I'm not usually a fan of games that mainly include the use of Quick Time Action Sequences but after playing, Detroit: Become Human, I can honestly say that it is literally one of the greatest games ever made. Despite being out since 2018, I only purchased Detroit: Become Human just over a week ago and I'm gutted that I've never played it sooner, so I could should appreciation towards its Developers, actors and actresses. What I love most about Detroit: Become Human, is the fact that it feels more than just a game. The main 3 Protagonists (Connor, Kara and Markus) are all unique in their own right and even though, each characters storyline is different fron the next, they all want the same thing, which is to be free. Along the way, each character will meet their own individual Antagonist, who are Carl's son Leo (Markus), Detective Gavin Reed (Connor) and Alice's Dad, Todd (Kara). These characters are so believable, you can't help but hate them and when something bad happens to them, you're pleased about it. There are moments where you get to interact with civilians (preacher, street musician, hot dog vendor), who will show the characters more hatred. Detroit: Become Human uses the "butterfly effect", meaning that the players actions will determine the characters outcome and with multiple different endings, scenarios and deaths to see, Detroit: Become Human definitely has replay value.

NO SPOILERS After debating whether to give this film a go, I decided to watch it and it definitely doesn't get the recognition it deserves. The film starts with a prank before cutting to some footage of teenagers playing pranks and posting them to their video streaming channel, basically the real version of "YouTube". At one of the boys homes, two of the pranksters are having a night of watching movies and drinking beer but then when one of the Teens house phone rings, the voice on the other end starts to play the pranksters at their own game with deadly consequences. Filled with twists, turns and an ending that wasn't expected, Don't Hang Up is definitely a must see from lovers of the Scream franchise and classic teen horrors.

NO SPOLIERS 9 supposed strangers, taken by a masked figure, find themselves in a room tied to metal poles. As the story unravels, you find out that there's something sinister connecting these "strangers" than you first realised as the captives secrets start to be revealed. Not the worst film I've ever seen but obviously not the best. Not really a well known cast apart from Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Clarrisa Explains It All) and from the start the film kicks off, so there's not long to wait for something to actually happen.

* WARNING SOME SPOILERS * Farcry: New Dawn really is a beautiful sequel to it's predecessor Farcry 5, which I would strongly recommend playing before starting New Dawn. The World of New Dawn is now a wasteland full of highwaymen, vicious animals including new types (Alligator's, Sharks and powerful mutated forms of Bisons, Bulls and Bears). Players who have played Farcry 5 will love discovering the ruins and modifications of locations including John Seeds ranch, Joseph's Island, Rye and Sons Airstrip, Falls End and the Bunker. You'll also see some familiar faces including Nick Rye, his wife Kim and their grown up teenage Daughter Carmine, Super Sniper Grace, Sharkey and Hurk Jr also make a reappearance to help along the way. Prepare for a fight as you face off against a pair of Twins and their group of Highwaymen.

Seriously don't waste your time by giving it a try: Pros: 1. Despite the film being made in 2009, the producers, camerawork & set designers did a very good job of making you think you're actually watching a horror film that was made in the late 1970s/early 80s. Cons: 1. This film is so painfully slow that when something interesting does happen, you're that bored you miss it. 2. Nothing gory happens until 35 minutes into the film and then again, nothing happens until 20 minutes before the film ends. 3. Typical storyline of a pretty girl who is at college, she has no money so she takes up a local babysitting job but then soon realises she made a huge mistake. 4. Boring characters, none of which you get taken in by. 5. Only 2 scenes in the film are "gory". 6. You've just lost an hour and a half of your life watching this tripe.
