Netflix's new series The Witcher , based on the popular video game series, indicates there's a strong market for live action series based on beloved games. While many studios have tried ( and largely failed ) with film adaptations, streaming television services tend to be a more forgiving medium. Budgets are typically smaller, and with that, productions are lower-risk than films, which seek recouped costs with large-scale theatrical releases.

Players who love crouch-based surprises in their FPS gameplay would immediately love Revenant on the get-go, with his silencing and extra life mechanics simply offering icing to the cake. Stealth lovers who feel inclined to play Revenant should consider the following things before choosing this charac

In this chapter, Ninja offers tips on pimping a stream to make it seem more professional. Recently, TheGamer invited me to do some product reviews. With a green screen backdrop, a nice LED light and more desktop space due to a wireless mouse option, I felt so good about my setup that I'm now convinced I'm the next Ninja (have you seen the header image on this stor

He impresses the importance of strategy and communication, including how to deal with teammates in high-pressure, heated moments.

Weeks later, I invested in a gaming PC and revisited the chapter in the process. His advice impacted how I think about accessories. For example, I learned all about mouse DPI (dots per inch, for those of you who were are clueless as I was) and the relative benefits of different mouse pad sizes (big movements require a big pad). I learned wireless accessories can cause latency issues. I studied the pros and cons of different monitor sizes. I currently have a 30" monitor, but he posited a strong argument as to why I might choose a slightly smaller one in the future (essentially, something too big makes it hard to follow everything that’s happening on the scre
