In a world where Marvel Films o ften get criticized for seemingly pro-imperialist messages, it is rare to see a billion-dollar franchise so openly mock the process in which it makes its money. Also, those talk radio stations have some of the best social commentary in any g

It has all the hallmarks of great spaghetti westerns (wonderful landscape shots, shootouts, awful voice dubbing) but injects way more humor than most do, delivering a unique take on a tested genre. It also has one of the greatest theme songs ever, used in another film on this l

Don’t Starve has expanded over the past few years, reaching out into the multiplayer zone and adding a few DLC packs. With those additions came new characters to lead in the harsh wilderness. They all have different abilities, which influence how they feel to play and how they approach their situat

Known provocateur Sam Peckinpah was a master of the western genre. His revisionist epic, The Wild Bunch , was a violent tale of bad men doing bad things in an even worse world. Red Dead Redemption II’s similar story about the death of the outlaw age and the birth of modern civilization fits perfectly with Peckinpah's f

Calling a video sandbox game revival story "good" is harder these days because games are usually judged differently than films. While most video game stories are great, most feel like they are mimicking or paying homage to other films. Stuff like Uncharted and Tomb Raider are great but are clearly inspired by Indiana Jo

Two brothers are on the run from the law as they try to pull dangerous heists to save their father’s farm in this 2016 crime film. A major part of the Red Dead Redemption II’ s story is how the main character Arthur tries his hardest to follow through Dutch Van Der Linde’s increasingly dangerous plans and the choices he has to make along the

Years later, as the full, 219-minute version was released to much better reevaluation. Both Heaven’s Gate and Red Dead Redemption II are long, over-ambitious and alienating to most people who were expecting something much different. Both are also incredibly rewarding, becoming highlights in the western genre, regardless of the med

This robot can seem a bit difficult to master at first, what with his weakness to rain and relatively low initial stats. However, the upgrades that WX-78 can grab are pretty worth it. Gears are hard to come by but will bring WX-78’s stats right up. He is also 'charged' by lightning strikes, which will lend him some additional movement sp

Both games are strong contenders for the greatest in the medium and are easily the cream of the crop for Rockstar as a whole. Here are five reasons why GTA V is Rockstar’s best game and another five as to why that title should go to Red Dead Redemption

Red Dead Redemption II’ s story about a gang who’s ambition oversteps its reach is among the best in the medium because it feels cinematic and artful. The writing is almost Shakspearean, with the voice cast giving thoughtful and emotional performances that are unmatched by any other g

_ Don’t Starve Together _ is a fun but often-punishing survival game where you work with your friends to forage, craft, and fight off the shadows. As you attempt to survive each day, you could probably use an occasional pick-me-up. That might mean shuffling players around, making sure your stats are up, or messing with the flow of time its

Wilson is the first character in the selection menu for a reason! He’s a well-rounded character, with solid Health, Sanity and Hunger (all of which drain at average rates). His only "special" ability is to grow a beard, but that can actually come in handy. Wilson’s beard can insulate him in the winter and can be trimmed to make Meat Effigies, which are used to resurrect the pla

You can never have too many items, right? Or creatures, either—living among the Beefalos sounds pretty great! These lines of code will get you the items, props, or creatures you crave. That even means Tallbirds or Spider Queens,

Modifying the config file allows you to alter the amount of seconds you'd like per in-game minute, with separators for both night and day. You can even switch what time a new day technically begins and ends, which makes tweaking your settings a bre

This delectable meal will not disappoint and may just save your run of Don't starve. Lobster Dinner requires two main ingredients: a wobster and some butter. After you have those two ingredients you must use some filler for the remaining two slots but be wary of what you use. You cannot use meat nor ice in this recipe and you need to be wary of using more than one t

This useful recipe came along on the same wave as the Shipwrecked DLC. Surf 'n' Turf is, quite simply, a meat and fish dish. This means that it requires a meat value of 2.5 and a fish value of 1.5 to be in the crock pot. That might seem to be a tall order at first but many of the fish ingredients in Shipwrecked can count as both a fish and a m
