So, that was quick. We don’t have to keep pretending that we don’t see these things, or that we don’t know what’s going on. After the leaks of the...
Another day, another random Nintendo Switch 2 leak. This time, from Laura Kate Dale. This one shows off the Switch 2 dock, which Dale notes “ships...

I’ve probably put over 1,000 hours into Destiny 2 from the time it launched to the day I finally put it down for good about a year ago. So what I’m...

There aren’t many games that cause a flood of memories to come back quite like the N64 classic shooter, Goldeneye 007. The single player was cool,...
Adult animation is a genre of TV that holds a very special place in my heart. From The Simpsons to Family Guy and the somehow underrated Adult Swim...

I love the original Mass Effect trilogy. That’s not exactly a huge leap but it is what makes Mass Effect: Andromeda so disappointing. I was ready...
