You could spend an entire lifetime debating which Stephen King movie is the best. Whether you prefer It ’s terrifying jump scares, The Shining ’s building dread, or the freaky evil kids in Children of the Corn , King's writing has inspired a great film for every type of horror fan. However, there's one I'd personally put above the rest: the slow-boil thriller Misery , which manages to turn a story about two characters stuck in a house together into one of the scariest experiences a King fan can experience. source https://www.polygon.com/send-help-streaming-hulu/

On Wednesday, Nintendo announced the next Star Fox game with approximately, oh, five minutes of lead time. Star Fox (2026) will be released June 25 for Nintendo Switch 2, and is based on Star Fox 64 , Fox McCloud's 1997 showing on Nintendo 64. It is but one of many remakes (or reimaginations, or recreations, or re-whatevers) of Star Fox 64 . By my count, on technicalities at least, this is the fifth time we're getting a version of this game — not counting its addition to the Nintendo Classics library. source https://www.polygon.com/star-fox-2026-remake-64-3d-zero/

Sega's Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, creators of the Yakuza / Like a Dragon and Judgment series, has just pulled back the curtain on its latest action-adventure game.

It will also be a day-one title on Xbox Game Pass. source https://www.polygon.com/stranger-than-heaven-xbox-showcase/

Throughout this season of Daredevil: Born Again , the political parallels seemed clear. Mayor Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio), as a temperamental New York businessman who rose to power through fear and intimidation, is an obvious stand-in for President Donald Trump. Despite protests from Charlie Cox that the similarities are “ purely coincidental ,” fans began spotting similarities during the first season of the Disney Plus series. This season, it’s only grown more obvious with Fisk’s command of his Anti-Vigilante Task Force (AVTF), a rogue paramilitary force that is harassing both vigilantes and ordinary citizens on the streets of New York — a clear allegory for ICE. source https://www.polygon.com/daredevil-born-again-season-2-finale-pro-january-6th/

In Diablo 4 , the vast map of Sanctuary is the stage where humans try to survive the whims of demons and angels. The land created by Lilith and Inarius features unique locations, from the rainy Tirmair in Scosglen to the arid battlefield of Alzuuda in the Dry Steppes — and each area is marked by the people who live there and their culture. source https://www.polygon.com/c/diablo-4-guides/23778174/diablo-iv-map-altars-of-lilith-dungeons-waypoints/
