After more than three decades, Dragon Ball fans will finally get the film they want: Dragon Ball Super Broly, the movie that will add two previously fan favourite non-canon characters into the Toriyama-sanctioned universe. Three if you count Goku & Vegeta's new fusion from the Fusion Reborn film. Not only is this the 20th movie in the franchise...

Within the first 15 minutes of this Transformers origin story-slash-possible-reboot directed by Travis "Kubo & The Two Strings" Knight, I was in heaven. The battle for Cybertron between the Autobots and Decepticons. Soundwave doing his minion cassette ejecting thing, Shockwave issuing commands to the Seekers and the troops, Bumblebee and Optimu...

Platform: PS4, Xbox One, PC Genre: Open-World Sandbox, Action-Adventure Remember the good old days of sandbox games, where the narrative and plot were there only as an excuse for the player to explore the open-world and blow stuff up? Games like Volition's Red Faction: Guerilla (now-defunct), Pandemic Studios' Mercenaries (also defunct), Radi...
Disney's really laying it with the live-action sequels to their past works, no? And really, they seem to be doing it to the point of excess. For every hit like Christopher Robin, there's a couple of unnecessary adaptations (Beauty & The Beast) and reiterations that don't do the original source material justice (The Jungle Book). And now we'r...

Aquaman is the best DCEU (DC Extended Universe) movie to date, not that the bar was high to begin with. After a string of disastrous and mediocre (at best) movies, the franchise was in dire need of revitalization or even an emergency reboot. Thanks to Aquaman, that's not necessary anymore. Aquaman is not the live-action debut of the DC Comics supe...
Platform: Nintendo Switch Genre: Crossover platform fighting game The Super Smash Bros. series is a fighting game made for non-fighting gamers. That's good and bad in a way. Newbies who like fighting games but aren't mechanically adept will find solace in the game's controls and cast. Hardcore 2D and 3D fighting game players will find it hard to a...

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse currently stands at a rating of 99 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, with over 95 positive reviews and only 1 negative review. It is the most critically-acclaimed Spider-Man movie of all time (to date) and that's counting all the live-action ones. Even if I was to dismiss the critics, its still well-received by many, an...

The Earth Defense Force games are meant to cater to a certain budget and type of gamer. The kind who wants to experience cheap B-grade shooting thrills without the nuance and polish expected from a high-profile studio. There's a reason why they're in D3's "Simple Series" back in 2003 during the PS2 era: they're supposed to be cheaply-made games mea...
Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One Genre: Mass multiplayer FPS set in World War II When you think big fights in historical settings, you think Battlefield games. From the very first Battlefield 1942 to the World War I-focused Battlefield 1, the DICE folks have the mass FPS warfare 64-players-or-bust genre down to a science. The only thing the devs have t...

Platform: PS4, Xbox One, PC Genre: Open-World, Action RPG, Online Multiplayer Fallout 76 is definitely one of the worst games I have ever played. The moment I emerged from Vault 76, I experienced perhaps 5 seconds of being awestruck with my surroundings before killing my first robotic enemy. Little did I realize then how lethargic and monotonous my...
The first Darksiders is a lovely homage to The Legend of Zelda featuring demons, angels, and a fairy stand-in you can kill at the end of the game. Darksiders 2 is part Prince of Persia, part Devil May Cry, and it worked all the better for it thanks to its controls and aesthetics. So what will the next Darksider 3 ape in terms of already-existing f...

Check out their strategy game reviews & features at fragsofwar.com For those that remember the classic Space Hulk game from 1993, it has always been an unfulfilled wish to get a new modern Space Hulk PC game. We’ve had some recently that have been pretty sub-par. Spa...
We currently live in a weird juncture when it comes to mobile tech whence while devices sporting mid to high end specs become more ubiquitous, the prices of these gadgets seem to have risen as well. The Apples and Samsungs of the world are to be blamed here, as these brands painted an illusion that price equates to quality. While that point does ho...

Ralph Breaks The Internet pushes the envelope of the meta-commentary and easter egg references of its 2012 predecessor. Disney's choice to move beyond gaming into the vast digital realm of the Internet was a great one. Just like 2014's The Lego Movie, Disney's Wreck-It Ralph 2 is great because it's not afraid to make fun of its own properties. Six...
Just a heads up: I'm not completely down with the Harry Potter lore -having only read the first few Harry Potter books. Thus, my views on this current entry in the prequel series are from the perspectives of a movie buff trying to get the craze and fuss of these recent magic-laced films. With that said, Fantastic Beasts 2: The Crimes of Grindelw...
1-and-a-half hours later sitting through Overlord's gore-laden ode to America's army laying the smack down on Nazi occupants in France during World War II, I'm not sure what to feel. On one hand, I am convinced that with some slick direction, great score, and charismatic-if-stock characters, you can make a well-worn R-rated trope of "soldiers vs u...
Today, as god is my witness, I have seen & played the unthinkable. I have seen a retro game revival that is the complete opposite and bastardization of what a series stands for. I have experienced a betrayal so foul to a franchise that is just as heinous as X-COM turning into a third-person shooter. In fact, the company who let this happen, th...

Platform: PS4, Xbox One Genre: Western, Open-World, Action-Adventure I'll flat-out say it: Red Redemption 2 is not perfect. It does not deserve a 10 out of 10. There, I said it. Everyone else is praising Rockstar Games' latest effort like it's the greatest game of this generation. I scoff at that notion. Does RDR2 fulfil the lofty expectations of g...

The Marvel Netflix universe has been steadily declining for a while now. It arguably began with Iron Fist Season 1. The highly-anticipated crossover The Defenders made things even worse, and subsequent seasons have ranged from good to mediocre at best. Along comes Daredevil Season 3, which I'm glad to confirm is a return to form. However, it does h...
