    Hurricane Jose Will be Deported, White House Says

    What the hell? This isn't even tangentially related to gaming or geekdom. Why on earth are you publishing stories like this? It isn't even an original or clever joke. Anyone with two brain cells can think up "Hurricane has Mexican name, Trump wants to deport it, hur hur hur!"

    Valve Announces New Dota 2 Card Game, Artifact

    I wonder if Blizz might try to shut this down because Dota was based on their original characters. They reached a settlement with Valve so they could make Dota 2 with new names but I wonder if that extends to spinoffs. Especially if its going to cut into one of their most profitable games at the...

    Platinum Games Says it is "Constantly Talking" About Bayonetta 3

    Hmmm, male Bayonetta. Might work but they could go in many different ways with the character. They would certainly have a lot more hair to fuel attacks. /shudder

    Get a First Look at Far Cry 5 and a Release Date in this New Trailer

    I'm not angry Ubisoft, I'm just disappointed you're using such lazy and outdated stereotypes. Farcry has always been set in "dangerous and exotic lands" but even in Montana civilization has complete control. The American militia movement is a joke and their greatest success was occupying a park...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Earns $145 Million in its First Weekend

    Thought it was really good. Visuals were awesome, Yondu's arc was great, lots of great humor. Unfortunately there was some cringy moments, the music in the background trick they pulled in the first one came off as stale this time around, and it was more "potty mouthed" than the first. Also, best...

    Overwatch Has Earned Over a Billion Dollars Since it Launched in May

    Yeah, they say they have 30 million players, and just to low ball it lets say everyone bought the game for $40. If I'm doing my math right that's 1,200,000,000 from game sales alone. Are they using a weasel definition of "Player", like those that log in for free weekends or beta? Would be...

    Overwatch Has Earned Over a Billion Dollars Since it Launched in May

    Or maybe they're getting a cut of all the "mature" "artwork" that's been made of it. In which case why is it only 1 billion?

    Overwatch Has Earned Over a Billion Dollars Since it Launched in May

    Holy cow, except for the initial game purchase does that mean the rest of this came from just lootboxes?

    Ace Every Exam & Final With The Persona 5 Test Cheat Sheet

    Awesome! I only squeaked by on the first question because my mom was a philosophy teacher and I'd picked it up.

    The Final NES Classic Edition Shipments are Hitting North America This Month

    I kind of understand what Nintendo was thinking. A significant part of this is the warehousing, shipping and logistics of a physical product. If you sell out you're still guaranteed a profit, if it doesn't sell out then you have a backlog to store (which costs a good bit of money) and eventually...

    8 Shows and Movies That Make the Tech-Savvy Of Us Cringe

    The independence day one is really egregious, but apparently they had a scene in the original script where they how it would work. They had been reverse engineering the alien computer system since they recovered it in the Roswell crash. All of our computer technology had been based on it and...

    Update: Overwatch Game Director Thinks Bastion is "A Little Too Powerful"

    My goodness Mr. Holmes, this area is completely void of fecal matter! I played for a couple of months after release but eventually quite because 1, I am a scrub who can't really aim and 2. I kept dying within two seconds of being attacked because I didn't have time to react. Most of the...

    Check Out Overwatch's New Hero: Orisa, In Action

    I understand how this can be useful for a team mechanically but I'm really not liking the lack of originality. I don't mind a little overlap with other classes. IE, Reinhart and Symetra both use barriers but all their other abilities and playstyle are unique. As you said in the article she only...

    Starting a New Character in Nioh Could Cost You Your Old Save Game

    My initial thoughts were that this sounded more like a feature than a bug as well. What does that say about this genre?

    #004: Fresh Start

    Wait, wouldn't having a custom printed book shelf screen cost more than a cheap shelf from Goodwill and some books from the free bin at the library? I'm also noticing this is numbered 004, is the series rebooting? Looking forward either way!
