Lego Is Retiring One Of The Most Popular Star Wars Sets
Lego Star Wars: Darth Vader Helmet (834 Pieces)
Get deal at Amazon Get deal at Walmart
Not many Lego sets have the type of run the Darth Vader Helmet has enjoyed. Released way back in March 2021, the 834-piece display model of the classic Sith Lord from the Original Trilogy has outlived many Star Wars Lego sets released after it. The Darth Vader Helmet is practically ancient in Lego years, but it remains one of the best-selling Star Wars sets at major retailers to this day. Just in the last month, Amazon says it has sold over 2,000 Darth Vader Helmets, which is a higher total than a bunch of recently launched sets. But Dark Lord Vader's life-support system can't keep him alive in the Lego Star Wars universe forever. Lego has marked the Darth Vader Helmet as "retiring soon," which means it'll likely be sold out at major retailers before the end of the year.
If you want to add the set to your personal collection or are looking for an always-popular gift for a Star Wars fan this holiday season, the Lego Darth Vader Helmet is on sale for $62 (was $80) at Amazon and Walmart ahead of Prime Big Deal Days. This isn't the all-time lowest price, but it's one of the better discounts offered this year. We wouldn't be surprised if both retailers sold out, and there's no guarantee it would be restocked again. For context, the Lego Store is selling the set for full price, but it's on backorder and won't ship for two months.

Activision Reveals New Call Of Duty Anti-Cheat Measures Ahead Of Black Ops 7 Beta
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will have its first open beta on October 2 for early-access players, before letting everyone else in on October 5. Cheating has been an ongoing issue with the franchise, up to and including last year's Black Ops 6. To combat this trend, Activision has unveiled the latest upgrades to its anti-cheat measures ahead of the Black Ops 7 open beta.
According to Activision, in-game detection measures have been enhanced by training "advanced machine learning systems on millions of hours of gameplay." The publisher is also stepping up its legal measures to dismantle attempts to monetize cheats outside of the game.
The primary tools being used to combat cheaters are the Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 requirements for Black Ops 7 on PC. Those measures will be implemented alongside the newest incarnation of the Ricochet anti-cheat software to prevent cheaters from sidestepping or fooling them. Activision notes that it will also be removing cheaters in real time as they are detected.

Since the announcement of Silent Hill f back in 2022, I've seen one question circulating online with far more fervor and frequency than any other: Does it have any connection to the rest of the series? After years of waiting and speculation, we finally have an answer.
Warning: Silent Hill f spoilers to follow.
If you've rolled credits on Silent Hill f, you're familiar with its shocking first ending. In it, it is revealed that the Hinako exploring Ebisugaoka is actually a twenty-something-year-old Hinako experiencing deep, drug-induced psychosis. Though players have witnessed what seemingly started out as an ordinary day for our high school-age main character, we come to discover that, in the real world, it's Hinako's wedding day, and she's spent the last few hours of it murdering her friends and family members. Her actions are, of course, horrific, but make sense if you do a little digging around.

Reef Entertainment has announced that, once again, Terminator 2D: No Fate has been delayed--and this latest delay is due to tariffs.
In a statement, the developer said the game is slipping from October 31 to November 26. The delay is due to "ongoing global trade and tariff changes that delayed shipment of the components" for the game's physical editions.
"Because we are committed to launching all editions together, this new date applies to both physical and digital releases worldwide," the developer said. "We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we're sorry for this further delay."

Summer 2049. A ghoulish-looking man is huddled against a shelf in a derelict building. He's grasping a long, rusted pipe. An eerie voice asks him to accept a bargain: power in exchange for his soul.
"Take it," the voice says, "and save your daughter … "
You see the man talk to said daughter later, as she coughs repeatedly, and you can see the pain of a parent watching their child suffer. When he promises her that the monsters around them won't hurt her, you see a father trying his best to reassure his frightened daughter in the midst of genuine danger. When he growls at the enemies to stay away from her, there is an intensity in his voice--a perilous quality. As he begs for someone to help them while he holds her, you sense a specifically parental kind of fear and heartbreak.

PlayStation: The First 30 Years
Preorder at Read Only MemoriesThirty years ago, the PlayStation console kicked off a new gaming era with its launch in the US and Europe. To celebrate this milestone, Sony has announced that it'll be exploring the history of the console with PlayStation: The First 30 Years. Scheduled to ship out in 2026, you can now preorder the book for $125.
PlayStation: The First 30 Years $125 | Releases Spring 2026Published by Read Only Memories--a British publisher specializing in producing books about the history of video games--PlayStation: The First 30 Years is a hardcover 400-page book designed to be a definitive visual chronicle of the console. The book is full of unseen images from Sony's archive of research and development materials, including prototypes, concept sketches, and development models.
Alongside the images you'll find commentary from key figures involved in the creation of the PlayStation, like Ken Kutaragi, Teiyu Goto, and Yujin Morisawa, and there are new images captured by NASA: Past and Present Dreams of the Future photographer Benedict Redgrove. Another nod to the past here is that the art direction for this book was led by Nicole Motby and Studio.Build, the graphic-design house responsible for creating the original cover art for Wipeout, Wipeout 2097, and Wipeout 3.
Preorder at Read Only Memories Gallery PlayStation: The First 30 Years Deluxe EditionPlayStation: The First 30 Years Deluxe EditionThe $325 Deluxe Edition of the book will be limited to 1,994 copies, and it comes with several extras like exposed binding, a clamshell presentation box, and exclusive prints. At the time of writing, 50 of these books have already been sold through Read Only Memories, so it looks like this will sell out very fast.
For now, it looks like this initial release might only be through Read Only Memories, but a wider release could come through another publisher. This wouldn't be unusual, as Read Only Memory's books like WipEout Futurism: The Graphic Archives, Like a Hurricane: An Unofficial Oral History of Street Fighter 2, 500 Years Later: An Oral History of Final Fantasy 7, and Videogame Atlas: Mapping Interactive Worlds have been published worldwide by Thames & Hudson and with different covers.

Borderlands 4 may have had some performance issues in its first month of release, but Gearbox Studios is looking ahead towards the future. The studio has previously announced that the game's first DLC is coming next year. Now, it's introducing a new vault hunter named C4sh.
According to Gearbox, C4sh is an ex-casino dealer bot turned drifter who "chases the probability-breaking highs of cursed eldritch artifacts." He--or it--will debut as part of the first story pack DLC, which includes a new tale called Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned. C4ash is one of two new vault hunters teased by Gearbox, but the identity of the second one has yet to be revealed.
Claptrap voice actor Jim Foronda reacted to the announcement by sharing his own "head canon' about the relationship between his character and C4sh.

A banner reportedly appearing at a convention in Switzerland over the weekend showed off five different Lego games with Nintendo Switch 2 branding--even though they only have original Switch versions so far. However, the Zurich Pop Con is already over with no new announcements from Nintendo, Warner Bros., or TT Games.
Spotted by Eurogamer, an X account called The LEGO Videogame Museum posted a picture from the expo that sees the Switch 2 logo above Lego City Undercover, Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Jurassic World, Harry Potter Collection, and DC Super-Villains. All of these games are playable on Switch 2 but don't have specific updates or separate Switch 2 editions. So it's possible this ad was teasing future improvements for those five games or otherwise just noting they're still playable on Switch 2.
