George Clooney has a relatively simple answer when asked by Den of Geek what inspired him to make his first science fiction film as a director, The Midnight Sky. “I thought I had a take on it, you know?” says Clooney, who also stars in his seventh outing behind the camera. “I felt like there was a story that I understood in a way about what we’re capable of doing to one another if we don’t pay attention, if we don’t listen to science, if we don’t pay attention to divisions and hatred and pay that forward....

Society has advanced so much in the last decades that nowadays it’s hard to properly function without things like coffee in the morning or a couple of beers at the end of a long week. However, one thing remains true since the beginning of time; humans can’t live without water or food. This is a universal truth that Survival game’s developers know too well, and in hopes of making their games more realistic, they add stats like hunger, health, or thirst to your character, so you’ll have to work and find a way to replenish them....

During Bandai Namco’s Livestream for Tokyo Game Show 2020, the company announced that Tekken 7’s next DLC fighter will be none other than Kunimitsu. A swift, deadly lady ninja, Kunimitsu was last seen in the non-canon Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

Miitopia looks simple enough. In a world where Mass Effect can be beaten in an hour and a half, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in just seven minutes, you’d think this lighthearted RPG from Nintendo wouldn’t take too long speedrun. Well, turns out you’d be very, very wrong. Miitopia just re-released for Switch, and the speedrunners have got to work. The original 3DS release already had a small speedrunning community, but it’s a category that still proves lengthy five years on....

Is there any nobler an endeavor than road tripping to save the world’s best boys and girls? I don’t think so. That’s why The Last Friend should go on your Steam wishlist as soon as you’re done reading this article. The world has ended in The Last Friend.

Everyone else has gone!” We’re speaking on Zoom in July 2021, a month after filming wrapped on the final season of the Netflix action drama, and Cox hasn’t had much time to reflect.

One of this year’s most-anticipated releases, The Last of Us 2, is no longer available on the PlayStation Store, it seems.

It’s an awful film that forgets everything that made the original so timelessly brilliant, a butchering of the first film’s narrative that turns the universe into a joke.
