» Most of us still remember her from E.T. -- and that was 36 years ago, when she was seven and playing a girl who connects with the wrinkly extraterrestrial on a quest to go home. She also went on to play a sexy seducer in Poison Ivy (1992), one of Charlie's Angels (2000), a girl with a short-term memory in 50 First Dates (2004), and an accidental songwriter in Music and Lyrics ( 2007).

» Despite seeing dozens of titles released under the name since its initial debut in 2004, Capcom's Monster Hunter -- the Japanese studio's famed action-RPG franchise -- has never been a mainstream hit. With its admittedly repetitive gameplay loop, nail-biting difficulty and archaic controls, Monster Hunter is one of those games that you either love to death or avoid entirely, with no room in between.
Moto loses its mojo

» After last year's delightful Moto Z modular phone, one of the more interesting models in its price-range, it's a wonder why Motorola even bothered to release something like the Moto X4 this year. With middling specs across the board and no real notable feature to talk about, the Moto X4 is yet another mid-range Android phone, one among countless thousands already on the market today.

» Over the weekend, the lines of black-clad citizens stretched for several kilometres. On the one side, mourners queued up from the entrance of the Grand Palace, went round Sanam Luang and further down Ratchadamnoen Klang, past Democracy Monument with the line ending around Wat Ratchanadda near Pan Fah Bridge. On the other side, the queue went towards Ror Dor Junction. The waiting time was as long as 10 hours.

» Like all entertainment franchises that have ever been described as phenomenal, Death Note has had no shortage of adaptations. Born as a 12-volume Japanese manga series (2003-2006), Death Note has since been adapted into an anime series, five live-action Japanese films, a TV drama and a musical.
Not a bad Omen

» In a world where even laptop computers are coming out of the box with 4K capabilities, I found it a little discouraging that the HP Omen Desktop 880 couldn't support ultra-HD resolutions (we received the 021d model for review). Don't get me wrong: it's certainly as powerful as you'd expect from a dedicated gaming PC, capable of running even graphically-intense games like Total War or GTA V at maximum settings without so much as a stutter. It also comes in a sleek, sci-fi-esque chassis that is actually more practical than it looks, one that houses an impressive AMD Ryzen7 1800x processor and 16GB of RAM.
