The Borderlands universe is no stranger to absurdity, but one of the most beloved characters is ready to take things to the next level. Following the success of Borderlands 3 in 2019, Tiny Tina is taking the world of Borderlands into the fantasy realm in Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, an all-new, full standalone game from Gearbox gives players […]
How I Found Comfort In Dead By Daylight’s Pride Celebration
My earliest memories of online gaming conditioned me to expect the worst. As a queer woman with beginnings in Counter-Strike and Halo 3, I’m no stranger to an earful of slurs and post-game lobbies littered with hate speech. I can usually get it together, hit the block button, and move on, but on my bad […]
I Love Mass Effect’s Sci-Fi Jargon
I’m a real sucker for sci-fi, but something that absolutely makes or breaks it is worldbuilding. As well as being new to the Yakuza series, the recently released Legendary Edition is my first foray into the world of Mass Effect – I’m sorry. Fortunately, coming to the series later than everyone else has allowed me to view […]
I Really Hope Horizon Forbidden West Doesn’t Ignore The Series’ Most Fascinating Lore
Horizon Zero Dawn is an excellent game for the most part, although as I’ve written before, its one major flaw is how lifeless its cities are. When you’re out in the wilderness and overcome by the sheer scale and sublimity of nature, Zero Dawn is outstanding. The second you step foot in Meridian or Sunfall, […]

Now, we’ve got a few more details about what Fort Condor will have to offer players, including a few new screenshots. Fort Condor is a strategic minigame that […]
I Don’t Know What’s Going On With Final Fantasy 14, And At This Stage I’m Too Scared To Ask
This past weekend saw Final Fantasy 14 introduce male Viera, which immediately had me thinking of crunching tackles, Vaporub, and fights with Roy Keane. Apparently though, these Viera are nothing to do with the legendary Arsenal captain Patrick, who actually spells his name Vieira. Instead, Viera are bunny boys, which sound less like a holding […]
I Can’t Wait To Have Another Drink With Mass Effect’s Dr Chakwas
There are lots of moments I’m looking forward to revisiting in the upcoming Mass Effect remaster. The suicide mission, the Citadel DLC, Tali’s loyalty mission, Virmire… pretty much every moment, to be honest. I’ve replayed the trilogy multiple times, but not for years, so I’m sure there’s a lot of stuff I will have forgotten. […]
I Can Already Guarantee That Ratchet & Clank Will Have The Best Photo Mode
Ever since we received a brief snippet of the feature at last week’s State of Play, I’ve been thinking a lot about the photo mode in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and how it could end up being the best one in gaming. Obviously, as someone who loves photo mode, can’t wait for Ratchet & […]
