Red Dead Redemption 2‘s Mundane Tasks Bring The Game To Life

Much of my Red Dead Redemption 2 play-through has been spent on gunfights and long-distance rides on a faithful steed. These moments are a mixture of explosive excitement and calm. But the game’s best interactions are small. They are the tiny pieces of busy work and rote chores that give the game a sort of…

It’s not Halloween, this is Corporate Cosplay, with 76ers guard Markelle Fultz getting paid by Microsoft and Bethesda to turn up to the game against the Pistons the other day looking like he’s about to line up for a midnight launch.

The ‘Free’ Gear in Black Ops 4 Is An Unforgiving Grind

You’re supposed to be able to earn flashy new gear via Black Ops 4’s Contraband Stream by either playing the game or spending money. But since arrival, it’s become clear that getting everything without opening your wallet is extremely difficult, and the whole thing feels like a scheme to get players to spend. Instead of…

An Excellent Way To Start Playing The Final Fantasy Trading Card Game

After two years of purchasing booster packs simply to admire the gorgeous artof Square Enix’s Final Fantasy Trading Card Game, I’m finally ready to play, thanks to the incredibly handy “Villains & Heroes” two-player starter set. While my main motivation for gathering Final Fantasy TCG cards is to sniff the ink and lovingly stroke the…

There Are Already Mods For Fallout 76 On PC, But They Might Not Last

While Fallout 76 isn’t officially out until next week, there’s already a small but growing modding community for the game congregating on Nexus Mods, a fan-run network of mods for PC games. The game is supposed to have full mod support sometime after it launches, but as usual, PC players aren’t waiting. Following the game’s…

If You’ve Played Undertale, You Must Play Deltarune

Last week, Undertale designer Toby Fox released a free new game called Deltarune, and you may be wondering if it’s worth your time. Well, yes. Yes it is.

Fan-Made PT Remake Captures The Original’s Terrifying Scares

P.T, the demo for Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro’s ill-fated Silent Hills, has gained a deep cult following since its release and eventual de-listing from the PlayStation store after Kojima split with Konami. A new PC remake captures most of the experience for those who don’t still have it on our PlayStations. The PC…

From Software’s VR Game Deraciné Is Short And Unsettling

Deraciné, the first PlayStation VR game from Dark Souls maker From Software, definitely isn’t for everyone. It’s a brief, slow-paced, story-heavy game set in a boarding school.

League Of Legends Made A K-Pop Video

And it’s…good? Just because they can, Riot Games has taken four of League of Legends’ champions and put them in a K-Pop band. Then got French studio Fortiche to make a very expensive music video for them. I think it’s an ad for new skins? Whatever it is, if every other major video game/series could…
