Though it's undeniable that video game graphics are advancing rapidly, lore is getting richer with the growing popularity of open world games, and it's becoming more common for big publishers to hire movie stars to play characters or appear as NPCs, that doesn't mean “video game logic” isn't any less absurd. At the end of the day, video games aren't movies, and they certainly aren't real life, and when we turn on any video game, we have to suspend our disbelief quite a bit. But so what if punch…

Look for the light

Gamers rise up.

We're sad to report that there are still gamers in 2023 who are not only mad about seeing realistic depictions of female human characters in video games, but also feel inclined to tweet about their bad opinions no one asked for.

Rockstar Games' masterpiece Red Dead Redemption 2 came out about five years ago, and yet it still feels just as exceptional as some of the best recently released titles. The protagonist Arthur Morgan and his story are brilliantly written, the game is visually stunning, and the attention to detail in the gameplay mechanics is impressive to this day. If you're as big of a fan of the RDR series as we are, these memes are gonna make you wanna yeehaw.

If you're a PC gamer then it's safe to assume you're probably using Steam . No sane person would willingly use something like Epic Games' launcher as their first choice. That isn't to say that Steam doesn't have its notorious quirks and glitches, but hey, nobody's perfect. If you're a PC gamer who has had to enter your birthday into Steam's login window about a million times, then these are the memes for you.

The first ever Legend of Zelda game was released on February 21, 1986. That means Zelda just had its 37th birthday, can you believe it?
