While the world is still a few weeks away from seeing Wonder Woman 1984, the first members of the press have now seen the film. While they have been sworn to secrecy until December 15th, when the embargo lifts on full-on reviews, we are getting some initial reactions to the WB sequel, and they are positive. From Den of Geek’s Kayti Burt (um, me)… From CBR’s Meagan Damore… From Nerdist’s Amy Ratcliffe…...
Last year, Warner Bros. made the game-changing decision to release DC’s Wonder Woman 1984 on HBO Max day-and-date with U.S. theaters. However, the Gal Gadot film’s availability on the WarnerMedia streaming service is set to expire by the end of this week, nearly a month after its debut. Originally slated to debut in theaters in late 2019, Warner Bros. ultimately rescheduled the Wonder Woman sequel for a theatrical release in June 2020, nearly three years after the original film premiered....
Leave it to a woman, or in this case several women, to clean up the mess left behind by men. Following the troubled arrival of two extra-large movies in what is now called the DC Extended Universe — the rickety and often incoherent Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and the slapdash Suicide Squad — all eyes have now turned to the next film in the saga, Wonder Woman. It stands as DC’s attempt to “save” its own shared movie mythology, to right what has been a ship tilting precariously on its side....

Not too long ago I wrote an article about some of the worst G. I. Joe action figures ever made. The comments section, being the delicate and nurturing place that it is, was quick to point out that some of the toys in my list are some of the most expensive and sought-after bits of memorabilia to collectors, and that I was a worthless person. With those kind suggestions in mind, I should state that there is no actual metric to judge what makes something the worst, sometimes I choose a toy because it is ugly, sometimes I choose a toy because it is unfun, other times because it will clearly makes it hard to sleep at night....

Easily the more impressive element of Microsoft’s Xbox One reveal yesterday morning was the demo of the console’s new Kinect functionality.

While Microsoft’s presentation was primarily focused on the basics of this new Kinect — Kinect 2....

Linneman makes comparisons to the capabilities of the Xbox One and PS4....

A new 2D RPG by the name of Shujinkou - whose primary goal is to help its players learn Japanese whilst enjoying an epic role-playing adventure - is currently in development. Japanese is often considered to be one of the most challenging languages for non-native speakers to master, at the very least thanks to its three different writing systems. But it’s also an incredibly interesting and beautiful language, with an equally interesting culture that goes along with it....
What happens when a protagonist from a 2D platformer gains the ability to see the world in 3D? For Mario, it was just another jaunt through the Mushroom Kingdom with more Goombas to mercilessly slaughter, but for Fez’s Gomez?

If you watched PlayStation’s Future of Gaming event last month, you may have got serious nostalgia vibes and now we may know why. It has been discovered that Sony has filed for another patent that could shed light on how this would all work.

What Does Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Mean? Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is a utility metering setup that aids in two-way communication between different applications and their respective service providers. The application usually has an IP address through which it establishes a connection to the server and sends its status information.
