    Former Duke Nukem Teaser Site Reveals Bombshell

    I just couldn't get over how cheap the character model and animations looked. Everything about it screams B-list. If this is the best that they can muster for a teaser, this game is bound for failure.

    Recommend some PS3 exclusives to an XBox 360 user

    Journey, Journey, Journey, one million times Journey (and use headphones when you play it --the music really makes this game). I will also echo Metal Gear Solid 4, Demon's Souls, and Ni No Kuni because they deserve to be repeated. An interesting one I haven't seen mentioned yet is Heavy...

    Zero Punctuation: Dark Souls 2 - Prepare to Die Again

    "Praise the Sun to jump." xD If only the controls could be so grossly incandescent... While I love Dark Souls 2, I cannot stand the stagger mechanic they've put in place. Wearing some of the heaviest armor in the game, you can still find yourself stun-locked by the weakest of enemies if you...

    Neil deGrasse Tyson's Cosmos Arrives in 2014

    I'm just...so happy... The original Cosmos is what first got me interested in science (and now I'm in grad school). If this series is as engaging and uncompromising with the truth as Tyson himself, it will be a wonderful influence on society (America, pay attention).

    The worst way to die?

    How the ebola virus ruins your day: "He becomes dizzy and utterly weak, and his spine goes limp and nerveless and he loses all sense of balance. The room is turning around and around. He is going into shock. He leans over, head on his knees, and brings up an incredible quantity of blood from...

    Bethesda Hasn't Given up Hope on Wii U, Vita

    Sweet Jebus, if we could get a graphically overhauled Morrowind on the Vita... Well, it would likely destroy my life, but it would be awesome.
