Around the gaming horn

Live A Live is out today on Switch! Catch up with our review!

Meet the dinosaurs of Exoprimal.

If this fell under your radar, Into the Breach is only available now as part of Netflix's big push into games, but the game also got a substantial update. Check it out!

Let's end this with a wholesome Kirby bedtime story.


And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!!!

Announced at San Diego Comic-Con!

Get the latest updates on Marvel Studios' upcoming slate of animated projects, including a look at the revival of the 90s X-Men cartoon.

Speaking of animation, we've got some Groot shorts incoming! Check out the first trailer!

The Walking Dead is coming back for one final round of episodes. Come see how it all wraps up on October 2 and be there for the end. (The end of this show. The end of The Walking Dead? Oh, lord, no! There's plenty of that to go around!)

Need more Walking Dead? Here's a fresh look at Tales of the Walking Dead, which is premiering on August 14. Yes, that is Terry Crews, why do you ask?

Oh, and Michonne and Rick? It looks like they're coming back next year! And their comeback won't be a movie, but a limited series.

Let's move to Lord of the Rings! Here's the latest trailer for The Rings of Power. The new series will premiere exclusively on Prime Video on September 2.

The Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai voice acting cast looks to be complete and it does indeed include the returning Zack Galligan.

Here's a first look at the Transformers: EarthSpark animated series. You can learn more about it on Deadline.

Shown at a Comic-Con panel on Thursday, here's a new clip of the upcoming Beavis and Butt-Head revival that's coming to Paramount+.

Lastly, here's an update on the Avatar: The Last Airbender movies that are coming to Paramount Plus. The first one will return to the time of Aang and his supporting cast.


Scenes from San Diego Comic-Con

Let's take a look at some of the best cosplay from San Diego Comic-Con.

Nobody has more brains than Xavier Woods.

Wordplay Fett!

Why couldn't Doctor Strange have explored this universe? He probably would have been safer there.

Lady D gearing up for the next Resident Evil Village update.

It's simple. We be the Batman.

Check out more of the best cosplay from Variety, Entertainment Weekly, TMZ, and Bleeding Cool.


Nothing but the Hotfix

For one time only, GDQ Hotfix held a special Celeste tournament for runners. Check out these special bingo categories, which is a really cool idea and one I hope we see at a mainline GDQ someday.

GDQ's Hotfix shows air every week and you can catch them all at the Games Done Quick Twitch account.


This week in Shaqnews

Shaq continues to be one of the world's best humans.


IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!

Only one story in wrestling that matters this week.

The industry will never be the same after today.

Also, this has to mean there's smoke to the allegations that have been levied over the past few weeks. This story is far from over, so stay tuned.


Tonight in video game music

We're going to go back in time a bit to March of last year to track down GaMetal's mix of Megalomania. Yes, you bet we're celebrating Live A Live with this incredible track.
