It's been two years since actress Kirstie Alley died from colon cancer in 2022 at just 71. She blazed her way to fame with her big break as Vulcan Starfleet Lt. Saavak in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn (1982) and sealed her stardom with her Emmy-winning performance as Rebecca Howe in the last six seasons of Cheers (NBC, 1982-1993). This is her story.

Remember when we all played Astro’s Playroom, which came pre-installed on every PlayStation 5, and enjoyed a collective nostalgia trip through Sony’s video game history, coupled with a great deal of hope for the future of our shiny new consoles? The platformer pays tribute to PlayStation’s past with cute little robot cameos representing nearly every video game hero from every era remotely associated with the brand. It was more or less a guided tour through the legacy of one of the big three, and after the PS4 solidified Sony as top dog in the console landscape, I was certainly in the mood to look back at how we got here when the PS5 launched in 2020. Now we have Astro Bot, the excellent follow-up that builds upon all the tight platforming, adorable robo aesthetics, and PlayStation nostalgia of that pack-in game. But it’s been four years since the PS5 launched with Astro’s Playroom installed and the new game also inadvertently spotlights the fact that, despite four trips around the sun, the system has remarkably little to show for it.

Before they became turn-based RPGs led by the world’s goofiest man, the Like a Dragon series—then known in the west as Yakuza—comprised about 6 mainline titles that followed the hardships of Kazuma Kiryu, gaming’s greatest yakuza and dad. Following him since his earliest days in the life of organized crime, the series has spanned decades as Kiryu grows from a young, but loyal footsoldier into one of the most revered and wanted men in Japan. Kiryu’s saga, which was set to end with Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, has since been repackaged and sold as Yakuza Complete Series, and it’s currently on sale at an incredibly steep discount.

Haliey Welch, better known online as the “Hawk Tuah Girl,” is launching a podcast called Talk Tuah on Betr, a sports gambling and media company owned by Jake Paul. In June 2024, a video was posted of Welch being asked, “What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?” Her response, “You gotta give ‘em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thang,” went viral online and quickly became a popular meme.
