In what I thought was one of the top ten most profitable franchises of all time, but turns out to be THE most profitable franchise of all time, it’s more than safe to say that we all have been exposed to Pokemon in one way or another. And that’s great! I imagine there’s a lot my current self and my 8-year-old self would disagree on, but I can say we’d get along concerning Pokemon. It’s fun, it’s addictive, and, once you separate yourself from the idea that the core concept of Pokemon is making…

I remember the first time I ever played an Elder Scrolls game. My friend in grade school lent me his copy of Oblivion for Xbox. Just a few months before the release of Skyrim, I was curious about the hype, but not sold on the concept. I’m happy to say that I had a vicious stomach bug that night. So for the next days, when I stayed home from school, I got to experience the world of Cyrodiil completely uninterrupted. There’s a reason The Elder Scrolls franchise is so massively popular. I’m not go…

Hey there Spiderman consumers! It’s an incredible time to be a fan of the webslinger. The past years have given us so much quality Spiderman content that it’s hard to keep up. So let’s talk about it!

Yikes

Does human interaction really matter all that much when you have video games to play?

Memes worth pausing a game for

It's only been a few days since the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and gamers are already committing war crimes and torturing Koroks with the absolutely insane contraptions they've been creating. (For those of you who aren't caught up on your Zelda lore, Koroks are little wooden spirits who wear leaf masks and protect the forest.) There are seemingly no limitations to what you can fuse and craft in the game, and the players' imaginations are running completely wild, coming…
