Platinum Games’ Bayonetta 3 received bad publicity ahead of its release, when Hellena Taylor, who voiced the game’s main character in the prequels, claimed that she was offered a paltry amount to return to the game. This soon led to a messy controversy and back and forth between Hellena and Platinum Games. Elsewhere, Konami finally confirmed the existence of a slew of new Silent Hill products. The internet remains cautiously optimistic, despite the announcements. This and more, including October’s new releases, with Jonathan Leo from Kakuchopurei.com.

Matchday 14 saw goals aplenty as Arsenal obliterated bottom-of-the-table Nottingham Forest, solidifying their top spot with a five-nil victory. On Tyneside, Newcastle compounded Aston Villa's new manager woes with a four goal rout, blemishing Unai Emery's first game back in the Premier League with a heavy defeat. Liverpool's stuttering league form were exploited yet again, allowing Leeds to steal a famous away win at Anfield, consequently lifting Jessie Marsch's team out of the relegation zone. Our pundits also discuss what went wrong with Graham Potter and his men, as the tactician's return to the Amex Stadium saw his Chelsea squad cast aside by a resurgent Brighton. All these and more, on Just For Kicks.

 Stroke is one of the leading causes of deaths in Malaysia, as well as disability among stroke survivors. Because of that, a stroke has consequences that can last months and years, not only for the individual but their caregivers as well. On this episode of NCD Chronicles, we hear from Noor Aza Abd Aziz, more fondly known as Mama Aza, about her journey to recover since her stroke in April 2017, as well as from Tracy Chan, Head of Rehab at the National Stroke Association of Malaysia, on how we can better support stroke survivors and their caregivers throughout rehabilitation. 

NCD Chronicles is a series about people living with NCDs, going beyond the diagnosis to explore their personal experiences, their challenges, as well as the impact of their health condition on their loved ones. These stories reveal the importance of understanding the unique struggles and needs of the individuals behind the disease, in our response to the NCD epidemic.
