Though GameStop is primarily known as the last remaining chain retailer of video games in the US, it’s also become a pretty sweet destination for collectibles of all different varieties. As part of its weekly sale, GameStop is offering a buy two, get one free promotion on a ton of its collectibles through January 18. All of the collectibles in the promotion are on clearance already, so you’re getting even more bang for your buck here.

Because the sale focuses on clearance collectibles and not a specific type of product, the items in the promotion are quite random. There are some gems to be found, though. A number of the awesome “Movie Moments” Funko Pops are featured in the sale, including Batman and the Joker’s clash int the 1989 film and the banquet room scene from Ghostbusters.

My favorite Funko Pop in the promotion is this extremely cursed Spongebob Squarepants set, which comes with his pineapple house. If Spongebob isn’t your thing, here are some of our other favorite Pops in the sale.

It will still be a while before viewers get to see Showtime’s Halo TV series debut, but it’s actually, officially happening now. After it was revealed in December that production had begun on the upcoming show, Showtime president of entertainment Gary Levine has shared a quick update.

Appearing at the TCA winter press tour, Levine revealed that he and his fellow president of Entertainment Jana Winograde had recently traveled to the set of the series, noting it is “is currently shooting all over the city of Budapest.” Unfortunately, there was no footage from the series to screen, but Levine and Winograde did come with the first photo of Pablo Schreiber in costume as Master Chief.

Unfortunately, the image was for viewing in the room only and will not be released widely at this point. In the photo, Chief is seated on a ship in his full armor–helmet included. According to Levine, it’s Schreiber in the costume, which looks like a spot-on recreation of Chief’s classic armor.

There’s been a lot of discussion over whether Master Chief will unmask at some point, revealing Schreiber’s face. Of course, in the games, Chief never removes his helmet. When asked by GameSpot about whether viewers will see Chief’s face in 2018, Levine offered, “It is a key question and an important part of our series is all I’ll say.”

After the success of The Mandalorian, which saw Pedro Pascal remain entirely hidden under a Mandalorian helmet, save for one small scene in the Season 1 finale, it seems entirely possible we will never actually see Chief’s face.

Of course, Schreiber isn’t the only cast member in the Showtime series. We have a detailed breakdown of the announced cast you can check out. However, the most notable character, after Chief, is Natasha McElhone as Dr. Catherine Halsey/Cortana. The artificial intelligence that guides Chief on his journeys will play a big role in the series.

While there’s no release date for Halo announced at this point, it’s expected to debut on Showtime in 2021.

Rainbow Six Siege had a brief downtime on PC to implement a new patch with a number of fixes. The 4.2 update (aka Y4S4.2) is now live on PC, with a PS4 and Xbox One release date to be announced.

The main focus of the patch is the so-called “Clash Exploit,” a game-breaking bug that made the shielded operator overpowered. The exploit allowed players to fire her secondary weapon while her shield was still up, which made her almost unstoppable. Ubisoft disabled her temporarily while it worked out a fix, so with this patch live she’ll be playable again on all platforms.

The full patch notes also list a number of other fixes, including smaller-scale fixes to various operators, level design, and UI. You can check out the full patch notes below.

Meanwhile, the Siege team is undergoing some significant leadership changes, as game directors Xavier Marquis and Alexandre Remy recently announced they were stepping back to work on other projects. The new game director, Leroy Athanassoff, will be leading the project going forward. We already know Ubisoft plans to bring the game to PS5 and Xbox Series X. A separate team is currently working on the PvE spin-off Rainbow Six Quarantine.

Minecraft has been a fertile playground for ambitious projects, but one recently unveiled mod is particularly magical. The Floo Network modders revealed a trailer for their “Minecraft School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,” a massive recreation of Harry Potter landmarks and locales, with activities to match.

The gameplay trailer shows familiar locations like Hogwarts Castle, complete with the Great Hall and twisting staircases, Hagrid’s hut, the Quidditch pitch, and Diagon Alley. It even recreates parts of London, including the train station that takes you to Platform 9 3/4. The visuals seem largely based on the settings as presented in the series of films.

But you can actually do more than simply explore the castle grounds. You can also scavenge for magical loot and solve mysteries in the castle, and fight against Death Eaters with wand projectiles. The team is aiming to release the map by the end of January.

The mod gives another layer of adventuring to the core Minecraft game, which has retained its popularity since its official release in 2011. Meanwhile, Mojang is planning a new type of co-op Minecraft adventure with Minecraft Dungeons, which is releasing this April.
