    Will the Cyanide & Happiness Card Game Be the Next Exploding Kittens?

    Crude humor and offensive humor isn't the same. Sex and violence are fine. They do not target minorities and they don't pretend that offensive stereotypes are somehow edgy. "I never expected this in my stocking. A filthy gypsy." is an example of Cards Against Humanity humour. Nothing depicted...

    Will the Cyanide & Happiness Card Game Be the Next Exploding Kittens?

    The comparison with CAH doesn't fly. Cards against humanity relied on offensive humour. I don't think this cyanide and happiness game relies on "Lol, a big black cock" or "Lol, jews."

    New Battery Tech Gives Eight Hours of Play Time on One-Minute Charge

    How on earth do you charge a battery with a physical reaction? It's either nuclear or electromagnetic then? It seems very unlikely that tech of this importance is released for an xbox controller before anything else. If this was true, we'd be seeing it in phones and cars already, no?

    The Warcraft Movie Trailer Has Leaked Online

    It's basically exactly what I feared: the cgi already looks dated.

    Cypher System Rulebook Review - The GM's Toybox

    Is there a reason for the typo in the title that I missed?

    The Hatfall Ultimate PC Giveaway

    I don't "get" the game. I get the feeling it's downright obnoxious, even though I'm a ZP fan.

    App Store Pulling Games That Include the Confederate Flag - UPDATE

    Forcing children to recite oaths to their country wasn't enough. Now you have to ban the flag of your historic opponent and darker side of your history from being seen in public? America is scary.

    Steam Summer Sale Begins, Homeworld, XCOM and More Discounted

    The monster game doesn't work. Just like most of the new fiddlywinks steam does for each sale, on day 1.

    Amazon is Hiring to Create its First PC Game

    You know, Amazon is probably *the* company to run something that's heavily server-based. I hope they don't go for a standard mmo, but there's other applications of LIMITLESS CLOUD POWER that I can think of.

    Jammers should be standard equipment in classrooms.

    Candy Crush Saga Comes Pre-Installed on Windows 10

    Are we entirely sure that M$ didn't pay them for it? After all, Skinner Box Saga is hugely popular. I'm actually surprised Windows 10 isn't going to be bundled with minecraft, seeing as how they paid two billion for it.

    Get Your First Look at Supergirl With This 6-Minute Teaser

    I'm going to be just positive about this. I liked it. The on-the-nose positive and fun way they're spooling this out is a breath of fresh air in superhero country. No dark and broody grim-ness. If they don't overdo it, this just might be a very entertaining series to watch.

    Star Ruler 2 Review - Unique in Nearly Every Way

    Anyone care to mention anything on how the combat plays out? The review is surprisingly silent on that front.

    The Escapist Presents: Avengers Assemble - Take My Money Pilot

    Lüt. [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL652F457A0C7E45DB] Game Lüt. [https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Game+L%C3%BCt] At least you made it themed, so it isn't a *complete* rip-off of the concept, but it wouldn't kill you to get a bigger selection together and make the...

    World of Warcraft Suffers Biggest Subscriber Drop in History

    And with each new expansion, the upswing will be smaller and the drop afterwards will be bigger. Everyone is aware of this, right?
