• Halo Fans Rejoice! Legendary Halo 2 E3 Demo To Be Released – Unlocked 552

    The Halo caretakers and developers at 343 Industries are making a major piece of lost Halo history playable: the infamous Halo 2 E3 2003 campaign demo that never made it into the final game. We react to this fantastic surprise and recall the Halo 2 hype from that time. Plus: a plea for proper, native Xbox Game Pass support on the Steam Deck, our thoughts on the potential Apex Legends Universe single-player game that Respawn might be making (aka Titanfall 3?), our reaction to the long-awaited gameplay reveal of Skull & Bones, and more!

    The 10 + 1 Most Popular Prime Day Deals From IGN Deals on Twitter

    We are deep into Prime Day now. In spite of its name, Amazon Prime Day is actually 48 hours of deals, and I'm of the opinion this year's crop of deals is among the best Amazon's ever had. Not just saying that! It's my honest opinion.

    If you were unaware, we have an IGN Deals Twitter account you should follow, because it's much better at getting you the quickest deals as they're happening. Amazon has a bunch of Lightning Deals, which have an extremely limited availability, so if you don't catch them in time, you miss out.

    OK, now that you've followed IGN Deals (thanks, by the way), here are the ten most popular deals, plus one more because I like odd numbers.

    Before you buy anything on Prime Day, I recommend checking out this Amazon Gift Card deal first, among the best going. If you're eligible, you can get $12.50 credit when you buy a $50 Amazon gift card. If you planned to spend more than $50 anyway, it's a no-brainer.

    We also put together a list of the top 10 best Prime Day deals overall, so you can maximize your savings. We've been poring over the Prime Day deals all day, so you don't have to.

    Chadwick Boseman Gets Posthumous Emmy Nomination For What If…?

    Chadwick Boseman's iconic career lives on. Today, the late actor, who passed away in 2020, received a posthumous Emmy nomination in the Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance category for his role in Disney+ and Marvel Studios' What If…?.

    Boseman reprised his acclaimed role as T'Challa for an episode of the animated series, which imagines different timelines and endings for MCU characters (and also received its own nomination for the Outstanding Animated Program category). What If…? notably aired after Boseman's passing and marked his last appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

    This isn't the first time Boseman's career has been recognized after his death. Earlier this year, Boseman also received a posthumous Oscar nomination and won a Screen Actors Guild award for his role in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.

    Boseman passed away in 2020 at the age of 43 after a four year-long fight against colon cancer. He was best known for his role as T'Challa in Marvel's Black Panther, which was the first superhero movie to earn a Best Picture nomination, though his career saw him take on numerous other leading roles such as Jackie Robinson in 42 and Thurgood Marshall in Marshall.

    The Emmy Awards are slated to air on September 12.
