This Game Could Genuinely Turn An Arachnophobe Into A Spider-Lover
10.9.2021
I do not like spiders. I wish I did, because spiders are objectively excellent. They have eight eyes, for goodness sakes. Let alone that they can make webs come out their bums. (Sub, please check.) They are essential for insect control (without them there would be famine), their venom may be useful...

Pokémon Oreos Would Be Cooler If Nabisco Workers Weren’t Striking
8.9.2021
This morning, Oreo announced a new variation of its popular sandwich cookies decorated with Pokémon characters. But while I love me some cross-brand synergy, I’m also a little wary of scarfing down on a crunchy, chocolate recreation of Pikachu’s face when striking Nabisco workers have asked...
Hundreds Of People Line Up For Pokémon Cards In Tokyo

This weekend in Tokyo’s Akihabara, over five hundred people lined up for Pokémon cards. In past years there have been multiple examples of Pocket Monsters drawing long lines, especially in Japan. This would normally be a regular occurrence. In 2021, it’s anything but, with the nation’s Covid-19...
I Still Can't Listen To Genshin Impact's Inaccurate English Voice Acting
7.9.2021
Whenever I download Genshin Impact onto a new device, the first thing I do immediately is download the Chinese voice pack. I’m not a snob about dubs versus subs. The problem is that the English voice over turns my favorite characters into unrelatable strangers that I barely recognize. Read more
Cloud Gardens Is A Relaxing Game About The End Of Our World
7.9.2021
Cloud Gardens, which left early access last week, is one of those games that is both incredibly difficult and incredibly easy to pitch. The idea is simple—you plant seeds and then place objects which make those seeds grow. Sometimes the object is a beer bottle or a radiator or an apartment or...
New Glitch Could 'Break' BOTW Wide Open, Speedrunners Say
7.9.2021
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the gift that keeps on giving. Though Nintendo’s open-world extravaganza is well over four years old by now, players are still finding new ways to break the game at the altar of entertainment. Case in point: Just this weekend, BotW speedrunner...

Zangief Is Now 65 Years Old
6.9.2021
You, me, everyone, we’re all getting older by the day. And so are the cast of Street Fighter II, who we’d like to imagine are still battling away in their early 90s prime, but who are in reality old enough now to be most people’s grandparents.Read more
The DK Rap Was Unfairly Mean To Lanky Kong
4.9.2021
Donkey Kong 64 is a classic and beloved platformer that features a weird rap song and way too many collectibles. While these days, all those pesky collectibles aren’t fondly remembered, the odd rap song found at the start of DK64 is a fan favorite. Sure it’s terrible, but in a loveable sort of way....
Genshin Impact Gives Aloy The World She Deserves
3.9.2021
Aloy deserves to be in the Genshin Impact collaboration and the world it exists in. I’m not just saying that because she’s a great character. I enjoy seeing her thrive in Teyvat, which is kinder to her than her own Earth ever was.Read more
