Fortunately we have organized all the premiere dates here for you, so it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out which shows will receive your time. If you need a bit of help in deciding what to watch, make sure to check out a trimmed-down selection in our premiere pi
Before the Alien franchise was full of action-packed set-pieces and universe-spanning conflict, it was focused on horror. Essentially a slasher movie set on a spaceship, the first Alien goes for a decidedly scarier vibe than its successors, and that same tone is captured perfectly in the video SLG game Money guide Alien: Isolati
The phrase ‘development hell’ is one that is likely to send shivers down the spines of gamers everywhere. When games face severe delays during the development process with no finite end date in sight, it is often a death knell, resulting in the cancelation of some very ambitious proje
From the same company that created The Witcher came Cyberpunk 2077 , a solid first-person RPG set in the fictional Night City in the year 2077, where megacorporations rule most of the world, and nearly every person has cybernetics of some sort grafted onto their body. Players control V, a customizable character that is possessed by the AI spirit of dead rocker Johnny Silverhand, who is deadset on taking over their b
Your goal is to fix five generators in the level that will power the door leading to safety and get out. The levels are procedurally generated each time, though, so you’re never going to be able to memorize the layout and map the most efficient routes; you’re going to need to balance exploration with stealth in order to find the generators without getting spotted and winding up on one of the killer’s meat hooks. Every time you run, you leave a trail through the woods the killer will see and follow straight to you, so when you’re looking around, tread lightly. Fixing a generator doesn’t require much more than time and a bit of timing as a prompt similar to the Gears of War active reload pops up occasionally to make sure you’re still paying attention. Missing that prompt is a surefire way to get the killer on your tail as it causes the generator to make a loud noise with a visual icon on the killer’s display.
Frictional Games made a name for itself with Amnesia: The Dark Descent , a title that is largely responsible for the resurgence the horror genre has enjoyed in recent years. Its followup effort, Soma , may not have generated the same kind of buzz as Amnesia , but it is arguably the better, more polished game. Set in an underwater research facility filled with strange creatures, Soma is less about jump scares and more about building tension and scaring players with pure psychological hor
The holidays are now over, and 2014 is upon us, and with it comes a television premiere/return schedule even more complicated than in the fall. As old and new favorites return from break, even more old and new shows will begin to premiere, and it will be up to you to decide what to and, more importantly, what not to wa
The now-defunct Telltale Games built its games around the idea of player choice having an impact on the narrative, but as many players discovered, those promises were mostly just smoke and mirrors. Until Dawn , on the other hand, incorporates player choice in a truly meaningful way, with players able to decide the fate of basically every playable character in the game. Playing like a big budget Telltale-style adventure game, Until Dawn is a fantastic homage to 80s slasher films with an engaging story full of surprises and scares, and it's one of the most essential horror games of the last few ye
Premiere Picks: Helix (Syfy) from Battlestar Galatica creator Ronald D. Moore; True Detective (HBO), starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson; Sherlock (PBS) season 3; Black Sails (Starz); and (A&E) and BBC America’s Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond mini-ser
Whereas most Alien video games are about fighting waves of xenomorphs or directly controlling the deadly creatures, Alien: Isolation instead makes players virtually defenseless as they attempt to survive against not only a xenomorph, but also an army of violent androids. The alien is still the real star of the show though, and its invincibility and unpredictable nature make it one of the most terrifying monsters in gaming hist
What should be a relatively uneventful job takes a turn for the demented, as the player is harassed and pursued by animatronic animals that appear to be possessed. It may rely heavily on jump scares, but there's no denying Five Nights at Freddy 's ability to genuinely scare its fans, and it's all backed up by some interesting, expansive, and surprisingly deep l
January starts off with the highly-anticipated premiere of Community season 5, and then the world of television jumps backs in to gear as all of your favorite shows begin making their return from the holiday hia
