Pokémon Go today rolled out at least seven new baby Pokémon, which spawn from eggs. All day, players have been dutifully hatching the new little guys from two, five and ten-kilometer eggs. It’s tiers below players’ hopes for an entire second generation, but hey, at this point, they take what they can get. Here’s how…
Dungeons & Dragons has historically used attractive monsters, and especially of the female persuasion, to appeal to potential players. Busty demons and lithe wood maidens populated its source material, namely its Monster Manual, throughout the last 40 years. With recent editions and supplements, D&D has phased out its bare-breasted female monsters and included more sexy…
American Truck Simulator just got rescaled. The highways and landscapes of the trucking simulator are now boosted from a 1:35 to 1:20 scale, reflecting player demand for a larger game.
New Pokémon have finally come to Pokémon Go, Niantic announced today. Players can now hatch Pichu, Togepi and other previously unavailable Gen II Pokémon from eggs.

A popular Super Smash Bros. Melee controller’s potential ban from big-time esports tournament Genesis 4 has sparked a debate throughout the Smash community over what constitutes a tournament-legal controller for a 15-year-old game. The controller’s creator says its ban would be “devastating” for his business. Over a dozen years after Melee’s release, nearly everything about…
Accusations of bad labor practices are upending the NBA 2K17 YouTube community this week. After freelance video editor Anthony (aka “Prince Prodigy”) allegedthat popular 18-year-old gaming YouTuber LostNUnbound paid him a slim $15 per video edit, other LostNUnbound contributors have come forward alleging they worked for similarly low rates, without proper credit, or for free.…
Rejoice, nerds: The blood elf rogue you’re raiding with in World of Warcraft could, in fact, be famed MMA fighter and noted babe Ronda Rousey. On Conan last night, Rousey opened up about her WoW habit. It wasn’t a stretch from her 19-year-long Pokemon hobby, she said. At first, she started off as a night…
Pokémon Go’s much-requested “mass transfer” feature is dropping shortly. Players can now “transfer” Pokémon to Professor Willow in batches. So you won’t be sending your little pocket monsters to the meat grinder one by one anymore. Seriously, where did you think “Pokémon candy” even came from? To do this, press and hold a Pokémon. The…
Today, how you feel about panty shots can determine how you feel about anime as a whole. And it’s not just panty shots. In the blockbuster anime Food Wars, women’s clothes burst off their bodies when they taste an exquisite bite of steak. Skirts often don’t cover the bottom halves of women’s butts in Prison…
Upcoming action RPG Indivisible, from the creators of Skullgirls, announced today that anime studio Trigger (Little Witch Academia, Kill la Kill) will direct its opening animation. Last year, Indivisible received nearly $2 million on IndieGoGo.
Pokémon Go’s latest tracking update did not please everyone. Urban and rural players have access one of two Pokémon tracking features, but neither has both—what players say is the ideal solution. Fans have some theories why. Players near PokéStops can only trackPokémon around those PokéStops with the “Nearby” feature, which players far from PokéStops cannot…
Overwatch playerEvermore is a one-man apocalypse. It’s not an overstatement—he’s the top-ranked Overwatch player, and, somehow, he got there with Roadhog. Evermore’s sitting pretty with a capped 5,000 skill rating he reached just hours after Season 3 launched. Evermore is a Korean Overwatch pro named Koo Kyo Min of Team KongDoo Panthera and he’s over…
Last night at the Game Awards, Uncharted voice actor Nolan North made some vague and puzzling remarks referencing the recent voice actors’ strike during his acceptance speech for “Best Performance.” Throughout the web, his comments were interpreted as criticism of the strike. But was that really what he was trying to say? Perhaps North’s comments…
After months of testing, Pokémon Go’s new tracker is finally available. And calling its reception “controversial” would be an understatement—but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t work! Complaints are so ubiquitous that moderators on the mobile game’s subreddit are forced to delete them. Many think the new tracker, which launched yesterday, is confusing because the “Sightings”…
“Anime was a mistake” is a meme for a reason. But for some Dragon Ball fans, anime was the best thing that ever happened to them, and to their health. I was hauling ass on my gym’s recumbent bike the other day when some bald-headed human muscle sat down on the bike next to me.…
