31.7.2025
My first introduction to Battlefield 6 came via a trailer in a large warehouse in Los Angeles. The video featured Limp Bizkit singing about a chainsaw. It was loud, bombastic, and frankly a bit embarrassing. But then I sat down and got to play over four hours of EA’s upcoming military FPS,...

Call Of Duty Finally Admits What We've Been Saying All Along: The Install Size Is Too Damn High
29.7.2025
In theory, an all-in-one launcher to manage a massive franchise like Call of Duty probably makes sense. When you have multiple campaigns, multiplayer modes, and regular updates to live-service games like Warzone to manage, sure, you could convince me that a one-stop shop where I can find...

29.7.2025
During the marketing for the Switch 2, one of the most talked about aspects (perhaps because there was so little else to talk about) was the potential that the new Joy-Con 2s could be used as mice. Post-launch, there’s been almost no reason to bother. It hasn’t featured as a necessary control...

Donkey Kong Bananza's Ending Is Phenomenal
