Spanning more than a decade and lasting for 72 volumes, Masashi Kishimoto’s manga weaved a captivating tale about friendship, forgiveness, and cool ninjas doing cool ninja things. Despite 2014 marking the end of the property’s run on Weekly Shōnen Jump, Naruto continues to be among the more frequently discussed anime. In Japan, One Piece reigns king; however, Naruto is comfortably a bigger hit in the West. Admittedly, this can be partially credited to the pirate show’s awful English dub, but Studio Pierrot’s anime sparked a worldwide sensation comparable to the likes of Dragon Ball Z and Attack on Titan....

Naughty Dog officially announced its plans to bring The Last of Us Part 1 to PlayStation 5 (and eventually PC) with a shiny new remake that will be a “total overhaul of the original experience” at Summer Game Fest last month. The remake itself is not due out until September, however, we are already seeing gameplay leaks making their way out into the wild. Déjà vu anyone? The most recent leaks, which have now been mostly removed from the internet by a very fast-moving Naughty Dog, showed off a scene from very early in the game’s narrative....

I’m preaching to the converted, but video games are great, right? They let you do all sorts of things you can’t or won’t do in real life. You can go to space, battle dragons, save the world, and drive taxis. The last of which is something a lot of people do in real life, but I definitely won’t. At least I have Neo Cab. It might not be as common in gaming as gunfights, but from Crazy Taxi to GTA sidequests, we do like our taxis....

This article contains mild Hollywood spoilers. On Netflix’s new series Hollywood, the Stallions of the Gas Station, circa 1947, fill up a dinner party being thrown by legendary filmmaker George Cukor. In between bites, and biting remarks by the ever-incisive Tallulah Bankhead, we are treated to Vivien Leigh, played by Katie McGuinness, giving an impromptu reading of her captivating and iconic Scarlett O’Hara in Gone with the Wind (1939).

One of the many strengths of Normal People—both Sally Rooney’s sophomore novel and the new Hulu adaptation—is how it shows the way that two people can interpret the same events in wildly different ways. While this can be both painful or poetic, it does mean that some of the events can be confusing, or are left open for interpretation. Here’s a rundown of how this atmospheric and all-consuming show ended, how it differed from the original novel, and our view of what it all means....

Norman Reedus and Tom Holland may have more in common than it seems. Both actors have slipped info they probably shouldn’t have. In Reedus’ case, the actor, who played the lead role in Death Stranding, may have confirmed that the sequel is in development. In an interview with Leo, he mentioned that he “just started the second one,” when the topic of the game came up. Funnily enough, the interview only briefly went over his time in games....

Life is rough on the high seas, and it’s apparently particularly rough for pets. The latest update to Sea of Thieves, called Smuggler’s Fortune, brings pets to the game. You can have birds and monkeys, just like classic pirates in movies. You can even do some cute things with them like get them to dance to your jaunty tunes and carry them around on your arm. Then there’s this other, totally psychotic thing…...

The Overwatch 2 announcement may not have been the big surprise it aspired to be, following the numerous leaks that preceded Blizzcon 2019. However, no-one was left cold in the audience when Jeff Kaplan finally, officially, spoke the words Overwatch 2 and had something concrete to show to die-hard fans. After an inspiring fanservice-filled cinematic that saw the old Overwatch team get together once more (preparing to deliver justice to the world and fight against Null Sector and Talon), Jeff Kaplan went into as much detail as he felt he could to elaborate on some of the things fans could expect from the new game....

Warner and Monolith have decided that microtransactions have been hampering players enjoyment of Middle-Earth Shadow of War and six months after release decide to remove them. In an update from the studio, they explain that perhaps the idea of purchasing Orcs was probably not the best idea for the game and that it undermined “the heart of the game”. Now Gold will be completely removed from the game and players will not be able to purchase loot chests....

With the release of the fan-favorite map Shipment into Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, players are split on what to think of the map. On one hand, the map removes the level of insane angles and camping spots of most of the game’s maps. On the other hand, the changes to the map from its original allow for some horrific spawning algorithm and chaotic gameplay similar to other returning maps such as Crash and Vacant....
