Here’s Everything Leaving Netflix in December
As 2017 comes to a close, it's time for Netflix to make its final purge of the year. Expiring from the site in December are movies like Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Young Frankenstein, and Nightcrawler along with the criminally under-watched and underrated Terriers, which only lasted one season on FX.
Also leaving the site is It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Yup, 11 (of the 12) seasons are taking a powder so get your fix of Paddy's Pub and The Gang while you still can.

Snipperclips Dev Discusses What’s New in DLC
The original Snipperclips was an early smash hit on the Switch's eShop. Its light-hearted, creative, and approachable gameplay paved the way in terms of digital exclusive titles on the newly-opened store.
In celebration of its brand new DLC and physical storefront release Snipperclips Plus, we sat down with brothers Tom and Adam Vian of SFB Games, creators of Snipperclips and Snipperclips Plus, to gain some insight into their creative process for this version and what plans the studio may have for the future.
Adam: When we finished Snipperclips, we had a few levels left over, quite a few. However, I would say almost all of the content that ended up in Snipperclips Plus ended up being developed from scratch this year. We actually came up with more new ideas than we thought we would. There’s a couple of levels, one I’m thinking of in particular that’s kind of a spiritual successor to levels in the main Snipperclips. But apart from that, we tried to think up brand new things from scratch.

After Battlefront 2 Backlash, Need For Speed: Payback Alters Progression System

The amount of REP and Bank have been increased from events, Bait crates, and competing against Roaming Racers, as well as finishing races outside of first place. Air Suspension will also appear more frequently in Shipments.
