Admit It: Video Games Will Never Reach The Grandeur Of 2006’s Wii Sports Ever Again, And That’s Okay

We are gathered here today to mourn the fact that we’ll likely never see a video game like Wii Sports again. It had families playing baseball together. It had fathers golfing with their children. It had grandmothers taking to the ring to punch every one of their descendants in the nunchucks. What a time it was to be alive. TheNintendo Wiiis one of the best-selling consoles of all time, being one of the few with over 100 million units sold, and you could feel it....

Best Games With Polyamorous Romance Options

Romance is a staple in many video game genres, and has been for decades. From humble life sims to grand RPGs, we all want to find a little love along the way. And when you play a game filled with so many deep and interesting characters, it can be hard to find the one you (or at least your character) truly wants to spend their life with. But what if that didn’t have to be the case?...

Best PC Settings For Elden Ring Nightreign

Quick Links Elden Ring Nightreignhas been a pleasant surprise for Souls fans. This game takes the brutal difficulty curve of FromSoftware titles and mixes it with the replayability of a rogue-like, doing so without abandoning the core combat and boss design of the previous title. Unfortunately, that also means the performance woes of Elden Ring’s PC port return in Nightreign. Getting this game to perform well on a modern system should prove easy if you have good hardware, but those on older systems will need to fiddle with the settings to get a solid frame rate....

Forget The Microtransactions, Mecha Break Just Isn't Very Fun

For months now, I’ve been under the impression thatMecha Breakwas going to be the biggest game of the summer. Its Steam demo hit over 300,000 players a while back and feedback from fans and critics has been largely positive. I had a decent time with it too, although I jumped in a bit too late only to find myself utterly lost in the sauce. There were a lot of women with jiggly bodies and enormous mechs for them to control....

Geoff Crookes, Sarah Asselin, George Spanos, And Scott McGregor Talk About Finding The Soul In Soulframe

Back when Digital Extremes announced Soulframe, I must admit I was a bit skeptical; the name seemed too derivative, the combat was too slow for my taste, and while the aesthetic in the demo was interesting enough, I wasn’t too sold on the overall idea. After watching the Tennocon preview for the upcoming content, I realize I couldn’t have been more wrong. Initially met with some resistance back in 2024, the Soulframe Preludes (which is the name for the closed alpha version of the game) have gone through a journey of adaptation, renewal, and ambition....
