Surprised this wasn't on here: Wizards of the Coast sent the actual Pinkertons to someone's home because he received the wrong box of Magic: The Gathering cards.


Way to rehabilitate your public image after the whole Dungeons & Dragons debacle, guys.

(For those not versed in American history: The Pinkerton Detective Agency has a long and storied history of using violence on behalf of businesses, especially for the cause of union-busting.)

Yeah, the Pinkertons being depicted as a bunch of heavily armed thugs in RDR2 wasn't far from reality(though apparently they protested this depiction when the game came out) and it's telling in Bioshock Infinite that Booker was a Pinkerton until he got kicked out(possibly for being too violent even for them, which is saying something.)

Geno Kids: A cross between DMC5, Hi-Fi Rush, and Oneechanbara Z2: Chaos (switching between 4 characters). Hopefully this game gets enough funding to make it to consoles too.

I wish the best, but I'm not exactly looking forward to it.




Fuck off; you have no room to cry or complain! Isn't right Mister NFT and only Battle-Royales-should-exists?

Hey guys remember that Redfall game that announced terrible performance on the Series S?

That was red flag number 1.

Red flag 2 is.....
Oooh boy, they are just waving those red flags aren't they?

JS is getting a patch on PC

Going by the subreddit and the steam discussion page, it seems while there are still many issues to iron out, the performance for the most part has improved

Digital Foundry wasn't too harsh on the Playstation 5's performance. It's got some problems, but it's certainly far better than the PC. They've not been able to test the xbox consoles yet because they had to buy their own copy at launch to begin testing.

This aint real, but it was funny.

I swear every year when a big AAA game comes out with the word fall at the end of it, is either above mediocre or just flat out bad. Godfall, Babylon's Fall, and now Redfall. The only exception I can think of, is Greedfall, but that's on more of the mid budget end.

At least Zelda fans will be getting a good game this month. It'll probably be the darling for the Game Awards this year regardless of whatever else comes out. I already know I will hate the game so I wont be bothering with it, but I hope it's everything Zelda people want.

or.....Opps.
