Monster Hunter: World‘s New Behemoth Fight Requires A Different Mindset

I was recently on vacation and away from Monster Hunter: World while I enjoyed the wonders of California, and now that I’m home, I’m catching up on new quests. The largest and, to me, the most exciting of the game’s recent developments is the addition of Final Fantasy XIV’s Behemoth. While the fight can be…

You Can’t Keep Sims Sober

The Sims is a pretty good simulacrum of human life. Sims fall in and out of love, move, change careers, have families, and grow old. It’s easy to see the ups and downs of life reflected in this game—Sims even endure the mundanity of catching a cold and getting bad grades. One thing Sims can’t…

IGN Pulls Ex-Editor’s Posts After Dozens More Plagiarism Accusations Surface

The gaming site IGN is working to remove all of the posts written by former editor Filip Miucin, who was fired last week for plagiarism, after internet sleuths found that dozens of his articles and videos copied or rephrased from other websites without attribution “We’ve seen enough now, both from the thread and our own…

GTA Online Is Full Of Places Where You’ll Automatically Die

A GTA Online player goes to the top of a building and walks towards the end of the roof. Before they reach the edge, their character suddenly dies and is teleported to the ground below. Another player is walking up a set of stairs when the same thing happens. There are no gunshots or explosions—just…

A Next-Gen Yu-Gi-Oh! Playmat 

When you think of typical Yu-Gi-Oh! playmats, you think of actual mats. This is hardly your typical setup. Here is the previously mentioned traditional Yu-Gi-Oh! playmat Twitter user Reo posted this do-it-yourself projected playmat. The sound effects are a nice touch! Let’s hope this is the future.

Stop-Motion Gundam Is Like Toy Story With Plastic Mecha

For the past few years, YouTuber Rihito Ue has been creating stop-motion clips. They are great. Ue juxtaposes scenes from the Gundam anime with stop-motion recreations. Each clip takes place in a single shot in real-world locations. It’s like the models have come to life, Toy Story style. As IT Media points out, Ue’s clips…

Opponents Logan Paul Should Fight In The UFC, Ranked

Next week, YouTuber of suicide forest infamy Logan Paul will step into the ring for his first-ever boxing match against marginally more experienced YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI.

Sims 4 Torture House Breaks The Game

Here is a house so bizarre, so broken in its design and execution that when Sims actually try and live in it the game just can’t cope. Made by Aussie James Turner, it’s a hellish square of hedges and fences that asks Sims to travel 3700 squares just to “enter”. And once they get there,…

Decoding Smash Ultimate‘s Apparent New ‘Spirits’ Mode

In the last Nintendo Direct, which was all about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, game director Masahiro Sakurai said that there’s still one more game mode that he can’t talk about yet. Fans think they’ve figured out what it’s called, but they still don’t know what it actually is. I’ve got a few ideas. At the…

Monster Hunter: World Is Even Better The Second Time Around

I’ve been voraciously replaying Monster Hunter: World on PC over the last few weeks, and have been having a hell of a good time. That’s partly because it’s just a good game, but also because I’m so, so much better at it than I was on my first time through. I first played Capcom’s third-person…

In Defense of ROMs, A Solution To Dying Games And Broken Copyright Laws

Various game emulation sites are pulling down their software libraries, or ceasing to exist entirely, following a lawsuit filed by Nintendo against one of the largest of their kind. This is hardly tantamount to the erasure of all unauthorized copies of older video games from the internet, but it’s still gotten a lot of folks…

My Personal Battle For Azeroth Is Sorting Through All These Side Quests

There’s only so much punishment a gnome Warlock can take, and I can’t take no more. World of Warcraft’s Battle for Azeroth expansion is live, and the Horde is going to pay for their grievous trespasses.

How To Get Monster Hunter: World Working Better On PC

Monster Hunter: World finally came out on PC last week. It’s a hell of a fun game, but the PC version has some frustrating technical problems.
