Anyone Who Pirates The Sims 4 Is In For A Surprise
Folks who opted to download a torrent of The Sims 4 are finding something completely unexpected: censorship.

Sims 4 Fork Glitch Is Random As Hell
You gotta love Sims 4 glitches—they’re so absurd, it’s hard not to laugh at them. Take this new fork glitch, for example.

I Was Wrong About The Sims
Until this week, I’d never played The Sims. I knew it was a popular series. But for whatever reason, I’d just never played it.. …okay. Maybe not “for whatever reason.” There’s an actual reason, I’m just ashamed to admit it. I avoided The Sims purely because of the stigma I always associated with it. Growing…

The Guy Who Hunts The Rarest Pokémon of Them All
Not all Pokémon are created equal. Some legendary Pokémon, like Groudon and Kyogre, feature more prominently in the games’ stories. Other Pokémon, like Garchomp, have superior stats.

Oh Good, The Sims 4 Has Demon Babies
The Sims 4 might not have toddlers, but judging from the first crop of glitches people are finding, maybe that’s not such a bad thing.

The Strangest Thing That Didn’t Happen In Fallout: New Vegas
The Wild Wasteland perk lets you see some bonkers stuff in Fallout, but it never quite matches the absurdity of this New Vegas “easter egg.” I can’t really say much else about this video AxiomWrite without giving it away, but let’s just say that the seemingly random, esoteric instructions you’re supposed to follow for this…

Real UFC Would Be So Much Better With Glitches
It’s not just that UFC glitches are hilarious—it’s that the commentary would have to match the absurdity. I’d love to watch real UFC commentators trying to process actual UFC fighters glitching the hell out. Alas!

Ever think to yourself, man, Tidehunter is pretty much just a really buff Squirtle? No? That just me? Regardless, someone is working to mash together both Pokemon and Dota, and it’s an idea that might just be crazy enough to work. It’s called DotaMon, of course, and it’s a mod that’s being developed by Sma11P1ays…

Dota 2 Really Makes Me Want to Buy Stuff
I am 132 hours into Dota 2. During this time, I haven’t spent a single cent on the game, but damned if it’s not doing everything in its power to tempt me. I don’t know how much longer I can hold out. In fact, I think it’s probably inevitable that I will end up spending…
