You dream of scorched vistas. A mysterious voice resonates through your fitful dreams, ensuring you that you are being watched. Shortly after, you awake in the sodden guts of a prison ship carried across the sea to a foreign land for reasons unknown. Little do you realize the true nature of this strange land upon

We’ve spoken before about how…strange the current-gen console wars really are. In some ways, it feels like we’re still waiting for this generation of console gaming to properly begin. Of course, so long as most gamers need to choose between the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch, the debate about which console had

Microsoft has confirmed that High on Life is not only the biggest Game Pass new release of 2022 but the biggest 3rd party Game Pass launch ever (based on the number of hours played in the first five days of release). While that’s obviously an incredible accomplishment, it’s really not as surprising s it may

Console wars are nothing new. Back in the Sega Genesis and SNES days, Sega tried to convince audiences that their console did what Nintendon’t (and vice versa).

Its fate would be a modern retelling of the myth of

We were treated to some incredible announcements, quite a few great games walked away with awards, and it was certainly nice to see the show return to a live format. However,

Unlike console owners, PC gamers have no shortage of digital distribution platforms. Epic Games and EA have their own storefronts, but anyone looking for the biggest collection with titles from virtually every publisher on the market probably uses Steam. In 2003, Valve launched their digital PC gaming platform, not as a means to distribute games

The entertainment industry is full of award ceremonies, and gaming is no exception.

The Pokémon franchise has been running strong for just over 25 years.

The Nintendo 64 was an unusual console. While popular at the time of its release, and home to some all-time classics like Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the hardware also received plenty of criticism for sticking to cartridges, which badly limited what developers could do compared to the original

Despite their many problems, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet tap into the heart of what makes Pokémon…well…Pokémon.
