Hearthstone Adding Classic Mode

Despite the controversies surrounding many of its recent decisions, Blizzard continues to endure. Blizzard recently celebrated its 30th anniversary by giving away gifts in its various titles, including Hearthstone. While those gifts are well and good, they don’t change the fact that Hearthstone has been in a rocky place as of late. The new Tavern Pass, which overhauled the game’s progression system, was despised by many players, and Blizzard is looking for a way to get back in their good graces....

Hellbound Is Even Scarier Than Train To Busan

Through something that looks a hell of a lot like divine intervention: In the series’ opening minutes (shown in the first trailer for the series), massive, Hulk-like monsters appear out of nowhere to chase a man through the busy, daylit streets of downtown Seoul....

Horizon Forbidden West Spider Man Miles Morales Are Coming To Ps4

Sony has decided to remove several of the reasons to buy the PS5, as it has been revealed that Horizon Forbidden West, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, and Spider-Man: Miles Morales will also be launching on PS4. The PS5 reveal event in June announced Spider-Man: Miles Morales and confirmed that it would be a PS5 launch title. The value of this game as a launch title was drastically increased when Halo Infinite was delayed to 2021, which took away one of the biggest reasons to buy an Xbox Series X at launch....

Horizon Forbidden West S Combat Needs To Improve One Key Aspect From The Original

Taking down massive, anthropomorphic machines was the greatest charm of Horizon: Zero Dawn. Whether it was the dinosaur-like Tallnecks or the deer-like Grazers, there was a huge variety of metal beasts roaming the lands that Aloy had to hunt and fight. Among the machines are some human enemies that Aloy encounters too, but they are far less threatening than expected. Presumably this will be the same with Horizon: Forbidden West, which is a shame, but it could be improved....

Horror Games Like The Medium Are Filling Vacuum Left By Silent Hill

For the past two decades, survival horror has become synonymous with the Silent Hill franchise to the point of the series becoming somewhat of a legend in the genre. The original titles are now considered classics on the PlayStation 1 and 2, with the much more recent P.T. now considered a modern classic by many, as well. With this said, it feels like a huge shame that the series has been absent for as long as has been....

House of the Dragon episode seven left Rhaenys and Corlys Velaryon without a son, Prince Aemond without an eye, and Rhaenyra and Alicent’s respective court factions the Blacks and the Greens without any doubt that they were at war – the “ugly game” for control of the Seven Kingdoms had begun.

How Boba Fett Actor Jeremy Bulloch Set The Template For The Mandalorian

Boba Fett’s green, T-visored helmet is a menacing visage that’s nearly evocative of Star Wars as Darth Vader’s; one first embodied on film by actor Jeremy Bulloch, who, sadly, passed away on December 17 at the age of 75. However, the legacy that Bulloch leaves behind has proven far greater than a character with minimal screentime and dubbed lines seemingly had any right to possess. It’s a legacy to which hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian owes a great deal of thanks....

How Has The Suicide Squad Managed To Make Me Excited For Polka Dot Man

I’ve been tentative about The Suicide Squad ever since it was announced. I love the Suicide Squad as a concept, in terms of their stories and their comics, but I hated the 2016 David Ayer cut. Actually, hate isn’t a complex enough word for how I feel about that movie. I think I like it more than most people I know, because of my innate love of the characters and my tolerance for dramatic set pieces, but I also despise it more than most people seem to care because of how it disrespected the characters and completely misunderstood everything the Suicide Squad is supposed to be about....

How The Turning Updates A 100 Year Old Horror Story

In 1898, British-American author Henry James published The Turn of the Screw, a novella about a governess who begins to believe that the two young children she has been hired to care for have come under the influence of malignant spirits. The book is considered one of the great ghost stories, as well as a literary landmark, thanks to its subtle yet escalating sense of inescapable dread and the ambiguous, unreliable nature of its narrative, which calls everything in the story into question....

How To Save Jump Force

Anime and manga aficionados finally got their hands on Jump Force last week, after months of hype and painful waiting. The crossover fighter celebrates 50 years of Shonen Jump manga with a robust roster that reflects that legacy, featuring iconic characters like Goku, lesser-known classics like Dai from Dragon Quest, and rising stars like Deku from My Hero Academia. Unfortunately, the rest of the package fell short. Jump Force has a lot of problems such as an unfriendly UI, unbalanced characters, and a lifeless story....
