Oftentimes, mobile gaming doesn’t get a fair shake. A lot of self-professed ‘hardcore gamers’ consider it beneath them, looking down on the mobile market like it’s something nasty the neighbour’s Great Dane left on their driveway while it had that stomach bug a couple months back. That’s an industry-wide problem though, sadly. You’ve got PC gamers declaring themselves the master race, Xbox and PlayStation fans bitching back and forth at each other in the comment sections of YouTube videos, and Nintendo… well, doing their Nintendo thing and being completely uninterested in what everyone else is doing....

Reviewing games is a tricky business. There are multiple ways to handle them, but no right style. Do you input personal feelings into the matter, or should it be written like a bunch of checkboxes in a technical sort of summary? If you’ve never played a game in that genre how do you know what good and awful is? Should price, or lengthy factor into the conversation? You get the idea....

One of the big elements of gaming that keeps gamers coming back for more is the games’ characters. For many games, the characters are what make it interesting and fun. Whether you love the heroes for their drive to protect others, or you love the villains for their diabolical plans, these characters are an important part of the gaming experience. I’m a sucker for those characters that are often somewhere in between good and evil....

You think you’ve seen it before. More Disney-themed fan art. You’ve seen the princesses reimagined as everything under the sun: video game characters, famous film characters, assassins, parents, young people, old people, etc. I should know. I wrote many of those articles. But now for something completely different— beloved TV shows and movies reimagined as Disney films. See what we did there? We flipped it. Come on. You know you loved it when you happened to see that Game of Thrones-reimagined-as-a-Disney-film picture that one time....

Everyone loves a good fighting game, from the days of the arcades in the ’80s spent pumping quarters into machines attempting to look cool by pulling off the perfect Sub-Zero spine-rip fatality, to Smash Bros. tournaments in our modern-day (it’s a brawler, not a fighter, note received). But one question remains, a question actually somehow slightly newer than Sub Zero or Scorpion, and that’s… Which is better? 2D fighters or the more recent 3D style?...

Key Points 4G and 5G are two examples of rapidly changing networks.Latency is the biggest difference between 5G and 4G.Download speed is another big difference between the 4G and 5G.5G allows for the fastest download speed available today.

Submarine thrillers used to be the du jour a few decades ago. 2000’s U-571, which starred Jon Bon Jovi, Bill Paxton, and Harvey Keitel springs to mind as a really successful one, and of course, you can’t forget John McTiernan’s 1990 classic The Hunt for the Red October whenever the topic of submarine warfare comes up. Today, however, a modern action-thriller that centers around those aforementioned aquatic war machines has pressed the red button and exploded to the top of streaming charts....

As you’re probably aware, Disney is in the midst of remaking many of their animated classics as live action movies. Beauty and the Beast was a notable recent success at the box office, and 2016’s Jon Favreau-directed The Jungle Book was an absolute delight (and has a sequel in the works). There are others in the works, including Mulan and Favreau’s version of The Lion King, but let’s not forget about Guy Ritchie’s Aladdin....

It may have taken a little time to get off the ground, but L.A. Noire is finally starting to gain some buzz behind it and rightly so.
