I love a good video game field trip. There’s something satisfying about booting up a game and saying, “Hey, I’ve been there!” Only to immediately follow that up with, “Wait, no I haven’t, what the hell is this?” Some games nail the assignment. Others feel like they Googled it once and called it a day. This list is my report card on which games did these iconic real-world locations justice, and which ones deserve to be scolded like a Sims player who just removed all the toilets from the house....

Quick Links Nice Nature doesn’t live up to her name as she is a devious racer inUmamusume: Pretty Derby.

But if you want to get the most out of this event in terms of rewards, you’ll need to be very particular about how you frame these photos....

I’m Ben, and I spend money on live-service video games that may shutter their virtual doors at any point. I make a point of not counting how much I spend, but it’s not a lot. I bought one Collection Event in Apex Legends forFuse’s heirloom– which I don’t regret – buy a few coins during bigPokemon Goevents – which I don’t regret either – and over a decade ago spent three figures onYu-Gi-Oh!...

Summary My life was forever changed bySuper Street Fighter 4. It’d been years since I had played a fighting game before meeting my now-wife late in college. It’s a genre meant to be experienced by other people and my quiet, Appalachian hometown wasn’t exactly rife with arcades or other dedicated players to duke it out with. Fast-forward to 2010 and a girl I began to develop feelings for asked me if I had tried Capcom’s latest fighter for myself....

PlayStationhas always been the king of console redesigns. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll always love the ‘New’Nintendoline of systems or the various refreshes made to theSwitch, but it’s hard to beat the streak Sony went on during its first few generations on the gaming market. ThePS2was shrunk down to an adorable little black box with the Slim model, while thePS3received a number of different iterations that sought to innovate upon the original design as it was made more efficient and affordable....

Summary Marvel Rivalshasa lot of problems at the moment, but the one area in which you can argue that it’s been killing it is in the skins department. It feels like almost every hero has one or two cool new skins to show off right now, which is pretty good going considering the game isn’t even six months old. In fact, it was announced thatAdam Warlock and Scarlet Witch will be getting some new skins via the game’s store, but for what feels like the first time since launch, a lot of people don’t seem to be particularly pleased....
