Sekiro is a game that preys on the typical gaming habits we may have developed over the years. Dodging, a staple in action games, just doesn’t work against many attacks; to effectively win, you may have ...
After watching the live-action Dumbo remake by Tim Burton -you know, the one about the flying elephant- there's been a question that's been plaguing my mind: Where are the live-action versions of the crow brothers? I mean, if you want to talk about race representation in films back in the day, they have that by the boatload. Just not in a posit...
According to statistics provided by Newzoo, Southeast Asia (SEA) is the world's fastest-growing games market, despite only accounting for 3.1% of the total games market in 2019.

It's been a while since fighting game fans had a dose of reality with how a 1-on-1 fighting game with swords should play out. As fun as SoulCalibur 6 was, most people would usually die after getting struck by a sword in just two to three hits, not the many combos shown off in Bandai Namco's crown jewel weapons-based fighter. Thankfully SNK is brin...

One of the most enigmatic sectors, in my opinion, is the gaming phone market. It's one of the premium lined markets in the mobile phone market. Since most smartphones are heavily aimed toward...
Way before From Software loved testing and torturing players with the Dark Souls and Bloodborne games, they had a hand in creating some of the most beloved action game since the late 90s. Okay, we lied. They're not beloved, but more like "tolerated" and "garnered a cult following". From Software aren't like Capcom and Platinum Games; they like...

I'm not sure if you've heard about the recent news, but a higher-up of our country thinks that the battle royale game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, or better known as PUBG, should be banned.
