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...

15.3.2022
Having played Grand Theft Auto Online for nearly a decade, I don’t think it will shock you to learn that I’ve recently felt…done with the game. While I’ve enjoyed some of the recent updates and events, my desire to sink hours of my life into GTA Online has mostly vanished. So I wasn’t sure what...

Game Pass started March off with a bang, adding a well-regarded blockbuster (Guardians of the Galaxy) less than six months after release, plus one of the best-written games ever (Kentucky Route Zero). The rest of the month, in comparison, lacks the big headline punch we’ve grown so used to, much...

I Accidentally Watched The New Batman Movie In The Worst Way Possible
14.3.2022
As an unapologetic batcat shipper and a sucker for movie trailers effectively utilizing Nirvana songs, seeing The Batman wasn’t a matter of “if” but “when.” However, I got more than I bargained for when I mistakenly bought tickets to see Matt Reeves’ new Bruceman film in an obscure format called...

Elden Ring Player Pretends To Be NPC And Successfully Tricks Invader
13.3.2022
Sometimes the best way to win a fight is to be the biggest, toughest badass in the room. However, there are other times when it pays to keep your head down and do nothing. One Elden Ring player did just that, pretending to be an NPC when their game was invaded by another player. And eventually...
Destiny 2's New Glaives Are Perfect And I Love Them
12.3.2022
I wasn’t sold on the idea of Bungie adding glaives to Destiny 2. Something about the initial pitch seemed out of place in a game like Destiny 2. But now, after playing many, many hours of Witch Queen, I’m happy to report that past Zack was an idiot. Glaives are awesome. Read more

Let's Talk About How The Witch Queen Just Turned Destiny 2's Universe Upside Down
12.3.2022
When Destiny first shipped it didn’t have much of a story to speak of. Years later, that’s definitely changed. There’s still plenty of ridiculous jargon, but also characters, conflicts and histories Bungie has spent nearly a decade diligently cultivating. With Destiny 2: The Witch Queen, it’s...
The Stranger of Paradise Demo Is Unapologetically Cringe, And I Love It
12.3.2022
Since its announcement during E3 2021, Team Ninja’s Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin has been a hotbed for shitposts and memes. These memes primarily involve out-of-context scenes of protagonist Jack Garland’s music tastes and his unbridled obsession with killing “Chaos”. Read more
Excuse Me While I Gush About Starscourge Radahn, Elden Ring’s Best Character
11.3.2022
I’m nearing 60 hours with Elden Ring and, frankly, I still have no idea what’s going on story-wise. Like previous Souls games, the lore FromSoftware crafted with Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin is a mess of proper nouns and vague insinuations. One thing I do know, however, is that a boss...

Elden Ring has been hacked. Maybe that comes as no surprise, considering Souls games often have copious issues with game-breaking exploits. But this is no ordinary hack. No, Elden Ring is just the latest FromSoft game to be targeted by a notorious Souls hacker with a particular penchant...

11.3.2022
Yesterday, Ubisoft released Dawn of Ragnarok, the latest and biggest DLC expansion for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. And as has become tradition, it includes a new, unrealistic animal mount for players to ride. This time, it’s a huge armored boar. But unlike before, on this occasion I broke. I gave...
Players Rage As $50 Chocobo Racing Game Tries To Nickel And Dime Them
11.3.2022

Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away Comes To Life With Puppets
11.3.2022
Originally released in 2001, Spirited Away is beloved by fans and critics alike. The award-winning film showed the depth and the brilliance of Hayao Miyazaki’s imagination. Creating a live-action stage show version was challenging, made even more so by a pandemic and a travel ban.Read more
Tips For Playing Battlefield 2042
11.3.2022
One of the strangest things about the launch of Battlefield 2042 is that, for all that it tried to do differently and in some cases even succeeded, it was rounded on and devoured by critics so wholly that if you’d never played the game you’d be forgiven for assuming that it didn’t even boot up.Read...
