Poll: Netflix raises cost of most popular plan by $1, what do you do?

The premium plan which allows simultaneously play on four screens (locations) will jump from $11.99 / mo. to $13.99. That’s no joke about its stock price; the company hit an all-time high after the plan was announced. No convenient graphic was available to demonstrate the impact on consumers’ wallets, but somehow I suspect the effect will be minimal....

Most of what was cut were live-action sequences, which Insomniac’s James Stevenson says “represents a section of the game.” That includes the dark warehouse sequence you’ll see in the beginning, possibly one of the creepiest things I’ve seen all day....

The 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim Switch launch trailer does a good job of selling you on the vibe

It’s out this week on Switch I can’t describe how great it is that Vanillaware is back. Their absence was felt, and nearly every year since the release ofDragon’s Crown, I kept “checking in” on them to see what they had up their sleeve. Once13 Sentinels: Aegis Rimwas announced I was floored, but by the time it arrived in late 2020, I was incredibly busy and didn’t have time to check it out....

Some know him for his intricate magic systems. Others recognize him as an author reinventing the speculative genre with his unique touch. To us, however, Brandon Sanderson is simply one of this generation’s greatest storytellers. I use the word “great” but perhaps the more accurate adjective would be “prolific.” Since starting his career with the release ofElantrisin 2005, now almost two decades ago, Sanderson has written dozens of fantasy novels,most of them critically acclaimed hits, and there’s no sign of him stopping any time soon....

Void Terrarium’s PS5 content will be available on Switch and PS4 as DLC

A chance to revisit the sadness Void Terrariumis a game that will stick with me for a very long time. It’s a rather sad affair with a bleak outlook on mankind’s future, but with a kick-ass gameplay loop that totally hooked me last year. It’s really worth a playthrough, even if I can’t guarantee you’ll be all that happy when you watch the credits roll. If you missed out on the title in 2020, NIS America is re-releasing the game next month for PlayStation 5 asVoid Terrarium++....
