This weekend, many of us will meet the already iconic Lady Dimitrescu for the first time. Or, as many of us know her, the Big Vampire Lady. I haven’t played Resident Evil Village yet, so I’ve no idea how much of the game she’s in, whether she’ll live up to the hype, or whether she’s […]
6 Things We Learned About Neo: The World Ends With You
Fans of The World Ends With You have waited 14 years for a sequel, and their patience will finally be rewarded this June with the launch of Neo: The World Ends With You. The game takes place three years after the events of the original cult classic and introduces a new protagonist in Rindo, a […]
A Very Sweary Essay About George R.R. Martin Is Nominated For A Hugo Award
An essay titled “George R.R. Martin Can Fuck Off Into the Sun” has been nominated for a Hugo Award—and unlike most rageblogs about him, it isn’t actually about how he’s taking his sweet time with A Song of Ice and Fire, or the backlash to the Game of Thrones finale. Incidentally, the blog post in […]

Pikmin Is Cool, But How About A Zelda AR Game?
Look, I get it. Pikmin is a beloved series based on parading legions of sentient plants around, which is a premise that can be translated to augmented reality pretty well. I mean, Olimar is in Super Smash Bros. and everything now, and his Smash kit alone is proof there’s a certain energy to Pikmin that […]
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time Cracked One Day After Release Despite Always-Online DRM
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time released on PC via Blizzard.net last Friday, and fans of the series were surprised to find out that this largely single-player adventure-platformer came with a bizarre digital lockout that required the player to always be online. If you couldn’t log into Blizzard’s auth servers, Blizzard.net simply wouldn’t let you […]
The Best Thing About Monster Hunter Rise Is How Much It Respects Its Weapons
Like many of you, I started playing Monster Hunter Rise over the weekend, and like a smaller (but still substantial) subsection of you, it was my first real foray into Monster Hunter. I had dabbled in World, but after its brilliant character creator, it just never really clicked with me and I dwindled the hours […]
The Best Thing About Red Dead Online Is The Fashion
I’ve played through Red Dead Redemption 2 three times now, and Arthur Morgan might just be my favourite new character of the last decade. There’s so much to love about him, whether that’s the way he roots for the outsiders, his complex sensitivity, or Roger Clark’s sublime performance. I love it all. I even – […]
The internet is sad about Animal Crossing’s sold-out Sanrio cards
If you logged in this morning thinking you were going to successfully order Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ Sanrio amiibo cards, bless your optimistic lil’ heart. My sweet summer child, these cardboard rectangles sold out seemingly within seconds after Target set them live. The stark situation has left many a Hello Kitty aficionado upset (or at […]
The Best Thing About Horizon Zero Dawn Is The Damage Feedback
Forgive my language, but killing shit in Horizon Zero Dawn feels amazing. I recently picked HZD back up in anticipation for the sequel, and the second time around I can’t help but stand in awe of how incredible it feels to fight robot monsters with a bow and arrow. I thought I’d cruise right through […]
