Brilliant SFX
Live action GTA
A real blast of a film with so much going on. I saw a trailer a long way back and thought it could be fun, but didn't expect such a blockbuster film.
It's a real mix of Ready Player One meets the The Truman Show. A non playable Character in a game suddenly becomes alive and decides to make his own decisions after encountering a player in the game.
The film is funny and will be especially fun for those who do play video games. Feeling like a real life version of a GTA game. The SFX to recreate so much crazy video game action in real life is great.
Definitely an enjoyable film worth seeing at the cinema and one I can imagine watching multiple times in future.

If you mention bad video-game adaptations, there's usually one director that comes to mind (Paul WS Anderson), and one actor (Milla Jovovich).

This being, at the time of writing, their latest.

Based on the video game series by Capcom (yes, the same people who did the Resident Evil games) which - I have to admit - I've never actually played, it's very easy to spot the influences of said game on the film, which (in the film) sees Jovovich's US Ranger Lt Artemis and her men transported to an alien environment infested by, you guessed it!, various icky monsters. It's also extremely easy to spot the influences of other, far far better, 'creature features': think Starship Troopers, Tremors or even Aliens to name but three!

Perhaps, as a non-player of the game, I'm just not the target audience ...?

A Sgallow Shell of a Game
I backed this game on Kickstarter in the belief that it would be an interesting game to play, particularly given the positive reviews it had received. Oh, was I wrong! Whilst the artwork for this game is superb, the game is strung together very poorly. The rulebook is nonesensical and when this was pointed out to the creators, they put together a video...which not only clarified the elemtbs that were extremely opaque, but also patronised the backers who had funded the project. Having played this game a number of times, I wanted to like it, but it has no substance; the decisionsade in the game don't feel as though they have consequence and I frankly didn't care to invest in the game or be bothered by the outcome...a feeling that was mirrored by my gaming group. This is a game best avoided.

Star Wars: Rebellion review: A fully operational 4-hour board game
Looking at the box for Star Wars: Rebellion, the massive new two-to-four-player galactic board game from Fantasy Flight, I had only one thought: "Look at the size of that thing!"

Loosely based on the 1998 video game of the same name, the board game version of Rebellion is ludicrously outsized. The galaxy, too large to fit on a single game board, here sprawls across two. Rebel and Imperial forces aren't represented by cardboard but by 153 plastic miniatures—including three Death Stars and two Super Star Destroyers.

Critic: Nate Anderson

I watch his videos all the time especially if I'm stuck on a level on video game he's quite entertaining as he works his way thru the games sometimes he misses stuff but that's part of the charm of his channel
