On June 24, the U.S. Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, which has guaranteed the legal right to abortion nationwide since 1973. The practical effect of this decision is that abortion will be banned in 9 states within 30 days, with at least 12 more likely to follow. Increased legal restrictions are likely to severely impact clinics and organizations specializing in reproductive health, making it more difficult to access life-saving care, with people of color and other marginalized groups being disproportionately affected.

Game studios including Bungie, Insomniac, and Innersloth have responded to the decision by affirming their support for reproductive rights while posting links to charity and advocacy organizations. Disney, Netflix, and other studios have promised to provide access to abortion care for employees, including expanded travel benefits to cover employees who may now need to cross state lines to obtain essential care.

On June 24, IGN released the following statement.

IGN is committed to being inclusive and supporting equality. We believe our employees have the right to make personal decisions about their physical and mental well-being. With employees in multiple states, we believe that all of our employees are entitled to universal access to health care and services, regardless of where one chooses to live.

How to Help: Charitable Organizations

A number of reproductive health and advocacy groups are currently accepting donations and support for their efforts to help guarantee access to reproductive healthcare, including abortion. We encourage you to consider the resources below, which offer ways to help organizations advocating for access to reproductive care and support.

National Network of Abortion Funds

National Network of Abortion Funds provides support for those seeking abortion on every level, from national to regional. In addition to monetary support, they offer “practical support” which is defined as “transportation, lodging, childcare, translation” and other services. You can read more about their services here. Donations could mean a huge amount to these smaller, grassroots organizations – you can see a list of funds by region here. Note that National Network of Abortion Funds was experiencing site outages and are also accepting direct donations at this link.

Center for Reproductive Rights

The Center for Reproductive Rights touts itself as “the only global legal advocacy organization dedicated to reproductive rights.” Its focus is backing effective reproductive health law in both the US and abroad.

Repro Legal Defense Fund via If/When/How

This fund, set up by advocacy group If/When/How, covers bail costs and pays for legal defenses for those investigated, arrested, or prosecuted for self-managing an abortion. The fund also offers free, confidential help from legal experts.

Disney CEO Bob Chapek hasn't exactly had a smooth ride since taking Disney's reins in 2020. From the COVID-19 pandemic shuttering theme parks across the country to a reported feud with former CEO Bob Iger, Chapek has come to be seen as an embattled executive moving from one crisis to another.

Nevertheless, Chapek received one big vote of confidence today, with Variety reporting that Disney's board of directors has voted unanimously to extend his contract for three more years.

"Disney was dealt a tough hand by the pandemic, yet with Bob at the helm, our businesses — from parks to streaming — not only weathered the storm, but emerged in a position of strength," chairman Susan Arnold said in a statement.

"In this important time of growth and transformation, the Board is committed to keeping Disney on the successful path it is on today, and Bob’s leadership is key to achieving that goal. Bob is the right leader at the right time for The Walt Disney Company, and the Board has full confidence in him and his leadership team."

The extension comes despite criticism stemming from his handling of major decisions like releasing Black Widow to both streaming and theaters simultaneously, leading star Scarlett Johansson to sue the entertainment giant. Chapek also found himself trapped between angry employees and the Republican Party amid the battle over Florida's "Don't Say Gay" bill.

Chapek expressed gratitude for the board's support and said leading Disney was the "honor of a lifetime."

The next three years will continue to test Chapek's leadership a Disney recovers from the pandemic; tries to continue growing Disney Plus amid fierce competion, and leans more than ever on its stable of well-known properties.

In the short-term, though, Chapek and the rest of Disney can enjoy the pending windfall from Thor: Love and Thunder, which is set to release on July 8.

Sony has announced a new line of gaming headsets and monitors today.

As part of its Inzone lineup, Sony's latest lineup of gaming products are not specifically PlayStation-branded. In total, five products are featured in the Inzone lineup: three gaming headsets along with two gaming monitors.

The headsets are part of the Inzone H-series, the design is similar to Sony's Pulse 3D headset with three different models: H3, H7, and H9. The H3 is the most affordable and is the only wired gaming headset in the Inzone H-series. While the H7 and H9 are wireless headsets that also support Bluetooth, the biggest distinction between the two is the H9 offers digital noise canceling. All three headsets support 360-degree spatial audio and work on PC and PS5.

The Sony Inzone H3 will retail for $99, while the H7 and H9 will retail for $229 and $299, respectively.

We reviewed the high-end Sony Inzone H9 headset, noting that, while it was a decent first attempt from Sony to make a non-PlayStation branded headset, the sore spots and $299 price tag make it a tough sell for most of its target audience.

The other two products in the Inzone lineup include the M-series, with two monitors: the Inzone M3 and M9. The Inzone M3 is a 1080p gaming monitor with a refresh rate of 240Hz. The flagship M9 is a 4K gaming monitor with a refresh rate of 144Hz.

Both M-series monitors are 27-inches and feature HDMI 2.1, making these good monitors to consider if you are looking to take advantage of devices that support variable refresh rate, such as the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nvidia's GeForce RTX 30 series GPUs. Sony notes that the Inzone M-series will have some exclusive features for PS5 owners, such as Auto HDR Tone Mapping, allowing you to optimize your console's high dynamic range (HDR).

In our review of the Sony Inzone M9, we praised the display for offering 4K 120Hz gaming at a competitive price, compared to other monitors of similar specs available on the market.

The Inzone M3 will cost $529 and will be available sometime this winter, while the high-end Inzone M9 is coming this summer and will retail for $899.

The Fallout TV series continues to grow its cast adding Twin Peaks' Kyle MacLachlan as well as Xelia Mendes-Jones and Aaron Moten to the cast.

Variety reports that MacLachlan, Mendes-Jones, and Moten will join the previously announced Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins, who is reportedly playing the lead role as a character "based on the ghouls."

No word yet on any of the roles for the new cast members joining the production.

MacLachlan is best known for his role as special agent Dale Cooper in Twin Peaks. He has starred in several other David Lynch films, but has also been a mainstay on TV appearing in shows like How I Met Your Mother and playing the Mayor of Portland in Portlandia.

The Fallout TV series is set to begin production later this year with Westworld's Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy set to serve as executive producers. Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner are also executive producers and co-showrunners. Bethesda director Todd Howard is also an executive producer.

In addition to producing, Jonathan Nolan will direct the series premiere for Amazon having previously directed several episodes of Westworld and Person of Interest.

Fallout is just one of several video game adaptations for TV currently in the works. While Fallout is set for Amazon, HBO is developing a Last of Us TV series, and a Horizon series is heading to Netflix.

Meanwhile, Bethesda is busy working on its next game Starfield while also in the early stages of the next Elder Scrolls game. This means a new Fallout game might be further out and will likely not be done before the TV series hits Amazon.

PlayStation's Horizon TV series will seemingly be called Horizon 2074, indicating that it's partly set during the fall of civilization that takes place 1,000 years before the games.

The name was shared alongside a crew listing on the Directors Guild of Ontario website, matching reports from Jeff Grubb who shared the listing.

Here is the crew for Horizon 2074. This confirms the name as well as filming in Toronto. As I reported previously, the show will likely be set in Toronto as per conditions of tax incentives. https://t.co/J20WWdtRN6

— Jeff Grubb, No. 3 games journalist (@JeffGrubb) June 27, 2022

The 2074 date more or less matches up with the fall of civilization in the 21st century mentioned in the two PlayStation games (Zero Dawn and Forbidden West), which date it slightly earlier in 2066. The actual story of the Horizon games takes place around 1,000 years later.

Sony announced that Horizon would be expanding into a multimedia franchise in May alongside two other PlayStation game series: God of War and Gran Turismo. Little else is known about the Horizon 2074 other than it's coming to Netflix.

Horizon: Forbidden West, the second game in the franchise, was released earlier this year (IGN said it was amazing), and the series is breaking more new ground with a virtual reality game called Call of the Mountain coming to the PlayStation VR2.

HBO Max's animated Harley Quinn series returns for its third season in late July, the streamer announced today. The first three episodes of the season will debut on July 28, followed by weekly episodes through September 15.

Season 3 picks up the story of Harley (Kaley Cuoco) and Poison Ivy (Lake Bell) toward the end of their "Eat. Bang! Kill. Tour" that kicked off at the end of Season 2 — and continued through the tie-in comic of the same name. Upon returning to Gotham, the "new power couple of DC villainy" attempt to fulfill "Ivy’s long-desired plan of transforming Gotham into an Eden paradise."

The Season 3 teaser trailer begins as Harley presents Ivy with a kidnapped Amanda Waller, before transitioning into a montage of clips from the season ahead. It's brutal, it's horny, it's everything we've come to love and expect from the adult animated comedy.

Along for the joyride are King Shark (Ron Funches), Clayface (Alan Tudyk), Frank the Plant (JB Smoove), Kite Man (Matt Oberg), Batman (Diedrich Bader), Catwoman (Sanaa Lathan), and Commissioner Gordon (Christopher Meloni), among many others. Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn also appears as himself.
