I was 13 when a friend of mine gave me a single copied CD-rom that said “Fallout”. My PC was terrible, it could barely run the game, but god damn if I wasn’t completely engrossed in that isometric RPG set in a […]
One of the things I miss here in Germany (or in most of Europe for that matter) is the holy grail of television: The 30 minute comedy. Sure, everyone fawns over Succession or Breaking Bad or whatever high-profile high-stakes drama is coming […]
Here’s a little suggestion: Go watch One Piece on Netflix. It’s really, really good. And I can’t really wrap my head around the fact that they managed to pull it off. A little background: One Piece is originally a manga. And not […]
