Ms. Marvel continues the streak which started with Moon Knight earlier this year, introducing yet another brand new hero into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Platform(s): Xbox Series (version played), Xbox One, PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch Genre: 3D platformer with a marsupial mascot You have to hand it to Tate Multimedia, perhaps the only folks with the best of intentions to bring back an obscure 3D platformer mascot title back to the 2022 limelight. Honestly, was there a subsection of gamers who ...
Platform(s): PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S Genre: Action Adventure, Action RPG, Soulslike, Sci-Fi Soulslike games are probably one of the most popular genres right now, but From Software titles (like this year's Elden Ring) are clearly still AAA kings.

Top Gun was a 1986 film that made joining the US Navy look cool, created a market for fashionable bomber jackets, and featured a ton of quippable 80s lines and scenes that tread the line between machoness and homoeroticism. In all seriousness though, it was a breathtaking action film with a loveable rogue bunch of leads and was a technical filmmaki...

Adrian Teh has made a name for himself with his action film P.A.S.K.A.L., which I felt a tad ambivalent about. Still, you cannot fault him for his efforts, as his follow-up action film Wira was of higher quality, at least from my point of view. You could say that The Assistant is the next in line for his action film high budget efforts, with the...

Leave it to director Sam Raimi, the man behind comic book movie gold like Darkman and the Spider-Man trilogy, to teach this generation's movie makers how comic book movies should be done.
