Talk about making quite an impression. Metronomik just released a new trailer showcasing the ins and outs of its upcoming rhythm game-like action title No Straight Roads. It's an acoustic cover of an old classical music piece (the tune's name escapes me because I'm an uncultured swine), performed adorably by main character Mayday. https://youtu.be...

Gearbox released the official list of gun brands available in Borderlands 3. Previous series featured trademark brands that produce different types of guns from fast-shooting shotguns to assault rifles that fire explosions like Torgue. Heck, if you reload a Tediore, you instead chuck it as a grenade then re-digitizes a new one in your hand. Slick, ...
So Shazam! is a blast. It's got superheroics, it's got heart, and best of all it proves that Warner Bros. execs should have gone for the cartoony over-the-top aesthetics and tone ala Justice League Unlimited and all those other WB Animation fares. Let's talk about how it ended, and what it means for the DC Extended Universe. The climax of Shaza...
The wait for The Avengers: Endgame is killing all of us. So what better way than Disney and Marvel to dripfeed more early clips of the show, especially with one scene where Carol "Captain Marvel" Danvers explains why she didn't arrive sooner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV1iQv0TdHM Despite her debut film being a bit average, I admit that I li...
I've spent hours traipsing through the cold bits of Pandora yet again since 10 years ago, gunning down heavy-shielded Vault protectors and Crimson Lance soldiers of varying bad-assness in glorious 4K and Ultra graphic settings. And then it just dawned onto me; I didn't turn on my network settings in-game. Within 10 years, the loot-and-shoot genre t...
Come late October, the Philippines' gaming scene is about to party yet again. The fine folks at Gariath Concepts recently announced the dates of their video game-tastic gaming expo ESGS (short for Esports and Gaming Summit): 24 to 27 October in SMX Convention Center, Pasay City, The Philippines. The 24th will be a business day, meaning the media ...
Ever had one of those days where you just want to plop into an alien world and just gun down unlimited amounts of aliens and floating things while you travel from world to world? Want to just turn your brain off and let shooter reflexes take over to see if you can survive waves upon waves of infinitely-spawning enemies? Then Risk of Rain 2Â from...
We reported earlier this week that the PC version of Borderlands 3 is an Epic Store exclusive (for 6 months) following Epic Games CEO's quest to buy exclusives. Twenty-four hours later, the internet bombs the Borderlands games with negative reviews to protest this move. Here's a breakdown over what happened from 4 to 5 April: Borderlands 2 on St...
SNK just announced the brand-new characters in its upcoming Samurai Shodown 2019 reboot which looks awesomesauce so far. The game has a Japanese release date: 27 June for PS4 and Xbox One. They'll also be an arcade version of the game this summer. But you're not here for that! You're here to find out more about the new additions to the SamSho lega...
There's quite a resurgence of horror going on these past few months. From stellar showings like Hereditary to last March's Us to even this week's remake of Pet Sematary, we are blessed and thrilled as fans and aficionados of the genre. I've decided to recount the best horror films of the past decade. That means stuff that was made from 2009 onward...
The Cowboy Bebop live-action series on Netflix has its main cast sorted out. Your mileage may vary. According to a Variety report, we have: John Cho of Searching, the Star Trek reboots, and Harold & Kumar fame, as Spike Spiegel, the cool bounty hunter who knows Jeet Kune Do. Mustafa Shakir (Luke Cage's Bushmaster) as Jet Black, the vete...
It's no secret that the best themes and music can make people remember films they didn't even watch or games they didn't even play. I know a bunch of people who haven't touched Halo and yet they remember that main theme melody in the Bungie-composed theme. The same goes for Mario, Sonic, and a slew of other retro titles. Sakura Wars for the Sega S...
The original Pet Sematary adaptation in 1989 focused its horror tale on a well-meaning nice guy who makes the wrong choices. At least when it comes to shielding the subject of death from his kids for the sake of his wife. Oh, and there's the unnatural resurrection plot tied into all this coupled with nice gore effects for both humans and cats. In ...
There's a new animated Dragon Quest movie in the works and it's headed to Japanese theatres this 2nd August. It's called Dragon Quest: Your Story; here's a quick look at it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUFO5uE2FeM Who knew that slimes and sabers can look this friggin' beautiful? I'm kinda surprised the humans don't look that Toriyama-esque th...

It's official: Borderlands 3 is coming out 13 September for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. We've already suspected it, given the copious amount of leaks yesterday. The PC version will be Epic Store-exclusive; it'll be out in other storefronts on April 2020. The release date trailer also confirmed the names and abilities of the new Vault Hunters. To refres...
Legendary music composer Yuzo Koshiro, who made his mark in the Ys series and in a ton of Sega Megadrive/Genesis games, will be involved with the Mega Drive Mini. He will be making brand-new music for the menu, which is fitting considering he's contributed a ton of aural masterpieces during the MegaDrive heydays. In keeping with the old-school the...
I remember how inventive and trippy Super Mario Bros World 2: Yoshi's Island was back in 1995. The awesome art style, the inventive gameplay where Yoshi can morph into different things, the fact that only lose if you get Baby Mario kidnapped, leading to Yoshi himself being invincible except to pitfalls and spikes. Fun times. How was that "blast to...
Nope, this isn't a late April Fools joke. Id Software and Avalanche Studio's open-world shooter Rage 2, that's set in a colourful post-apocalyptic world, will feature NBA Jam's Tim Kitzrow's voice. Why? I don't know, but he'll be providing celebratory quips as you kill enemies left, right, and centre. If you're a fan of NBA Jam, Tim is known for c...

2011: Eons after suffering through the many 3D Mortal Kombat games where fighters can switch between stances and pull off custom Fatalities, I was incredibly skeptical about the Mortal Kombat reboot. This was my time at GameSpot, so I was on high alert as to whether Ed Boon and his then-new studio can recapture the glory days of the simple-but-fun ...
One would think the headline is an early April's Fool joke (it's only a few days), but it's real. Hello Kitty and Mobile Suit Gundam are going to duke it out in lieu of their respective anniversaries: 45th for the former, 40th for the latter. According to a Crunchyroll report, the project involves a LINE campaign where fans can vote for their fa...
