Few things have gone right this year, so it's understandable that many gamers hoped that Sony's newest console would be wrapped and ready for them on Christmas morning. After all, the PlayStation 5's November launch should've set it up to be the ultimate holiday gift, but a significant stock shortage has made it exceptionally difficult to find for those who weren't able to preorder it prior to release.
It's fitting that 2020 would end with one of gaming's most highly-anticipated titles of all time finally releasing only for everything to go horribly wrong.
A few weeks after launch, it appears that Cyberpunk 2077 has become one of the biggest disappointments in video game history. When the ambitious role-playing shooter works, it can be a compelling experience that rivals some of the genre's best, but it's that whole getting it to work part that poses the most substantial problems.
One of the greatest parts of the holiday season is sitting around watching the myriad of classic Christmas movies. There are so many that can be classified as essential viewing for fans of cheery cinema, but a recent poll has shown that one particular Christmas pic stands above the rest – and it's quite possible that it's exactly the one you expected.
Not many games have generated hype quite like CD Projekt Red's highly-anticipated role-playing title Cyberpunk 2077. Having spent nearly a decade in production and suffering a bevy of delays, eager fans have had plenty of time to build the game up in their minds and theorize about all the ways it would push the envelope. But sadly, after finally releasing earlier this month, day one buyers were met with quite an unexpected outcome.
If you've been keeping an eye on gaming news lately, you've probably seen just how bad things have gotten with CD Projekt Red's long-anticipated role-playing title Cyberpunk 2077. Hell, before the game even released, the developer began receiving some fairly intense backlash for what many still feel is questionable trans representation, but that was just the beginning.
There was a time when Rick Grimes was synonymous with AMC's The Walking Dead, but after the show had been on the air for nearly a decade, actor Andrew Lincoln felt that he'd put enough of his life into it and wanted to be around his family back in the UK more. As such, he bowed out of the series during the ninth mid-season finale, with an ambiguous final scene that left fans clamoring to see him again.
It's easy to be appreciative of everything Netflix has added so far this month considering just how much entertainment value has been included. December's brought such huge titles as the star-filled action thriller Triple 9, classic Adam Sandler comedies 50 First Dates and Little Nicky, underrated Jason Momoa movie Braven and a host of Christmas-related content sure to put you in the holiday spirit, among many other things.
When Chadwick Boseman suddenly passed away from colon cancer earlier this year at the age of 43, fans of the actor were equally surprised and distressed by the news. Boseman had not shared his cancer diagnosis publicly due to being a private person who didn't feel the need to upset his followers or bring too much attention to himself. Nevertheless, the loss of the Black Panther star left a gaping hole in the hearts of people worldwide who feared they'd never again see his face in a film.
