Having nerdy household items is something my wife and I really enjoy. We have an Infinity Gauntlet oven mitt, a Super Nintendo Entertainment System cartridge as a wooden cutting board, and now, we are using Pixel Pals from Performance Design Products as nightlights in our kids rooms. As a reviewer, I've been fortunate enough to get a number of Pixel Pals for review from PDP, but when I like a product, I always like to head to the store and pick up a few extras paid out of my own pocket. Free products are great, yes, but supporting these companies is equally ...

The beginning of gaming at home can really be traced back to computers like the Spectrum and Commodore 64 becoming available. However, advances in technology now mean that it is possible for you to play superior, sophisticated, and increasingly interactive games that are not limited to being enjoyed on your home computer or gaming console.

Over the last week, and basically ever since The Pokémon Company sent over a box of the latest Pokémon Sun and Moon expansion, I've been using the pre-maid Burning Shadows decks to play a number of rounds with my seven year old son. We would swap decks often to keep things a bit fresh, but never once deviated from what The Pokémon Company placed in the boxes. On the whole, things were pretty balanced; although I won more often than my son, it was often chalked up too more experience, rather than better card types.

The term - or perhaps genre - titled Proof-of-Concept Video Games is not something most average video game enthusiasts would understand, but these titles do get released frequently, and they aren't often from developers you've heard of on the front lines. Instead, these games are produced by companies often contracted to do some type of work on a video game. In the case of Cloudgine - who has done work on the upcoming Xbox One title Crackdown 3 - there latest title They Came from Space will show off a whole new cloud physics engine.

Have you ever played a video game, sunk many hours into it, and realize that a familiar phrase out of your mouth was, "What the hell did I just watch and play?" Those games, generally, are the ones that keep you playing, keep you guessing, and in some situations, begin messing with the deepest part of your mind as you navigate the various puzzles and elements the game throws at you. A few hours into >observer_, and I can tell you that this is definitely the case.

Conan Exiles has hit the Xbox One finally after being in PC early access for over 6 months. With all that knowledge gained from the first six months on PC, as well as the bug fixes and content tupdates that have already come, Xbox One players will enjoy a more structured experience than those who adopted very early on PC. While we still expect a number of bugs to be present in the game - it is early access after all - we are also confident that the developers at Fancom have been working hard to bring a better-than-expected experience to the console marketplace.

Might solve a mystery or rewrite history…Ducktales! Woo–oo. (stops singing). Yes, today I’m going to talk about Ducktales. Specifically Ducktales Remastered, a video game that came out on the Wii U awhile back. I’m sure it came out other places too but I played it on the Wii U. And now seems like a great time to talk about this game again with the new cartoon having just premiered last week! Was I supposed to talk about something else today?…

Just when you thought the developers behind Middle Earth: Shadow of War were out of ideas, a fresh new on pops up that continues to build our own hype for the games upcoming release. In a new trailer launched today (embedded below), we get our first look at the Terror Tribe, a faction of Orcs who's sole purpose is to spread fear throughout Mordor. The tribal system is new to Shadow of War, one of the many characteristics that will set it apart from it's predecessor, Shadow of Mordor. Check out the trailer below, and the full details below that!

I’m not a Monster Hunter fan. I’ve have tried demos of the other games and didn’t care for them much. But Monster Hunter Stories looked different. The game has cel-shaded graphics and a turn-based rpg battle system. I like both. Would I like Monster Hunter Stories better than the games it was related to? I got a chance to find out with the recently released 3DS eshop demo. Here are my impressions of it. I wasn’t sure what to expect…
