Game Review: 'Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong'

Game Review: ‘Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong’

If you take Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles, The Lost Boys, and Dungeons and Dragons and put them in a blender with a couple of drops of hot sauce, you will get the tabletop/pen and paper RPG Vampire: The Masquerade. The game and its story take place in a “Goth-Punk” world and was released in 1991 and became the best-selling tabletop RPG second to D&D. Over time the game has spawned multiple sequels over the years before becoming a video game. The focus today is the latest in the series of games, Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong. A big thank you to Big Bad Wolf and Nacon for the reviewing opportunity. Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong takes place in Boston where all the vampires living in the city receive a “Code Red” alert, meaning that their existence was discovered and they’re under attack.

Season 4 Of "What We Do In The Shadows" Sinks Its Teeth Into A Summer Premiere Date

Season 4 Of “What We Do In The Shadows” Sinks Its Teeth Into A Summer Premiere Date

Today, FX announced the July premiere date for the fourth season of vampire comedy “What We Do in the Shadows,” which was renewed just ahead of the season 3 finale. The vampire-comedy series follows the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of three vampires, who’ve lived together for over 100 years, on Staten Island and they’re familiar, Guillermo who has discovered that he is related to the legendary vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing and it turns out, Guillermo is really good at vampire killing. Season three ended strangely with the clan ready to leave Staten Island and go their separate ways, except for Colin who is now a baby again? Sadly, co-creator Jemaine Clement is no longer involved in writing “What We Do In the Shadows.” He left to write, direct, and star in other projects, including the upcoming spin-off of the original What We Do in the Shadows, We’re Wolves. He will also be starring in the upcoming Avatar franchise
