I saved Alyssa from being hit by the football. I saved Alyssa from being hit by the roll of toilet paper. I saved Alyssa from being splashed by the car. I saved Alyssa from being pushed into the pool. And then, when it really mattered, did I save Alyssa...

Like with James Bond or Doctor Who, a first Star Wars movie is a formative event in a young fan’s life which will go on to inform their tastes in the franchise forever. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones was that Star Wars movie for me. It...

Wholly unexpected. That’s the answer to what is the best level in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. A complete surprise. It’s not an epic lightsaber duel or a huge battle. In general, the levels in the game are a bit of a disappointment. They’re fun but, because of...

Moving straight from Uncharted 3 to Uncharted 4, the truly insane level of innovation between the games is clear to behold. Technologically, A Thief’s End is in another league and it’s difficult to truly compare it against the earlier trilogy other than to say it’s gorgeous and plays wonderfully....

Unsurprisingly, war is a core component of Star Wars. Yet, also unsurprisingly for what is essentially a fairy tale, a morality tale for ten-year-olds composed of mythological archetypes, the presentation and examination of warfare is often simplistic. Yes, the Battle of Endor was inspired by the Vietnam War, with...
