Weekly News Roundup – Week of August 2nd

  • 8 August 2021
  • Grunt 4500

Welcome back to a new instalment of the Weekly News Roundup, the best place for you to catch up on the news! This week had some pretty awesome pieces, including our first-ever Comic Book Film piece, a great VTuber Interview and even initial reactions on the Halo Infinite flight!

A Bloody Review!

I said not to expect Bad Dream: Coma to be a jump scare factory. That’s because its scares are as subtle as a scarecrow who moves closer to you every time you pass him. As a result, it never genuinely frightens, but its dark world delights with its style of black comedy.

Long Awaited Content

GRUNT 4500 was able to play the Halo Infinite Technical Preview on Xbox Series X and PC, putting 20+ hours into it. Take a look at his initial impressions of the gameplay, performance and more!

Informed Pixel featured its’ first-ever Comic Book Film article this week! The article focuses on the minor legal battle between star player Scarlett Johansson and the organisation producing these money-making machines, Disney. Learn more about the Black Widow controversy here!
