If you already like the Monster Hunter series then Monster Hunter Rise is a no-brainer. Building off the success of the 2017 PlayStation and Xbox hit, Monster Hunter World, Rise brings an even more approachable (sort of) experience to Nintendo Switch than the series has traditionally been known for. It's also distinctly […]

NASA's name for the Mars location where the newly arrived Perseverance rover touched down is the "Octavia E. Butler Landing." The technically informal moniker comes from the Perseverance mission team's scientists, who named the site after the acclaimed author of multiple Hugo- and Nebula-winning sci-fi stories.

‘Coming 2 America’ is a heartfelt and hilarious sequel that doesn’t forget its roots

Stay updated with the latest in Tech, Science, Culture, Entertainment, and more by following our Telegram channel here. If there's something specific you're hoping to see in a Coming to America sequel, prepare to walk away a happy customer. (Unless it's Eriq La Salle; sorry, Darryl fans.) A tastefully raunchy-yet-inoffensive joke about the royal bathers? It's there. A twisting of the Paramount logo to make it a real place in […]

‘Breath of the Wild’ reinvented Zelda games. ‘Bowser’s Fury’ does that for Mario.

It's so strange to me that the title of Nintendo's latest Mario game leads with the re-release. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is really two full and complete games in one. But where 3D World is a reissue of an excellent game that never got the love it deserved because it was released for the ill-fated Wii U, Bowser is something wholly new. It's still recognizably a Mario […]

Netflix’s ‘The Midnight Sky’ raises too many questions to serve its meaty premise

Here's a little spoiler that will help The Midnight Sky go down easier: The only real mystery is that there is no mystery. It's not for lack of trying. Throughout most of its two-hour running time, this absolute downer of a sci-fi drama directed by George Clooney (who also stars) and written by Mark L. Smith (The Revenant) acts like it's trying to keep you guessing. Maybe something's been lost […]

‘Cyberpunk 2077’ is a wondrous creation trailed by a mile-long line of asterisks

There's Cyberpunk 2077, the game that's coming out on Dec. 10, and Cyberpunk 2077, the monolithic creation that's been dogged by a growing body of controversy and criticism in the years since it was announced. I can't review one without discussing the other. So let's get to it. CD Projekt Red, the Polish studio that's also behind The Witcher series, turns its attention now to neon-drenched futurescapes and body modification. […]
