This week on Wrestle Buddies, GameSpot’s professional wrestling podcast, Chris E. Hayner and Mat Elfring have a lot to talk about–and they’re not alone. The Good Brothers–Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson–are here to talk about all manner of things.

First up, Mat and Chris watched an episode of Impact Wrestling on AXS TV and had a bunch of thoughts. In the great wrestling war between AEW and WWE that technically doesn’t exist, Impact is often an afterthought. After checking out the product though, we can’t figure out why that’s the case.

Next, we dive into the rich history of WWE Studios filmography to study cinematic achievements like The Marine 5 and 12 Rounds 3 to come up with our Top 5 movies from the company. Yes, while WWE has released quite a few bad films, there are also a number of great movies you should check out.

Splinter Cell, the long-running stealth-action franchise developed by Ubisoft, is getting its own animated Netflix adaptation, according to Variety. The first season is in development and helmed by John Wick writer Derek Kolstad.

Two seasons have already reportedly been ordered, encompassing a total of 16 episodes across them. There’s no indication yet if the series will adapt stories from some of the games, or whether series stalwart Michael Ironside will be reprising his role as Sam Fisher. Ironside was last involved with the series in Splinter Cell: Conviction, having been replaced in the most recent entry, 2013’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist. He later returned as Fisher in multiple cameo appearances across other franchises.

Derek Kolstad is no stranger to action productions too. He’s served as a writer on all three John Wick films while also recently providing writing for the Disney+ exclusive Falcon and The Winter Solider. The series was recently delayed after initially planning to launch this August.

A game-breaking bug is halting players’ adventures 20 to 30 hours into Paper Mario: The Origami King. The RPG’s driving narrative force revolves around Princess Peach and her castle being held in place by enormous streamers atop a distant mountain. It’s up to Mario to rescue the princess from the game’s titular villain by travelling to different locations within the Mushroom Kingdom in order to destroy all five streamers.

As YouTube channel Nintendo Unity recently detailed, a game-breaking bug can destroy a players’ save file on the fifth and final streamer, leaving those affected by the issue with the option to either delete their save and start again or wait for Nintendo to resolve the bug with a forthcoming patch.

Polygon reached out to Nintendo and were told that the studio is currently working on such a fix. “We are aware of reports about issues affecting some players of Paper Mario: The Origami King,” a representative from the company said. “We are working to resolve these issues and plan to address them in a software update. We apologize for any inconvenience.”

The Version 1.4 Summer Update of Animal Crossing: New Horizons has turned one of the game’s most useful glitches into a feature.

As spotted by the @ACWorldBlog Twitter account, you can now remove the HUD when using the NookPhone Camera App by clicking in the right analogue stick on your Joy-Con.

Earlier in July, a glitch that allowed players to remove the HUD was itself removed, leading to a backlash from fans and content creators, who were using the tweak to capture footage and screenshots of the game without the visually busy elements of the interface.

Now they’ll be relieved that Nintendo has been listening, and has brought the glitch back into the game as a feature.

The past Camera App Glitch allowing you to remove the HUD has now been added as a native feature in Version 1.4 of Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Simply press in the right analog stick to remove the user interface. Thank you Nintendo!! #ACHH pic.twitter.com/wGC0xVhV0z

We reviewed Animal Crossing: New Horizons upon its launch in March of this year, scoring it a 9 and calling it “an expanded, polished, next-generation reboot of a classic.” In other New Horizons news, here’s the full skinny on the latest content update, which has brought fireworks and dreaming to the game.

Microsoft Flight Simulator will launch on Steam, and VR support is coming later this year as part of a free update.

“Microsoft Flight Simulator for PC will support VR via the HP Reverb G2. This will be available later this fall,” head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann revealed during a press briefing. In an accompanying post on the Xbox blog, it was announced that the game will be coming to Steam on launch day as well as Windows 10 and Xbox Game Pass for PC, which is currently in beta.

[ignvideo url=”https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/30/microsoft-flight-simulator-san-francisco-to-las-vegas-full-flight-gameplay”]

Neumann has told Eurogamer that VR support will come to other headsets beyond the Reverb G2 later down the line. “We’re going to bring it to all the devices – all the common ones,” Neumann told Eurogamer. “It’s just going to take a few more months after that.”

During the same briefing, Neumann described Microsoft Flight Simulator as “an ever-changing, ever-evolving platform” with more features and more planes arriving in the years to come.

Following the game’s launch, the team at Asobo is “aiming to release something meaningful every month.”

Free world updates will arrive every two to three months and focus on a specific area of the globe, with custom airports and missions. Free sim updates will address community wishlist features in between. Asobo is also planning paid DLC for Microsoft Flight Simulator, and Neumann mentioned helicopters and heliports as a potential focus.

Our preview of Microsoft Flight Simulator arrived earlier today – check out why we’re calling it “the perfect quarantine game” here. If you’re still not sated, check out 6 epic landing challenges from the game that will make any seasoned pilot quake with fear.

Microsoft Flight Simulator launches on August 18th for PC.

Twitch Prime has revealed August’s batch of free games for subscribers, and it’s one of the better months in recent memory for the program. Twitch Prime is included with every Amazon Prime subscription, so don’t miss out on these freebies. All you need to do to start getting free games through Twitch Prime is link your Twitch account to your Amazon Prime account.

Throughout August, subscribers can claim five new free games: Treachery in Beatdown City, Blazing Chrome, Chroma Squad, Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn, and Warsaw.

Treachery in Beatdown City is the standout here. The beat ’em up released earlier this year, and though it harkens back to old school arcade games, it adds more depth to the formula with RPG mechanics, character strengths/weaknesses, and a tactical menu that gives each fight a strategic bent. It earned an 8/10 in GameSpot’s Treachery in Beatdown City review.

During a media preview for Spiritfarer–an upcoming death positive game that sees you play as Stella, a ferrymaster to the afterlife–I played through a mid-section of the game and spoke to creative director Nicolas Guérin. I asked him what it was like to work on and release a project that deals with mortality and grief during a worldwide pandemic, when death is likely at the forefront of many people’s minds.

“It is scary at first,” Guérin told me. “Scary because it would be entirely possible that people don’t want to hear or talk about death anymore, being that much surrounded by it. But then, taking a step back, I believe maybe, maybe Spiritfarer could be a little bit of help.”

I was a bit surprised at my experience with Spiritfarer. We’ve seen quite a few games that deal with death positivity in the past few years, such as A Mortician’s Tale and Necrobarista. However, Spiritfarer takes on a much more transactional tone in how it asks players to take a hard look at the swirl of emotions that surround dying or caring for the recently deceased.
