Marvel Isn’t Even Pretending That the End of Infinity War Mattered

SPOILER WARNING: We’re talking extensively about the end of Avengers: Infinity War here. If you haven’t seen it, get out while you still can.

Let’s get one thing out of the way: No one believes the end of Infinity War will stick. With a snap of his fingers, Thanos deleted half of all life in the universe and billions of dollars of profit from potential sequels, spin-offs, and merchandise. After that snap, pretty much everyone in the theater went “Oh, so Avengers 4 is about them undoing that.”

We all know it’s coming. This isn’t some great revelation. But while that’s about as safe a bet as saying “Venom won’t be in it,” it still feels incredibly strange to see Marvel, the studio who made the bold choice to end Infinity War this way, not even trying to pretend like that ending mattered.

Hulu’s Das Boot Series Is Not a Remake

Das Boot, the eight-episode miniseries being distributed in the US by Hulu, will not be a remake of the 1981 German classic, rather it will act as a sequel, taking place a year after the original film/miniseries.

This was confirmed after IGN’s own Peer Schneider tweeted out about the series, with the production company Bavaria Film responding “It’s not a remake. New submarine. New crew. New story. We would not/will not ever remake the 1981’s classic.”

Rise of the Triad Started Out as a Wolfenstein Sequel

Killing Hitler in a Wolfenstein game is about as old of a video game tradition as stomping goombas in Super Mario World. What some Wolfenstein fans may not know is there was once a significantly different kind of Wolfenstein game lying in wait, but competition between id Software and 3D Realms resulted in the release of Rise of the Triad instead. 3D Realms’ Scott Miller sat down on this month’s IGN Unfiltered to dish details on how a proper Wolfenstein sequel got derailed.

“The game was going to be called Wolfenstein: Rise of the Triad,” Miller said. “It was going to be this continuation to where Hitler was just the puppet all along, but there was this triad, a sort of cult of background leaders who were involved with all these things. id Software was like, ‘Boom, we’re in on this.’ We had an agreement, it was going along, and about eight months into it, they decided to cancel the agreement. They had the rights to do that. I think they felt like our game was going to maybe butt heads with Doom a little too much and they didn’t want that.”

Some Great Nintendo Switch Deals On The US Eshop

Everyone likes saving money, and if you’re a Nintendo Switch owner, you can get some appealing deals on the Eshop right at this very moment. But because the Eshop doesn’t do scheduled weekly sales like many other digital game sellers, the prices here go back up on different dates depending on the game. So if you see something you want, grab it. With that in mind, let’s see what Switch games we can save money on for the next few days.

Now that the NBA season has begun, you might have basketball on the brain. If so, you can channel that sporting passion into NBA 2K19, which is on sale for $40. That’s a great deal, considering the game just came out last month and normally sells for $60. If you want to add a bunch of digital extras (you can see what’s included here), you can pick up the 20th Anniversary Edition of the game for $80, down from $100.

Also on sale this week are Mega Man X Legacy Collection, which comes with games 1-4, and Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2, which finishes off the series with games 5-8. They’re on sale for $15 each, which is $5 less than you’ll have to pay when they go back up to full price on October 24.

If you’re in the mood for a spooky game to get ready for Halloween, you have several choices on sale right now. Layers of Fear: Legacy is on sale for $14. It’s an adventure game about a painter who’s slowly going mad. Darkest Dungeon, on sale for $19, also deals with the loss of sanity, but packages it in a roguelike RPG. And if creepy puzzle games are more your thing, you can grab The Room for $9.

Pokemon Go: Last Chance To Get Mewtwo

After initially being limited to the invite-only EX Raids, the Legendary Psychic Pokemon Mewtwo made its debut in standard Raid Battles last month, giving many Pokemon Go players their first opportunity to capture one. If you haven’t yet done so, your time is running out, as Mewtwo is set to leave Raids very soon.

The Legendary Psychic Pokemon is scheduled to depart from the game at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET on October 23, so you have until then to encounter one at Gyms. As is the case with all other Raid Bosses, you’ll first need to team up with other players in-person and battle it. If you manage to defeat the Legendary, you’ll earn a handful of Premier Balls and the chance to capture it.

Mewtwo remains one of the most popular–and powerful–Legendary Pokemon in the entire series, making it a formidable challenge. On top of that, one of the possible Charged Attacks it can know is Focus Blast, which is super-effective against many Pokemon that would typically have an advantage over it. Your best bet is to challenge Mewtwo using Bug, Dark, and Ghost Pokemon such as Scizor, Tyranitar, and Gengar.

A lot has been happening in Pokemon Go as of late. Earlier this week, Niantic rolled out the first wave of Gen 4 Pokemon, including the Sinnoh starters Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup. There are also a handful of region-exclusive Gen 4 monsters, which have only been appearing in certain parts of the world. No Gen 4 Legendaries have debuted in Pokemon Go just yet, but one–Giratina–was teased at the end of the game’s latest trailer, suggesting it could be on its way fairly soon.

Meanwhile, Pokemon Go’s next Community Day event takes place this Sunday, October 21. During it, players will have a much easier time of finding Beldum and hatching Pokemon. If you manage to evolve one into a Metagross, it will also learn the powerful new attack Meteor Mash. You can read everything you need to know about October’s Community Day here.

WWE Evolution: Match Card, Date, And How To Watch The First All-Women PPV

The women’s evolution in WWE has been making strides the past year, and finally, the company’s female superstars will get their own PPV, aptly named Evolution. The show will showcase current talent from the women’s roster at the company while bringing back some iconic stars from the past.

Evolution comes to the WWE Network on Sunday, October 28 at 4 PM PT / 7 PM ET / 11 PM GMT. At this time, we’re unsure if a Kickoff Show will open up the show an hour prior. WWE’s Evolution will be held at NYCB Live in Uniondale, New York. If you’re in the area, tickets are still available for the upcoming event. If you want to check out the event for yourself, you can subscribe to WWE’s streaming service for $10 a month, or sign up for a free month and cancel at any time with no obligation.

Thus far, everything on the card is straight fire. The glorious pirate Kairi Sane and her amazing elbow drop continues her rivalry with the Queen of Spades, Shayna Baszler, for the NXT Championship. Also, Charlotte gets a rematch for the Smackdown Women’s Championship against the super-arrogant–and super-wonderful–Becky Lynch in a Last Woman Standing match, and the buildup to that match has been phenomenal over the past few weeks.

As of this writing, there are only five matches on the card. There is a week left to go before the show, but we’ll keep you updated as more matches are announced.
