Abandon all hope ye who enter here, for if you open The Door you’ll find nothing but sadness, heartache and a Monty Python skit. Hold the door. And he did. Not since the 300 Spartans (give or take 1000 other dudes who makes the last stand less cinematic I guess) that battled at the pass […]

Since it was revealed about 2 years ago, Blizzard’s newest title Overwatch had caught my attention. It looked like a fun, somewhat chaotic new entry to the growing market of MOBA’s dominating the gaming landscape right now. After having played extensively during the open beta, and with Overwatch just hitting live servers, it is my pleasure to be able […]

In what must be some sort of record, the X-Men series makes its second go at a meaningful trilogy with X-Men: Apocalypse. The last time the franchise went for a triumvirate, the woeful X-Men: The Last Stand was the result. Now, a decade later, Bryan Singer has decided to have a go at making a […]

There are fewer film-makers as good as Richard Linklater for creating a connection between the audience and a set of characters onscreen. The director has practically made it his career’s work to manifest nostalgia and human connection into tangible story-telling, his films each about very little other than the simple, poignant melodrama that surrounds people […]

‘Book of the Stranger’ may contain two of the most satisfying moments in Game of Thrones to date, but like a massage parlour with a happy ending, it starts with great promise, gets a bit mundane in the middle and finishes with a bang. We start our episode at The Wall where, surprisingly, Sansa actually […]

MOBAs and me don’t usually mix! I rage quit League of Legends! I dabbled and dropped DoTA2 and my interest in Heroes of the Storm just didn’t spark! With little else to play this weekend and Hi-Rez Studios offering a free chance to play their divinely inspired MOBA Smite, I spent my time in the company of […]

In recent years, certain video games have taken a firm stance on creating games centred around a theme or emotion, with parts of the indie scene acting as somewhat of a art house genre in gaming, creating games surrounding a tone or atmosphere to create an emotional response, seen in titles like That Dragon, Cancer or […]

Green Room Review

Though hardly comedic, 2013’s Blue Ruin managed to make a lot of noise for itself by being one of the darkest thrillers in recent memory that still managed to retain a sadistic sense of humour about itself. For his second effort, writer and director Jeremy Saulnier has moved up the rainbow with Green Room, a […]
