In GTA Online, Today Is Basically ‘America, F*** Yeah’ Day

In many places in the United States today, the Independence Day holiday will be marked by solemn speeches and somber remembrances about what it means to be American. Not in Los Santos.

Bombing Bastards Is A Game You Can Buy On A Nintendo Console

There’s a new Bomberman clone on the Wii U’s eShop called Bombing Bastards. I’m still giggling that Nintendo, of all companies, is cool with a game being sold on its store with a name like that. There’s the eShop listing, just as proof. Note that last year, Stealth Bastard had to change its name to…
