I just checked the statistics for the Panty & Stocking S2 trailer on Twitter...

It has 4.4 million views, 47,000 retweets and 92,000 likes already, and it's been slightly over 10 hours since the trailer dropped. The Superman (2025) trailer on the official Superman Twitter account has 18.6 million views, 40,000 retweets and 124,000 likes, just for comparison, and that trailer dropped 5 days ago.

I'm actually dumbfounded. That is like absurd, why tf is Panty & Stocking S2 having somewhat comparable numbers to a Superman movie?! TRIGGER must be very happy with the reception that trailer is getting...

Fortnite fans are not happy right now.

Yesterday, Master Chief from Halo returned to the game after over 900 days of unavailability.

Since his introduction, there has been a style for the Chief that turns his armor black. You got it by playing as Master Chief on a Xbox Series console/Cloud Gaming.

Since this past week it hasn’t worked and Epic revealed the promotion ended, meaning no one can get the Black armor anymore, even if you had Chief prior to his return.

People are unhappy, especially since the original promotion said there was no time limit and the change was not communicated until a few hours after his return.

It is unknown if the other console skins (Marcus Fenix, Kratos, and Aloy) will also lose the ability to get their extra styles, although at the moment people can still get the styles for Kratos and Aloy.
And they reversed course. The Matte Black style is unlockable once again by playing on a Xbox Series console or via Xbox Cloud Gaming after getting the outfit.

Also the MCU versions of Spider Man and MJ will return tonight.

Got all the collectibles I was missing in Shadow Gens, the only achievements I'm missing are the ones that require you to beat both final bosses without being damaged.

I think I'll pass for now

How did you manage to s-rank Radical Highway? That level is a nightmare.
Which act and with or without wings? As Jondolio said, there are a ****ton of shortcuts and both easy and significant skips viewable if you replay the stages, I remember my second attempt at both acts having me shave off over half of my original time as I noticed stuff like act 1 and 2 having shortcuts right at the beginning that shave off 10 to 15 seconds alone, the cinematic loops being skippable, plenty of rings flying in the back goading you into flying off the roads if you dare which is noticably shorter

I tend to not use the Doom Wings since I don't really like them. And I've only even attempted Act 1.

Booooooooo coward move


In all seriousness there's some stuff you can still do without wings like the first spring having an inconspicuous hole in the wall which you can boost through leading to shortcuts or a spring hidden behind one of those blockades on the right of the road before a tunnel. It's incredibly thriling seeing those, I recommend you just take your time on a run, taking it slower than usual to scout and see what you can or can't reach, including loops you can jump past instead of running for 5 seconds

This year alone we had.

Prequels:
A Quiet Place: Day One
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
Mufasa: The Lion King
The First Omen
Wicked

Remakes/Reboots:
Hellboy: The Crooked Man
Nosferatu
Salem's Lot
Speak No Evil
The Crow
The Fall Guy
The Garfield Movie
Transformers One

Sequels:
Bad Boys: Ride or Die
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
Deadpool & Wolverine
Despicable Me 4

And again the fact 9 (10 if counting Wicked) of the highest-grossing films has been sequels.
We have more non sequels and remakes/reboots. Now, if you are talking which made the most money, then yes, sequels and remakes/reboots made the most. That’s almost always the case. Humans don’t like changes and are willing to support more of the same thing they liked before. It’s natural and normal.

Holy hell! I can't wait for my vacation next month even more now.
Where will you go? Or will you just stay home and relax?

So we most likely know when the switch 2 is getting revealed thanks to leaks…
That date seems realistic. Then launch in March
(like the Switch 1) or wait until November to make massive holiday money.

I did predict after we didn’t see it in October that we would get a January reveal and release date of March. It doesn’t need a super long cycle to be successful. Just good marketing to separate it. Which I think they know how to go about it after the Wii U.

The presentations and games can sell the difference. Plus we’ve seen the models from the factory’s and retailers. It’s not a huge change, which can help as long as the name and showcase do it justice.
