Take-Two boss pinky-swears that GTA 6 is coming this fall

The wait for GTA 6 is finally set to end this year, and though gamers have been nervous about a potential last-minute delay regarding this hotly-anticipated title, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick recently quelled fears about a shifting release window. In an interview with IGN, Zelnick said that while "there's always a risk of slippage," the company "feel[s] really good about" the fall 2025 release date, and he expects to be able to share more soon. Gamers aren't the only ones waiting with baited breath to hear a release date for GTA, as other game makers have been holding off on announcing release dates for any games beyond the summer for fear of going up against this massively-anticipated title. Are you excited for GTA 6? If you had to guess, when do you think the title will finally make its debut? Personally, I like the theory that it will be launched alongside the Switch 2, even if that's a little far-fetched. Make your best guesses below!

Are you excited to watch this year's crop of Super Bowl ads?

With it now being early February, it's just about time for TV's largest sporting event -- the Super Bowl -- to unfold in yet another epic finale. This year, the National Football League (NFL) has set the date for Sunday, February 9, which is just a couple of days away. Super Bowl LIX will see the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs competing for the 2024 season championship title. As for the halftime show, Kendrick Lamar is slated to take the stage for what will surely be a high-profile performance. Aside from the halftime show, another staple of the Super Bowl is the legendary and highly publicized advertisements that play during commercial breaks. With such a massive TV viewership concentrated during the game, companies are often willing to spend a pretty penny on this prime-time commercial real estate. Within the tech industry alone, we've seen a number of influential and iconic advertisements air over the years. The ones that immediately spring to mind for me include

How are you liking Kingdom Come: Deliverance II so far?

With great reviews across the board, Warhorse Studios' Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is poised to be the video game hit of the year that very few people saw coming -- including myself. I've spent roughly five hours with the game so far, and I've been blown away by its visuals, pacing, combat, and most importantly, the fact that it only loosely explains its intricate systems. This has totally caught me off guard because I'm typically the type of player that wants specific instructions about what I need to do next in video games. But with Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, that's sort of the entire game, apart from a few early tutorials. After a lengthy intro, you're thrown into the world and tasked with figuring things out yourself. It's a modern throwback to a more rewarding era when games didn't spell everything out to you. In a way, it reminds me of a far more grounded (and modern) version of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. If you're old enough to remember that Bethesda classic, you'll
