For over twenty years, the MMORPG genre has felt stagnant, failing to keep pace with rapid technological advancements. Despite huge improvements in computers, internet connections, and global networking, new MMORPGs often feel empty and unappealing. Many ambitious games fail under their own weight, or are released so conservatively they don’t gain traction. This leads players to revisit older titles for a more engaging experience, while the industry is littered with unfinished projects, disappointing launches, and broken promises.

Want to know more about the villain Victor Gideon and his history? We’ll share some of his backstory. Be warned, this article contains minor spoilers for Resident Evil Requiem, though we won’t reveal everything that happens to Gideon in the game.

Sitcoms can fail for many reasons – some don’t hold up over time, others were flawed from the start, and some just never found their comedic voice. Here are 7 truly awful sitcoms that are painful to watch because they completely miss the mark on what makes this type of show work.

I’m really excited about Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse! From the first trailer, the story seems to follow someone connected to Trevor Belmont, who’s a huge favorite of mine – he was the main character in Castlevania 3: Dracula’s Curse. It’s cool they’re building on his legacy! He also appears in the Pachislot Akumajo Dracula III game, which is like a different take on the Castlevania story, but still features him, so it’s neat to see that continuity.

This new game takes a unique approach by letting players experience the story through two characters: a new hero named Grace, and the returning favorite, Leon.

Five years after it first came out, Resident Evil Village is now available on the Nintendo Switch 2, alongside Resident Evil 7 and Requiem. Thankfully, the game is just as enjoyable as ever. This Switch 2 version of Village is a well-done port that truly showcases how great the original game is.

It’s no surprise that Resident Evil 7 remains a fantastic game nine years after its release. It’s often considered one of the best in the series, and playing it on the Switch 2 confirms why. RE7 still provides the same incredibly scary and well-crafted horror experience that captivated players in 2017. The Switch 2 version largely maintains the game’s original visual quality and performance, despite a few minor imperfections.

Beyond being a comedy, the series is also a heartfelt tribute to classic action anime, making it especially enjoyable for longtime fans. The author’s first short story, Dandelion, came out in 2002 and was later included in the first volume of the series after its 2003 debut. Now, 24 years later, Netflix is adapting Dandelion into a seven-episode anime with new content. It’s set to premiere in April, though the specific date is still to be announced.

We’ve entered a phase of overly cautious game development. It’s stifling innovation, and the effect is glaringly obvious. Game studios are afraid to take risks, and publishers are too focused on short-term profits, failing to realize this approach is ultimately self-defeating. Leaders consistently prefer to follow established trends instead of trying something original. Consequently, the gaming industry is financially successful but feels creatively limited. This is widely recognized and felt throughout the industry, yet those in charge continue to repeat the same uninspired patterns.

Season ten of Scrubs brings back John “JD” Dorian as he revisits Sacred Heart Hospital. The season focuses on how JD’s close friendship with Christopher Turk has grown, as well as his continuing relationship with Elliot Reid. Seeing Perry Cox and Carla Espinosa again is comforting, but the season also makes you notice the characters who aren’t there anymore.
