Tremble before the magnificence of today’s show! We speak to the design director behind Star Wars Battlefront, Clements laments his poor Metal Gear Solid skills, and a Dark Tower spoilercast concludes the program. There’s so much content here today, you better get started early. Enjoy!

Imagine the eerie Red Forest of Chernobyl, a reminder of how quickly mankind can render a tranquil, verdant landscape uninhabitable for centuries. That’s why the setting of a Fallout game is as important as anything else – and why the prospect of an irradiated Boston is so exciting. Like the Capital Wasteland and New Vegas before it, Fallout 4’s Boston delivers a similarly novel experience. After all, this...
The release of free, post-launch content for Halo 5: Guardians begins this month with the first drop: Battle of Shadow and Light, which includes the stealthy new “Shinobi” Ninja-themed armor, some legendary Light Rifle firepower and perhaps most importantly, the arrival of Big Team Battle maps, modes and mayhem. There are tons of new items added to and unlocked in this month’s drop, including all-new Ultra Rare and Legendary items, such as Shinobi armor and the Dying Star Light Rifle (to name but two). We have Tundra and Woodland-themed skins, a brutal (and occasionally hilarious) Shove-It assassination and dozens more...

In Rise of the Tomb Raider, professional adventuress Lara Croft is back for revenge. Tracking down the organization responsible for the death of her father means climbing some mountains, exploring ancient temples, and fighting a lot of militant bad guys.

Almost as soon as your crawl your aching bones out of the vault and into the Commonwealth wasteland of Fallout 4, you’ll need to start blasting, punching, baseball-batting, and generally kick-butting your way through all sorts of enemies. At first, you’ll be able to get by with the standard fare: 10mm pistols, clubs, and such – but if you want to go toe to toe with some seriously pissed-off super mutants, you’re going to need to pump your guns up. That’s where the crafting system comes in. Now, to craft properly, you’re going to need a few things. First, you’ll...
