Bundle For Racial Justice

Square Enix will be donating $250,00, and Niantic has shattered all of that with their pledge of a minimum $5 million. A lot of the other bigger ones, not so much. A lot of…

We haven't had a really good "metroidvania" style game released in a long time. Yeah, the newest Shantae game - Shantae and the Seven Sirens -  just came out, and it's amazing if you haven't played it yet. But there hasn't been a "wow... I need to play this game" type of indie game that has come out in a long time. 

It's been two years since Koji Igarashi's Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was released. Which shattered Kickstarter records and despite its flaws at…

I don't think there wasn't a kid in the 90's who didn't know who Tony Hawk was. He was every where during that time. 

He was even popular enough to have his own video game. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater was released on the PS1 in 1999, the height of the "extreme sports" phase. I don't think anybody, from that era of gaming, has not, in some…
