We've caught a few glimpses of Homelander in action in previous trailers for Mortal Kombat 1, but Warner Bros. Games and NetherRealm Studios has now debuted a new teaser revealing the first gameplay for upcoming downloadable content (Dlc), and it unveils The Boys character's hilariously gruesome Fatalities.
The trailer features the leader of The Seven squaring off against several classic Mk characters, as he unleashes his formidable superpowers to gain a victory before "finishing" them off in spectacularly gory fashion.
Homelander's peculiar fetish for drinking... a certain type of milk also carries over from the Prime Video series!
"Homelander is the most powerful being on the planet and the leader of The Seven, the elite superhero team owned and managed by Vought International," reads the official character breakdown. "In a world where “Supes” are made, he’s the strongest of them all. Homelander presents himself as the ultimate patriot and protector,...

Chances are, if you were even remotely interested in basketball and video games in the ‘90s, there was a strong likelihood that you played NBA Jam. Starting out in the arcades in April 1993, the game was ported to the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis before kickstarting an entire sports game franchise in itself. Over 30 years later, NBA Jam still holds up, with its fast-paced and frenetic, two-on-two basketball match-ups featuring many of the biggest names of the era.
With plenty of in-game secrets, axed content, and behind-the-scenes tales from its development, there is plenty about NBA Jam that even its biggest fans might not be aware of. Here are all the biggest secrets and fun facts about the iconic basketball video game series.

Given their close-knit relationship as global entertainment industries, gaming and the movies have long had a symbiotic connection. Movie tie-in games, for instance, have been a popular feature in gaming for decades, with numerous short-form releases over the years attempting to distil linear, cinematic storylines into interactive ones — albeit with varying success.
A Brief History of Gaming and the Movies
Of course, it’s not been uncommon over the years for studios to churn out poor quality movie-tie in titles that barely represent the characters and narratives we’ve fallen for on the big screen. However, there have been some outright successes and unexpected releases in alternative gaming genres.
In addition to being video game franchises, movies have even inspired online casino games and plenty of other activities throughout the iGaming sector. IP such as King Kong, Jurassic Park and even The Lord of The Rings have all been transformed...

Last year, fans and critics welcomed Mortal Kombat 1 with a pretty amazing reception. Changing history once again is all possible with Liu Kang and his demigod powers to rewrite things as he pleases.
But this is not all good news. Some hardcore fans of the franchise did not love all the aspects of the game; certain details were not what they were waiting for. These fans found many of the character designs and stages to be quite bland. This discussion was very specific, with a description of all the things that this fan didn’t like. This was posted on X.

Not to be outdone by Gamescom, WB Games and NetherRealm dropped another reveal trailer for Mortal Kombat 1, announcing General Shao and Sindel as the latest playable characters joining the main roster. In addition, the trailer also reveals two additional Kameo Fighters in Motaro and Shujinko.
Entitled “Rulers of Outworld”, the trailer also provides a bit of story for the game, introducing Raiden as Earthrealm’s champion. He’s not quite the Thunder God we all know and love, but the moveset is still electrifying as ever.
The new Mortal Kombat 1 trailer also introduces an alternate version of Shao before he was bestowed the title of Kahn. As supreme ruler of Outworld’s army, General Shao has proven loyalty to his realm through countless victories in battle. And unlike the version of Shao we all know and love, this version wields a battle axe (and makes good use of it).

Record of Ragnarok in an animation series written by Kazuyuki Fudeyasu. It is based on the manga by Shinya Umemura, Ajichika and Takumi Fukui.
This is an anime series with all the features to please the fans of this style, in the best “fighter series” style, this time, between humans and divine beings that is wagered in a combat called “Ragnarok” where the existence of Humanity is at stake.
Classic art that clearly is reminiscdent of some of the landmarks of the genre, a series created with the aim of pleasing the more classic fans of these stories rather than breaking away from the genre. It does not want to create a revolution in anime, it seeks the more classic aspects to offer the spectator a festival, served with humor that had its audience in the successful first season and which hopes to repeat in this second season which surely offers great new features.

Shot by an Oscar nominee, written by an Oscar nominee and starring a one-time winner walking in the rain, it’s practically begging for a Saturday Night Live parody. This weekend, it finally got one.
The sketch might be a little late; the ad first appeared over a year ago. It’s been hashed and rehashed online countless times. Tweets have been shared,...
