During today’s Nintendo Direct, Bandai Namco announced that Time Stranger is coming to Switch. Surprisingly, the Switch version will offer players a choice between two graphics modes: a ‘Quality’ mode at 30 frames per second and a smoother ‘Performance’ mode at 60 frames per second. This announcement left players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S a bit confused, as those versions don’t have this option.
Fans can now watch the 2001 comedy Black Knight on Hulu, as the Martin Lawrence film became available on February 1st. Though it’s gained a dedicated following over the years, Black Knight never got a sequel. The story follows a theme park employee who accidentally travels back to 14th-century England. There, he has to rely on his modern-day skills to survive and team up with a woman and a knight to defeat a cruel king. The film also stars Marsha Thomason, Tom Wilkinson, Vincent Regan, and Kevin Conway. It’s similar in spirit to Mark Twain’s classic novel, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court.
As a strategy game fan, it’s tough to talk about how hard a game really is. Sometimes a brutal boss fight feels as draining as a super long, intense match of something like Starcraft. When I think about challenging strategy games for this list, I’m focusing on the ones that really push you – games that don’t hold your hand, or have unique rules that make things way harder than usual. I’m talking about stuff like losing key characters for good, having super limited ways to win, or just generally making it tough to plan ahead. It’s that extra layer of difficulty that sets them apart from other strategy games.
This event is special for id Software, as it’s being held in their home state of Texas, specifically in Grapevine. It’s designed to be a community gathering, but there’s also a chance we could hear some new announcements from id Software or Bethesda.
The story’s cutscene is really fun to watch, showing Atticus and his team using impressive skills to attack an enemy base. There’s a lot to enjoy, including a powerful siege weapon and a tough fight against enemy Wardens who nearly win. But their attack actually unlocks hidden abilities within Atticus, leading to some amazing outcomes.
Similar to the original, one person finds themselves lost in a never-ending underground maze after exiting the tram, with only one other person present. As the lost man, played by Kazunari Ninomiya, attempts to escape, he begins to notice strange instructions related to the bizarre events unfolding around him. Soon, increasingly disturbing occurrences begin to happen, including a wave of disgusting brown liquid and some truly terrifying rodents. Check out the new trailer below.
Many games currently take away player control during the most exciting moments. Instead of letting players react to challenging situations, make mistakes, or achieve something impressive on their own, developers often switch to pre-made scenes, restrict movement, or rely on simple button presses. This means the game shows you something amazing, but doesn’t let you experience making it happen yourself.
I’m still such a huge fan of Mikasa! She always went above and beyond for Eren, and even though it broke my heart, she did what she had to do during the Rumbling to save everyone. It’s amazing how much love there still is for Attack on Titan even after the series ended – we’re always getting little gifts! Just last month, they released a beautifully remastered version of Attack on Titan: The Final Chapter – The Last Attack in Dolby Cinema, which was incredible. And now, WIT Studio has dropped a gorgeous new visual of Mikasa to promote a pop-up shop! It’s so cool to see them continuing to celebrate the series and its characters.
Early Marvel stories experimented with different scenarios to demonstrate how adaptable their characters were. These tales placed well-known heroes in unusual situations, allowing readers to see their powers and ethical dilemmas in new ways. Often, these stories explored darker or more heartbreaking endings than were typically allowed in the main Marvel universe at the time.
