7 Sonic Easter Eggs In The Knuckles Show
29.4.2024
The Knuckles Paramount+ show is real bad at giving Sonic the Hedgehog characters the spotlight. Despite having his name at the top, Knuckles is only in the show for half its runtime and barely speaks when he’s there. But despite the lack of anthropomorphic characters throughout, the show does have...
Manor Lords Players Can’t Get Families To Stop Being Homeless
26.4.2024
As its name suggests, Manor Lords is a city builder about managing a medieval village. You help it grow, fight off bandits, and eventually take part in larger military campaigns. But none of it amounts to a hill of beans if you can’t get families to move in and help your society grow, and some...
The Tortured Poets Department Is The Dark Souls Of Taylor Swift Albums
26.4.2024
In the days after the April 19 release of The Tortured Poets Department, the latest album from Taylor Swift, I came across a presentation explaining the artist’s relationship with 1975 frontman Matty Healy. It is over one hundred pages long, and it’s not the only presentation, video, or article...
The Knuckles TV Show Has A Wild Reference To Sonic ‘06
26.4.2024
I didn’t love the Knuckles show, but as a long-time Sonic fan, one of its six episodes stuck out to me for a few reasons. One, it’s easily the most representative of the show’s problems with excluding its titular hero, but it also drops a huge lore bomb in the wildest way possible. It all ties into...
The Internet Reacts To The Knuckles Show
26.4.2024
The Knuckles show is out today on Paramount+. As Kotaku’s resident Sonic (eh, Shadow, really) sicko, I did not like it! I gave it a broadly negative review and was especially caught off guard by how little the titular punch-throwing echidna is actually in it. Now that the show is available...

Deadpool & Wolverine’s Cassandra Nova Signals A Surprising Comic Influence
24.4.2024
The latest trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine gave audiences their first good look at the movie’s big bad, Cassandra Nova. She’s an X-Men character with a weird history in the comics and no obvious connection to Deadpool. So how does she fit into the merc with a mouth’s introduction into the MCU?...
Deadpool & Wolverine’s New Trailer Puts The Spotlight On Logan
22.4.2024
Deadpool & Wolverine is bringing Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s iconic X-Men superhero characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe through a bunch of multiverse mumbo jumbo. But really, the most exciting thing about it is that it’s a second chance for both these actors to star as their...
Knuckles Is Barely In His Paramount+ Show
22.4.2024
I had a lot of expectations for the Knuckles live-action mini-series that, it turns out, might have been a bit too lofty. But I don’t think the expectation that the titular echidna voiced by Idris Elbawould be in a show with his name at the top was that outrageous. I’m sad to report that Knuckles...
The Knuckles Show Isn’t The Spin-Off Its Hero Deserves
22.4.2024
It’s a good thing Knuckles, the six-episode Paramount+ mini-series is coming out during a fever pitch of hype for Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

Pokémon’s All-Pervading Positivity: How The Euro Championships Spread Infectious Joy
10.4.2024
The feeling of being somewhere overwhelmingly positive is unusual. In 2024, it seems ever-more likely that even the most upbeat of events would be coated in a veneer of cynicism, if not outright skepticism. But at the Pokémon Europe International Championships (EUIC), every person I spoke to...

How To Romance Tifa In FF7 Rebirth
19.3.2024
Like the original 1997 RPG, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth lets you go on a nice little date with all but one member of the party (sorry, Cait Sith). And while Rebirth has an easier-to-understand relationship system than the original game, it can still be a little confusing. That makes picking...
