Aside from all the serial killers and ancient demons waiting to either leap out of the shadows and murder us, or simply scare us into a weeping ruin, movies are also full of killer cars, malevolent dolls and rampaging animals to contend with. Given that entire lists could be generated from those menaces outlined above, we’ll be dealing with more obscure manifestations of evil here....

Nintendo has created some of the greatest and most memorable video game characters of all time. Naturally, over time, these much-loved characters have then been made into memes, oh so many memes.

To celebrate everything Nintendo, and more specifically our love for Bowser; both the real-life Nintendo president, Doug Bowser and our favorite villain, we bring you ten of the very best Bowser memes....

Want your own toxic salamander? Then Toxolotl and Noxolotl are just the Temtem for you. Here’s where you can find them. Axolotl are curious creatures. Called “walking fish” for their strange appearance and ability to walk on land, they’re actually amphibians and not fish. They’re also not toxic, generally speaking, but for some reason, they’ve been equated with venomous creatures when they appear in the world of Temtem. As you might have guessed, Toxolotl is a Toxic-type Temtem that’s basically like a venomous amphibian....
Microsoft has made a lot of promises with regard to Kinect - none of which held more promise than the ability to scan objects and insert them into your game.

That said, 2019 did see the release of some worthwhile software, and, from horror to action to tests of your deductive reasoning capabilities, here are 10 of the best virtual reality titles that came out in 2019 (according to Metacritic)....

Launching as the successor to the PlayStation 2 is no easy feat given it’s the most successful video game console of all time. Even so, the PlayStation 3 looked to come out of the gate strong as the first console to use Blu-ray disc technology as well as the first console to integrate social gaming services with the PlayStation Network. © SU HSUN/Shutterstock.com While the PlayStation 3 would never quite capture the magic of the PlayStation 2, selling 87 million consoles is more than enough evidence to consider it a success....
