I became a fan of One Punch Man thanks mainly to the insanely genius plot about a regular good for nothing guy that somehow ended up being the world strongest hero. I became a fan because of the almost perfect blend of action and humour. I became a fan because the fight scenes were so gorgeously animated, I would re-watch each scene religiously for days. So imagine my inability to keep my excitement for season 2 to what is considered humanly possible. welllll....then I got my first good look at season 2 and, now I am worried.

What do you get when you mix a little bit of Tenchu stealth with the awesome slow pace action of Dark Souls? ONE BADASS GAME! Developers FROMSOFT has been serving up genre-defying games for over a decade now and, they aim to wow us again with the release of Skeiro: Shadows Die Twice. We had this game on our 'best games of March' list and, we also believe that when the dust clears, it will also be on our Game of the Year list. With the reviews now out, here is a roundup of what the critics are saying?
Major gaming publisher Konami had been on the receiving end of major criticism and hate from parts of the gaming community for some time now. Most of it came in the wake of Metal Gear Solid's creator Hideo Kojima's controversial exit from the company in 2017 that saw many gamers outright avoid purchasing any games that dare have the Konami logo printed on the box. Complete missteps like the release of the horrifyingly bad Metal Gear Solid: Survive last year further pushed away loyal supporters that grew up enjoying the good ole days of Contra and Castlevania. So how do you get these gamers back? Give them a reminder of why they fell in love with you in the first place. In step, an announcement of three anniversary collects of some your greatest arcade hits, Castlevania and HOT DIGGIDY DAM! FREAKING CONTRA!
You would think that with the recent success of Fortnite & PUBG on mobile platforms that a pocket-size Call of Duty for your phone would be a no brainer.

BATS & TURTLES GO AT IT IN DC ANIMATION'S NEW MOVIE: BATMAN VS TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES18/3/2019
While the DC cinematic universe continues to trip over itself in a continuous state of confusion (although I did enjoy Aquaman), its animation counterpart has been anything but stellar. DC's animation team rarely makes a miss-step as their movies/tv shows ooze imagination, charm and masterful storytelling, a stark contrast to their Hollywood movies so far (excluding Nolan's Batman Trilogy of course). Now those crazy bastards are at up their usual creative best with the reveal of the there latest movie Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The One Piece franchise is beyond legendary at this point. Despite being close to 22 years old, Eiichiro Oda's fantasy pirate epic continues to evolve and expand its branding. So much so that fans can now look forward to a live action version of the show on Netflix soon. When it comes to games, One Piece always had a long and storied presence in the gaming industry, dating all the way back to the early 2000s Playstation releases. However, the quality of these games fluctuates between good and please! please! burn it with fire! Now up steps ONE PIECE WORLD SEEKER as it aims to be the best yet. Here are the critics' reviews:
