These heroes range from unassuming citizens turned super-powered muscular studs to average Joes who happen to be super geniuses. While the looks and superpowers of these heroes vary from one another, there’s one thing that most of them have in common.

Ah, The Simpsons. Is there any TV show, animated or live action, that has had quite as much of an impact on culture? Its roots are firmly in the countercultural comics by a then-unknown cartoonist, Matt Groening, and had a meteoric rise to fame.

Cut content in video games is a surprisingly common occurrence. Certain items or concepts end up as unused or even removed. Sometimes these are available in the game’s code. Other times we hear about them from the developers through interviews. For the most part, these pieces of unused content are insignificant. You may get a few hidden music tracks or textures. However, there are times when developers were forced to leave out larger segments of the game....

Netflix’s new series The Witcher, based on the popular video game series, indicates there’s a strong market for live action series based on beloved games. While many studios have tried (and largely failed) with film adaptations, streaming television services tend to be a more forgiving medium. Budgets are typically smaller, and with that, productions are lower-risk than films, which seek recouped costs with large-scale theatrical releases. To date, TV networks have aired a handful of shows based on video games, primarily targeted toward kids or anime audiences....

Once I began exploring the older entries, I realised Fire Emblem holds a richer history here than you might expect, and it all began on the NES....

The UK’s Advertising Standards Authority has found several mobile phone game adverts likely to cause “serious or widespread offence” due to harmful gender stereotypes. An advert for one game, Refantasia: Charm and Conquer, is described as having featured an “anime-style image of a young woman in a cage” in shackles and with torn clothing, which was singled out for particular criticism.
