Shuhei Tanizaki’s manga, Gonron Egg, started last fall with a lot of potential as a new science-fiction fantasy adventure. The story follows Gonron and a prince who is still in his egg as they battle dangerous monsters, but it hasn’t found a large audience. Recent developments suggest the series is nearing its conclusion – the latest chapter jumps forward three years and sets the stage for a final, quick resolution.

As a critic, I have to say DC’s Camelot 3000, launched in 1982 and running for twelve issues, was a real game-changer. Working with writer Mike W. Barr, artist Bolland delivered something truly special, even if it took a few years to complete. This series arrived during a particularly creative period for DC, and I think it genuinely helped shape the company’s direction. It proved comics could be for adults, and it did so right alongside Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing, which often gets the credit for kicking off that shift. Honestly, Camelot 3000 was on another level entirely, and it still holds up remarkably well today.

If you enjoy fast-paced medieval adventures with compelling characters, you won’t want to miss this film. Interestingly, it later served as a key inspiration for George R.R. Martin, the author of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. He specifically drew from it when adapting his Tales of Dunk and Egg story, The Hedge Knight, into A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

Guerrilla Games has revealed a new Horizon game, a co-op spin-off for both PlayStation 5 and PC. Players will experience a visually striking world with pre-designed characters, and the game was announced just last week.

He also explained that having a long-term project cancelled can be incredibly difficult. This is especially tough for newer team members who’ve dedicated years to a game that will never be released, which can create a significant problem when looking for future jobs.

Many Pokémon Go players were disappointed when the special Heart-Shaped Spinda wasn’t available for Valentine’s Day in 2025. This Pokémon has appeared every February since its release in 2019, so its absence was noticeable. Now, it’s back for a short time as part of the Valentine’s Day 2026 event, from February 10th to February 15th. However, players need to collaborate to unlock it first.

After over two years, the popular series The Artful Dodger is back for a new season! This Hulu original continues the story of Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist, following Jack Dawkins as he transforms from a young pickpocket into a talented surgeon in 1850s Australia. Think of it as a blend of medical drama like Grey’s Anatomy, the mystery of Sherlock Holmes, and the period setting of Downton Abbey. All eight episodes of Season 2 dropped on Hulu and Disney+ on February 10th.

Here is an overview of the game, via Apple Arcade:

We want side quests to feel like a natural part of the game, not just something added on. It’s important that players choose to do them because they’re genuinely interested, not just to fulfill a requirement or earn experience. Ideally, players should feel motivated to explore these optional stories and activities because they’re engaging and fit within the game’s world and characters. These side stories should connect to the main themes and expand on the more subtle or less-explored aspects of the game.
