More than anything, what makes this exciting for me is the fact that this bodes very well for how Horizon: Zero Dawn will eventually play on PC since both of these games run on the Decima Engine.

Sorry if that was the case! I don’t really know much about Sev since I haven’t really paid that much attention to the Skullgirls tournament scene, so I didn’t really have anything to say regarding her or her transition. Kudos to the Skullgirls staff for showing her support, though! Apologies again if it came off the…

Well deserved on SonicFox’s part! They’re probably one of the best things to ever come out of the FGC and I’m just happy anytime I see a headline with their name on it. I love that they try to give the time of day to a lot of different fighting games and don’t just stick with the ones that they know really well but,…

As someone who hates artificial lighting and loves natural light - but also someone who likes playing games in as dark an environment as possible - I have blackout curtains on every single one of my windows. It helps tremendously when I’m gaming or watching something on the flatscreen.

In the case of the more recent entries in the series (which I do believe have lost their way in a sense), you are absolutely correct. Modern Warfare (2019) purports to be a gritty, realistic game about the horrors of war but it’s also a game that shoves lovingly recreated digital analogues of real-life guns in your…

Yes and that’s the really unfortunate part, isn’t it? Which is kind of sad considering that the most iconic part of Call of Duty 4, the nuke sequence, was such a refutation of that “go to foreign countries and shoot brown people” mentality, taking away the player’s agency and forcing them to watch their American hero…

Not to disagree with you totally, but Call of Duty (despite appearances) has generally been an anti-war series. Call of Duty 4, in particular, has the very explicit message that the arrogance of American interventionism is a horrible thing that will get very many people killed. Meanwhile, the various other governments…

Riley, buddy, it’s rough going. NYC living is tough enough but now you have to pay all this money and don’t even get the implied benefits like, you know, walking around in your neighborhood or hanging out in parks. I’m deathly afraid of stepping outside and I know I can’t risk anything close to social interaction…

If you’ll indulge me, please allow me to talk about a twelve year old video game that gave me more good memories than maybe any other. Halo 3 is not a perfect game. There’s a lot that can be said about it, surely, about whether or not its campaign is any good, whether the multiplayer was balanced, whether it still…

Oh, nothing, just the best first-person shooter this side of TITANFALL 2!

This is genuinely hilarious. I love how unironic and heartfelt his message is and how self-aware he’s being about the whole thing. This dude’s won me over for sure.

I would also like to implore everyone to check out the short but free game Emily is Away, which has a very similar premise to Secret Little Heaven. Maybe a mite less ambitious in its goals and interface but, like I said, free game. It’s definitely worth checking out. It really nails that early-2000's AIM feel. Makes…

People put down Call of Duty too much. There are really only two CoD games which subscribe to the stereotypes of what people assume CoD games are like (those two, by the by, are Modern Warfare 3 and Ghosts, both of which are probably the least creative of the series by a country mile) and even Infinity Ward managed…

Wow.

I have been very vocable about my love of dumb peripherals in the past, and I LOVE THIS DUMB PERIPHERAL!

Style Savvy is just so delightful and jolly and the most underrated series on the 3DS. It’s the sort of game - not unlike Pokemon - where it makes you want to live in the world that it presents to the player. God bless you and Fahey, Gita. You’re the only ones who are spreading the Gospel of Style Savvy - and…

Hmm. That makes me wonder. I’ve always wanted a game based on The Nightmare Before Christmas that wasn’t, you know, Kingdom Hearts. Seriously, like a really good one. Wouldn’t it be great if there was some kind of, I don’t know, Devil May Cry-style hack-and-slash that was developed in-house by Capcom that featured…

The worst part about EA’s handling of Star Wars is that I can’t feel any enthusiasm from them. Every other form of media that Star Wars has invaded since the Disney acquisition have been firing on all cylinders. Books, comics, TV shows, and the movies, of course - and everyone involved in those projects just seem so…

This is my personal favorite of all of the post-Adventure Time series (outside of my very irrational love for a certain cartoon about pastel-colored horses). Star is a show that is unapologetic in its dedication fun and silliness, but also recognizes that drama and real emotion are what allows those aspects of the…

It might seem ridiculous but Style Savvy is freaking awesome, guys! Play them! It’s a blessing to humanity that this series is still coming out with new releases!
