Surprise, surprise. Rebecca’s Game of the Year is Baldur’s Gate 3, and can we blame her? Not at all, especially considering that the majority of folk agreed with her when Baldur’s Gate 3 took home the GOTY award at The Game Awards. And the rest of us at VG247 can scarcely disagreee with her, despite […]
For better or worse, in the year of our lord two-thousand and twenty-three, video games are now seldom complete products. They grow, evolve, and change over time – and in many ways, challenge the traditional wisdom of giving out end-of-year awards. Is there a better example of this than Cyberpunk 2077?

The new collector’s edition of Avatar: The Way of Water in 4K comes with plenty of deleted and extended scenes, but one in particular stands out.

Marketing for the next Planet of the Apes movie, which is set to kick off a new story arc for the enduring sci-fi series, is about […]
Super Mario Run, Nintendo’s attempt at a mobile version of Mario’s classic 2D platforming, is currently running a Super Mario Bros. Wonder tie-in. Thanks to Eurogamer, I was reminded that Super Mario Run is a game that exists and you can play, and weirdest of all, it’s currently running a Super Mario Bros. Wonder crossover. […]
The Star Trek franchise seems to be doing great nowadays with TV shows and video games coming out regularly, but the film side of the business seems kind of cursed (at least that’s what Chris Pine thinks). It’s been more than seven years since Star Trek Beyond was released, yet new theatrical Star Trek projects […]
Are there any Christmas movies that aren’t about family in some shape or form? I’m sure there must be, but they normally are, especially the best ones. It’s just quite a natural thing to focus on, given that it’s meant to be the time of year that families come together, for better or worse. For […]
