If you want something done, you gotta do it yourself. Tired of waiting for Nintendo’s next full-blown Direct presentation, BeardBeardecided to make their own.

For a few years now, some very talented artists have been coming up with posters for some some of the most popular board games on the planet, all thanks to BoardGameGeek’s Artist Series.

PC marketplace Good Old Games announced a new refund policy today, and uh, it’s very kind. Maybe even too kind. Here’s the new policy, straight from GOG: “Starting now, you can get a full refund up to 30 days after purchasing a product, even if you downloaded, launched, and played it. That’s it.” That’s honestly…
Bernie Sanders isn’t running for president on the back of billionaires. He’s getting there via donations from supporters, and today, that’s a bunch of cosplayers. Earlier today, hyenasandgin started the Twitter hashtag #cosplayersforbernie. “My friends on the Ballin’ Out Super Podcast (number one leftist anime podcast) had recently raised $420 for Bernie and I was inspired…
Katsucon, held at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland, may not be as big as shows like Comic-Con, PAX or Anime Expo for the general attendee, but for cosplayers this is one of the absolute highlights of the year.

GameStop, once the center of the video game retail universe, is in serious trouble. As physical game sales decline (and with them, trade-ins, the company’s bread and butter), they’re desperate to find new ways to get people in the door and spend money. A little too desperate, maybe. While GameStop’s efforts over the last few…

This video by Red Dead Online Guides pulls the camera away from the player and just watches Red Dead Redemption 2’s animals go about their daily business, revealing tricks and habits you’d probably never pick up on if you were just pushing Arthur Morgan around all the time. Like, I had no idea that the…
Kurt “Kurt0411” Fenech, a FIFA Pro who is probably more notorious/famous for his YouTube presence, has been hit with one of the most severe online punishments I’ve ever seen, having been banned by EA from playing any of the company’s games online or even accessing any of their online services.

One of the key appeals of playing the Mass Effect series at its time of release was the way, like BioWare’s older games, your in-game decisions and actions would propel you towards the ends of a binary good/evil scale, potentially changing the game’s story. Turns out BioWare almost needn’t have bothered, since so few players…
Tonight, let’s take a look behind the scenes at some of the concept art that went into the creation of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, one of the most Star Warsy-lookin’ games of all time.

Dune is an experience so broken I don’t even know where to begin. Except to say it’s the best board game I’ve played in a long time. While coming out in time for a new movie later this year, this isn’t a new game. It’s actually a reprint of a classic, dating all the way…
In Democratic Socialism Simulator, the goal is simple: loads of cute American animals are going to either ask questions about, or give advice related to, government policy.
