Month: September 2019

We’re now in Week 9 of Fortnite Season 10, which means we’re quickly nearing the end of the season. This week’s set of challenges is called Bullseye, and as the name suggests, most of the tasks revolve around hitting targets. One takes that theme quite literally and asks you to hit an easy firing range target. If you’re not sure where those can be found, we’ve put together this map and guide showing you were to go.

Where Are The Firing Range Locations?

There are four firing ranges scattered around the island, most of which are located on the western portion of the map. There’s a sign in front of each firing range, so you can easily tell when you’ve found one. If you need a little nudging in the right direction, however, we’ve marked down all of the firing ranges we’ve found on the map below.

• Southwest of Haunted Hills
• Directly south of Snobby Shores
• Southern portion of Polar Peak
• Just north of Lucky Landing

How To Complete The Challenge

Once you know where the firing ranges are located, head to one and step on the button next to the sign. That’ll cause targets to appear. For the standard version of this challenge, all you need to do is shoot one of the easy (closer) targets. The more challenging Prestige version–which you’ll unlock after completing all seven regular challenges–requires you to hit a hard target, but this too should be easy enough.

The rest of Week 9’s challenges are all fairly straightforward, but the other one that may give you some trouble if you don’t know where to look is to land on different bullseyes. These are painted on the ground in different corners of the island, so if you need help finding them, be sure to check out our bullseye locations guide.

Season 10 of Fortnite is set to end on October 6, so you have until then to complete any remaining challenges from this season. If you need help finishing any, we’ve rounded up all of our maps and guides for this season’s trickier tasks in our complete Fortnite Season 10 challenges guide.

The spooky spiritual continuation of the Creepshow brand has landed on Shudder, resurrected by Walking Dead EP and special effects makeup maestro Greg Nicotero (who mentored under Creepshow’s George Romero and Tom Savini), and, well, it’s fun!

Is it scary? Not particularly, but then Creepshow was never about traveling deep into the heart of terror. It’s basically top-shelf schlock, all with a campy crust designed to evoke old EC horror comics. Oh, and notable names. Not A-List players, but stalwart, recognizable genre mainstays added to elevate the unease.

And as always with Creepshow, there’s no solid explanation for why the terrible things happen (usually to terrible people). No “ancient Mayan curse” or “someone pissed off a wizard” style of reasoning is provided. It may frustrate some, but it’s one of Creepshow’s hallmarks — the lack of true depth (meant in the best possible way, of course). An alcoholic dad can just, you know, turn into a grey mutating slush monster that can split apart and multiply to the point of causing an apocalypse. A child’s dollhouse can just come with a zombie head that runs (rolls?) amok and slaughters a plastic family. These things just are.

Star Wars isn’t just one of the most famous movie franchises of all time, it’s also inspired some of the best video games ever made — and also a bunch of pretty bad ones. Like the eternal battle between good and evil space wizards, for every Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic there’s a Masters of Teras Kasi; for every Jedi Knight II there’s a Kinect Star Wars; and for every Star Wars: Battlefront II there’s a Star Wars Battlefront II. So, as we get our first look at the new hope for gaming that is Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order, let’s witness the power of the fully armed and operational video game-reviewing station that is IGN and look back at every time we’ve weighed in on a Star Wars game. Once you’ve refreshed your memory, let us know which game stands out as your all-time favorite.

It’s been a big week for The Last of Us news: The Last of Us Part 2 got a release date and a new trailer, and we also learned Joel is returning in the sequel (although Ellie is the focus this time around). To top it all off, developer Naughty Dog has announced some free stuff, new merchandise, and a PlayStation Store sale to get fans even more excited about Part 2.

Notably, there’s a new limited-edition, polyresin Ellie statue that you can pre-order directly from Dark Horse Comics. The Ellie statue is 12 inches tall and was designed by Naughty Dog character artists. It features Ellie poised with her bow and arrow and comes with a round terrain base and certificate of authenticity. Listed at $180, the statue is currently sold out at Dark Horse but will hopefully come back into stock for anyone hoping to snag it for themselves. It’s expected to start shipping between May and August of next year.

Dark Horse is also publishing a new art book, The Art of The Last of Us Part 2, which, similar to the compendium they made for the first game, includes hundreds of pieces of original concept art, character designs, and more from the game. It’ll be available to pre-order starting Monday, September 30, and will release March 3, 2020. If you never picked up the official art book for the first game, it’s currently on sale for $19.95 at Amazon, although it’s temporarily out of stock, which means you can still place your order but shipping will be delayed.

There are also deals and freebies to be had, including a new dynamic PS4 theme for The Last of Us Part 2 that you can download for free right now. The “Grunge” theme features Ellie in different situations and has a grainy, black-and-white filter to it. All other The Last of Us Part 2 avatars and themes are half off on PSN right now.

Finally, the PlayStation Gear Store has new merch for The Last of Us Part 2 available now to purchase, including Joel and Ellie graphic T-shirts and a logo hat. Use promo code OUTBREAK to get 20% off all The Last of Us items in the store. And if you’re a PS Plus member, don’t forget you can snag The Last of Us Remastered (and MLB The Show 19) for free starting October 1.

The Last of Us Part 2 is available to pre-order now–be sure to check out our pre-order guide for all the details on its pre-order bonuses, special editions, and more.

In a heartwarming moment for Smallville fans, Tom Welling and Erica Durance finally reunited on the set of Arrow’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event.

Durance posted a picture of the pair on Instagram, saying “So, I was just minding my own business, and I ran into this guy,” before continuing, “Laughed until I cried! So much fun.”

A Smallville reunion isn’t the only Superman throwback waiting for fans during the Arrow crossover, as another former Kryptonian, Superman Returns star Brandon Routh, recently posted a silhouette of himself in costume to Instagram.

Sony is developing a Spider-Man spin-off movie based on the mutant Madame Web.

Per Collider, the film will be written by Morbius scribes Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless. Madame Web, also known as Cassandra Webb, made her first appearance in Amazing Spider-Man #210, which debuted back in 1980. She was created by writer Dennis O’Neil and iconic artist John Romita Jr.

For a look at every Spider-Man movie in development, check out the gallery below:

Madame Web, who is sometimes depicted as an elderly blind woman, has psychic abilities, including telepathy and clairvoyance. Over the years, Web has interacted with popular comic book characters like Juggernaut, Jessica Jones, and Electro. No casting information or release date has been revealed for the film.

It’s Outbreak Day, the unofficial celebration of Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us series, and the studio celebrated with a behind-the-scenes look at The Last of Us 2. In the video, the team sheds more light on the story and some new gameplay mechanics for the upcoming sequel.

It starts with what appears to be early in the game, with Ellie and her friend Dina living in Jackson. The video mentions that Joel is living there too, though we’ve only just seen him for the first time in the latest story trailer. The first part of the story takes place with Ellie and Dina exploring an area through the snow, and apparently this is where Ellie and Dina express their feelings for each other.

Though that’s a tender sentiment, the mission itself is dangerous. Naughty Dog noted that it wanted to make enemies more threatening this time around, so even runners are more threatening. Ellie has new capabilities to her advantage, like increased agility and the ability to squeeze through small spaces. A new workbench also serves as the up-close look at your arsenal as you upgrade weapons. Later in the gameplay portion, we see enemy dogs who can track your scent, as opposed to most enemies who can only see or hear you.

The Last of Us 2 is coming February 21, 2020, and we got extended hands-on time with it. You can now download a new free dynamic theme. We also received word, however, that the game won’t include multiplayer.
