     Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 ending and post-credits explained

Wondering exactly what's going on during the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 ending? Like the previous Modern Warfare reboot, MW2 leaves players on yet another cliffhanger, teasing heavily at a Modern Warfare 3 reboot with story elements from the original series. But beyond the very obvious spoiler bait, there are a few plot threads that aren't particularly well explained with Hassan, Shepherd, and the 141 crew.

So, join us as we recap and explain the Modern Warfare 2 ending and post-credits cutscene, and offer our best guess as to what this all means for the future of the series. And just to get this out of the way: there are major plot spoilers ahead.

Resident Evil Re:Verse was meant to launch in May 2021 and had its first beta in April of that year. The multiplayer mode for owners of Resident Evil Village then slipped and slipped again. It's now due for release on October 28th, and during this evening's Resident Evil Showcase developers Capcom announced an early access beta for the game that will start on Monday, October 24th.

About three years after I graduated, I returned to the city where I went to University. Immediately after arriving, I embarked on an early-evening pilgrimage of sorts, my only goal to wander once familiar paths in an attempt to capture a spark of the life I no longer lived. As I ambled past houses that used to be homes, local haunts and darkened lecture halls, it was the differences that stood out the most. Pubs with names I didn't recognise. Shops in locations that were more convenient than the ones I used to rely upon. Huge buildings that had seemingly sprung out of deserted scrubland. The city felt intimate yet alien. I was both a stranger and a local, a foreigner in a place I'd once adored.

I was thinking about this experience a lot when I was invited to play a short hands-on demo of Capcom's upcoming Resident Evil 4 remake. Here is a remake of my favourite game ever made, a title I have replayed countless times in the 17 years since its original debut, and all I can do is think about the little things. Tiny alterations that feel much larger when surrounded by something so immediately recognisable. This was the same Resident Evil 4 I've always known, but one that feels bigger, better and more dynamic. I left my session excited to play more, cautiously optimistic that Capcom may be in the process of crafting their best remake to date.

Resident Evil Re:Verse

Resident Evil was a pioneer of "survival horror", but this year Capcom will make it a pioneer of "survival revenge". That's the dynamic of Resident Evil Re:Verse, a new title focused on competitive multiplayer. Originally supposed to launch in mid-2021, Re:Verse was delayed into 2022. Now it's set to launch on October 28, alongside Resident Evil Village Gold Edition. Existing owners of Resident Evil Village will gain early access from October 23, 2022.

Check out the launch trailer for Resident Evil Re:Verse below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_UZXARzNJg

Resident Evil Re:Verse is a competitive online "survival revenge" mode for two to six players. Players can fight each other and against monsters on maps drawn from across Capcom's Resident Evil Remake line.They'll choose to play as characters like Chris, Jill, Hunk, and Ada, and use a variety of weapons and items to gain the upper hand. The game also has a "Bioweapon's Revenge" mechanic, where players can gather up virus capsules. If they're defeated by another player, they resurrect as a powerful bioweapon based on one of the series' many boss characters, such as Jack Baker or Nemesis. The more virus capsules they have, the stronger the creature they become. "Revenge-killing" the player who downed them also awards extra points.

The game supports cross-platform play, and will be freely accessible to all owners of Resident Evil Village and the Gold Edition.

Resident Evil Re:Verse early access opens to owners of Resident Evil Village on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on October 23, 2022 at 7:00 PM PDT and ends on October 25, 2022 at 11:00 PM PDT.

Resident Evil Village Gold Edition

Capcom dropped a minor bombshell during its Resident Evil Showcase stream on October 20, 2022. After previewing the new features of Resident Evil Village Gold Edition, the company let audiences know that a playable demo for the game is readily available.

The playable demo for Resident Evil Village Gold Edition is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. It lasts roughly 60 minutes and allows players to play in both first-person and the newly added third-person mode.

There's more to the Gold Edition than that, though. In all the game, which includes the base game and the Winters' Expansion DLC, adds three additional gameplay modes. Players can take advantage of the additional distance of Third-Person Mode for a more action game-like feel. Then the Mercenaries Additional Orders mode is a combat-oriented mode allowing players to play as Chris Redfield, Karl Heisenberg, and legendary tall person Lady Alcina Dimitrescu.

Core to the expansion, though, is "Shadows of Rose", a new single-player story campaign featuring Ethan's daughter, Rose. Check out the story trailer below.

Note: The story trailer may contain spoilers for the Resident Evil Village base game.

Resident Evil Village is readily available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Resident Evil Village Gold Edition launches on October 28, 2022, with a gameplay demo available now. Owners of Resident Evil Village can purchase the Winters' Expansion DLC separately.

Resident Evil 4 Remake

Capcom showed off new footage of its Resident Evil 4 Remake during its Resident Evil Showcase stream on October 20, 2022. It also confirmed that the game is headed to PS4, PC, and Xbox Series X|S consoles. Previously the game was only confirmed for release on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X. Owners of the PS4 version will be able to upgrade to the PS5 version for free.

The new gameplay footage showed off Leon going through some of the earliest portions of the game, such as exploring the first abandoned house and entering the Ganados' village. Now-iconic encounters like fighting the Chainsaw Ganado have new twists, like environmental destruction, and Leon parrying the chainsaw with his combat knife. Some scenes that were simple dialog exchanges before are reframed and shot as cinematic cutscenes in the remake. Lighting overall is also quite different. Encounters that took place in broad daylight before now happen at night or in the driving rain. Glimpses of redesigned characters like Ada Wong and Ashley Graham were also seen.

Check out the Resident Evil 4 Remake trailer below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMzJv0LOJYo

The presentation also showed off crafting gameplay, attaché case inventory management, and interactions with the Merchant. Leon can buy weapons from him like before, as well as tune them up with upgrades. A trading system that allows Leon to trade collectible "rare gems" for special items will be present in the remake.

The Resident Evil 4 remake will also have a Deluxe and Collector's Edition package for those who are interested. The Deluxe Edition includes four cosmetic skins for Leon and two for Ashley, as well as a sunglasses (sporty) accessory. There are also special "Hero" and "Villain" visual filters to change the look of the game. The Deluxe package also adds two "deluxe weapons" (A special Sentinel Nine pistol and Skull Shaker shotgun). A "Treasure Map Expansion" also adds additional treasures. Finally, the Deluxe Edition lets players swap to the original version of the soundtrack for additional nostalgia. The Collector's Edition package includes the Deluxe Edition content, a digital soundtrack, and physical goods like a Steelbook case, a map poster, special box, art book, and a figure of Leon holding a shotgun.

[gallery ids="937654,937655,937656" link="file"]

Pre-orders of the game also get additional goodies, like a Gold Attaché Case skin and decorative charms for it. Pre-orders of the Deluxe and Collector's Edition packs get one more charm and the "Classic" Attaché Case skin. PSN Store pre-orders also unlock a digital mini-soundtrack.

The Resident Evil 4 Remake launches on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 24, 2023.

     Dragon Ball The Breakers survivor hiding raider CellIn a world filled with ultra-powerful beings that can level cities and even entire planets without breaking a sweat, what does it feel like to be normal? That's the question that Dragon Ball: The Breakers, Bandai Namco's new asymmetric online multiplayer game, attempts to answer. The premise, which sees seven ordinary people escaping from the indiscriminate rampage of one of Dragon Ball's iconic supervillains, is easily the game's greatest asset, and it makes for a fantastic shakeup from the series' usual fighting game fare. Unfortunately, while Dragon Ball: The Breakers can be decent fun, a slew of issues prevent it from living up to its promise. The problems begin with the game's prologue, which provides a few basic tutorials in addition to providing some light story justification for the multiplayer matches. Not only do the tutorials for each gameplay element provide little context for how these mechanics would function in an actual match, bu...

     Resident Evil 4 Remake Gameplay TrailerDuring a showcase today, Capcom at last presented some much-desired gameplay footage for the upcoming Resident Evil 4 remake. For the most part, the game certainly evokes memories of the 2004 survival horror classic. But, as expected, there are some very clear changes (and not just graphically). The remake is putting on a much more serious air and, while still campy, it's not quite as campy as the original. At least, not from what we see in the new trailers. That's not to say the Resident Evil 4 remake is devoid of precious camp in its gameplay trailer. Oh no. In the pivotal early scene in the game, where Leon is being chased by furious Ganados, he does belt out a one-liner or two. "Bill me for the repairs later," he yells to no one in particular after lighting a poor cow on fire by shooting an overhead lightbulb. Some of the cheesier lines are also heard in an accompanying story trailer. I guess we'll know how well the original's goofy charm meshe...
