The Ace Attorney series is about as zany as you can imagine. Part visual novel, part puzzle game that sees players gather evidence and present court cases to an equally wild cast of characters. Though the North American fanbase has seen its fair share of entries featuring Phoenix Wright and the rest of his lawyers […]
Breath Of The Wild Is The Best Designed Open World Ever Made, And The Rain Is Partly Why
It’s easy to see the rain as an annoyance in Breath of the Wild, but that downpour is as life-sustaining for Nintendo’s open world as it is for all the living organisms on Earth. Link can scale anything in Hyrule as long as he has the stamina for it, scurrying up sheer cliff faces as […]
Final Fantasy 14 Strikes The Perfect Balance With Its Raid Difficulty
I’ve got a weekly meetup in Final Fantasy 14, one that ropes in seven of my closest friends to practice the same 30 seconds of a fight for two hours. It’s a chaotic dance of death, screams of panic, laughter, and a lot of frustration. There’s magic in it, though. There’s a moment where the […]
Who Is Mael In The Seven Deadly Sins?
If you’re currently watching season five of The Seven Deadly Sins, there’s a good chance you might be a bit confused about who Mael is. The latest season only has 12 episodes, although every single one of them is pretty dense – especially episode five, The Tragic Strike. If you’re wondering who Mael is in […]

A Complete Guide To The Danganronpa Timeline
When Danganronpa first released, it stuck strictly to telling its story through a visual novel format. As it grew in popularity though, this changed as the series started to move into other pieces of media to tell its story. This included light novels that serve as the series prequel, an anime that wrapped up the […]
Guardians Of The Galaxy Needs To Embrace Star-Lord’s Bisexuality
Guardians of the Galaxy came out in 2014. At the time, I was at Butlin’s, those little holiday getaways that are the epitome of mid-tier British culture with washed-up Got Talent stars headlining shows. Back then, I was 14 years old, and I wasn’t huge into the MCU. I’d seen Iron Man, Captain America, and […]
The Walking Dead Survivors Ad Blatantly Copies Resident Evil Artwork, And It’s Hilarious
The Walking Dead and Resident Evil are both popular zombie-focused franchises, but they don’t share that many similarities. Walking Dead is about showing the ugly side of humanity when society collapses, while Resident Evil is more about shooting mutated supermonsters covered in goo and eyeballs. They’re two very different things. Well, they sure have something […]
The Quiet Apocalypse Of Metro Exodus Shines Even Brighter On New Consoles
4A Games has become a master of the quiet apocalypse since the launch of Metro 2033 way back in 2010. Each subsequent entry in the shooter series has built upon its own personal brand of darkness, helping expand a world laden with fascism, radiation, and a general sense of oppressive dread that never seems to […]
BioWare Explains Why The Mass Effect Movie Never Happened
In a new interview, BioWare’s Mac Walters talked about the canceled Mass Effect movie, and why a TV adaptation might make far more sense. Walters hinted that fans would certainly see Hollywood’s take on the series in the future. The Mass Effect film was officially announced by BioWare in 2010 and quickly ended up stuck […]
