Here we go. Top 10 Games of 2015. No punches will be pulled. These rankings are based purely on REVIEW NUMBERS and SALES FIGURES. I will not be injecting any personal preferences in the rankings, no matter how much I believe one game should be ranked higher than another. This is in no way a […]
2015 was a great year to be Franchise Fred. There were an unprecedented amount of franchise installments. In one sense, it was simply a practical matter. There are now more franchises to service that have been created in the past 50 years of cinema. However, it does also speak to the interest in continuing stories. […]
You remember that $150 elite controller Microsoft showed off during E3? Well it turns out that the elite controller is WAY more popular than anyone would have imagined.

As Franchise Fred, you know I don’t like prequels. I want to know what happens next in a story, not what already happened. Minions is a rare exception to my prequel prejudice. I don’t like the Despicable Me movies, so I don’t care about their sequel. Minions is way better than any Despicable Me, inversely […]
