Easy-Bake Ovens: The ultimate in kid cuisine (not the TV dinner,) right? Well, that’s what we thought too… Until the Easy-Bake Ultimate Oven appeared on the food scene. While ’90s kids had the joys of experimenting with the original mini oven that resulted in the exceedingly dried-out brownie or chewy sugar cookie, the next generation of kids would soon be rewarded with something even better. What we once thought was heaven-sent was actually the preliminary version of what we now know as the ‘Ultimate....

Video games have been telling stories since the very beginning of the medium, even if those stories were just about two competitors playing a form of digital tennis. Nowadays, though, the medium often draws comparisons to cinema with the way it can use visuals and audio to tell stories alongside the added element of gameplay. In some respects, this is a limiting way to think about how stories can be told and what video games are capable of, but that hasn’t stopped big studios and indies alike from leaning into the comparisons and recruiting some SAG-caliber talent....

Thanks to the Fire Emblem series gaining mainstream popularity, tactical strategy RPGs are finally gaining the appreciation they deserve. The genre has been around a long time with Fire Emblem itself being nearly 30 years old.

Naruto has come a long way ever since the first manga chapter arrived in 1997. Masashi Kishimoto was inspired by the legendary Akira Toriyama, the creator of the Dragon Ball franchise and Katsuhiro Otomo, the creator of Akira. While Kishimoto is not as groundbreaking as those two, he is one of the most famous mangakas, and that’s no joke. Some people might like Naruto for its lengthy story and character motivation, while others think that Naruto himself is rather annoying....

The PlayStation 4 has been on the market for over half a decade now. With each day, we inch closer to the end of this generation and the unveiling of the PlayStation 5. It seems highly unlikely that this generation will last much longer. The PS4 has fulfilled its purpose as a piece of hardware and developers are likely looking towards bigger sights. The PS5 is legitimately on the horizon. It may not come next year, but it will surely lead the charge when we hit 2020....

Although borrowing heavily from 80s comedies like Big, David F. Sandberg’s film feels like a breath of fresh air after the slew of fun albeit safe superhero flicks released over the last decade. Following Aquaman and Wonder Woman, Shazam!...

To put it simply, Limestone Games’ head has been accused by most of the game’s dev team of multiple abuses, which resulted in most of the team leaving the studio months ago. If you buy this game, know that the people who actually made it aren’t likely to benefit from it, especially since they refer to the game as having been “stolen....
