Zelda Meets Diablo in the Gorgeous Moon Hunters
Moon Hunters is, out of nowhere, one of our most-anticipated PC and PS4 games of 2016. Developer Kitfox gave IGN early access to its action-RPG, which sees up to four players making choices, coordinating their distinct abilities, and beating up flaming bull demons with rad magic and physical attacks. It's Zelda blended with Diablo, to be reductive, with a lot of its own exciting ideas. We're super into it.
Check out the introduction below, and our chaotic, fun four-player commentary above.

Christian Bale: ‘I Didn’t Quite Nail’ Playing Batman
There may be a lot to love about about Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy, but star Christian Bale isn't fully satisfied with his performance as the Caped Crusader.
Speaking to Yahoo Movies, Bale admitted he didn't feel like his turn as Batman was up to snuff.
"I didn’t quite manage what I hoped I would throughout the trilogy," Bale said. "Chris did, but my own sense of self is like, 'I didn’t quite nail it.'"
Part of his disappointment stems from Heath Ledger's critically acclaimed portrayal of The Joker in The Dark Knight, for which he won a posthumous Oscar for best supporting actor.

What To Look Forward to in Once Upon a Time’s 100th Episode
A trip to the Underworld. Many returning characters. An emotional, cathartic confrontation. These are only a few things to look forward to when Once Upon a Time airs its 100th episode.
Hitting episode 100 is a big moment for any TV show, and OUAT is using the opportunity to dive into its own history to trot out some familiar faces for its Season 5 midseason premiere. But beyond just calling back to previously lost characters, the episode is going to hearken back to the feel of Season 1.
"In Season 1, we the audience got to see Storybrooke through Emma's eyes as she drove into town and we had never seen Storybrooke before. In the 100th episode, we're seeing a different version of Storybrooke. Behind the scenes we call it 'Underbrooke,'" executive producer Steve Pearlman explained at OUAT's 100th episode party.

Destiny: New Update to Repair Major Lag Issues
Starting on March 8, Bungie will release Hot Fix 2.1.1.3—its answer to the lag problem that's been plaguing Destiny.
Bungie has been testing its latest search criteria in Control and Iron Banner over the past week, in effort to foster "a competitive ecosystem that works for everyone." The new settings focused first on finding matches "with the lowest latency possible," while still "insulat
players at each extreme of the skill curve from each other." However, skill will no longer be prioritized over latency.
In December, the developer implemented matchmaking changes that emphasized skill over connection. This angered highly-skilled players who were now facing increased lag. In late January, Bungie reversed those changes, and began testing settings that "assign
