11 Games That Need Sequels
There are some games that seem to get infinite, needless sequels. Then there are other games that we love that get an update every other year, or maybe once a console cycle. Then there are the ones that torture us by never receiving a proper sequel, or at least taking longer than anyone can stand. These twelve games need a sequel like, yesterday.

'Doom', the Video Game
Doom is one of the most famous and pioneering first-shooter person video games, creating an immersive atmosphere and entertaining gameplay. There are countless articles, videos game reviews, and let’s play on each Doom game, so I will direct you to those if you are interested in knowing more about this epic game. I am also not a game expert—even though I love playing video games—and I am sure many people can introduce, and analyze the Doom universe much better than me.

10 Backgrounds for Your Spellcasters
Magic is one of the most potent tools in a fantasy setting, and it comes in many forms. A gift from the gods, a product of long study, an accident of birth, unlocking the mystical potential of music, or a bargain with an eldritch being are all viable paths to power. The thing many of us forget, though, is that these magic users come from even more diverse backgrounds, and they use their spells in a variety of different ways.

'Vandal Hearts'
Vandal Hearts was released to the Playstation by Konami in 1996. It was later released to the Sega Saturn as well. Vandal Hearts was the first strategy game I ever played. I did play Ogre Battle on the SNES before Vandal Hearts, but I just can’t classify Ogre Battle as a strategy game since there’s no strategy involved, but this isn’t an Ogre Battle review, so I’ll stop talking about it.

Two Popular Video Games Turned into Live-Action Films
Popular video games turned into live-action films has been a favorite thing to do. Two films are getting released Detective Pikachu Pokémon and Sonic the Hedgehog. In my opinion, Detective Pikachu Pokémon looks more promising because the characters seem so realistic, almost like they could actually exist. There was so much detail on the Pokémon—everything from the hairs, the skin, even the eyes. This was possible thanks to RJ Palmer, a concept artist at Ubisoft. He used real animals for inspiration, and when he draws, RJ Palmer said he uses a Wacom tablet and Adobe Photoshop. RJ Palmer has been doing concept art for characters and the environment, which is why he helps come up with the initial design for Pokémon. The other reason I think the film was great is because it's not starting from the very beginning like other productions have when making a film. The story of the film begins from another, in fact, an actual game that is called Detective Pikachu Pokémon. It follows a guy name Tim Goodman who teams up with a Pikachu that is more intelligent than any other Pikachu, and yes Tim can understand him, just like the film. The main Pokémon protagonist Pikachu is voiced by Ryan Reynolds. I thought that was amazing because I felt like I was watching Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds plays the Marvel comic "Merc with a month" character Deadpool). The film has a slapstick comedy feel to it, and it has the right message in the movie but you got to see the movie to see what I mean.

How I Would Make the 'Spider-Man 2' PS5 Video Game Part 1
Let me just start off by saying that the Spider-Man PS4 exclusive game made by Insomniac in 2018 is one of my favourite games of all time and probably game of the year for me personally. I found its storytelling and gameplay mechanics to be perfectly balanced (as all things should be) and the game was just flat out fun.

Bethesda Game Studios Is Digging Themselves a Grave
Bethesda Gaming company, best known for titles such as the Elder Scrolls series and the Fallout franchise seems to be in hot water yet again. Seems they can now add plagiarism to the ever-growing list of things they’ve tried to get away with. The newest content sure to arrive for the Elder Scrolls franchise titled “Elsweyr” was lifted from a Dungeons and Dragons Campaign, and copied almost to the exact likeness by Wizards of the Coast, owners of D&D. This company didn’t even have the decency to make an original character; they copied one straight from the D&D campaign they used titled “The Black Road” written by Paige Leitman and Ben Heisler published back in 2016.

'Assassin's Creed Rogue' Could Be the Most Underrated Game in the Series
I have been a fan of the Assassin’s Creed game series since way back a couple of years ago, when I discovered it through the internet. I wasn’t so fond of video games back then. I only played a few online games, as well as some video games from Grand Theft Auto to Left 4 Dead. When I saw Assassin’s Creed for the first time on YouTube by watching its game trailers, I was instantly stunned by it. I could consider myself as a history lover, and I also wanted to learn how to do parkour, as well as fighting sports, and swordsmanship ever since I was a kid, and Assassin’s Creed mixed all three, which made the game my instant favourite. Unfortunately though, since I have no proper computer to play the game on, let alone money to buy it in the first place, or even time to consider playing it, I have no choice, but to satisfy my love for the game by watching walkthroughs on YouTube, reading about the game series on fan wikis, and in Wikipedia, and if I got the time and permission, to play some of the game in an internet cafe, often for around one to two hours. As my knowledge of the game’s story and features grew, so did my desire to play it. I finally got a chance to do just that when I had my own laptop, and an internet connection in our home. I could choose a lot of the games in the Assassin’s Creed series to download from. There is Assassin’s Creed 3 set in America during the American Revolutionary War. There is Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag set in the Golden Age of Piracy. There is also Assassin’s Creed Unity set in France before and during the French Revolution. But of all the games in Assassin’s Creed that caught my eyes first, Assassin’s Creed Rogue, which was a prequel to Assassin’s Creed Unity and even Assassin’s Creed 3, was the one that gained my attention first, and therefore the first game in the series I decided to play before the others.
