Star Wars Resistance Episode 7 “Signal from Sector Six” is a odd, aloof episode of Star Wars Resistance–a weird and tangential excursion into an unknown spaceship for what largely amounts to an excuse to introduce a new character. It’s also primarily meant to bring back Oscar Isaac’s Poe for an extended cameo, to solidify and justify its connection to the newest iteration of Star Wars, but that may have been the wrong move....

Is it possible to quantify cool? Rollerdrome, the latest from the skatemasters of Roll7, certainly thinks so.

This is a game where, locked into a series of retrofuture colosseums, you chain elaborate roller skate tricks while dodging rockets, ducking batons and pounding shotgun pellets into riot shields in ultra-slow motion....
