  5. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a game developer retreat so quickly after announcing a very unpopular change to its very successful live-service multiplayer game.

  6. I’ve been told for years by friends and colleagues that Monster Hunter is probably not for me. The dense, systems-heavy RPGs grind against my sensibilities.

  9. With every passing level and zone in Path of Exile 2, you’ll find yourself following one of two paths: Either you’re gaining strength and clearing zones with ease, or you’re struggling to beat a boss and require the help of someone else in global chat. You want to be on the former path, leading you to unlock your… Read more... View the full article
  10. If you’ve been exploring the scenic and cozy Orilla Town in Mika and the Witch’s Mountain, you’ve probably come across a billboard with a piece of paper that says “5505" and asks you to feed five kitties.

  11. Following a report last week highlighting the slop currently infesting digital game storefronts, it seems Sony has started to remove some egregious shovelware featuring AI-generated art from its PlayStation Network Store. Read more... View the full article

Let’s break down this Vanguard hero’s… Read more... View the full article
  14. This year’s Super Bowl was a mostly boring game of football with a great Kendrick Lamar concert in the middle.

But sandwiched between the game’s four quarters was a spectacular performance by rapper Kendrick Lamar. Lamar’s performance transcended sports circles and was… Read more... View the full article
  17. Super Bowl airtime doesn’t come cheap. In fact, this year companies spent $8 million for 30 seconds of screen time at a Super Bowl most people will only remember for Kendrick Lamar’s unprecedented rap beef victory lap.
