, looks at the new batch of classics that have emerged from an evolving era of entertainment.
The idea of marathoning TV shows existed before the advent of streaming, but Netflix turned it into a model. Though the term began popping up in the 1990s, the streaming service popularized “binge-watching” in 2013 once Netflix rebranded from a TV-on-DVD mail service to a platform producing original content. In the years since, this model has changed not only the way we as consumers and fans watch television, but arguably also how it’s created and written. More and more shows feel designed from the jump to be binged in one sitting or at least in batches of multiple episodes with changes to traditional pace and structure making the next episode almost imperative to understand what is going on.

The Fable franchise has a strong following and over the years we’ve received a few installments. However, the title became dormant and those that were waiting on a new game had to resort towards some other similar titles. Fortunately, Microsoft has brought this IP off the ice and has a new reboot in the works over at Playground Games.

Before viewers who raved about The Witcher Netflix series could be called posers by those who have played
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, gamers who raved about The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt could be called posers by those who already played The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings.
The second game in the series and the series’ first console outing (the first was released only on PC) is an exceptional achievement. It shows great ambition at a time when few games aimed so big: dense storytelling taking place in expansive, realistic locations filled with a larger and larger array of tasks. All of it was so well-realised it feels fresh ten years after it was first released, and it’s able to stand in comparison with its eighth-gen successor.
âShadow & Boneâ is a testament to the meteoric rise of the fantasy genre
There was a time when offerings in the fantasy genre were few and far between. Nonetheless, we remained hooked to shows like âTrue Bloodâ, âThe Originalsâ, âAmerican Godsâ, âThe Magiciansâ, âThe Outsiderâ, âOutlanderâ and more as they arrived on the small screen.
David Benioff and D. B. Weissâs âGame of Thronesâ, based on the series of fantasy novels by George R. R. Martin, certainly propelled the genre by becoming a cult classic.
The award-winning medieval series - I will not revisit that anti-climatic ending that remains a sore point - left fans giddy with anticipation as to who will finally rule the seven kingdoms.
