the best part of any of the world cup for me were the moments where the corporate public facing sides of things collapsed under the weight of the awkwardness inherent to people talented enough to call themselves pros at video games and the moment when the crowd errupted at the elimination of a player previously temp…

This first 8 or so minutes of this clip from SypherPK explains how they were cheating and what resulted in their original 2 week ban, they then qualified again afterward but they either played legit or were better at hiding it next time.

i thought peely was hilarious as a goof in the battle pass the same way that some of the other sillier skins are but this and the other cringe worthy cosplay around the world cup makes me feel dumb for enjoying this game.

I always wonder about this with my kids since i play a lot of games. My girls are 8 and 11 now and I recently asked them what they think about female characters in games vs male characters in terms of how they saw them and how thought the female outfits compared to the males and if it looked like clothes a girl would…

Yeah but I’ve bumped into more than one gameplay related uses of it that made me realize what I was missing without it

that’s a bummer considering how nintendo tends to actually program their games with rumble in mind

rumble support? that ended up being one of the major reasons i went with a pro controller was the lack of rumble in every other controller that wasn’t a joy con or the pro controller

i scrolled down to the comments just to make sure this was here.  Good Job.

I like it because it’s doing the “live game” shtick extremely well where every few weeks, the map is changing, there’s more cosmetics to earn, or weapons are getting rebalanced, not to mention it’s doing this all as a free to play game.

i really don’t care about the event itself but i’m excited for it simply for the reason it signals the end of the season which gives them an excuse to really rearrange the map and shake up the meta for season 10.  I really hope they get rid of the slipstreams and sky platforms and other nonsense around the map that…

that’s fair, i feel like every game has one or two mechanics that get added to the game or are there from the start that some people begrudgingly use because the meta requires it of them. fortnite didn’t used to be that way but it definitely swung that way when they opened the flood gates with “turbo building” where…

old age the ultimate enemy

i didn’t used to like it especially before i learned how to use it as more than building simple cover. When i first started out i was playing Fortnite like it was PUBG but i quickly ran into players who were much quicker at building than i was and became frustrated but then i started checking out some pro players’ YT…

yep, when i heard there was gonna be a new top gun i thought to myself, cool,i liked creed and tom cruise must be stepping into the role of viper (tom skerritt) for some new pilot the way stallone did for michael b jordan in creed but this looks more like he’s gonna be the main character?

so they’ve said. I was one of the people who bought into it when i became enamored with fortnite and i thought the PvE mode was a complicated mess that wasn’t actually all that fun but they continue to support it and they’ve come a long way since then but last i checked in on it, it still didn’t have the suction of…

idk man, all the guns and structures i see in the game have flared ends and slightly askew angles which coupled with the rest of the color palette rings out more to the looney tunes and tom and jerry cartoons i watched growing up and i’m an adult who actively avoids violence IRL and doesn’t want to own a gun so saying…

battle royale (PvP) is already free to play which is the majority of what people care about but the PvE mode is supposed to be made free for all sometime this year. It will likely co-inside with a the launch of a new season in the battle royale. Season 10 is scheduled to start in about 2 weeks and the seasons run…

there’s plenty of nonsensical looking items in the game but i wouldn’t strictly call it a kids’ game just because of the art style. Most of the style is in subtle touches. I particularly like this reskinned grenade launcher they did around easter that changed the grenades into explosive easter eggs but for me the…

i always feel like these exploits that circumvent gameplay should be canaries in the coal mines of “why are players not wanting to do this thing that we’ve designed?” for game developers.
