30 Years Ago, Dragon Ball Released its Most Polarizing Disaster

Golden Trigger isn’t a disaster, but it’s also not a brilliant, overlooked gem. It frequently looks good and has moments of cleverness, but often loses sight of its main direction. The show aims for the adventurous spirit of the original Dragon Ball, but also feels pressure from Dragon Ball Z to escalate every conflict into a massive battle. This constant struggle between those two ideas is why people are still debating Golden Trigger decades later. It’s not simply that viewers disagree with the creative decisions; the series itself is fundamentally built on conflicting ideas.

5 Weakest Alternate Versions of Batman

Batman is a formidable hero, but there have been many different versions of him over the years, and some aren’t as powerful as the one most people know. Sometimes, other characters have temporarily become Batman when Bruce Wayne was unavailable.

Here are five of the weakest versions of Batman to appear in comic books. While they each have some abilities, none of them are as strong as the Batman we see today.

20 Years Ago, Battlestar Galactica Killed Off Its Best Ever Villain in This Sci-Fi Masterpiece Episode

Admiral Helena Cain, portrayed by Michelle Forbes, was a compelling villain motivated by saving humanity, even if it meant sacrificing her morals and the values of the original colonies. She disrupted the fleet and directly challenged William Adama (Edward James Olmos), establishing herself as one of the show’s most memorable antagonists. Cain’s story concluded in the critically acclaimed episode “Resurrection Ship – Part 2” on January 13, 2006, in a way that felt realistic and avoided simplistic portrayals of evil or easy forgiveness.

3 Things That Make House of the Dragon Better Than Game of Thrones (And 3 That Don’t)

Rather than trying to be exactly like the original series, House of the Dragon focuses on a specific conflict – the Targaryen civil war – and a more limited political landscape. This makes for a more focused and intense show, full of drama and harsh moments, but it also means it doesn’t have the same sweeping scale that attracted so many viewers to Game of Thrones. Is House of the Dragon better or worse? It’s not a simple question. Here are three areas where the new show excels, and three where it doesn’t quite measure up.

The Most Popular Game In Each Year of the 2000s

The year 2000 was a fantastic year for gaming, with hits like Diablo 2, The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, and Perfect Dark. However, the most talked-about game wasn’t any of those, or even Pokémon Gold and Silver, which had been popular the year before. It was The Sims. While Pokémon actually sold more copies that year, The Sims stood out because of its huge impact on the gaming world and its ability to attract people who hadn’t played games before. This social simulation game offered a new level of freedom in gameplay, taking inspiration from titles like SimCity. Since its release, The Sims has sold over 40 million copies and continues to be enjoyed by players today.

Players with a PlayStation 5 or PS5 Pro can now find a discounted copy of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League on the PlayStation Store.

The game currently has a 3.2 out of 5-star rating on the PlayStation Store based on over 34,000 reviews, and recent feedback still shows a strong split in opinion – many players give it a perfect 5/5, while just as many rate it a disappointing 2/5.
