In musical theater, sequels are few and far between, and when they do exist they usually aren’t very good. For example, you’ve probably heard of Phantom of the Opera, the massively successful show from Andrew Lloyd Webber, but you probably don’t know anything about its sequel, Love Never Dies. There’s a reason for that—it kind of sucks! So when 2023’s Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical dared to test its luck with the release of the Orpheus DLC—set after the base game’s conclusion—I was surprised to say the least. What shocked me, however, is just how much better than the original release Stray Gods: Orpheus manages to be.

The new Borderlands movie opened to abysmal reviews from fans and critics alike. One big complaint is that the PG-13 film lacks the gore and violence found in the M-rated games. However, according to one person involved in the creation of the live-action adaptation, they filmed plenty of gory moments that didn’t make the final cut.

Bloober Team, it’s fair to say, is not everyone’s cup of tea. Some people like what they do quite a lot, and others, well, not so much. So when Konami announced the Silent Hill 2 remake in 2022, and that Bloober was making it, the reaction was not universally enthusiastic. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno acknowledged the apprehension but said the studio has come a long way over the years and expressed hope that fans will “give us a chance” to prove what it can do.

Borderlands 3 launched in 2019, so you might not expect an update for the looter shooter in 2024.

Eli Roth isn’t a director you can put in a box. Despite breaking into the film scene with beloved horror movies, such as Cabin Fever and Hostel, Roth has proven himself a versatile writer and director. While it might be surprising to some that his newest project is the highly anticipated Borderlands movie, which will be released in theaters on August 9, 2024, it actually makes plenty of sense for the creative, who has continued to find success in other genres and the project fits his tastes perfectly.

The Best Rated Video Game Ever Released 26 Years Ago

“That’s a great wide shot,” Chris Daly, a reality TV producer for over 17 years, says generously. “That shot helps the cast not feel like they’re being watched, and the audience like it’s not a planned shot. It’s not a set scene, it feels more ‘real’.” I’m playing the demo for The Crush House, a reality-TV-inspired dating game developed by Nerial and published by Devolver Digital, and I’m trying to appease a specific kind of audience: voyeurs. Daly is watching me play via Discord stream, and chiming in with his expert knowledge as I attempt to craft a hit series.
