When media doesn’t quite work, it really stands out. A good example is The Order: 1886. This PlayStation 4 game had a fascinating idea – a steampunk fantasy shooter with horror elements – and a lot of creative potential. However, despite its strong concept, the game itself wasn’t very engaging. Even more than ten years after its release, it’s remembered more for its potential than its execution, serving as a reminder that a great idea doesn’t always need to become a game.

I was really excited for Kiss of the Spider Woman when it hit Hulu on February 27th, and critics seemed to like it too! It’s a shame it didn’t do well in theaters, only making about $2 million despite costing $30 million to make. It had a short run in October 2025, and even though Jennifer Lopez got some awards talk, it quickly disappeared. It’s based on a stage musical and a book from 1976, and honestly, I was surprised it didn’t connect with more people. The cast was great – along with Jennifer Lopez, you’ve got Tonatiuh, Bruno Bichir, Josefina Scaglione, and even Diego Luna from Andor! It’s a bummer when a critically acclaimed movie with such a talented cast doesn’t find its audience.

Vertigo is experiencing a resurgence in popularity, and it’s a great time to revisit some of its older, lesser-known gems alongside the famous titles like Fables, The Sandman, Hellblazer, and Preacher. These comics might have been overlooked when they were first released, or simply forgotten over time, but they’re still fantastic and worth reading, especially now that Vertigo is making a comeback.

It’s clear from the video that the studio has a strong background in racing games like Burnout and Need for Speed. This is because Fuse Games, a British developer, is led by people who previously worked at Criterion Games, the creators of those popular franchises.

The game’s trailer features one of our quotes, where we called it a truly memorable experience – and many others feel the same way. Reviewers have been captivated by its unique mix of horror and beauty, with many believing it’s a classic in the making and a standout title in the horror platformer genre.

The game’s art style is typical of Wishfully’s beautiful work, capturing a planet that’s both amazing and full of peril. The levels appear challenging, requiring cleverness and skill to overcome. Luckily, Mui continues to be a great ally and can now use the surroundings to really help you out. As Lana explores, she’ll encounter friends who may need rescuing, adding side quests to your journey across the planet.

Okay, so Robo-Betty Mark III is seriously tough! You have to fight through all the older versions first, and each one gives you a real headache. Then, finally, you face the Mark III, and it’s just relentless. It sends out drones to keep you busy while it covers the arena with traps and lasers – seriously, those lasers look like they’d hurt! Plus, it has so much health. I was watching Jack play, and he used practically every weapon he had just trying to take it down!

The new trailer stars Nick Apostolides, who plays Leon in the recent Resident Evil 2 and 4 remakes. It showcases Leon’s impressive new Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, which was specially designed for the game. The trailer cleverly connects Leon’s history with what’s to come, emphasizing his character development. With Requiem, Leon’s story is still unfolding, and it looks like it will be a significant chapter.

Phil Spencer told employees today (according to IGN) that he discussed his plans to move on to the next chapter of his life with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella last year. Since then, he’s been working to step down from his position and ensure a smooth transition with new leadership. Asha Sharma, currently President of CoreAI at Microsoft, will be taking over the role.

Here are six PlayStation 3 role-playing games that are still enjoyable today. While Persona 5 was technically released on PS3, it’s primarily considered a PlayStation 4 game, so I’ve left it off this list.
