Elden Ring Players Love (And Hate) That Moonveil Katana
26.3.2022
Whether you like it or not, samurai are dominating Elden Ring.

Elden Ring Invader Stumbles Into Creepy AF Nope-Fest
24.3.2022
Elden Ring can be pretty horrifying. Sometimes it’s the monsters, eldritch horrors with way too many appendages and exposed arteries.

The Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Film Is A Fresh Take On The Manga
24.3.2022
I was originally on the fence about watching Jujutsu Kaisen 0, the new anime film based on the manga of the same name, a prequel to the wildly popular Jujutsu Kaisen manga series. I’ve read Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and am entirely caught up on Jujutsu Kaisen so I didn’t think the film would have much...

Elden Ring Fan Beats Multiple Bosses While Curled In A Fetal Position
21.3.2022
Elden Ring’s bosses are hard enough for me no matter how prepared I am to fight them, so it’s extraordinary (and hilariously frustrating) watching someone beat them without doing a damn thing. Case in point: YouTuber InfernoPlus, who’s back with a new video of cheesing bosses by siccing a powerful...

The Mario Bros Have Earned A Beach Holiday
17.3.2022
I know Mario games have involved the beach before, but those times—Mario Sunshine especially—were about work, or quests, and quests are work.

Horizon Forbidden West Dev Dishes On The Game’s Biggest Twist
15.3.2022
Partway through Horizon Forbidden West, you encounter a monster. It’s not an animal-shaped robot, like the bulk of enemies you fight. It’s a bona fide creature of the shadows, and a rare moment of terror in a series that largely avoids jump scares and nightmare fuel. According to the game’s...
