Artistic indie developers have taken the world by storm. It’s their time to shine, with a wide interest in aesthetically pleasing games taking the forefront for most consumers. We usually see this in farming games and life simulators like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley, but these creative developers are branching out towards other genres. There are plenty of time management games that offer an adorable aesthetic and character design while offering the player a real challenge with real rewards....

Who will replace Alex Trebek on Jeopardy? Who can replace Alex Trebek on Jeopardy? While some names have been thrown around since the passing of the TV legend, his shoes will be a tough one to fill. “When Alex Trebek began hosting Jeopardy, Ronald Reagan was in his first term, Ghostbusters was a recent box-office hit, and most Millennials hadn’t been born yet. Now, after nearly four decades, his time behind the podium is done....

The London Royal Ravens took to Twitter recently to announce Trei “Zer0” Morris from the New York Subliners as their newest roster addition heading into the Seattle Surge Home Series weekend. As teams look to make a push in the second half of the season, this is the second big roster shift heading into the weekend after the Chicago Huntsmen secured Preston “Prestinni” Sanderson from the Florida Mutineers. Zer0 started out with the New York Subliners at the start of the inaugural season of the Call of Duty League....

The 2020 Overwatch League season is officially in the past. Teams rose to the occasion all year while others faltered, but it was the San Francisco Shock that emerged victorious once the championship dust settled. As the offseason gets underway, organizations will be looking to make moves heading into 2021. The Los Angeles Gladiators were one of the first teams to announce player changes with five players from 2020 parting ways with the team....

Madden NFL 21 was one of the biggest releases of August, and though it outsold every game by a landslide that month, it doesn’t mean that gamers are happy with the outcome. Playing the game feels almost as if EA is intentionally trying to destroy the legendary status that the Madden series has. However, while many players claim that this entry in the franchise is the last nail in the coffin, as not even the odd addition of Snoop Dogg can save it, there are still some moments where the game shines....

As most players experienced when jumping into the first few hours of the game’s recent beta, Marvel’s Avengers is - despite its live-service multiplayer core - a very story-focused game. Following the Avengers disbanding after a cataclysmic event called A-day, the game will see players looking to reunite the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in an effort to put a stop to the plans of some of the team’s most nefarious enemies....

As if the recent PlayStation showcase couldn’t have just shown us the Star Wars: KOTOR remake and God of War: Ragnarok trailer and called it a day, Sony had to go one step further and give us an early glimpse at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 that ended with a brief look at what figures to be one of the game’s biggest new characters, Venom. Now, some are already suggesting that Venom is the one narrating that new trailer, but based on the accent and dialog, it seems more likely that’s actually an unseen Kraven the Hunter....

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition appears to be an effective remaster of the beloved trilogy, with BioWare detailing several fan-requested improvements thus far. The latest change to be spotlighted is boss fights, with Mass Effect: Legendary Edition changing these battles in important ways. Thus far, BioWare has covered several Mass Effect: Legendary Edition improvements, ranging from better AI and camera systems to improved controls for the Mako vehicle. Shorter elevator rides, improved visuals, and smoother aiming will all be seen in the upgraded game as well....

I underestimated my nostalgia for Mass Effect as I booted up the first game yesterday. Despite simply sporting a new coat of paint and several mechanical improvements in the Legendary Edition, Commander Shepard’s debut adventure somehow still carries the same weight and circumstance it did all those years ago. Upon creating my galactic hero, I’m asked to determine their origins, psyche, and abilities in the field - all facets of this character that will inform how people treat them, and how they’ll come to save the galaxy in the adventures to come....

This article contains spoilers for Masters of the Universe: Revelation. Bo Burnham’s Netflix comedy special Inside is just under two months old now and yet it already seems to be a disturbingly prescient bit of art about the internet era. Consider, for a moment, the line: “The backlash to the backlash to the thing that’s just begun.” Netflix’s Masters of the Universe continuation, Revelation, was just released on July 23. And yet…the backlash to the backlash to the thing that’s just begun has already arrived....

Matthew Vaughn loves watching The Man Who Would Be King (1975). It’s easy to see why. The John Huston adaptation of a Rudyard Kipling yarn is one of the best adventure films ever made, not least of all because Huston and his co-screenwriter Gladys Hill were able to quietly insert some anti-imperialist critiques into the story of Danny and Peachy (Sean Connery and Michael Caine), two former British sergeants in 19th century India who turn soldiers of fortune and, eventually, men who might call themselves living gods....

Major video game review platform Metacritic announces a big change to user reviews in order to combat review bombing. The change comes after The Last of Us 2 was review bombed by Metacritic users who gave the game a score of 3.4 out of 10 compared to the 95 out of 100 that it received from critics. Today, Metacritic officially announced that it would be making users wait 36 hours before posting a review about a game....

In the age of always online systems and day one patches, it’s pretty rare for a AAA game to launch without any problems. Developers are often hard at work on patches before a game has even officially hit the shelves. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is a game jam-packed with content (so much so that some had to be left out) and in a game that big, it’s inevitable that a few bugs find their way to the surface....

If you fancy taking back control of a steampunk-esque town (denser than Cyberpunk 2077’s Santo Domingo) as a fast and furious bunny, then FIST might be your cup of oil grease. Available as an alpha demo on Steam, this bunny is taking revenge on some puny machines that have taken over his city. FIST (an acronym for Forged In Shadow Torch) is labeled as a “dieselpunk” beat ‘em up, offering glorious visuals of the grungy Torch City, which carries the classic metroidvania style....

One of the biggest takeaways from watching Microsoft’s most recent Xbox Series X reveal event was that Xbox Game Pass is going to be a huge deal for the company. The subscription-based model has already been touted by many as one of the best assets Microsoft currently has in its arsenal, allowing players to access a multitude of incredible experiences by paying one affordable, fixed monthly fee. It seems there are some big upcoming plans for the service as well, with Xbox Head Phil Spencer remarking on the most recent episode of Animal Talking that players should expect some amazing things from the service in the months to come....

The logo for Blizzard’s esports initiative, the Overwatch League, seems like a pretty good fit. It features Tracer, the character from the game’s boxart, mid-dash and the contrast of its black, white and orange help the logo to stand out well in the increasingly crowded esports space. Unfortunately though, the well-designed logo may soon need to be changed if Major League Baseball (MLB) gets its way as the organization argues that the Overwatch League logo is too similar to its own....

The reality that Kingdom Hearts 3 is going to launch in less than a month is slowly settling in for fans. The wait has been long and exhausting in many regards, yet the community has nevertheless remained stalwart in their support, given Square Enix’s relative transparency and co-directors Tetsuya Nomura and Tai Yasue’s communication. Now with Kingdom Hearts 3 just weeks away, Yasue is sharing a bit more regarding the team’s struggles during the game’s development....

For the last decade, there have been three dream gaming projects that fans have wanted, but many doubted would ever actually see the light of day. And then E3 2015 happened, and two out of those three projects were announced in the form of Shenmue 3, which is being funded partially through Kickstarter, and the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Unfortunately, the third dream game remains as elusive as ever. The game in question is Half-Life 3, and while Valve seems adamant on not saying anything about the game, no one has forgotten about it....
