The Nintendo Switch Is Officially Launching In Brazil

After a long wait, Nintendo has announced that the Nintendo Switch will finally be launching in Brazil. The announcement comes as a surprise as there has been nothing to indicate that Nintendo was actively working to expand into the Brazilian market, especially over three years after the Switch’s launch. This does not mean that the Switch is completely absent in Brazil, but it does mean that consoles need to be imported from elsewhere with large markups and import tariffs, meaning that few people can access the console and its games....

Study Video Games Feared Most By Those Who Have Never Played Them

Five years ago, in one of the more bizarre and random of video game controversies, Fox News aired a segment criticizing Mass Effect for showing “full digital nudity and sex” in the bedroom scene that may or may not occur late in the game, depending on the player’s choices. Those who have played Mass Effect know that the most raunchy content you’re likely to see is a brief glimpse of a butt before the screen tastefully fades to black, but that didn’t prevent guest speaker Cooper Lawrence from roundly condemning the game, insisting that it “[doesn’t] show women as being valued for anything other than sexuality, and it’s a man in this game deciding how many women he wants to be with....

Tales Of The World Radiant Mythology Should Not Be Forgotten

Tales of Arise is the next entry in the long-running “Tales of” franchise, with it being the 19th entry not counting sequels or spin-offs. Tales of Arise even polled as “most anticipated game” by readers at Famitsu, a popular Japanese gaming magazine. Therein lies a problem, though: while Tales games are incredibly popular in Japan, they aren’t as much in the West. In fact, in terms of spin-offs, Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology was one of very select few to make it West....

The 30 Greatest Film Scores Of Jerry Goldsmith

Upon presenting a lifetime achievement award to famed composer Jerry Goldsmith, his equally esteemed contemporary Henry Mancini addressed the assorted Hollywood crowd, claiming “he keeps everyone honest… and frankly he scares the hell out of us.” It was a humorous observation but one laced with truth, for few film composers were as mercurial, dynamic or thrilling as Goldsmith. Responsible for innumerable classic works, from Chinatown to Total Recall, and a pioneer in the integration of ethnic sounds and electronic samples with a full symphony orchestra, Goldsmith stakes a strong claim to being the greatest film composer who ever lived....

The Best Bob S Burgers Halloween Episodes

Bob’s Burgers knows how to do a holiday episode. And Halloween, especially, brings out the best in Fox’s long-running animated sitcom. The streets of the show’s vaguely Jersey shore town become crowded with kids in costumes. The leaves change and the sky darkens. The puns get a little more sinister. Candy and creepiness are everywhere. Ranking the episodes by “best,” though, is a fool’s errand; they’re all gems in their own eerie way....
