The Witcher has finally launched on Netflix after what seemed like an endless wait. While the series will focus more on the original books than the game franchise, there are still some great side quests that would make for a fantastic scene or two. Geralt’s adventures have taken him to breathtaking vistas, creepy monster dens, and the homes of many crazy characters. Some side quests will take everyone’s favorite monster hunter through epic stories that alter the fate of many, and others are a little…strange, to say the least....

Bowser has been active since 1985, and despite flirting a few times with being a good guy, he still is one of the best-known names in villainy when it comes to video games. He’s wrecked the Mushroom Kingdom a few times, but his tyranny stretches even further. He’s often crossed over into different universes, and into different mediums every once in a while. But how evil exactly does Bowser get? Quite a bit, as it turns out!...

While Star Wars is often considered the king of sci-fi epics, there’s another thing they’re the king at: merchandising. When it comes to licensed video games, most of them are pretty bad. When it comes to Star Wars, though, the good games seem to outweigh the weirder ones. That may have more to do with the fact that there seem to be hundreds of Star Wars games spanning nearly every single platform known to man....

In retrospect, it’s easy to see the formula that Warner Bros. pursued to make The Adventures of Robin Hood, the 1938 sweeping Technicolor classic. Conceived as a star vehicle for one of their biggest icons, as well as a picture that would be the chance for a reliable contract director to become a preeminent name in Hollywood, it should’ve been impossible for the project to run into any trouble. Yet it did since the movie was originally pitched as a Jimmy Cagney movie and was later assigned to director William Keighley, a terrific studio man from the golden age… but one who is no more Michael Curtiz than Cagney is Errol Flynn....

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, also known as the game that put the “vania” in the “metroidvania” genre, has been released onto iOS and Android with little fanfare. The game, originally released on the PS1 all the way back in 1997, completely redefined the Castlevania franchise by adding RPG elements, an expansive map to explore, countless secrets, and a legacy that is difficult to match when it comes to 2D gameplay....

We already covered the PS5 version of The Callisto Protocol in our tech review, but some major issues in the PC and Xbox versions of the game’s pre-release code meant that we want to cover these platforms separately. Let’s start with PC, where DF crew member Alex Battaglia has been testing the game for the past few days. Sadly, there’s no good news here - the game is a disastrous state as of launch....

The Callisto Protocol is an upcoming survival horror game developed by Striking Distance Studios and published by Krafton. This new entry will also notably be helmed by Glen Schofield who previously created another equally frightening title in Dead Space. With the game’s release date already being announced, those who pre-ordered it may be wondering what time they can start playing. Here’s all the information that we currently have regarding The Callisto Protocol’s release time....

There’s been a decent number of open-world racers before, but what sets The Crew 2 apart from the rest is its interesting concept of conquering land, sea, and air. It’s this concept which got me intrigued about the game back when it was first announced at E3 2017, and after now having played it for several hours, I believe it’s safe to say that Ubisoft’s Ivory Tower team made a good choice by implementing it....

We’re just a few months out now from the next Dark Pictures story, following last year’s Man of Medan. Bandai Namco has released a new trailer series for the upcoming Dark Pictures: Little Hope, and it shows how much character choices matter. When the short clip comes to a close, you get to select a choice, which then leads you down a series of videos showing a character’s fate. The trailer is a neat way to show off the game’s characters and why the premise of The Dark Pictures works so well....
