They're all crap! Look no further than Nueplex. Cinema 2 over there has the biggest screen, Cinema 1 and 3 are really good as well, Cinema 4 is crappy, and I've never been inside their "Royal Cinema", but have heard good things about it.

Saw finding Dory at Cinestar V.I.P Cinema Xinhua Mall. The name says it all it was indeed a V.I.P Cinema every single thing in this cinema is V.I.P. The Interior, the Seats, A.C, Sound & Screen.

First things i noticed was The BIG SCREEN, bright & Crisp. i was not expecting a bigger screen cause usually shopping mall kind of cinemas dont have bigger screens like Cinepax Fortress Square and Super Cinema Vogue Tower M.M Alam Road. So i was impressed. (y)



Next thing was seating. All recliner seats and its was my first time sitting on a recliner seat. it was comfortable and it feels good.(y)



When i entered the hall some bollywood song was playing sound was awesome. But when movie starts, sound goes down and it was not as good as it was before.(n)

So when you are having all V.I.P kind of experiences the price will also got V.I.P :D..the ticket price is Rs. 800/- more than IMAX. I've seen all cinemas in Lahore (even the B class one) except The ARENA.

So, overall Cinestar V.I.P Cinema is SUPERB the only thing i didn't like is the ticket price ofcourse Rs.650 or Rs. 700 would,ve been enough.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
