Back with a vengeance Whoa.Castlevaniain modern times? What did I miss? I really need to getLords of Shadowout of my backlog in preparation forthe sequel. This brief trailer for the game was broadcast during the 2012 Spike VGAs, showing a very unhappy Prince of Darkness. Looks great, visually. According toproducer Dave Cox, nothing shown in the trailer is CGI — it was all “captured direct from the game.” I have to wonder if we’ll be forced to start off weak and build our powers up over the beginning hours of the game....
Royal Fumble One of the grossest releases of last year was 2K Games’ abominable wrestling simWWE 2K20,a gamewhich launched so bereft of acceptable qualityit was outrageous that it hit the shelves at all.

Whenever I sit down to watch something new on Netflix, I feel paralyzed. It’s a pretty common feeling, choice paralysis, and it comes from having so many options for what you could invest the next few hours in that you end up not wanting to invest them in anything at all....
