Street Fighter the movie will be back. As with every fighting games comics animations, there will be a movie and reboot movie many years later. A movie on such massive property should be dealt with in parts, if they are not doing it as a TV series. You will need screen time to introduce all the characters. In the movie not everyone gets a main appearance. Every characters from the Street Fighter 2 game should be the main characters as those are the ones that we all played and familiarized. Wrestlers and stars with muscular body are casted. You get the look and hopefully do it slow for the storyline.

Sad news that marks the end of an era, for wrestling. WWE icon and superstar Hulk Hogan passed away. Hulk Hogan, as most fans know him as, is a multi time world champion in different wrestling organizations.

As reported by multiple medias, he was ill for the period while some would have denied his condition. Regardless, he gave us the entertainment in the 80s to 90s in WWF with all the colorful characters. So which era of Hogan do you remember of him?

Ever wonder, when you make payment for an item, you will have ownership over them? In today's digital world, where most computer games are purchased, it seems you don't own them. When you have installed the game via online platforms such as Steam or from a physical DVD, running the game requires a internet connection to activate the game. Should the game server goes offline for business related reason, the game will be unplayable. As such, a petition for real ownership got started by Stop Killing Games.

Fast & Furious X2 will have character Brian O’Conner back in the show. But...... the actor for Brian is none other than Paul Walker, who passed away in 2013. In the last movie that Paul acted, which is Fast 7, certain scenes were being acted by Paul's brothers and body double, with Paul's head being CGI onto the actor's body. It is over 10 years now, doing CGI for a actor that passed should have improved now so it shouldn't be any issue. At least Vin Diesel think so. Vin Diesel announced the news that Paul's character Brian O’Conner will make an appearance, either as a main character or cameo in the latest Fast movie.

One of Singapore's iconic radio station Power98 FM is moving to digital only, which means you need to run an app with internet to listen. This will give Mediacorp radio one less competition with only SPH radio remains for FM listeners. There are still majority users prefer the FM radio because the FM radio is easily available, doesn't need internet to use. Digital streaming is good when there is no FM signal, you can listen easily with your internet connection. The seniors won't know how to operate the digital app. Power98 I have been listen to it from the early days when some of the notable DJs started from Safra Radio. I still prefer to use my SONY walkman. Until the day a digital device for listen to streaming is available, perhaps a change but for now I will listen to what's available.
