2K Is Reportedly Planning Lego Sports And Racing Games, First Coming In 2022
Are you ready for Lego bicycle kicks and massive Lego riots after a controversial red card? 2K Games is hoping so, having reportedly secured the rights to adapt Lego into a variety of sports and racing titles. The first of these is apparently coming this year with a very experienced developer in charge.
According to VGC, 2K Games signed a “new multi-game partnership with Lego” that will see the company producing a number of licensed titles, the first of which are a soccer game and an open-world racing game. The soccer game, planned for release this year, is reportedly being developed by Sumo Digital, while the racing game is in the works at 2K’s own studio Visual Concepts. It’s a somewhat odd decision on paper, seeing as Sumo Digital has made multiple racing games and Visual Concepts has worked exclusively on sports titles since 2007.
The games would not be the first Lego soccer or racing games, but they would be the first in a very long time. Aside from a Forza Horizon …
Difficulty Of Diablo 4's Abbatoir Of Zir Event Is "Pretty Excessive," So It's Getting A Major Nerf
After player feedback and complaints, Diablo IV’s meant-to-be-hard Abbatoir of Zir event is having its difficulty significantly scaled down.
The Abbatoir of Zir event kicked off on December 5 as part of Diablo IV’s vampire-themed Season 2, and was intended as a way for max-level players with optimal gear to further challenge themselves after having already conquered the game’s level 100 Nightmare dungeons. Even so, players complained about just how much harder the event–which functions similarly to Greater Rifts in Diablo III in that players must kill a certain number of enemies within a time limit–was to the game’s other endgame activities.

Alien- Romulus Will Release On VHS, Something No Major Studio Has Done In 18 Years
It’s apparently been 18 years since a major studio has released a movie on VHS, but that drought will be broken when Alien: Romulus comes out for the outdated platform on December 3. That’s right: An actual tape of the sci-fi horror movie is getting made, though it will be a limited edition.
The official Alien account on X shared that Alien: Romulus writer/director Fede Álvarez revealed the special VHS release at Beyond Fest over the weekend. Artist Matt Ferguson has created the cover for the tape, which will come out at the same time as the Alien: Romulus Blu-ray. The previous major studio release on VHS was reportedly A History of Violence in 2006, according to Inverse. 20th Century Studios–now owned by Disney–is behind the Alien: Romulus VHS launch.

iPhones Might Soon Drop Lightning Cables
It’s looking even more likely iPhones will soon drop lightning cables, as all smartphones sold in the European Union will have to use USB-C ports by fall 2024. This will include Apple’s iPhone and other electronic devices such as portable video game consoles, tablets, laptops, etc.
According to The Verge, this legislation has been in the works for more than a decade, with both parties agreeing to make the change. The legislation will still need to be approved by both the European Union Parliament and Council later this year, though it seems very likely the law will pass.
It was previously reported that the current Apple products that still use lightning chargers are Airpods, Apple TV remote, the MagSafe battery pack, the MagSafe Duo charger, and the iPhone. The iPad Pro, iPad Air, iPad Mini, and Macs have already switched to USB-C.
Last year Apple openly criticized the move, telling Reuters that the legislation “stifles innovation rather than encouraging …
Inside Review
A world, broken at the hands of technological progress, decays in silence and darkness. Cowed and enslaved people shuffle mindlessly through the streets. Overseers dressed in masks and black clothes stand at the corners, waiting for one of the slaves to fall out of line, watching the soulless masses as they are forced to jump and dance. A featureless boy in the midst of it all walks through this dystopia wearing a red shirt, one of the only touches of color in this oppressive world.
This is Inside, the second game from Limbo developer Playdead. Like Limbo, the gameplay is simple: you have to walk, jump, and grab objects in order to solve puzzles and overcome obstacles. Ultimately, however, the game is about your journey through a tyrannical, unknowable, and apocalyptic world. Over the course of a few hours, you descend ever deeper into the heart of a malicious and immense construct that threatens to suffocate agency and humanity.
Judge Approves Activision Blizzard's $18 Million Settlement In Gender Discrimination And Harassment Case
In September 2021, Activision Blizzard agreed to terms to settle one of its high-profile gender discrimination lawsuits, and that settlement has now been approved. A federal court on Tuesday announced that it would approve Activision Blizzard’s proposed settlement with the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), which is the next step toward creating an $18 million fund to compensate and make amends to workers affected by gender discrimination and harassments claims within the company.
Under the terms of the agreement, Activision will create an $18 million fund for eligible claimants and take steps to enhance its “policies, practices, and training” to help prevent harassment and discrimination in the future. Additionally, Activision Blizzard said it will work with a “neutral, third-party equal employment opportunity consultant” to provide oversight on Activision Blizzard’s compliance. This person will be a non-Activision Blizzard employee approved by the EEOC. This …
Lady Gaga Says She And Joaquin Phoenix "Tore Up" And Revised Joker 2's Script
In just under a month, Joker: Folie à Deux will introduce movie fans to Lady Gaga’s incarnation of Harley Quinn opposite Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck/Joker. While Gaga is a veteran musician and singer, this is only her third major film in a leading role. But Gaga got an unexpected education in collaborative filmmaking from Phoenix when they rewrote lines from the script during production.
“We’d very often meet in Joaquin’s trailer and sometimes we would just tear the script up and start all over,” Gaga told Vogue. “It was a really cool, liberating process.” Director and screenwriter Todd Phillips confirmed Gaga’s account and gave an example of how their process worked.
“My line about Joaquin is that he’s the tunnel at the end of the light,” said Phillips. “You think, ‘Okay, this scene works, let’s just go shoot it. And Joaquin’s like, ‘No, no, no, let’s just have a quick meeting about it,’ and it’s three hours later and you’re rewriting it on a napkin. What’s great …
