The rumors of a next-gen Superman game have been flying around for a while now, but it seems like something is brewing when it comes to Kal-El and getting his own game.

Now we have an industry insider that has revealed a slew of details on Warner Bros. plans to release an open-world Superman game and that it has been actively trying to make it happen since 2013, the year Man of Steel was released.

The new details add that one of the Superman games pitched to WB was an open-world game similar to how Spider-Man ended up on the PS4 recently. It would've had a Metropolis that would've been huge, and featured a bunch of infamous villains ripped directly from the comic book pages of DC.

GIGABYTE hasn't had an AORUS-branded Radeon since the Radeon RX 580 (they skipped the RX 590) so it is high time that we get a custom AORUS-branded Radeon.

The latest in AORUS' custom line up appears to be a custom Radeon RX 5700 XT in a huge triple-fan, triple-slot beast. We are expecting AORUS to release the custom Radeon RX 5700 XT sometime in the next month or so, perfect for the holidays and the latest games out like Red Dead Redemption 2.

In a statement from 'GBT-Brian' who is a GIGABYTE Community Manager, he explained: "You guys asked for it and we are delivering! Going into mass production next week and should be available 2-3 weeks after. I'll post more pics as soon as the product hits our warehouse".

ASRock had a solid first entry into the world of custom Navi graphics cards with its Radeon RX 5700 XT Taichi OC+ which I reviewed here, but now the company has announced its upcoming Radeon RX 5700 Phantom Gaming series family.

The new ASRock Radeon RX 5700 Phantom Gaming series graphics cards will offer up custom versions of both the Radeon RX 5700 XT and Radeon RX 5700, each with overclocked GPUs and 8GB of GDDR6.

Starting with the flagship Radeon RX 5700 XT Phantom Gaming series graphics card we have the Navi 10 GPU at 1690/1835/1945MHz for base/game/boost GPU clocks, respectively. ASRock's second Phantom Gaming series card in the Radeon RX 5700 will have 1610/1725/1750MHz for base, game, and boost GPU clocks respectively.

Since we first broke the story about the possible upcoming fate of Silicon Valley-based retail chain Fry's Electronics, not much has changed within the stores. Shelves are still empty with what limited product they have in stock being spread out across as many isles as possible.

After our story, numerous other news outlets including CBS, San Jose Mercury News, and PC Gamer have begun to speculate, as well as obtain denials from Fry's Electronics spokesperson Manuel Valerio that the company has no immediate plans to go out of business. Even though it is closing its Palo Alto store, the company insists it has no plans to close its other 33 stores in nine states.

One store manager commented to us that they are clearing out the existing product to make room for new vendors. We specifically asked what vendor was replacing copies of Microsoft Windows, which at that point, the manager refused to make any additional comments. On recent store visits to Bay Area and Southern California stores, not only have we seen little to no new products arriving, but employees have told us that what new products we are seeing are mostly inter-store transfers.

Modern Warfare's new battle pass offering will be available next month, Activision confirms.

Activision has shrugged off Call of Duty lootboxes for good, replacing them with a new battle pass business model for Modern Warfare. The battle pass has two versions: a free version that's available to everyone, and the paid version. The only difference with the paid version is you can earn CoD Points to spend on cosmetics in-game. Both versions will let gamers earn new weapons and attachments by playing the game, as well as new skins via seasonal events and rankings.

We don't know how much it'll cost just yet, but we do know it's coming sometime in December to coincide with the busy holiday season. "This includes our new in-game system for Modern Warfare which begins in December, slightly later than originally planned," Activision-Blizzard CFO Dennis Durkin said in a recent earnings call.

Thanks to our friends at Universal Sony Home Entertainment, we have ten Blu-ray copies of the new release action blockbuster 'Fast & Furious: Hobbs and Shaw' to give away!

Ever since hulking lawman Hobbs (Johnson), a loyal agent of America's Diplomatic Security Service, and lawless outcast Shaw (Statham), a former British military elite operative, first faced off in 2015's Furious 7, the duo have swapped smack talk and body blows as they've tried to take each other down. But when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever - and bests a brilliant and fearless rogue MI6 agent (Vanessa Kirby), who just happens to be Shaw's sister - these two sworn enemies will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves. Hobbs & Shaw blasts open a new door in the Fast universe as it hurtles action across the globe, from Los Angeles to London and from the toxic wasteland of Chernobyl to the lush beauty of Samoa.

Star Wars movies will be put on hold as Disney shifts towards shows on its streaming platform.

After Rise of Skywalker releases this December, Disney won't have a new Star Wars film for a while. Company CEO Bob Iger confirmed the news in a recent investors call: "Star Wars XI, which comes out this December, will be the last of the Skywalker Saga. We'll go into a hiatus for a few years before the next Star Wars feature. There'll be a lot of creative activity in the interim."

The news comes after Game of Thrones showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff scrapped plans for their new Star Wars trilogy. There's also rumors that Rian Johnson's planned extended universe trilogy, which had a December 2024 release attached to it, has been shut down by Lucasfilm. Nothing's been confirmed though.

Sony's PlayStation services have come a long way. But they need to go farther to compete with Xbox services' tremendous value. Sony isn't ready to take on Game Pass on its own turf just yet, though.

Sony has no plans to bring its big first-party PS4 exclusives over to PlayStation Now at launch, SIE President Jim Ryan confirms. This could be a mistake. Right now PS Now is much more attractive then it used to be--it lets subscribers download and play titles offline, for instance, and only costs $10 a month--but Game Pass is still the ultimate value in gaming, not just because of its breadth of offered titles, but because every first-party Xbox game releases comes to Game Pass too.

"The nature and scale of some of the first party games that we are making leads us to think that, right now, it's better to spend energy on making sure that the launch of those games is a massive entertainment event," Jim Ryan told GamesIndustry.biz.

Ubisoft Spain just put up a mysterious Splinter Cell tweet...is it for a new game?

There's been rumblings about a new Splinter Cell for a while now. Back in May, Ubisoft creative director said a new Splinter Cell game was in dev. Nothing came of this, though, and Ubisoft didn't reveal a new game at E3 2019.

However, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot made it clear the series was far from dead.

Remember Desert Bus, that joke game made by Penn and Teller where you drive a commuter bus from Arizona to Las Vegas for eight droll and ultra-monotonous hours? Now we have the modern equivalent.

AMC Games' debut title is something any frequent flyer can appreciate. It's called Airplane Mode, and it's a simulator that recreates the thrills and excitement of a six-hour plane ride in economy seating. No Wi-Fi? Check. Constant droning hum of the craft? Check. Crying, sneezing, coughing, and other human noises? Check. The only thing's missing is the tight cramped spaces, leg cramps, tight backs, and having to pee every 10 minutes.

Players (well I use that term lightly, you're really not playing) will sit through the entire flight in real-time. Luckily the devs have given you some tools to whittle away the hours. You can do Sudoku, crosswords, read a book in real-time, and watch some royalty-free programming from the 1930s like Georges Melies' classic Voyage to the Moon.
