At the grizzled old age of 32 sometimes I need help understanding the basics of the modern world. What is a dab? Why is TikTok a thing when it’s so obviously not a thing? And today, what the hell are vtubers? For a while now, there’s been a lot on the internet that I haven’t understood. Frankly, it’s only been getting worse. As someone who grew up in 90s chatrooms, I used to get the wild west nature of the…

In the late eighties and early nineties, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were extremely popular. They were everywhere: from their start in comics, to cartoons, toys, movies, and of course video games. The turtles seemed unstoppable. Over the years though, they’ve become less popular. While the turtles haven’t disappeared, they have never reached their popularity of the 80s/90s. And now…we are about to get two games this year, plus a new animated movie is in the works. Is Turtlemania returning?…

Almost two months ago Microsoft announced it was making the biggest purchase in the history of video games. Xbox is buying Activision. Then they disappeared. Call me ungrateful if you’d like. It’s a seemingly obtuse point to make: that they are both making the biggest purchase in the history of video games and being too quiet. The patient adult in me wants to accept that there are things happening behind the scenes. The obnoxious internet side of my personality wants…

The final DLC has landed for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and it's a big one. Dawn of Ragnarok is available now, and thanks to Ubisoft Canada, I had an early go at the entire experience. Is it worth the price? Is it worth the investment? As someone who loves fantasy worlds and the Assassin's Creed gameplay loop, I would say yes!

Playstation had a State of Play video today. You can check it out below and then please come back here for my thoughts on it. Oh dude! COWABUNGA! Before I get to THAT announcement, let me back track a little bit. I admit when I first saw Capcom’s new game, I thought it might be a new Dino Crisis. Yes, I know there were no mechs in the original Dino Crisis, but you never know. Instead it was a brand…

There were no 15 minutes introductory cutscenes. There’s no quest log or diary of recent dialogue. Hell, there isn’t even a Sonic the Hedghog-esque voice actor saying “previously on…” every time I load. I have no idea what’s happening in Elden Ring – and I love it. I mean, hey, I like being beaten over the head with issues as much as the next guy. I’m sure those giants I’ve killed over and over are Somalian pirates or something. Or…
