For weeks now, One Punch Man fans have been waiting for the official announcement of Season 3. Fans who had been hoping for an encouraging update were again dealt a serious blow. Sadly, Chikashi Kubota, the anime character designer, has revealed that things aren’t necessarily going smoothly for the once-beloved series.

Saitama initially became a hero because it was fun in the beginning, but he took his job as a hero more seriously as time continued. Though he is carefree, he is not quite as relentlessly cheerful as other shonen protagonists such as Naruto or Luffy, differentiating himself from others. One Punch Man, widely regarded as one of the greatest gems in the shonen manga industry, is set to have its own iconic ‘Nah, I’d Win’ moment, seemingly inspired by Jujutsu Kaisen.

One of the most frequent complaints that has been lobbed against the PlayStation 4 in the past year or so has been the lack of games, especially exclusives. Last fall in particular it was a visible problem as the rival Xbox One had several well-regarded exclusives hit such as "Sunset Overdrive," "Halo: The Master Chief Collection" and "Forza Horizon 2" on top of the cross-platform Aaa titles that both consoles share.

In early 2015 though the tables have turned to some degree with the imminent release of Ps exclusive titles like "The Order 1886" and "Bloodborne". With Sony now seemingly fighting back, they've done something unexpected - publishing a complete list of all their upcoming 2015 game releases.

Many still don't have specific dates yet, dates which aren't expected to be announced until around the time of the big conventions closer to mid-year, but here's the list as it stands now.

Eli Roth’s adaptation of Brian McGreevy’s novel, entitled Hemlock Grove, went live today on Netflix. All 13 episodes are now available for mass consumption. That’s where I come in. With little in the way of food, sleep and rest, I will attempt to tackle as many of the 13 episodes I can. Depending on its quality, adult beverages may be required for completion. Throughout each episode I will be posting my thoughts on anything and everything that pops in my head. Put on Netflix and watch along with me!

“Knife Edge” sees the return to the horror genre of director Anthony Hickox, who back in the late 1980s and early 1990s turned out a string of popular, offbeat favourites including “Waxwork”, its sequel “Lost in Time”, and “Sundown: the Vampire in Retreat”, the latter two featuring the legendary Bruce Campbell. Although Hickox did have a stab at the relatively big time with “Hellraiser: Hell on Earth”, since then he had stuck mainly to television affairs and standard action films, such as the Eddie Griffin vehicle “Blast” and Steven Segal’s “Submerged”. With his being one of the more creative genre directors, who always managed to bring a certain sense of ghoulish fun to his productions, fans should certainly be glad to see him coming back to the fold, and although “Knife Edge” is not a particularly great film by his standards, it is still a cut above the usual direct to DVD drudgery.
