Fans are excited about the possible return of Dragon Ball Super with the Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc, which will pit Goku and Vegeta against their most powerful enemy yet. This also brings the anime closer to adapting the Granolah the Survivor arc. This new story introduces a formidable warrior considered the strongest in Universe 7 – and it’s revealed to be Frieza, who has been training to achieve a godly power level surpassing even Goku and Vegeta’s.

Even though I’m really excited about this new shooting game, I keep thinking about one of the oldest: Team Fortress 2. Despite all of Highguard’s good qualities, Team Fortress 2, which came out 19 years ago (making me feel old!), still captivates me in a way that’s hard to put into words. While the two games share a lot of similarities, there’s one key difference that solidifies Team Fortress 2‘s place as a timeless classic.

Let’s examine the main villains from the first eleven Marvel Cinematic Universe films to see which ones remained memorable and impactful, and which ones were forgotten. Because Loki appeared as the main villain in two of the first ten movies, we’re including his second appearance to analyze ten distinct villainous arcs. This ranking considers how much of an impression each villain made, how well their story fit into the overall MCU narrative, and how much they shaped the events leading up to the current, multiversal storyline.

Let’s consider a fun ‘what if’ scenario: what if Spider-Man’s villains faced off against Batman? We’ll look at seven of Spider-Man’s enemies who could potentially defeat the Dark Knight. Just to be clear, I’m a big Batman fan! This isn’t about declaring these villains would win, only that they possess the tools to possibly do so. Batman is incredibly skilled, but he’s still human. Spider-Man, on the other hand, has actual superpowers. While Batman could likely handle most of Spider-Man’s enemies, these seven present the biggest challenge and might even pull off an upset. Let’s explore how these villains, normally outside of Batman’s world, would fare.

While 2026 promises exciting games for Xbox Game Pass members – including a highly anticipated open-world RPG – January’s releases have been a bit disappointing, with Death Stranding being the standout title. To address this, two new games, ANNO: Mutationem and Drop Duchy, were added yesterday to the Ultimate and Premium tiers on both console and PC. However, many subscribers voiced their concerns in the comments, questioning whether the service is currently worth the cost.

I’m so excited! Digital Eclipse just announced that The Disney Afternoon Collection is coming to Nintendo Switch and the new Switch 2 next month, on February 26th! It’s awesome because it includes the original six games, but they’re also adding Goof Troop and Bonkers! Those two were actually SNES games, released back in ’93 and ’94, so they weren’t on the NES. Basically, if you already have it on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, it’s the same collection, but now Switch fans get to enjoy Goof Troop and Bonkers too!

Josef Fares, the director and lead developer of the game adaptation, recently shared a brief update, indicating that the project is currently in its initial stages of development.

The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “The High Ground,” which aired on January 29, 1990, proved controversial in the U.K. The episode featured a tense storyline where a crew member of the USS Enterprise was kidnapped by terrorists attempting to force the Federation to meet their demands. Originally, writer Melinda Snodgrass wanted the episode to mirror the American Revolution, with Captain Picard understanding he was supporting the wrong side. However, changes to the script created issues for the show.

I remember when the first Insidious movie came out in 2010 – it was seriously terrifying and everyone loved it! The sequel, Insidious: Chapter 2, which came out in 2013, wasn’t quite as impactful, but it continued the story of the Lambert family and what happened after Josh saved his son, Dalton. It’s great to see Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne back as Josh and Renai, but unfortunately, it’s leaving HBO Max on January 31st, so I need to watch it again before it’s gone!

This isn’t the first time the Avengers have faced tough times. While they have a legendary history, they’ve also gone through periods of struggle. They’ve always managed to recover, but this situation feels more challenging than ever. Interestingly, the solution might lie in their past. Twenty-eight years ago, the Avengers were in a similar, though shorter but more impactful, slump. Marvel turned things around by bringing on writer Kurt Busiek and artist George Perez for Avengers (Vol. 3). That run could be the key to the team’s future, but not in a way people might expect.
