Happy Friday gamers! It's been a hectic and exciting week in the world of gaming news thanks to the surprise announcement that Microsoft plans to acquire Activision Blizzard in a historic $69 million deal. Today's news isn't nearly as bombastic as that, but there's still some big stories here to round out the week. Today, […]

There’s never been a film series as consistent as Pokemon. There has been a Pokemon movie released every single summer, without fail, for the past 22 years. Until last year, the longest we’ve ever had to wait for a new movie was between Arceus and the Jewel of Life in November 2009 and Zoroark—Master of […]

The Citadel is a colossal space station home to 13 million people from all over the universe, like an intergalactic New York City. Commander Shepard visits the Citadel in every Mass Effect, and it's always my favourite location—especially the version we get to explore in the first game. It's a bustling hub of trade, diplomacy, […]

Razer, maker of gaming hardware with serious gamer names like the DeathAdder mouse, BlackWidow keyboard, and Gigantus mouse pad, launched a new and extremely cute line of Sanrio themed products Thursday. The Razer x Hello Kitty and Friends collection is now live (well some of it), and includes some nice-looking gear that will melt the […]

My sincerest condolences to fans of the spooky tree. Like the spirits of the children that died in the forest and became Phantumps, the Pokemon Unite developers have clearly lost their way. Trevenant has nothing to offer players that other Pokemon don’t already do much better, especially in the Defender role. There’s no reason to […]

Yet again, we’re reminded of just how fast modders can work. Believe or not, there’s already a bunch of mods available for God of War on PC, just a week after launch. In fact, one of the mods that we’re highlighting today was uploaded within 24 hours of the game going live. Of course, we […]

2021 was a banner year for Xbox Game Pass, and 2022 is already looking promising. With Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda early last year, the service added a host of beloved games like Skyrim and Fallout 3. And with Microsoft’s recent announcement that it’s acquiring Activision Blizzard, Game Pass’ reputation as the best deal in video […]

The first trailer for Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings show has been released, and while it’s basically just revealing the show’s title – The Rings Of Power, if you’ve been living under an elven cloak – there’s far more to it than meets the eye. I’m going to start with the more obvious things […]

Amazon’s Lord of the Rings series has a name and it’s a touch on the nose, if not overly redundant – The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.  The Lord of the Rings is already a great title. The Rings of Power isn’t bad, either, but putting the two side by side is an […]

There’s no promo this week in FIFA Ultimate Team. Nothing. In a game that relies on enticing you back with better rewards each week to keep you in its grindy gameplay loop, this is practically unprecedented. We’ve got a “Team of the Year Warmup” – as if that’s a meaningful collection of words and not […]
