What Did You Think of Tonight’s South Park?

South Park’s 23rd season continued with another Cartman and Randy-heavy episode this week. With plant-based meats all the rage in town, Cartman is the only one not happy about the prospect of sustainable eating. In fact, this is the week Cartman finally has that overdue heart attack.

We’ll have our review of “Let Them Eat Goo” up a bit later tonight. Until then, let us know what you thought of the new episode in the comments below.

Seth Rogen Responds to Iowa Teen Arrested with Superbad ‘McLovin’ Fake ID

A man was arrested for drinking in a bar underage with a “McLovin” fake ID, and Seth Rogen couldn’t resist making a joke.

A 20-year-old was found in a bar early Friday morning in Iowa — where the legal drinking age is 21 — with a fake Hawaii ID under the name “McLovin” and the date of birth of June 3, 1981. The ID is a reference to the movie Superbad, which Rogen produced, co-wrote and acted in. The filmmaker took to Twitter to voice his response.

“My work here is done,” Rogen wrote while sharing a news article of the incident.

Pokemon Go November 2019 Community Day Announced, Features Chimchar

GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.

The first details for Pokemon Go‘s November Community have been announced. Next month’s event is set for Saturday, November 16, and the featured Pokemon this time will be Chimchar, the Fire-type starter from Pokemon Diamond and Pearl.

Throughout November’s Community Day, Chimchar will appear in the wild much more often than normal, making this a good opportunity to stock up on Chimchar Candy, which you’ll need if you’re hoping to evolve it into Infernape. As usual, if you can evolve it up to two hours after the Community Day ends, your Infernape will know a special event-exclusive move.

November’s Community Day will also mark your first chance to catch a Shiny Chimchar in the game. On top of that, Pokemon eggs will hatch at a quarter of their normal distance during the event, and as always, any Lure Modules you use will remain active for three hours rather than their usual 30 minutes.

Like the past two Community Days, November’s event will take place early in the day, from 11 AM to 2 PM local time. You can read more details about November’s Community Day on the official Pokemon website.

Of course, that’s not the only event on the horizon for Pokemon Go. The game’s annual Halloween celebration runs from October 17 to November 1. During that time, you’ll be able to encounter costume-wearing versions of Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle in Raid Battles, while Pikachu wearing a Mimikyu costume can be found in the wild. There will also be increased Ghost and Dark Pokemon spawns, and the Legendary Darkrai will make its debut in five-star Raids.

Following the Halloween event, Niantic is bringing the Regi trio–Regirock, Registeel, and Regice–back to Raids from November 1-4, ahead of Regigigas’ debut in EX Raids later in the month. If you want to encounter Regigigas early, Niantic is holding a Colossal Discovery Special Research event on November 2–but you need to pay to participate.

If you’re looking to upgrade your graphics card or buy a whole new gaming laptop for 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, you’re in luck. Nvidia is currently giving away Modern Warfare for free if you purchase an RTX 20 Series graphics card or select gaming laptop/desktop.

Though we said “select,” it’s no small number. A wide variety of gaming laptops are eligible for this deal, including great laptops from Asus, Razer, and Acer. Nvidia regularly offers this sort of promotion. In July, Nvidia graphics cards came with digital codes for Control and Wolfenstein: Youngblood.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare releases October 25, so if you order now, you should be able to start playing right at launch.

The current deal is only offered at select retailers, including Best Buy. While there are plenty of graphics cards and laptops to choose from to take advantage of this deal, we’ve highlighted some of our favorites below (some of which are on sale, too).

Every Free Pokemon Announced For Sword And Shield So Far

GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.

Pokemon Sword and Shield are less than a month away. The Gen 8 games arrive on Nintendo Switch on November 15, and much like previous installments, it looks like they’ll receive plenty of free Pokemon and other bonuses after they launch.

The Pokemon Company has already announced a handful of free Pokemon you’ll be able to get in Sword and Shield, and there will presumably be even more on the way in the future. We’ve rounded up all the free gifts announced for the titles so far below, and we’ll continue to update this list as more are revealed.

In the meantime, a few freebies are still up for grabs for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. If you have the 3DS games, you’ll also be able to snag a Shiny Solgaleo or Shiny Lunala from participating stores beginning October 21.

Gigantamax-Capable Pikachu / Eevee

If you have save data from Pokemon: Let’s Go Pikachu or Let’s Go Eevee on your Nintendo Switch, you’ll be able to receive a free Pikachu or Eevee in Sword and Shield. You can claim the free Pokemon from the Wild Area Station roughly two hours into the adventure, and these are capable of Gigantamaxing. However, the free Pikachu and Eevee cannot evolve.

Gigantamax-Capable Meowth

If you purchase a copy of Pokemon Sword or Shield by January 15, 2020, you’ll be able to receive a free Meowth that’s capable of Gigantamaxing. You can claim the Pokemon until that date by selecting Mystery Gift from the games’ main menu and choosing the “Get via internet” option. Like the aforementioned Pikachu and Eevee, this Meowth cannot evolve.

Zombieland Double Tap Review Round-Up

It’s been 10 years since Zombieland first hit the big screen, and the cast from the undead action-comedy is all returning to the apocalyptic wasteland for another round of zombie-slaying. But is this new flick any good?

In the Zombieland sequel, Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Wichita (Emma Stone), and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) are back and traversing the undead hellscape: smashing flesh-eating heads, meeting new friends, and just trying to survive. The film was directed by Ruben Fleischer (Venom) and written by Dave Callaham (Wonder Woman 1984), Rhett Reese (Zombieland, Deadpool), and Paul Wernick (Zombieland, Deadpool).

The reviews for Zombieland: Double Tap are in, and the movie hits theaters on Friday, October 18, and the general consensus is that the movie is funny, but not as entertaining as the first movie. Here’s what the critics thought.

GameSpot — 6/10

Director Ruben Fleischer and writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick got the comedy right, but this time around, they failed to craft a convincing world around it.

[Full review]

Entertainment Weekly — B

Director Ruben Fleischer (Venom) is herding them all toward some kind of ultimate man-vs.-zombie showdown, but the action sequences often feel like the least necessary thing about the movie. For all the flying intestines and skulls that split open like past-due melons, Double Tap has another squishy organ at its center: a big, goofball heart.

[Full review]

IGN — 8/10

Zombieland: Double Tap is a riot, and a lot of that is due to Zoey Deutch and her character, Madison. While it doesn’t quite achieve classic status in its own right, when it comes to sequels that do the original film justice, it is up there. It’s worth the wait, your time, and your money.

[Full review]

Empire — 3/5

It’s often enjoyable, occasionally very funny, and has an energy and verve sorely lacking from Fleischer’s last few films. So, while it’s simply, plainly, not as good as the first movie, Zombieland is no longer the odd one out on Fleischer’s CV.

[Full review]

IndieWire — C+

After 10 years of anticipation, it would have been nice to see a zombie movie with more on its mind than the same goofy undead routine.
