Today, inXile Entertainment addressed the recent issue of accidentally offering the game Wasteland Remastered for free. Originally released in 2020, this updated version of the 1988 classic Wasteland came out just before Wasteland 3. Despite being almost 40 years old, the remaster significantly modernized the game and made it much easier to play.

In the latest episode, “One-Shots,” after quickly reintroducing several characters like Firecracker, Black Noir 2, and Butcher’s dog Terror, the story shifts to Los Angeles with Soldier Boy and Homelander. They’re searching for more of the V1 serum, and Stan Edgar believes a former member of The Seven, Mister Marathon, might know where to find it. Their trip to LA gets unexpectedly violent, but not before the show includes several celebrity cameos fitting for a Hollywood setting.

The Anti-Life Equation is an incredibly dangerous force, and very few beings could truly master it. However, a handful of characters within the DC Universe possess the strength and will to control its power, potentially using it for either heroic or villainous purposes. Here are ten DC characters who could successfully wield the Anti-Life Equation and reshape reality to their desires.

In Brazil, three popular Dragon Ball mobile games – Dragon Ball Legends, Dragon Ball Dokkan Battle, and Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra – have removed all in-app purchases. Players can still enjoy the games, but won’t be able to buy anything from the in-game stores anymore. This change is likely due to a new Brazilian law, called “Lei Felca,” which went into effect last month. This law aims to eliminate potentially addictive game features like loot boxes and gem systems. Bandai Namco has confirmed the removal of in-game shops, and while the games remain playable outside of Brazil, this could be the first of many similar laws passed by governments worldwide as they adapt to the digital world.

The Universe 6 Saga is often considered one of the best storylines in the original Dragon Ball Super anime. While the setup before the battle between Universes 6 and 7 could be shortened in a revised version, the fights themselves are surprisingly well-paced and engaging.

The Harry Potter movies were a huge commercial success, earning over $7.7 billion globally. But because movies have limited running times, the screenwriters had to focus on the main plot, often simplifying or cutting the storylines of supporting characters that J.K. Rowling originally created. Now, with the HBO series having eight episodes in its first season, it has the opportunity to develop those characters and give them the depth they deserved.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard, played by Patrick Stewart, was key to the success of Star Trek: The Next Generation. He was known for his strong moral compass, especially when facing difficult situations, and his belief in the power of carefully chosen words. The character was so popular that Paramount+ brought him back in Star Trek: Picard, a three-season series from 2020-2023. The final season was particularly well-received, bringing together the original cast, and proved that Picard’s message still resonated with audiences.

Unfortunately, that project ultimately failed to make it over the finish line.

For a truly unsettling and emotionally powerful horror film, check out Lewis Teague’s Cujo, adapted from Stephen King’s 1981 novel. King himself considers it one of his best adaptations. Unlike many horror movies, Cujo builds tension through fear and desperation, rather than graphic violence. The story follows a mother and son stranded in their car, battling for survival against a St. Bernard that has become a terrifying, rabid beast. Cujo is now available to stream on Paramount+, as of April 1st.
