At long last, The Sixth Sense and Signs are finally getting the 4K Blu-ray treatment this year. Both films are being restored in HDR from their original camera negatives, and if you’re looking to watch M. Night Shyamalan’s breakout hit and one of his weirder flicks, you can preorder them now at Amazon ahead of their October 22 release. Both releases are currently priced at $46, but you can expect the price to drop before they arrive, and you’ll be charged the lowest offered price when your preorder ships. Along with 4K discs, these releases come with standard Blu-ray and digital copies. The new editions arrive shortly before Shyamalan’s latest film, Trap, releases on 4K Blu-ray.

When I think of developer MachineGames, I think of dual-wielding shotguns in its Wolfenstein games, sprinting down tight corridors with guns blazing as the walls get a fresh coat of Nazi blood. After all, MachineGames’ entire portfolio up to this point has been built on the brazen revival of Wolfenstein–a series of five no-holds-barred, blood-soaked action thrill-rides. And damn did it do it well. It’s why I was caught by surprise when seeing its next game, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, is putting an emphasis on more methodical combat that will have you solving puzzles and using the environment as your weapon, rather than shooting your way out of every scenario and being covered in Nazi blood in the process (’tis a shame).”It is always a big challenge to go from something known, into the unknown of what the Indiana Jones game was for us,” Indiana Jones and the Great Circle’s design director, Jens Andersson, told GameSpot at Gamescom 2024. “It’s tough, because the way [MachineGames] is used to working–how we build levels, how we design enemies–everything is coming from this action [focus]. And now we’re coming at it from a different side. So it took a long time. Like, hones…

If you’re one of the many folks who have been experiencing superhero fatigue in recent years, it may actually be that it’s not the superheroes themselves that you’re tired of. Instead, it might simply be that you’re over all these empty spectacles that don’t have anything to say. Entertainment is good, but entertainment with substance is better. Fortunately for you, the complete run of the early 1990s cartoon Captain Planet, including all six seasons, is being released on DVD for the first time on October 15. Preorders are live now at Amazon.

Black Ops 6 arrives on October 25, and tons of new information was revealed for multiplayer and Warzone during Activision’s Call of Duty: Next event on August 28, including live gameplay featuring Treyarch’s new omnimovement system. GameSpot was able to attend the event and speak with Treyarch about the changes in development for the new shared engine and how it enabled the studio to create Call of Duty’s new advanced movement.The last Treyarch game was 2020’s Black Ops Cold War, which was a Call of Duty that was created on a shorter development cycle and required a pivot to work-from-home conditions during the pandemic. Now, Treyarch is back in the action again with an extended four-year development cycle for Black Ops 6, and it is the studio’s first game on Call of Duty’s new shared engine, which was introduced with 2022’s Modern Warfare 2 reboot.

Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer in a recent interview commented on the fact that he passed on acquiring games like Destiny and Guitar Hero for Xbox. The CEO went on to say he’s made “some of the worst game-choice decisions” but that he ultimately has no regrets.His comments came as part of an interview at PAX West titled “Story Time with Phil Spencer,” where the head of Xbox discussed some of his favorite games from over the years, one of which is Destiny. Spencer said he has mixed emotions and stories around Destiny. The shooter didn’t initially click for him when he first played it, despite having a close relationship with developer Bungie, he said. He once shared a floor at Microsoft with Bungie founders Alex Seropian and Jason Jones and “learned a ton from just being around Bungie,” Spencer said.He said Microsoft did receive a pitch from Bungie to publish Destiny, but Xbox ultimately decided not to sign-on. It would take the game’s House of Wolves expansion for Spencer to come around on Destiny.”It’s a game that I’ll always love and a team I’ll always have a ton of affinity for,” Spencer said.Guitar Hero was another major franchise Spencer said he initially had doubt…

Content warning: This article mentions self-harm.Longtime players of EA Sports games may recall how the publisher’s famous slogan, “It’s in the game,” is actually a shortened version of the full sentiment one would hear upon booting up any of its many sports games across several decades: “If it’s in the game, it’s in the game.” This simple phrase worked well for a long time as a way to tout authenticity. If you’re seeing it on the field (or rink, court, et al), you can bet it’ll be in the video game simulation. That was the promise anyway.But it worked. The soundbyte is iconic; I can still hear it in my head even as EA dropped the first half of that slogan years ago, and today, the Madden team’s North Star is, arguably more than ever, authenticity. It’s a word that comes up constantly whenever I speak to members of the EA Orlando (formerly Tiburon) team. But this year’s NFL season is set to introduce a stark contrast between what’s in the game and what’s in the game: Guardian Caps.Invented in 2010, Guardian Caps represent the latest in player-safety equipment. These bulky, quilt-like coverings go over a player’s traditional helmet and are meant to protect…
