Anime Fans Absolutely Adore The New Romantic Comedy Series Horimiya

2021 is just the latest in a long two years where escapism is needed more than ever. While some turn to fantastical worlds full of magic and gorgeous visuals, others take solace in some good old fashioned romantic comedy. Horimiya, a new anime that just premiered on January 9th, seems to be filling in that void nicely for people interested in the genre, and apparently, there are quite a few....

Anthem Which Javelin Will Best Suit You

When players weren’t being hung up by the infinite load screen issue during Anthem’s VIP and open demo periods, BioWare supplied gamers with a decent amount of time to become somewhat familiar with the action-RPG’s separate Javelin suits. Of course, with the game’s official launch set to occur soon, those who may have missed out on playing the title during its demos may want to get a better idea of what they can expect from each class at launch, and which one would be right for their play style....

Anthem Is Half Off Less Than Three Months After Launch

Since Anthem was released back in February, players have continually taken issue with numerous aspects of BioWare’s new multiplayer looter shooter. These issues have primarily focused around bugs and the game’s perceived lack of content, and Anthem’s playerbase has undoubtedly dwindled as a result. While this has led some to feel that the future of Anthem is “not looking good at all,” a hefty discount to the title may be the latest attempt to stem the bleeding....

Apex Legends Season 8 Weapon Tier List

Season 8 of Apex Legends is officially in full-swing, and the start of a new season means a revised weapon tier list. Every season, Respawn makes some balance changes to guns to shake up the meta and bring other weapons into the spotlight to take over some that are perhaps a bit too overtuned. This season also features the introduction of a new weapon, the 30-30 Repeater, a powerful rifle that does well at varying ranges....

Apple has released a new software update for a phone that’s almost ten years old, not to mention some Macs that were released in 2013. The new Apple software updates are built specifically for older iPhones, iPads, and Macs that can’t install the updated iOS 16.3, iPadOS 16.3, or macOS Ventura and ensure that people using older devices continue to be safe while they do it.

Are She Hulk S Guest Stars A Real Problem For The Show

Bruce Banner. Emil Blonsky. Wong. Soon, Daredevil and who knows who else. All of these established Marvel Cinematic Universe characters (not to mention real-life rap star Megan Thee Stallion) are making extended cameo appearances in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, prompting some fans and pundits online to ask: are all the MCU stars taking the attention away from the person it belongs to, Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk? Heck, Jen addressed the issue herself in Episode 3, “The People vs....

Arrow Season 6 Episode 21 Review Docket No 11 19 41 73

This Arrow review contains spoilers. Arrow Season 6 Episode 20 Arrow brought back a sensation I hadn’t felt in a while: waiting at the edge of my seat for every commercial break to be over. Courtroom dramas generally slow down the pace and weaken the story for shows that aren’t already set there, but this episode finally gave us something we’ve been wanting to see all season, and kept us guessing until the very end....

Assassin S Creed Infinity Won T Take On Gta Online

Ubisoft just announced Assassin’s Creed Infinity… at least, kind of. A report claimed that Assassin’s Creed would be shifting to a live-service model, though details on exactly how that would work remained fuzzy.

27 Of Our Favorite Disney Princess Reimagined As Villains

A lot of people love Disney villains. Maybe it’s because it is a way for us to deal with the things in our real life, or maybe it’s just because they look so cool. We are also just fascinated by the dark side aren’t we? That does not necessarily make us bad people. Villainy gives us an adrenaline rush and it’s a safe and riskless way to enjoy what we normally wouldn’t....

5 Franchises With Reboots As Good As Resident Evil 4 5 That Didn T Even Come Close

Resident Evil 4 set the standard for video game reboots in 2005 with its massive gameplay shift. The storyline continued, but the genre went from survival horror to action. While some fans were uneasy with this, it is difficult to argue that it helped the franchise live this long and celebrate its 25th anniversary. Not every series can be so lucky with reboots, however. Five of the games below hit the nail on the head in a similar manner, while others missed the mark....

A Chat With The Fans Remaking Rayman 2 Because Ubisoft Won T

Despite Ubisoft’s reluctance to bring him back, Rayman has held a special place in gamers’ hearts since his debut in 1995. His wacky personality, not to mention the creative worlds he explored, enchanted us - especially in Rayman 2: The Great Escape. That wild imagination from Michel Ancel and his team at the time has inspired Rycer (Project Lead), Corbin William (Lead Programmer/Lead Modeler), and the rest of r2HD to bring the game back into the age of HD....

A Disneyland Lover S Guide To Recreating The Theme Park Experience In Video Games

Disneyland closed on March 12, 2020. Nearly ten months later, we still don’t know when it will reopen. In my lifetime, Disneyland has been closed only twice: the day after the Northridge earthquake in 1994, and after the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. This is the first time Disneyland has ever been closed for more than a single day. The only thing I love more than video games is theme parks....

Actually Bennett Is One Of The Best Characters In Genshin Impact

There seems to be a trend amongst Genshin Impact players to brush Bennett aside and opt for other “better” characters. But actually, if you take a closer look, you’ll see that Bennett has some real potential. In fact, we’d go so far as to say he’s one of the game’s best characters, and this is not only if you kit him out with the right tools for the trade. Just by virtue of being Bennett himself can he be considered a great character....

Amy Hennig Calls Visceral Star Wars Game Authentic

Former Uncharted Creative Director Amy Hennig discusses how she and Visceral Games are working together to ensure the mysterious new Star Wars game is “authentic”. It can be difficult to keep a secret in the video game industry, especially when an upcoming IP is firmly rooted in the lore of one of the most popular multimedia franchises of all time. Somehow, however, ex-Naughty Dog Creative Director Amy Hennig and the team at Visceral Games have managed to do just that with the mysterious Star Wars game the studio is developing....
