Who does not love a solid action game? Franchises like Call of Duty and Bayonetta have embraced the allure of staging interactive blockbusters which bestow players with the opportunity to feel like superstars! Whether ridiculously overpowered or a clear underdog, the genre’s appeal is evident for everyone to see. While the times may be a changing, most people grew up watching the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone blast their way through an entire army worth of enemies, and video games are the closest we will ever get to stepping into their shoes!...

These days, almost everyone takes their phone with them everywhere they go. It’s risky to fiddle with a phone, even if you’re just trying to charge it when you’re operating a vehicle.

The Nintendo DS received an immediate commercial and critical success, not only because it was the best-selling handheld Nintendo device ever but also was the home to some of the absolute best Nintendo platformers of all time. It even surpassed the expectations of its creators, who thought it would be a gimmick compared to their Game Boy Advance and the Gamecube. © Tinxi/Shutterstock.com All who bet against the DS kept questioning the viability of two screens on one device, the purpose of the touch screen, and the need for the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection....

It’s Friday! Or is it? Time is a social construct, so I could tell you it’s Wednesday today, and how could you prove me wrong? It’s Friday because it’s the fifth day this week, but when did this week start? Can’t prove that either, I’m afraid. Well, the calendar in the bottom right corner of the monitor says it’s Friday. Who told the computer that it’s Friday? Anyone could change that display in the settings....

As has been much publicized, the dog is completely digital and he’s the star of the movie! Buck is a pampered pup who does not fit in to his massive California home, both physically (there’s a very Beethoven-esque montage of him disrupting the entire household in mere seconds) and figuratively. He’s simply “too much” for this domesticated life, and while there is a traumatic sequence in which fate and some unscrupulous sorts conspire to dognap him and sell him north to Alaska, one gets the sense that it’s all for the best....

This The Flash review contains spoilers. The Flash Season 6 Episode 5 Well, if you’re going to do a filler episode, this is how you do it. While “Kiss Kiss Breach Breach” may very well be the weakest episode of The Flash season 6 so far, it’s tough to really hold that against it. It wouldn’t be fair, really. We’re coming off what might be the best four episode stretch in the show’s history, so a detour like this one was bound to feel like a little deviation from the pace....

For every hero, there’s a villain, and in gaming, the villains can take many forms, from demonic deities, super soldiers, megalomaniac tyrants, sorcerers, and or seemingly normal every day human beings. Whatever form they take they’re essential because they provide the gamer with a purpose, and done right, a villainous character in a game’s story will often be as memorable if not more so than the heroes. Every good villain has a purpose or a goal that keeps them motivated, and there’s often an underlying reason as to why they do the things that they do....
