One Twitch Streamer Is Fighting Racism With A Chicken Emote

Good plans are born after hours, days, or even months of meticulous planning, but the best plans emerge from dumb jokes. One day, Twitch streamer Xmiramira was doing her thing when a rando came into chat spewing what she remembered as “racist crap.” “Oh,” Xmiramira said in reply, “a wild cock has appeared.” Now her…

Fallout 76 Bug Accidentally Deletes Entire 50GB Beta

The Fallout 76 beta starts on PC tonight, but an 11th hour bug in Bethesda’s launcher has had unusually severe repercussions for some affected users. Earlier this evening, Bethesda tweeted: Don’t click any buttons? Weird. Turns out the “issue” wasn’t your average freeze. It was a bug where clicking any button on the launch client…

Twitch’s New Karaoke Game Is Missing Some Of The Things I Love About Karaoke

I don’t just like karaoke; I love it. On average, I go out and sing at least twice a week, sometimes three times a week. Singing in bars in front of people helps me conquer my ever-present fear of doing literally anything in front of people. It’s a strange sort of therapy. Twitch and Harmonix’s…

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is a little over a month away, and many die hard fans are set on playing it with a GameCube controller.

What We Absolutely Loved About Castlevania Season Two

The first season of Netflix’s Castlevania animated series was pretty good, if a bit rushed due to a four-episode length. The second season expands with more episodes, more characters, and some amazing fight scenes.

Transistor Sings On The Switch

I loved Transistor when I first played it on PC, but I struggled with some aspects of the game. The combat system, while interesting and creative, was sometimes tedious to control. On the Switch, the game feels more cohesive. In Transistor, you play as Red, a singer who has lost her voice. Plus, her boyfriend…

Red Dead Redemption 2 Defiantly Bucks Open-World Trends

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Red Dead Redemption 2 are both big open-world games, and they both came out in October of 2018. Both involve a hero on a horse riding around and murdering lots of people. The similarities end there. AC Odyssey is very much of its time. It’s an embodiment of the open-world game…

You’re Just Not Scary Anymore, Cthulhu 

I wanted to be frightened of Cyanide Studio’s new Lovecraftian horror game, but the scariest thing about Call of Cthulhu is the sloppy stealth action segments that try to add tension to an otherwise casual adventure game. Back in 1981, when Chaosium first published the tabletop role-playing game on which Call of Cthulhu is based,…

A day before Halloween, Google has reworked its logo into an online multiplayer game called The Great Ghoul Duel to help people get into the spirit of things.

Battlefield 1 Headlines November’s Xbox Live Games With Gold

In November’s Games with Gold, I’m personally most excited about indie racer Race the Sun, but Battlefield 1 is good too I guess. If you’re out of things to do in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, you can go back to the start of the series with Assassin’s Creed As always, these games are only “free” if you have…

Symmetra’s Qualifying Matches Is A Delightful Overwatch Dating Sim

Overwatch dating simulator Symmetra’s Qualifying Matches is asking the important questions: “Will you date your teammates? Will you stay on the payload? Will you teleport everyone off the map and throw all your games?” Mostly, it’s focused on that first one. And the answer is resoundingly “yes.” Symmetra’s Qualifying Matches is a silly, riotously funny…
