I didn't expect to still be writing about Cyberpunk 2077. Or at least, if you'd told me ahead of the game's launch that I'd be writing about it in January 2022, I would have expected it to be on the second or third DLC pack, after the base game and subsequent next gen versions broke […]

Recently, I wrote to Nintendo itself (or published an article on TheGamer, whatever, we all know Bowser has us bookmarked) imploring it to stop giving Gen 1 Pokemon regional variants.

As someone who takes a lot of screenshots of video games, and runs a YouTube channel that showcases beautiful environment design, Frans Bouma is a hero.

It’s our biggest look yet at a game that still remains shrouded in mystery, which is a big deal considering it is now only two weeks away from launch. However, now we have a relatively solid idea of how exploration, combat, questing, and other […]

In gruff moments of fatherly instruction, Kratos repeats the phrase “be better” to his son, Atreus. This happens in different contexts, but the lesson remains consistent: Your decisions are not bound by precedent, and the choices of others are not examples to follow – they only set standards you can strive to exceed.

The Legend of Vox Machina, the highly anticipated adult animated series, will premiere on Jan. 28. The Prime Video series is based on Critical Role, a troupe of voice actors who have been playing Dungeons & Dragons together since 2014.
