In the 90s, no end of films came out that changed the way we look at the world. You could argue that Toy Story changed how we eyed our eyes with scrunity, but for me, it was Small Soldiers. Seeing toys get into such heated battles like that, and in a live action setting, captured my imagination…
Remedy Entertainment had a pretty successful 2023. I say that with trepidation because while Alan Wake 2 was a major critical success, scooping up an array of award wins, it hasn’t yet proved to be a financial success. As of the beginning of February 2024, the game had shifted just 1.3 million…

Do you remember when The Elder Scrolls VI was announced? If not, we wouldn't blame you. The Elder Scrolls VI was revealed at E3 2018, long before Microsoft acquired Bethesda's parent company, ZeniMax Media, which gives you an indication of how much things have changed since its reveal. Check out…
For 20 years, the Call of Duty franchise has been a leader of the first-person shooter genre with no signs of slowing down. Well, that is perhaps until the arrival of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. Back when the first Call of Duty arrived in 2003, it was a much simpler time. The first three…
Nintendo has always been a champion of making games that put a smile on our faces, and continue to push the boundaries of creativity and fun. Super Mario Bros. Wonder is no exception, in fact, I'd call it Nintendo's best work in years. The plot is pretty simple, Bowser is up to no good again, but…
The John Wick franchise has been released over a decade chronologically, but the in-universe timeline differs significantly. Each installment built on the intricate lore and world-building that made the series so unique. Here, the full timeline is presented, both chronologically and how it pertains…

If you watched a Gears of War trailer for the first time, perhaps the first thing that comes to mind wouldn't be emotional storytelling. The original Gears of War was released for the Xbox 360 in 2006 and alongside the likes of Halo, it became one of Microsoft’s flagship properties for the green…
We all have that one game, or franchise, that we love wholeheartedly. For me, it’s The Last of Us - and I could quite literally rave about the perfection that is The Last of Us Part II for forever a day. It looks as if I’m not alone though, as The Last of Us has been voted the greatest game of all…
