Every Stephen King Movie Cameo From Creepshow To It Chapter Two

Like many people with fertile imaginations, Stephen King loves movies. He loves them so much, in fact, that he’s appeared in quite a few himself, starting in 1981 with a cameo as a rather slovenly redneck in George A. Romero’s jousting bikers drama, Knightriders (he’s billed as “Hoagie Man”). Over the years, King has broadened his range to include appearances in not just movies, but in TV shows like The Simpsons and Sons of Anarchy....

Fake God Of War Definitive Edition Trailer Fools Fans

The original God of War trilogy provided some of the best hack and slash action combat available on PlayStation consoles, spanning from 2005 to 2010.

There are 13 total games in the series including collections and remasters, but no collection except for the God of War Saga contains the entire God of War franchise....

Far Cry 6 Has Already Fixed New Dawn S Biggest Flaw

When Far Cry 6 releases in February 2021, it will be the latest addition to a series that has been in the works for 14 years. Including several main entries, spin-offs, and DLCs, Far Cry is a franchise that many like to love or love to hate. Arguably, however, its strongest trait has been its interesting, compelling, and powerful villains. Far Cry 3’s Vaas set a model that many thereafter would follow, practically since the moment he asked Brody, “did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?...

Fear The Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 4 Review The Key

This Fear the Walking Dead review contains spoilers. Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 4 Sensitive gunslinger John Dorie may wear his heart in his sleeve, but there’s still a lot we don’t know about him.

Dungeons Dragons 5 Best Rogue Features 5 Worst

Rogues remain at a pedestal for perhaps being the “deadliest” melee class in Dungeons & Dragons. After all, enemies in D&D often end up dead after being subjected to the business end of a Rogue’s Sneak Attack. The Rogue’s damage potential easily places them at the center of a lot of deadly DPS builds for any party. Additionally, their damage output alone almost always makes them a must-have for parties who want someone to dispatch enemies and bosses quickly....

Dungeons And Dragons 5 Insane Wizard Features 5 To Leave Alone

The Wizard of Dungeons & Dragons perhaps started the trend of “glass cannons” in the RPG meta scene. After all, the D&D Wizard began the archetype “powerhouse with a frail body” that many fantasy media still use today. Interestingly, D&D 5th Edition spices things up by ensuring that players have multiple options for building their ideal Wizard. As a result, gone are the days of coughing people draped with old robes and pointy hats....

Ea Hackers Extort Publisher For Stolen Data

A little over a month ago, Motherboard reported that EA had been hacked. Someone (or a group of someones) had purchased a Slack token online that allowed them to worm their way into EA’s network and sneak off with 780GB of data before anybody noticed. The data mostly dealt with EA’s Frostbite engine, which powers FIFA 22, Battlefield 2042, Star Wars: Squadrons, and more, along with internal tools and software development kits....
