One of the best and easiest gifts that you can grab during Black Friday is a microSD card with a large amount of storage space. Available at Amazon, the SanDisk 400GB microSD card is just $31 right now.
Alternatively, you can also drop a bit of extra cash on the newer SanDisk Ultra microSD card, which bumps the storage capacity up to an impressive 512GB for $40.
“Oh go on, just one more go,” screams my inner monologue as I try for what feels like the 9,000th time to rack up a gold standard time on a National A license test, “You’re only 0.15 seconds off, you can do it.” Once again I miss an apex, brake too late, or turn in too early, and I fall shy of the highest tier. I swear quietly and hit retry again. And probably several more times afterward. That’s the joy of Gran Turismo 7: You can always do better, you’ll always want to do better, and it’s just a few quick button stabs away.
In the latest entry in the PlayStation’s top-flight race series, perfection isn’t only famed producer Kazunori Yamauchi’s aim–it swiftly becomes yours. It plays as close to driving a real car as you can get on a console, and much like shaving a few seconds off your commute, or playing on your favorite road in the real world, the game draws you in with challenges, physics, and luscious visuals. The first numbered Gran Turismo since the PS3’s Gran Turismo 6…
Read moreFleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been tapped to co-star alongside Harrison Ford in the upcoming fifth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise, according to a release. Indiana Jones 5, which doesn’t yet have an official title, will hit theaters July 29, 2022.
“I’m thrilled to be starting a new adventure, collaborating with a dream team of all-time great filmmakers,” said the film’s director, James Mangold (Ford v Ferrari, Logan). “Steven, Harrison, Kathy, Frank, and John are all artistic heroes of mine. When you add Phoebe, a dazzling actor, brilliant creative voice, and the chemistry she will undoubtedly bring to our set, I can’t help but feel as lucky as Indiana Jones himself.”
This is a bit of encouraging news for the movie, which recently lost its writer in June 2020 after director Steven Spielberg reduced his role to instead be a producer May 2020. All that’s known about this new entry is it will not be a reboot or reimagining–this upc…
Read moreWhen it comes to superheroes-turned-street fighters, DC Comics’ stable of superfriends have always received the short end of the stick. While Marvel enjoys the steady success of Capcom’s legendary Vs. series, the likes of Justice League Task Force and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe have not done DC any favors. Injustice: Gods Among Us, the latest fighter from the house of Mortal Kombat, aims to break this combo with a fighting system that builds upon the lessons of MK, while also introducing a few new tricks. But for all its complexities, Injustice unfortunately falls short when compared to its contemporaries.

Read moreIt’s surreal to think that the first Lego Star Wars is inching closer to two decades old, but even more so to see a brand-new version of some of those same stories in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. Time has allowed for significant reinvention–developer Traveller’s Tales’ latest marks the biggest departure from the familiar formula that has permeated its library of Lego games. These gameplay changes enhance the familiar Lego action-adventure gameplay to make the moment-to-moment combat, platforming, and puzzle-solving more engaging. However, the breadth of content on offer does not live up to the potential of this new direction.
Core to The Skywalker Saga’s gameplay changes is a new perspective. Gone is the overhead camera, replaced by an over-the-shoulder third-person view that draws you closer into effects-laden lightsaber duels and chaotic cantina shootouts. You’re offered far more control over the action than in earlier Lego titles, with cover-base…
Read moreNetflix is developing two new projects with actor Keanu Reeves based on his BRZRKR comic book, the streamer has announced. Reeves will both produce and star first in a live-action BRZRKR film, followed up by an animated series, in which he lends his voice to the main character.
BRZRKR tells the story of an immortal warrior’s 80,000-year lifetime. The character is known only as “B” and is a half-mortal, half-god cursed to a life of violence. In the modern day, B works for the U.S. government, taking on jobs too dangerous for anyone else, while trying to find a way to bring an end to his endless journey.

Read moreLords of the Fallen cannot escape Dark Souls’ shadow, but its weighty combat and impossibly chunky art style still give it an identity of its own. Yet the shadow still looms, and in the case of Lords of the Fallen’s newest add-on, Ancient Labyrinth, it wholly swallows its imitator. That Ancient Labyrinth is so short is not, in itself, a fundamental flaw. That it is devoid of imagination and betrays the exploratory wonder of the main game, however, is unforgivable. This tiny, throwaway slice of action is a rude return to a world with far better stories to tell.
The eight-dollar asking price may sound reasonable, but it is important to understand what you are getting: a skimpy maze that amounts to three hallways, a few levers to pull, some skeletal archers, and a few other cronies to defeat. A difficult boss battle puts the cap on this miniature adventure, which includes about 30 minutes of content and a finale that stretches that half-hour into a masochistic…
