We at Kakuchopurei.com are very selective on what we review but one device which recently came into the market piqued our interest: the Huawei Honor Play. Is it all that? Is this THE phone to get to solidify one's gaming cred? Will it increase my chances of winning more chicken dinners in PUBG? Am I getting value for m

Short answer: no. But according to Netflix, it seems like it wants to tempt fate and go with "hell yes". The film-streaming company announced that it will team up with Nickelodeon and bring the awesomesauce story of Aang, Katara, Sokka, and Toph in live-action form. Because the powers that be believed that it's been y

In another bout of offering up-and-coming YouTubers, Twitch streamers, and other content creators early access to their games for free publicity, EA has now opened up its EA Gamechangers program to our corner of the world: Southeast Asia. Here's the official PR blurb describing EA Gamechangers: Game Changers is EAââ

I'm at a loss at where to file this up under, to be honest. All I'm doing is sharing the fact that the games industry is a small world and that we're doing all we can to work together despite the obvious rivalries. Case in point, the latest Insomniac Games tweet, fresh out of releasing this year's best comic book game

In a perfect world, I would be writing a glowing review about the new Predator movie that's out this week. But we're in this timeline, and the film is a half-assed attempt at capturing the nostalgia and action beats of the first two Predator films. But I rather not focus on the negative this week. Instead, let's talk

Thanks to Sony and Insomniac Games' genius move of adding in Photo Mode to their magnum opus Spider-Man open world game, no doubt we'll be seeing a lot of creative shots and entries online. If the Daily Bugle was real, we'd probably be making J.Jonah Jameson a very happy man. But first, I'll show you mine: [gallery

Platform: PS4 Genre: Action Adventure, Spider-Man Simulator Amazing. Astonishing. Spectacular. Sensational. Those are but a few of the adjectives games media journalists who review the game would choose to describe Marvel's Spider-Man for the PlayStation 4. But if you were to ask me what word I would choose? It

This week's going to be a little quiet, unless you're into the Asian Games Esports division this year that's happening in Indonesia. So we're going to be highlighting some top pop culture stuff to keep this website semi-busy until September hits. Gods be praised to our pals from The Last King podcast, for they have

The Nintendo Switch is getting a lot of indie games it seems, according to the latest Nintendo Direct video showcase sadly not featuring Reggie Fils-Aime. Let's break down our top picks. Into The Breach (Out Now) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptYwMwxP7ho The makers of FTL has created an arguably decent turn-based

Rejoice, beat-em-up fans of 90s video games based after The Warriors! Streets of Rage is making a comeback with a fourth installment (fifth if we count the equally-awesome Streets of Rage Remake fan game) thanks to DotEmu, Lizardcube, and Guard Crush Games. Check out the Streets of Rage 4 video below which features Ax

We had fun with the MapleStory 2 closed beta session a few weeks back. But you know what this means: the game is pretty close to launching later this year. Lo and behold, it is. Nexon announced that the game will be available for everyone on 10th October. When we mean "all", we mean American clients. There's still no

It's great to be an SNK fan, seeing that it's the company's 40th anniversary this year. And what could be better than an opportunity for SNK to create a long craved-for sequel to a fighting game if fans showed their support? According to a One Million Power translated piece of a recent Famitsu interview (via ResetE

Nintendo recently sold over 20 million units of the Switch; congratulations! That's definitely a far cry from the sales numbers of the Wii U, which is probably the worst-selling console next to the Virtual Boy. Hell, we're not sure if we should even count it in this grand scheme of equations. No disrespect to the late-

I'm not known to delve into the wonderful and time-consuming world of MMOs, let alone the MapleStory franchise. The first game has been around since 2005 and even until now it's seeing some updates and buzz. Goes to show that 2D graphics and simple casual gameplay can take you very far if you play & market your car

Tis' a sad day in the EA worldwide offices, or a happy day depending on how you look at it. Longtime EA executive and DICE CEO (ie the devs who did the Battlefield games) Patrick Söderlund is leaving EA. There's no major reason mentioned as to why he's leaving. Here's the message about it from EA head honcho/human

Yes, it's a little too early for a Kakuchopurei Talk Cock Sing Song episode, but we couldn't resist. After all, EVO 2018 is over and done with, and we need to talk about the damn fights and finishes stat! Hear our resident fighting game guy Mr Toffee and awesome shoutcaster/fighting game guy JandaHunter talk about thi

I never thought much about the Winnie The Pooh animated shorts and feature movie from Disney back in the late 70s. It's a sweet tale of adolescence where the titular character, which was initially crafted from the imagination of one Christopher Robin, goes about his adventures in the Hundred Acre Woods; mundane adventu

It is a sad day for all pro-Overwatch fans as one of the most popular pro players in the scene, flex-God, Gengu-main and Dallas Fuel player, Brandon 'Seagull' Larned just announced his retirement from professional Overwatch. I am no longer a professional OW player. Returning to full-time streaming starting today. â
