Apple TV goes above and beyond with its support for the show For All Mankind, creating extra content that makes its alternate history feel incredibly real. Beyond short videos explaining the science behind events, they’ve produced in-universe news reports detailing how the show’s timeline differs from our own since 1969. These aren’t necessary to enjoy the show, but they add a lot of depth – and one recent example even ties into the trailer for Season 5.

After its live-service God of War game was canceled, Bluepoint Games supposedly proposed a remake to Sony. Although Sony thought the project made financial sense, FromSoftware reportedly didn’t want to pursue it. According to sources, this might be because Sony wanted to honor a request from FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki that no other studio work on a similar project – a detail former Sony Interactive Entertainment president Shuhei Yoshida shared after leaving the company.

Unlike Sakamoto Days, which features a former assassin running a convenience store, Mr. Nietzsche in the Convenience Store is simply a hilarious story set in that location. Created by Matsukoma and Hashimoto, the manga began in 2013 and has been running for thirteen years, following its characters as they navigate everyday life. The series centers around Matsukoma—who shares a name with the manga’s author—as he trains a new employee, Tomoharu Nii, in the art of running the store. The final chapter was released last month, and the last volume is available today, February 27th. While the series’ humor has kept it going for so long, there’s another interesting element that fans might not expect.

Many films have used these elements, but a few truly defined the genre, creating the visual style and storytelling techniques we still see today.

I’m happy we’ve left behind the days of poorly made game adaptations, even though some of those older games were fun. But it’s frustrating that popular franchises that could have amazing games often don’t get them. It’s surprising that The Hunger Games never had a really good video game, especially since the idea quickly became popular in the gaming world. Even more puzzling is the lack of quality Lord of the Rings games. Considering how iconic the series is, you’d think developers would jump at the chance to make a game set in that universe. Unfortunately, most Lord of the Rings games are just not very good, and that needs to change soon.
