Feature | As The Sims turns 25, I go through the history of Sims 2 fan media, music videos, and machinima with the community and creators th
Hi, everyone! I’m thrilled to share that I was interviewed about my Sims 2 machinima for a GamesRadar+ article that published this week. The article celebrates the Sims franchise’s 26th anniversary. The author Jasmine looks back at the YouTube and fan community that created Sims 2 music videos and machinima series. 
I had a fun walk down memory lane revisiting my old videos and discussing the videos that I have coming up this year. Please give it a read if you have a few minutes!

Exclusive: Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgard, and Murray Bartlett talk the jaw-ripping, face-burning violence in Michael Sarnoski's Death of Robin
On the cutthroat world of The Death of Robin Hood
“[Sarnoski's] depicting this past that was horrible," Bill Skarsgard agrees. “Thirteenth-century England was probably not the coolest time to be around. And how little value life had... The scene that we have where it's like I just clobber a guy for a loaf of bread – and [my character is] super stoked about it. This is what establishes this universe. And then it's kind of Robin's path to salvation from that.”
But it's Little John's reckless and violent life that leads to his home being overtaken by a rival family... and it's here where the gore truly amps up (and we see jaws ripping in half, torches being shoved down throats, and arrows going through eye sockets).
Jonathan Bailey and Jeff Goldblum's interview about Jurassic World Rebirth (2024)
Jeff Goldblum and Jonathan Bailey might be starring in Wicked together, but they have another franchise in common, too: Jurassic Park.
Bailey is starring opposite Scarlett Johansson in the upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth, while Goldblum played chaos theorist Ian Malcolm in multiple Jurassic Park movies (most recently in Jurassic World Dominion).
So, when GamesRadar+ sat down with Goldblum and Bailey to talk all about Wicked, we also had to ask if Goldblum had any advice for his co-star about joining the Jurassic Park franchise. Their answer follows below, edited for length and clarity.
Jeff Goldblum: No tips whatsoever. You are on your capable own. Your broad shoulders can handle any dinosaur.
Jonathan Bailey: We stand on the shoulders of Jeff, Laura [Dern], Sam [Neill], Chris Pratt.
JG: Be careful, these little bony shoulders are frail little things. No, you're just on your own two glorious feet. And what a park that's going to be. What a world.
JB: You know Scarlett really well, don't you?
JG: I love that Scarlett Johansson! How much did you do with – I know nothing about it, what did you do?
JB: Yeah I did a lot, with Scarlett mostly. She's special, and she's gonna do amazing.
JG: I want to see the two of you together. Did you sing at all? Because she sings up a storm.
JB: She does, she's got an amazing voice.
JG:: I know!
JB: Yeah, and we will find out about that next year, maybe.
JG: It's a secret but I can't tell you what. Were you singing on the set? I wish you had a musical number in Jurassic Park.
JB: Yeah we did, actually. She's got an innate ability to turn anything into a song. Similar to you, actually. But, yeah, the locations, the dinosaurs, the cultural experiences of travelling all around the world, she made into song.
We have to agree with Goldblum and say we want a Jurassic Park musical, too, but sadly we think Bailey is just joking around about that particular aspect of the movie. Still, never say never...
In the meantime, you can see both Goldblum and Bailey singing and dancing up a storm in Wicked this November 22. Bailey plays the charming Prince Fiyero, while Goldblum is the smooth-talking Wizard of Oz himself.

I searched high and low but never found where these ads originated precisely. I know they were featured in Game Informer because it's the only gaming magazines I received back in 2011.
*My scans 🩷
I attempted to reach out both to Deep Silvers parent company Plaion and Games Radar but never received a reply. So I decided to restore the two posters with creasing and discoloration as much as possible to make them look as they originally did. I think I did a pretty good job.
Please give me thanks and kudos, I deserve it 🩷 And please ensure I'm credited if you post or save. I worked hard on this 🩷 And I really just wanted these ads to be preserved so yeah 😊
Loki keeps saying, 'We need to find Sylvie, we need to find Sylvie. We need to find out what's going on'. What he's not saying is, 'I want to find Sylvie because I wanted to pursue what happened at the end of the last season,' [laughs]. He's coming in ready to go.
Dan Deleeuw - 'Loki team teases the God of Mischief's "awkward teenager" romance with Sylvie in season 2' (Games Radar)
Director Wes Ball and Noa's actor Owen Teague have given interviews examining the power-hungry adversary of Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes, Proximus Caesar, played by Kevin Durand.
Ball elaborated with Games Radar on the ape king's search for human artifacts and knowledge. "Proximus is a fantastically cool character. He is a fan of humans. You see it in the trailer. He says how they were capable of great things. 'They could level mountains. They could speak across oceans. They could fly like eagles fly.' He's fascinated by what humans were and how they fell so far, so he studies them. He knows more about humans than any other ape in our story."
Teague concurred in his own interview about Proximus' fascination with humans, "To apes that forgot about all these [human] things, that's like a magic power." He went on to say about the rise of power for the character set up to be his antagonist, "You get to see how legends and religion, to some degree, play a part in the creation of powerful figures. It's a really smart story to be telling right now, especially, I think."
It will be interesting to see Noa and Proximus Caesar meeting in the movie. With the trailer showing a deep conversation of Proximus trying to convince Noa that all apes will benefit from what he learns, followed by the apes throwing fists in the chimp way, their rivalry will be fun to see on the big screen.

IGN - 9/10
"Final Fantasy VII Rebirth impressively builds off of what Remake set in motion, both as a best-in-class action-RPG full of exciting challenges and an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long."

Twinfinite - 5/5
"Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is, for all intents and purposes, a phenomenal second act in the Remake series. Though it’s open world design isn’t perfect, the game is finely honed in every other area and provides as luxurious of an experience as FF VII Remake did."

Destructoid - 9.5/10
"Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth somehow manages to spin multiple plates without smashing any of them. It’s over-the-top serious when it wants to be, and it’s utterly absurd in the next moment. Great Final Fantasy games have always managed to walk this line, and it’s a testament to how the brand has stayed relevant for decades on end."

GodIsAGeek - 10/10
"Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth is a phenomenally good video game. It has a habit for self-indulgence, but earns every pause with some shocking story moments, and some of the best combat I’ve experienced."

GamesRadar - 4.5/5
"Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth delivers all the charm of Remake while making the needed improvements to side-content to ensure the original's step-out moment is worth taking once more."
Read the full review here.
Dexerto - 5/5
"Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is ultimately worth the four-year-long wait, leaving you wanting for the next installment. This is Game of the Year material and an exceptional follow-up to a revered first entry. It handles the beloved material with care while still establishing its own new voice, making for a stellar sequel."
Read the full review here.
VGC - 5/5
"Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is an excellent RPG with some of the best characters in the gaming canon. While some open-world content skirts the edges, and the game's main narrative is left somewhat deflated, the time spent with Aerith, Tifa, and the gang makes this a hugely enjoyable road trip you'll be playing for hundreds of hours."
