The popular animated series, Pokemon, first aired in Japan in 1997, and in the U.S. two years later. Spanning over 25 seasons, Ash Ketchum was the central character throughout this original run. A notable feature of the show that contributed to its longevity was the fact that Ash didn’t grow older at all. In 2023, a new spin-off titled Pokemon Horizons introduced fresh main characters, Liko and Roy.
As a dedicated fan, I’m eagerly anticipating my journey through “Silent Hill f,” a new installment in the series that introduces me to Shimizu Hinako, a teenage girl who finds herself enveloped by the eerie fog blanketing the quaint Japanese town of Ebisugaoka. This plotline may resonate with anyone familiar with Silent Hill, but Hinako’s tale promises to venture into uncharted territories for the franchise, departing from its usual American backdrop.
However, it seems that some classic elements are set to make a comeback, as Hinako’s youth and vulnerability echo the character of Heather Mason, the heroine from Silent Hill 3. The chilling, personal horror hinted in the Silent Hill f trailer suggests that the game could be drawing inspiration from Silent Hill 2, with its intense and intimate exploration of the psyche.
In the long-running series “One Piece,” a significant detail that remains unanswered is the identity of Luffy’s mother. Despite being a crucial character in the world of “One Piece” as Luffy’s father, Dragon is known, fans have been eagerly speculating whether Luffy’s mother will hold a similar significance. Regrettably, creator Oda appears to have no immediate plans to delve into the story of Luffy’s mother or even introduce her into “One Piece.
Tim Willits, the Chief Creative Officer at Saber Interactive, recently disclosed some details about the projects they’re currently working on. According to Willits, Saber Interactive is developing multiple games spanning various genres. Although the studio has discussed these games, it’s important to note that all of them are still under active development.

In the upcoming game titled “Pokemon Legends: Z-A“, players will traverse Lumiose City, found within the Kalos region introduced in “Pokemon X and Y“. The narrative unfolds post the events of these games, offering a real-time battle system. Much like its predecessor “Pokemon Legends: Arceus“, it retains the catching system while expanding the scope for player exploration. This game seems to be tailored for those who enjoyed the experience of “Arceus“, offering a refined, enhanced version. However, there’s an intriguing aspect about “Pokemon Legends: Z-A” that promises to set it apart from its predecessor and other main series “Pokemon” games as a whole.
These games stood out not only due to their transition to 3D, but also by pushing boundaries through clever optimization, artistic innovations, and sometimes even manipulating memory limits. They effectively redefined game design principles and, at times, even rewrote the console’s own technical rules to create technological marvels.
The character, Aileen, stands out among the captivating and multidimensional female characters born from the graphic novel adaptations of “The Dark Tower” series. Originally from Roland Deschain’s past, Aileen is a character of depth that not only intensifies the drama and suspense during the final days of Gilead and the gunfighters but also illuminates the intricacies of Gilead society before its fall. As Mike Flanagan’s adaptation of “The Dark Tower” approaches, now would be an ideal moment to incorporate the original comic book character, Aileen, into the upcoming adaptation.
Global hunters are categorized using the S-E system, except for China, which employs stars. Hunters with an S-rank, such as Choi Jong-In and Cha Hae-In, are viewed as valuable national resources, whereas those below them, particularly D and E-rank hunters, are often seen as expendable. Meanwhile, false rankings can lead to significant flaws in the system by mislabeling hunters’ abilities.
In 2024, The First Descendant was introduced, but despite frequent content updates and assistance, it hasn’t managed to boost its “mixed” rating on Steam significantly. This free-to-play third-person shooter with loot elements has received backlash over its intense microtransaction system, with some users calling it an unoriginal copy. However, the game has still garnered some popularity and retains a loyal player community. Now, the creators are releasing a significant upgrade for players to enjoy.
