For example, just because someone can act on screen doesn't mean they can convincingly voice act.Mortal Komat 1 proved that with Megan Fox as Nitara, not that she's known for her acting skills anyway. Now theLike a Dragon series, AKAYakuza, has proved that not all voice actors can sing, either.In the original ...

Tekken 8 Has a Brand New Mishima, And She's Hot as Fuck
The Mishimas have to be one of the most dysfunctional families in all of gaming, and theTekken franchise has been about their beef since its inception. Whether it's Kazuya taking revenge on his abusive billionaire dad Heihachi, or Kazuya's son Jin squaring off against his dad and/or grandad, there's always some bullshit going on with them.

Berserk Could be Getting its Greatest Adaptation Yet
Ever since the tragic death of Kentaro Miura in 2021, it felt likeBerserkwould never be given the anime it deserves. Even if the manga is being continued by Miura's friend and fellow mangaka Kouji Mori based on his notes, the series' legacy as far as anime is concerned has been lacking. The 1997 series was promising, but mainly covered the Golden Age arc (and a tiny bit of the Black Swordsman arc) and removed several plot threads and characters. The ...
Baldur's Gate 3 Censored in Japan
We often hear about Japanese games being censored in the baka western hemisphere, but sometimes the tables get turned. People here have been enjoyingBaldur's Gate 3 for months, but it hasn't been able to hit Japan yet.

Capcom Aren't Too Happy About Mods
These days I'm not as familar as I once was with so-called rules of the internet (apart from rule 34, of course), but I feel one of the rules is "if you can think of it, there's a mod for it." This is especially true of Capcom's long-running franchises likeResident Evil,Street Fighter,Devil May Cry and many others, where it's common to find lewd mods, meme mods, or some combination thereof. It turns out not only are Capcom aware of these mods, but ...

Saving the princess, or some other kind of damsel in distress, has been a common trope in gaming since its inception, as demonstrated in theMarioandZelda franchises. But a certain game that's been doing the rounds over the internet lately is turning that concept on its head.Slay the Princess is a visual novel set in a fantasy world where you play as an unnamed Hero, and a disembodied narrator voice instructs you to travel to a remote cabin in the ...
