5 Hours In, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Is Not The RPG I Was Hoping For

I’ve played Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot for five hours so far, and it appears to be part fighting game and part fetch-quest generator.

The Next Smash Bros. Character Is Fire Emblem‘s Byleth

During a special presentation this morning, Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai said that he had been working on the fifth downloadable character for Super Smash Bros.

NBA 2K20 Is Laughing All The Way To The Bank

The bedrock of my coverage of the NBA 2K series over the last few years has been how gross the series has become, how it’s so bent toward the whims of advertisers and microtransactions that it’s uncomfortable to even be around, more predatory experience than basketball game.
