Arc Raiders Dev’s Last Game Shutting Down On One Platform

Okay, so The Finals is dropping support for PS4 when Season 10 hits on March 18, 2026. Basically, the developers at Embark want to focus all their energy on the newer consoles and PC, which makes sense.

5 Underrated Crime Dramas To Binge On Netflix

Netflix has a fantastic selection of crime dramas, including popular hits like Ozark and Mindhunter. But beyond those well-known shows, there are also some hidden gems – series that didn’t get much attention at first, but are absolutely worth watching.

Wicked: For Good Is Actually Better Than the First

Ariana Grande delivers a surprisingly powerful performance, with much of the emotional weight of the film conveyed through her expressions. As one of the most famous women in the world, she captivates audiences as she portrays her character’s hidden pain. While she previously shone as a bright contrast to Cynthia Erivo’s darker role in Wicked Part One, Grande now brings depth to Glinda, transforming her seemingly perfect poise and graceful movements into outward signs of inner conflict. Glinda, once a cheerful princess, is now caught in a web of manipulation by the power-hungry Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) and Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh), forced to become a symbol of Oz’s descent into tyranny. The film reveals Glinda’s past, showing her as a young girl driven by a desire for approval, and explores the difficult realization that pleasing everyone isn’t always possible. This journey makes Glinda a much more complex and often heartbreaking character in Wicked: For Good, offering a surprisingly relatable look at how life can push us all towards difficult choices.
