What are your favorites games that have been pretty much lost to time?
Lots of them have been mentioned in videos. FEAR, Max Payne 2, Burnout Revenge. It's honestly a little strange to even see those types of games be gone when they were so heavily discussed back upon ...

Would you believe me if I told you I hadn't seen this movie until two weeks ago? I've got a lot of movie sins, and this is one of them, and it was a pointless one too, because I absolutely loved Jurassic Park. The editing, acting, shot composition, score, pacing, dialogue, characters, it's multiple things come together in a s...

I've theorized for the past three years that the only way DICE could rekindle hype for a new Battlefield title was announce Bad Company 3. Battlefield V's a game whose reputation seems to change with every rotation of the Earth, but one thing's for certain, it was the most controversial title in the series to date.

I imagine Sebastian Vettel would be the one to take the title fight were Aston Martin to have a competitive car in 2022, but Stroll's not nearly as bad as people gave him shit for, and I think that really occurred to people when Mazepin came in.

I've just come off of watching Legend, the duo Biopic where the duo's soloed by Tom Hardy and it's... mixed. There's some good scenes in there, but there's also a lot of tedious pacing, weak themes, and (I don't say this often) pretentious writing.
It's honestly kind of interesting how a big budget, highly ambitious mul...

It's a question I've often asked, and normally when playing a game, it doesn't take long to figure out why it'd make me ask that. There's games like Hover, with an excellent core-gameplay loop that's intoxicating, and utterly wasted through tedious structure and repetitive missions.
There's games like BallisticNG which ...

Hey everybody,
I know the immediate question. Where's the content been? In the bin, mostly. It really doesn't feel like June to me. Though nothing's been released, a lot has been done, just unfortunately, not in regards to releasing content. Mostly, cancelled projects, and depressing personal matters that I'd r...

Grappling Hooks. They always make videogames better, so when you've got a game like Sky Noon's whose entire gameplay premise is an unlimited grappling hook, you're off to a good start.
It's a First Person Shooter, but kills aren't earned through headshots or pumping the enemy full of led until they fall to the ground, t...

The first video I ever made was on my Mother's 2006 Macbook. The software was iMovie, and the hardware used to record gameplay footage was a Camcorder with RCA jacks, letting me plug it into the TV and use its tapes to capture Halo 2 gameplay.
Yup, somewhere out there are physical tapes with butchered Halo 2 gameplay by...

To be blunt, I could just put Cowboy Bebop's Complete OST on this recommendation, but not only is that hours and hours of material to put upon people, it overshadows some of the overlooked album releases, like this one.

Some people have expressed dismay at how No Man’s sky’s updates made the gameplay less unique/more like other games. Similar complaints to siege. With that set up, how important should it be that updates/DLC for a game don’t alter it too much. Is there a limit to adding/changing base gamepla...
I've always said the Military Shooter Squad is a game that's 90% bullshit you play for the 10% that's amazing. Well, Hell Let Loose is here to severely heighten the fun ratio.

I don't know what inclines me to finally play, watch, and listen to famous works of art. The reason I put on Bjork's sophomore album, is because I was going through old Top Gear songs on Spotify, heard "Hyperballed" and thought "Oh yeah, I've been meaning to try that."

For those who grew up with PC Server Browsers, you almost certainly encountered one that hosted a single map and mode till the end of time.

Sometimes you just watch a movie that is so exceedingly good, you've gotta shout at the credits with a friend about how good it was. That's Leon for me. The writer/director might've been coasting between projects, but it is a career defining film for nearly everyone involved.
