Streets of Rogue Makes Fun Of Tutorials That Say You’re Amazing For Doing Basically Nothing

Fuck Video Game Tutorial Guy. Every time you so much as breathe without shoving a brick in your mouth, he acts like you’re a long-dead godking gracing mortals with your presence.

Ghost Recon Wildlands: The Kotaku Review

Ghost Recon Wildlands seems innocuous at first glance. It is a passable open world shooter where cooperative play leads to exciting gunfights and silly stunts.

I Swear, If It Rains In Zelda: Breath of the Wild One More God Damn Time

Breath of the Wild is an amazing game, but I do have some gripes with it. My biggest annoyance has to be the rain, an entity that has caused me more pain and suffering than Ganon’s evil forces. Estimating conservatively from my ~60 hours of playtime, I’d say it pours more often in Hyrule than…
