With the advent of a new generation of consoles though, it’s refreshing to see developers like Monolith attempting to eschew these doldrums by introducing new twists on existing mechanics in upcoming open-world title Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Upgrade systems are a dime-a-dozen in open-world titles....

The show follows the island’s residents as they start to face mysterious events that take place in the quiet location following the arrival of new priest, Father Paul (Hamish Linklater).

Flanagan’s previous show The Haunting of Hill House was filmed in a real location that had a different name, while The Haunting of Bly Manor is inspired by a real mansion but was filmed mostly in Bridge Studios in Vancouver....

It’s important to note that Minicraft has no connections to developer Mojang or Minecraft officially, so those of you hoping to see the game follow in the footsteps of its predecessor - or perhaps be Notch’s mysterious next project - are getting ahead of yourselves.

One that made Klei’s previous games stand out among other downloadable offerings - and it will likely do the same for Mark of the Ninja....

Ringmaster is one of the remaining contestants, but her identity is leaving the judges stumped. Her clue that she is a “’90s chick” got some judges guessing names like Alanis Morissette, while the other judges think she might be someone born in the 1990s like Olivia Rodrigo or Zara Larsson. The Fox show’s fans, however, are not so easily fooled. Based on the clues given during the contestants’ three episodes so far on The Masked Singer, many fans think they have worked out exactly who is hiding as Ringmaster Season 7....

In fact, very few critics have had anything bad to say about the game. Most have explained how the Batman: Arkham City combat meshes well with a well-realized open world, and praised the story for making clever nods to Tolkien’s universe. But the real gem of Shadow of Mordor appears to be the game’s Nemesis System, which tracks game-wide vendettas between the player and various enemies. It’s something that Monolith has been touting since day one, and were keen to show us back at E3 2014, but seeing it in the full game apparently tips the experience over the edge....

In their mind, Microsoft represents corporate thinking, while Minecraft comes from a place of independent creativity. The more extreme Minecraft fans took things a step further with claims that Mojang, and Minecraft creator Markus “Notch” Persson, “sold out" by letting Microsoft acquire the property. To them, Mojang and Persson cashed in on a lucrative opportunity and let the franchise fall into the clutches of the enemy....
