Black Ops 4 Is Having The Smoothest Call Of Duty Launch In A While

Black Ops 4 launched worldwide today, and it has been the smoothest Call of Duty release in years, assuming you’re playing on console. Starting at midnight, players have been partying up and jumping right into battle on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. If you’re gearing up to play on PC, you might experience some login…

These $1,350 Game Boy-Themed Jordans Almost Look Worth It

Johnny Barry’s Freaker Sneaks is a company that produces super-small runs of custom sneakers. Its take on the retro Air Jordans IV are especially sleek, including 2017’s extremely limited SNES and NES-themed ones. Now there’s a Game Boy pair, and holy shit do they look hot. They’re $1,350 a pop though, and like most of…

Star Wars: KOTOR Fan Remake Shutting Down After Cease And Desist From Lucasfilm

Back in 2016, an ambitious group of fans began work on an Unreal Engine 4 “reboot” of role-playing, light-sabering classic Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic called Apeiron. The project has made impressive progress since then, but it emitted a tragic Wilhelm scream this week when Lucasfilm lawyers zapped it out of existence. As…

As WWE ‘Monitors’ The Saudi Arabia Situation, I’m Canceling My WWE Network Subscription

As a fan of anything that you pay a lot of attention to, you accept a certain amount of, let’s call it, imperfection. That’s too polite, of course, for pro wrestling, given the amount of sexism, homophobia, and racial caricature baked into wrestling’s past. But you hope and at times agitate for things to improve.…

‘Zoo Warlock’ Is A Powerful Hearthstone Deck That Anyone Can Play

Hearthstone decks come and go, but certain strategies are so prevalent that they never really disappear. Minion-heavy “Zoo Warlock” decks have always been around in some way or another, but throughout the game’s current Boomsday Project expansion, it’s been one of the strongest decks in the game. Just as “aggro” decks aim to kill the…

Strange Flesh Is Like Streets Of Rage With Much More Sex 

Joe is an office drone. Joe is miserable. Joe is unhappy. Joe is repressed. Joe is horny. NSFW Warning: This post contains NSFW imagery! Luckily for Joe, Strange Flesh is all about breaking free from all that—not through therapy or medication, but through the magic of getting beaten up and seduced by a big beefy…

Vaulting Kicks Ass In Call Of Duty‘s New Battle Royale Mode

If you liked PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, but couldn’t stomach its uneven gameplay, you’re going to love the polish that Call of Duty is bringing to the battle royale genre. One thing that adds that waxy shine to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s battle royale mode, out today, is how good the game is at letting…

The 3D On The 3DS Was Good

I thought I wouldn’t care about Nintendo’s newest 3DS release. I played Luigi’s Mansion on the GameCube ages ago. I liked its 3DS sequel better. I did not feel the need to go back and play the first one. Plus, it’s the Nintendo Switch era and there’s even a Luigi’s Mansion coming to that. Then…

Did you know there’s a storage box aboard your ship in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey? Because there totally is, right behind where you normally stand. Goodbye, crappy Ubisoft Club items that I can’t dismantle. (Thanks, Redditor Tirnirnog86, for pointing this out.)

The Dreamcast 2 Is A Custom-Painted Switch Possessed By The Ghost Of Sega’s Past

I never really thought much about the Dreamcast until it had all but vanished. By then, it had become a minor obsession of mine: a major console with weird games I’d heard and read so much about, but never gotten to play. The Dreamcast had a short life span in stores and friend’s houses, getting…

The Missing Is A Sweet But Gory Puzzle Game

The Missing begins with two messages: “This game was made with the belief that nobody is wrong for being what they are” and “This game contains explicit content, including extreme violence, sexual topics, and depictions of suicide.” The messages cut straight to the chase: The Missing is both a sweet love story and one of…

Overwatch‘s Boops Have Gotten Out Of Control

Over the last few months, Overwatch has looked less like a team shooter and more like the inside of a microwave bag of popcorn. A popular and beloved crowd control mechanic called the “boop” has become so prevalent that it’s causing anguish from players who would rather compete at a first-person shooter than pop idly…

GTA Online‘s Remixed Modes Shake Up The Game

GTA Online’s newest game modes might seem familiar. That’s because Rockstar has recently begun remixing old modes by adding new vehicles, rules or other features. While this isn’t the first time Rockstar has taken something old and added to it, these new remix modes freshen up GTA Online by drawing on what works best about…

The Making Of Nintendo’s Best Nose-Picking Game

We sometimes hear the tales behind the making of Nintendo’s greatest games: the Zeldas, the Marios and the Metroids. Let us bend our ears for another tale, this time of the making of Gold Digger, a game about a finger interacting with a nose. Gold Digger was co-created by Goro Abe, a longtime developer at…

Activision Says Call of Duty Mega Bloks Toys Are Not Aimed At Kids

Call of Duty is one of the biggest gaming franchises in the world, and Activision licenses the brand out to other companies to make merchandise. A lot of the stuff you’ll see the Call of Duty name plastered across seems to be designed for children, which is raising some questions: Why is Activision selling stuff…

Super Mario Party Expects Me To High Five These Jerks

Mario Party is a cruel game that intentionally stokes chaos between friends. Last night I agreed to play the latest game, Super Mario Party, and discovered that this new entry in the franchise has tried to add a form of sportsmanship by making your characters high five each other. It does not have the intended…

Sea of Thieves—yes, people still play it and have fun doing so—has a new patch that overhauls Merchant Alliance quests. “Cargo Runs” have been added, with special goods that pirates need to deliver and handle with care. It’ll hopefully make merchant missions a bit more exciting.

Hardcore Yaoi Game Headed To Nintendo Switch 

Originally released on PC in 2016, adults-only Omega Vampire describes itself as a “New Type of Vampire Boys’ Love Game.” Next year, it is coming onto the Nintendo Switch. Warning: This article has NSFW content. It’s unlikely that this adults-only yaoi game will be released as is. Of course, some of the game’s scenes will…
