Guardians Of The Galaxy Looks Like Anthem

Guardians of the Galaxy seems to have split opinion since it appeared at the Square Enix E3 Showcase, and I can’t quite understand why. Obviously, it’s a new IP rather than news on Final Fantasy 14 or something like that, but didn’t Final Fantasy 14 just basically have an E3 of its own with Fan Fest? Guardians is a brand new game, arriving later this year, with bags of gameplay footage to show off, and it’s based on one of the biggest grossing movies of all-time....

Halloween Review

Hand-in-hand, this promises the two defining elements of the 2018 revival film, which 40 years later seeks to accomplish what so many other Halloween sequels have failed to do: make a proper continuation (and maybe conclusion) to the original.
