Of course, fans of the Syfy post-apocalyptic horror tale are most concerned with when Van Helsing will return to the air and whether the oft absent Vanessa (Kelly Overton) will resume her role as the chief vampire slayer after disappearing into a mysterious vortex in last season’s seventh episode. Executive Producer Chad Oakes revealed that though the network likely won’t make an announcement until September, its intention remains for the show to “return late fall, early winter – November, December and back on the air for season five....

It’s no easy feat to keep a comedy feeling fresh and just as hilarious as when it started, but Veep has been pulling this off for six seasons. Now, with Veep Season 7 (the show’s final season) upon us, Veep has focused itself into an even more efficient comedy machine that sets out to solidify both the series and Selina Meyer’s legacies on the best note possible. HBO’s Veep has been an audience and critical darling for the entirety of its run and it’s been a home for some of the best comedic talent on television....

Writer and director Dan Gilroy has, in his previous two features, dissected both the tabloid media business and the legal system: the former to devastating effect in his near-brilliant Nightcrawler (2014), the latter with less remarkable results in Roman J. Israel, Esq. (2017). In Velvet Buzzsaw he slices and dices — literally — the art world, only filtering his narrative through the lens of a horror story. The results are original, if uneven, and just left of center enough to have found a home on Netflix....

Marvel’s Disney+ commercial from the Super Bowl is a loaded few seconds. The stuff shown from Falcon and the Winter Soldier is relatively the most straightforward. The brief stinger for Loki asks a lot of questions. But the true highlight of the ad is WandaVision, starring Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany. Even though it shows just as much footage as Falcon and the Winter Soldier, there’s far more head-scratchery in what we see and, more than the other two shows, it has potential for the biggest fallout for the Marvel Cinematic Universe....

Warzone Season 3 is almost here - offering new additions to both the battle royale mode and Vanguard. Themed Classified Arms, the new season - as always - introduces a new Battle Pass, new Operators and weapons.

Every year, it’s the same old story. Jump into the latest release of Madden, play through the various game modes, before ending up in the wild frontier known as Head-to-Head online exhibition. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that in all my years of playing against online opponents, I have had one, maybe two seasons in which my record was above .500. One argument could be that my record is a testament to my skill level....

The following contains spoilers for Westworld season 3 episode 2. A show like Westworld, where human-like AI known as “hosts” dominate the landscape, always threatens to degenerate into a game of “spot the robot.” For the most part Westworld has exhibited remarkable restraint in unveiling its human characters as secret robots, with only Bernard of the main cast crossing over into the robotic realm in season 1. Still, there was another, more natural target for robotic theorizing....

Patches’ is one of the returning NPC from the Dark Souls and Demon Souls in Elden Ring. Like all the installments, he is a sly opportunist who doesn’t fail to grovel when he is at disadvantage. You will encounter him while fighting against him. As a guy who doesn’t hesitate to throw a white flag during fights, he will plead for a surrender. While it is up to you if you want to kill him or set him loose....

What Does Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) Mean? An add/drop multiplexer (ADM) is a critical element of an optical fiber network. It can combine (i.e. multiplex) several low-bandwidth streams of data into a single light beam; and simultaneously, it can drop or remove other low-bandwidth signals from the stream of data and direct them to other network routes. The filtering technology used with ADM is called Fabry-Pérot etalon. Techopedia Explains Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) Thank of an ADM as an on-ramp/off-ramp to a high-speed optical fiber network....

What Does Fullerene Mean? A fullerene is a type of carbon molecule with a particular construction using physical shapes such as a sphere or tube. These molecules may also feature hexagonal and pentagonal shapes. Fullerenes are useful in some types of IT applications, notably, in the construction of nanotechnologies. Techopedia Explains Fullerene Various types of fullerenes include “buckyballs,” which are spherical. Cylindrical fullerenes are also called “buckytubes” or carbon nanotubes. One of the interesting properties of fullerenes is that they can be man-made, or found in nature, for instance, where the construction of natural organic elements such as graphite have sheets of carbon atoms arranged in hexagons....

What Does Magnetic Stripe Mean? Magnetic stripe technology allows data to be stored on a conventional plastic card by magnetically charging tiny bits within a magnetic stripe on one side of the card. This type of technology has largely built the new credit and debit card model, which has, to a certain extent, replaced cash transactions around the world. Techopedia Explains Magnetic Stripe By creating magnetic stripe cards with high durability and data integrity, banks and financial businesses have been able to implement all sorts of card-based transactions and procedures....

Key Points Face ID is primarily used to unlock your iPhone and other Apple devices.This technology uses the face of the user to unlock and authenticate devices. The technology was advertised as Apple’s replacement for Touch ID. As we continue to develop our technological systems, we rely on computer automation more often to do the tasks we don’t have the time or knowledge to do ourselves. © franz12/Shutterstock.com A perfect example of this is Face ID on Apple devices, which uses neural networks to identify someone based on facial recognition instead of password protection....

Twenty-eight years after the game ToeJam & Earl made its way to Sega Genesis, the two least-scary aliens of the ’90s came back to planet Earth in a big way in 2019. Unfortunately, a lot of would-be players completely overlooked these two popular game characters’ return, proving humans truly are as dense as the ones ToeJam and Earl encounter in this game series. ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove isn’t exactly struggling, but it’s certainly not out there topping the charts, either....

Tokyo Ghoul is a weird, quirky arthouse manga that accidentally became a shonen smash hit for the Hot Topic set. By sacrificing the initial contemplative tone for bloody, intense clashes, the manga became a pretty big hit among teens and angsty adults alike. It’s because of those fights, which only increased as the franchise continued and turned into a strange sequel/reboot, that somebody saw fit to turn Tokyo Ghoul into a video game....

2022 started off with an absolute bang in the gaming industry: Elden Ring took you to the Lands Between to punish players, Horizon Forbidden West saw Aloy’s story reach new heights, and Dying Light 2: Stay Human tasked players with surviving the zombie apocalypse. It’s crazy to think that we’re only halfway through the year, and if you’re a PlayStation gamer, you still have plenty of incredible titles to look forward to....

The Xbox 360 wasn’t a hub for JRPGs, but it certainly had a few hits. Here are the best Xbox 360 JRPGs of all time. All Time Best JRPGs on Xbox 360 1. Infinite Undiscovery One of the rare Xbox 360 exclusive JRPGs, Infinite Undsicovery was also tri-Ace’s first attempt at a JRPG during that console generation. They would go on to make quite a few more, with better success to boot, but Infinite Undiscovery stands as a decent JRPG....

The Gothic genre employs themes of degradation, horror, emotionalism over objectivity, and the supernatural to elicit wonder, suspense, and terror in audiences. From Ann Radcliffe to Mary Shelley, from Edgar Allen Poe to H.P. Lovecraft, from Bram Stoker to Tim Burton. Elements of the Gothic genre have been fascinating creators and their audiences for two centuries, and video game creators are no different. From these sensations, a distinct aesthetic and cast of reoccurring villains have emerged....

Another masterpiece from FromSoftware, Bloodborne is a game riddled with a variety of enemies, chilling NPCs, and some of the darkest, deepest lore found in video games. Yet as with every game, there are certain pieces of content that have to be cut in order to ensure a timely release or to remove any conflicts in the game. Sometimes game developers will cut pieces of content that could’ve been great additions to the game, if not outright improving it in some ways....

I’m not the biggest Transformers fan. Well, I was when I was a child, like most of us, simply because the toys were fun to play with. After all, that’s all Transformers was - a toy whose premise had to be explained by creating a television show around it with the absolute flimsiest of plots. Just like GI Joe. Just like Power Rangers. Just like Pokemon (Okay, so Pokemon is not the worst show ever…)....
