Big gaming companies initially weren’t interested in Guitar Hero, but when it became a hit, they quickly tried to create their own versions – some even bought the original creators. Though the Guitar Hero series eventually faded, it left a lasting impact. Here’s a look at how it briefly became a gaming phenomenon, twenty years after its release.
Okay, so leading up to Death Stranding coming out, I’ll admit I was a bit worried. Hideo Kojima is a legend, obviously, with all his amazing games, but after working at Konami for so long, seeing him start his own studio and make something not Metal Gear for the first time in almost ten years (besides that P.T. demo, which was awesome but just a demo!) was definitely a little nerve-wracking as a fan. We just didn’t know what to expect!
Take a moment to consider this: on the Nintendo Switch – home to beloved franchises like Zelda, Mario, and Pokémon – Sonic X Shadow Generations has surprisingly earned the highest user review score of any game. Metacritic’s rankings show it’s even surpassed critically acclaimed titles like Deltarune, Hollow Knight, and Pikmin 4. This isn’t just a surprise; it’s almost unbelievable. For years, Sonic has been seen as either a legendary character or a series struggling to find its footing. Now, on Nintendo’s own system, he’s unexpectedly come out on top, beating out some of the biggest names in gaming.
Many consider Mega Zygarde to be the most powerful Pokémon in Legends: Z-A. This Ground and Dragon-type Legendary Pokémon becomes available as you progress through the game’s story. It boasts an incredibly high stat total of 778, and its Special Attack is among the highest of any Pokémon ever designed. While very few Pokémon can match Mega Zygarde’s offensive power, one in Mega Dimensions poses a potential challenge to its dominance.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is likely to be the biggest highlight, but don’t overlook Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road, which is finally coming to PlayStation.
The TV presenter shared that the lump was tiny and discovered at a very early stage. She expressed her relief that it had been successfully removed and hadn’t spread to other parts of her body.
I was genuinely saddened to hear about the passing of a true broadcasting icon. A recent statement confirmed he’d been battling lung cancer. He wasn’t just a motoring expert, though; he was a real champion for the everyday consumer, and his work on those two shows made him a national treasure. He’ll be sorely missed.
When Ronnie and her sister Lilly joined the group investigating the disappearance of Matty, they were the only ones left alive after Pennywise violently attacked their friends at the Capitol Theater. The second episode showed that the terror didn’t stop there – Pennywise continued to haunt Ronnie by exploiting her painful memories.
The original Scream revealed Ghostface was actually two killers, including Sidney’s boyfriend, Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich). With Scream 7 scheduled for 2026, both Sidney and Billy’s accomplice, Stu Macher (Matthew Lillard), are set to return – despite Stu’s death in the first movie. But the most exciting Scream reunion isn’t happening in the next film; it’s coming this December.
Paapa Essiedu, a celebrated stage actor with the Royal Shakespeare Company, is taking on the iconic role of Severus Snape in the upcoming Harry Potter show. Snape is a central character in the series, and Alan Rickman’s portrayal in the Warner Bros. films was incredibly memorable, making it a challenging role to take on. However, Essiedu is well-equipped to deliver a compelling performance, and someone is dedicated to helping ensure a smooth and focused process as he prepares.
