If you think of Apex Legends esports, you think of World’s Edge. TSM dropping Fragment East, SoloQgoats dropping Trials, Riddle dropping Lava City; you know the drill. World’s Edge is where the majority of Apex Legends esports has taken place since the game’s inception, and has been the only map in rotation (if you can […]
Eyes On Savathûn's Beautiful, Disgusting Throne World And Weapon Crafting In Destiny 2: The Witch Queen
The battle for the Light against Savathûn and her Lucent Brood is fast approaching in Destiny 2’s newest expansion, The Witch Queen, pitting Guardians against their Hive counterparts who share similar powers to our own. In a recent event, we watched some never-before-seen gameplay set on Savathûn’s Throne World, one of the main locations for The Witch […]
If You’re Gonna Be A Stealth Archer In Skyrim, You Might As Well Do It Right
It's a running joke in the Skyrim community that no matter how hard you try to create an interesting character build, you'll still always end up as a stealth archer. I'm guilty of this myself, purely because it's just so much damn fun. Not only is it a devastatingly effective and efficient way to clear […]
Blood Bowl 3 Second Beta Preview – Style Over Substance
Loading up Blood Bowl 3 for the first time is a spectacle. There’s a glorious opening animation that sets the stage perfectly for a game about orcs, death, and (occasionally) football. Punches are thrown in packed stadiums, balls are spectacularly caught as teams are spurred on by their fans’ raucous cheers, and of course someone […]
Jackass Forever Made Me Feel Cool About Getting Older
It's weird being in your 30s. As much as you're finally comfortable in your own skin and have most things figured out, you're also increasingly aware of the merciless march of time. It's a constant tug of war between enjoying life and feeling the years screaming past at an alarming rate. But when I saw […]
We Shouldn’t Be Celebrating Deepfake Luke Skywalker
If Obi-Wan Kenobi wasn’t reimagined, we would’ve never got Ewan McGregor. He’s made the character his own across the prequels, becoming a fan favourite as he’s set to headline his own Disney+ show, all things achieved away from the legacy of Alec Guinness. Despite this success, we still can’t move on from Mark Hamill as […]
The Shenmue Anime Is A Faithful Adaptation Of A Dreamcast Classic
Shenmue is a strange choice for an anime. Yu Suzuki's Dreamcast classic tells a great story, but at such an intentionally glacial pace, it doesn't seem like it would translate well to an episodic TV series. Most of the game is spent wandering the streets of Yokosuka asking people questions, with an occasional, usually brief, […]
The Biggest Gaming News For February 6, 2022
Today was all about the NFTs. Yes, those things again. While on the one hand we heard all about how Ubisoft chose to celebrate the hard work of its employees by handing out what are basically jpegs, we heard about how the people at Itch.io believe that NFTs are nothing but a scam. Good on […]
Legends: Arceus Is The Perfect Mix Of Pokemon And Monster Hunter Stories
Despite its flaws, Pokemon Legends: Arceus is a refreshing change of pace for the series. As much as I love Pokemon, I’ve found it difficult to stay enamoured with the last few titles and tire of them far sooner than I’d like to admit. Part of why I love the new recipe that Legends: Arceus […]
Dying Light 2 Fixes The Original’s Nighttime Problem
One of the biggest changes in Dying Light 2 is the way it handles the day/night cycle. Rather than driving you out of the darkness and into the closest safe house where you can sleep until morning, Dying Light 2 provides you with the means and incentives to stay out at night and continue exploring […]
