Thought that trailer from last year was a joke? Not at all. Aaron Greenberg, General Manager of Xbox Games Marketing, re-confirmed that the Xbox Series X fridge is a thing, as the Xbox twitter account wins the Twitter Marketing poll for best tweet.

More Images Confirm That The Wild Hunt Will Appear In Netflix’s The Witcher Season 2
In case that one image wasn’t enough to convince you, more set images from Netflix’s The Witcher have emerged, this time putting to rest any doubt about The Wild Hunt’s appearance on the show. Only two days ago, we wrote about an image taken from the Witcher set in North Devon which suggested that the […]
New Pokemon Snap Is Proof That Gen 9 Is Going To Be Huge
I’ve said this a thousand times before, but any non-mainline Pokemon game is an experiment. It’s an experiment in form, in presentation, and usually in fundamental structure, and it’s designed to inform whatever generation is due to launch after it. The most recent example of this was the way in which Let’s Go Eevee & […]
James Gunn Confirms That Sylvester Stallone Is Voicing King Shark In The Suicide Squad
Famed Rocky and Rambo actor Sylvester Stallone has been confirmed by The Suicide Squad director James Gunn himself to be playing King Shark.

It’s A Joke That Persona 5 Still Isn’t On PC Or Switch
I played through Persona 5 Strikers on PS4, but it’s also available on both PC and Nintendo Switch. This, reader, is completely stupid.

I Hate That I Know So Much About Pokemon These Days
Pokemon turned 25 last month, and I’ve been playing it for almost that entire time. My first Pokemon game was Pokemon Blue, and it was both the first game I ever finished, and the first game I ever cheated in. Since then, I’ve played the main series games, the spin off games, even the monopoly […]
It’s Time To Admit That Princess Daisy Is A Much Better Princess Than Peach
The Super Mario franchise recently crossed over with Animal Crossing, and in doing so highlighted the innate hierarchy of Super Mario. At the top, you obviously have Mario, followed closely by Luigi, Peach, and Bowser. These three vie for the coveted silver medal, and there are various games across the franchise in which each of […]

Five Star Wars Stories That Would Make Great Games
Now that Lucasfilm is allowing more publishers and developers to take a crack at making Star Wars games, I’d love to see a handful of Star Wars “classics” get reborn as interactive experiences. I put “classics” in air quotes because Star Wars’ history is so complicated and messy that some its greatest stories no longer […]
