5 Game Reveal & Trailer Predictions for Summer Game Fest, Ranked from Least to Most Likely

Summer Game Fest is a major gaming event, second only to The Game Awards, where big game companies usually make important announcements and show off new trailers. This year, though, we don’t know much about who will be there. We do know we’ll see more of Insomniac’s Marvel’s Wolverine during a State of Play presentation, but Summer Game Fest itself is largely a question mark. However, looking at what’s happened in the past and what games people are most excited about, we can make some reasonable predictions. The following list is based on my own expectations and what gamers are hoping for, not on any inside information or leaks.

5 Best DC Comics of May 2026, Ranked

That’s exactly what we’re here to address today. We’re going to look at the five best comics that DC released this month and rank them to explain exactly why these are the cream of the crop. Frankly, the majority of DC’s monthly library is definitely worth picking up at some point, so narrowing this list gets harder every month, but these books have risen to the top of the pile by the narrowest margins. Without further ado, let’s discuss the DC books that you need to read for May 2026.

The Boys’ 7 Best Character Deaths, Ranked

The deaths in The Boys aren’t ranked by how entertaining they are, but by their overall impact. While the show has plenty of funny, shocking, and gruesome deaths, this list also includes moments that are truly sad, surprising, or feel earned. A death’s importance to the story and its effect on the characters matter just as much as a visually spectacular or humorous demise – like when The Deep was attacked by an octopus, which was definitely memorable.

Anime’s Weirdest Crossover is Coming Sooner Than You Think

I’m really excited to see what happens when the worlds of Detective Conan and Detective Precure collide! It’s a special crossover event that will unfold across both shows. It all kicks off on May 31st with an episode of Detective Precure called “The Detectives Assemble.” What’s interesting is that while both series feature detectives, the Precure girls have superpowers – something you don’t typically see in the more grounded world of Conan. Here’s how Precure is setting up the beginning of this crossover…

Netflix’s New Sci-Fi Series Is Officially a Disappointment, Despite Reaching #2

I’m really bummed to see The Boroughs isn’t getting the attention it deserves. The idea behind the show is so fresh – it’s about the residents of a peaceful retirement community who suddenly have to become heroes! They’re facing these strange, otherworldly threats that are trying to steal their time, and they have to step up and fight back. Plus, the cast is amazing! Seeing Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, and Bill Pullman all together is fantastic – everyone delivers such strong performances.
