control, a Polygon writer talks to a critic after they review a new game, movie or piece of gear and allows them to add a little bit of extra context and insight. What do they wish they had been able to discuss in more depth in their review? You can read our full review of Odyssey, dial back the clock for our E3 impressions, or indulge our argument

In Destiny 2: Forsaken, each Last Wish raid encounter has a challenge to complete for bonus loot. In this guide, we’ll teach you how to beat Shuro Chi’s “Which Witch” raid challenge. If this is your first week on Shuro Chi, The Corrupted you may want to pass on this challenge.

Lilo & Stitch is the latest movie to get the hybrid live-action treatment from Disney, according to a new report from The Hollywood Reporter. Lilo & Stitch was released in 2002, and is one of the studio’s most beloved films. It follows a girl named Lilo and her blue koala bear-like alien friend, Stitch. The big question is whether the new Lilo & Stitch will head to theaters upon release, or will become a major exclusive for Disney’s streaming service. The streaming service is set to launch somet

Venom’s real life origin story goes back beyond his first appearance, twisting through a toy company’s survey on kids’ favorite words, the creation of the modern superhero event comic and even the near collapse of the comics industry. As much as we’re used to them now, Secret Wars was the first comic of its kind. And in each issue, there was a footnote telling readers that they should check out the upcoming Secret Wars story to find out why. Secret WarfareFinally, Secret Wars #8 hit the stands,

The team behind the Skywind mod, the effort to rebuild The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind inside The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, has released a brand-new trailer. It focuses on House Dagoth, which fans may remember is responsible for the original game’s mysterious cult. That effort was particularly challenging for locations inhabited by House Dagoth. This is a disgraced political power that is returning in force, and we want to make that presence felt.”Skywind isn’t the only Morrowind mod in the news l

Join the new parrot chef, as well as returning chef Boof, and others to work with the Onion King and serve up some tropical classics.

Square Enix’s enigmatic story-driven game The Quiet Man will be coming to PlayStation 4 and Windows PC on Nov. 1The game was first teased at this year’s E3, with an interesting trailer that focused on live-action visuals. The latest trailer for The Quiet Man repeats this pattern, starting off with live-action actors as the titular quiet man wanders around a dark and gritty city and an elegant lounge pianist takes the stage at the mysterious Club Moonrise. Before long the visuals switch, offering

Those principles will set the stage for BlizzCon 2018, where Blizzard is looking to expand the convention. Welcome to the NexusThe Nexus is the standout inclusion to BlizzCon 2018 this year.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is packed full of quests and missions. It’s basically a Battle Royale tribute. While Battle Royale games are generally multiplayer affairs, this is strictly a single-player mission. Odyssey’s protagonist Kassandra (or her brother Alexios) comes across a street hawker, rustling up entrants to a big showpiece battle. You can follow our Assassin’s Creed Odyssey coverage here.

A hardware modder, who goes by the handle Shank, claims to have crammed a fully functional Nintendo Wii into an Altoids tin. Called KillMii, photos show a portable device bound in a curiously strong tin can with a rough cut-out for its two-inch screen. It’s a fully functional Wii portable inside an actual Altoids tin. It runs hot, has a 10 minute battery life, and awful controls, but it’s a real Wii inside (not an emulator.) We’ve been crunching the numbers on the legendary Nintendo Wii console,

Spider-Man lead writer Jon Paquette tells Polygon that lots of original ideas were thrown away in the creation of Insomniac’s latest game. But the upcoming DLC hasn’t been cobbled together from the extra bits left on the cutting room floor. Why don’t we focus on a time in his early 20s when he’s just graduated from college. And that’s when things go wrong.’”The game’s original treatment, which Paquette showed to Marvel for approval, was fairly lengthy. So just keep looking for hidden things.”Spi

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, more so than even Assassin’s Creed Origins, is a game ruled by your character’s level. But the real issue takes place later in the game, where grinding becomes all but necessary for most players. “Early in the game, grinding by racking up small quests, only occurs in patches, with the central story offering almost enough XP to keep up with leveling demands,” our review stated. It’s almost inevitable that you’ll find yourself grinding to some extent while playing Odyssey

And, of course, Metal Gear Solid. Though Solid was the third entry in the Metal Gear franchise, only the very first game (which was titled simply Metal Gear) had been localized for release outside Japan. Everything that made Metal Gear Solid great had already been done by Metal Gear 2In other words, Metal Gear Solid made such an impression because it elevated the state of narrative art in games, while simultaneously giving players a rich, complex sandbox in which to complete their mission.
