Have you ever been hooked by a TV series so hard that you rushed to IMDB to watch literally anything else starring the show’s cast of actors in hopes that it was half as good??? Because that’s how I found myself watching The Walking Dead’s Emma Bell get stuck on a ski lift above a snowy mountain in the 2010 film Frozen. And before you ask, no, there was not a single zombie in sight.

The modder who goes by Luke Ross has made full VR modes for some of the biggest blockbuster games around. He’s now decided to take them all offline, at least for now.

The modder has now been hit with another DMCA from the publisher of Ghostrunner, and has decided to suspend his entire Patreon, where access to dozens of other VR mods is…

Each new Disney Plus show set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe seems to arrive with less fanfare than the one before. It feels like even Marvel Studios has grown tired of the endless promotional cycle, and the endless parade of increasingly minor Marvel characters taking their turn on stage. Trying to sell MCU loyalists on this latest streaming series would be a challenge anyway: Wonder Man focuses on a particularly obscure Marvel hero living an unusually mundane life, with few ties to the MCU’s bigger events, and no clear place in the hype-strewn buildup to the studio’s next big event…

It’s safe to say fans have been waiting a while for this one. After it was revealed in February 2025 that the game was delayed until 2026, the team working on the Fable reboot went silent. Since then, we’ve heard practically nothing. That is, until the latest Xbox Developer Direct on Thursday, where Microsoft revealed the first proper look at the Fable reboot’s gameplay, and gave it an autumn 2026 release window. The Developer Direct included an extended presentation about the reboot from Playground Games. “Fable is Playground’s first open-world action-RPG,” studio founder and general manager Ralph Fulton explains. “Although…
