Honestly, it’s not about filmmakers lacking skill or money – we’ve seen incredible war movies from directors like Christopher Nolan and Ridley Scott. The real problem is that those films often forget the people fighting the war. Their bonds, their struggles, even their little wins get lost in the spectacle. But I recently discovered a series that completely flips that script, and it’s been a revelation!

What sets Empire at War apart from other real-time strategy games is its enormous scope, letting you battle across the entire Star Wars galaxy. The game offers three different ways to play and features both spaceship combat in space and ground battles with various vehicles and soldiers. While these elements weren’t unique at the time of release, the game’s impressive size and intricate design helped it remain popular for years to come.

While many talented artists have illustrated the character’s stories, a few have become truly renowned. Gary Frank is one such artist, highly respected for his collaborations with Geoff Johns at DC and Image Comics. However, even with his impressive skills, he wasn’t the very best to depict the Green Goliath’s adventures. These seven artists represent the pinnacle of Hulk illustration, and Frank doesn’t quite reach the number one spot.

The manga series Aliens, Baseball, And Civilization, known for its unique blend of everyday life and extraterrestrial elements similar to Momo and Okarun, will conclude with its thirty-fourth chapter this month. Created by Teito Heji and Sai Yamagishi, the story follows Takatsugi and Niina. While it shares similarities with Dandadan in introducing aliens to a normal world, it focuses less on action, and more on character interaction. It’s a bit disappointing that the series, which also incorporates the world of baseball, is ending before its intriguing universe could be further developed.

Created by Dan Fogelman and featuring Sterling K. Brown and James Marsden, the first season of Paradise received high praise, with an 86% rating from critics and an 84% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. This Hulu series is set in a massive underground bunker in Colorado, three years after a catastrophic event. The story follows Secret Service agent Xavier Collins as he investigates the president’s murder, but he soon becomes a suspect himself. As Xavier digs for the truth, he struggles to determine who he can trust, ultimately uncovering a shocking revelation. The second season finds Xavier searching for his wife on the surface while facing danger from those still inside the bunker.

The Tales of series celebrated its 30th anniversary on December 15, 1995.

More information will be announced this spring.

Reviewing Nintendo’s history provides a great opportunity to consider how video games have changed and how Nintendo titles have influenced the industry. While The Legend of Zelda recently celebrated its 40th anniversary, another popular Nintendo series actually shares a similar birthday, though a few years later. It’s interesting to note that both games were key in starting major franchises and were important technological advancements for the company.

Fans of Oz have a lot to look forward to on Peacock this March! Along with the new movie Wicked: For Good and its sing-along version, the streamer is also releasing It’s Dorothy!, a documentary exploring the impact of Dorothy Gale. Plus, director Jon M Chu provides commentary for Wicked: For Good, and the classic film The Wiz will be available to stream as well.

I thought the enjoyable RPG GreedFall from 2019, which played a lot like a BioWare game, would be a hidden gem – a great game that most people would forget over time. Luckily, that didn’t happen! Its sequel, GreedFall 2: The Dying World, is almost fully released. This is fantastic news not only for fans of the first game, but for RPG lovers in general, especially those who enjoy Dragon Age. It shows that smaller, more experimental studios are stepping up and delivering what many big-budget games haven’t been able to for a while.
