Final Fantasy 16: The Best Ways To Farm AP And EXP Fast

One Year After Launch, You Should Really Check Out Honkai Star Rail
26.4.2024
As soon as Honkai Star Rail launched on April 26, 2023, I immediately downloaded it on my phone. The turn-based sci-fi RPG from HoYoverse, makers of gacha juggernaut Genshin Impact, was already an anticipated release after I had read impressions from the game’s beta. A year has passed since...
The Knuckles TV Show Has A Wild Reference To Sonic ‘06
26.4.2024
I didn’t love the Knuckles show, but as a long-time Sonic fan, one of its six episodes stuck out to me for a few reasons. One, it’s easily the most representative of the show’s problems with excluding its titular hero, but it also drops a huge lore bomb in the wildest way possible. It all ties into...
The Internet Reacts To The Knuckles Show
26.4.2024
The Knuckles show is out today on Paramount+. As Kotaku’s resident Sonic (eh, Shadow, really) sicko, I did not like it! I gave it a broadly negative review and was especially caught off guard by how little the titular punch-throwing echidna is actually in it. Now that the show is available...
