I never once thought that I was putting my big ol’ hairy feet in danger. I was wrong. Roxanne Myers was studying gaming addiction for her senior thesis. She went on a two day gaming binge for research (that’s what I call it too) but she ended up falling asleep with her legs still crossed....

Creates more questions than it answers As I’m sure is the case with many of you, the officialZeldatimeline has never sat well with me. I was firmly in the “Zeldadoesn’t need a timeline” camp before its reveal, but the point is moot now as the long-debated true history of Hyrule and its three branching timelines are well known. What hasn’t been known is whereThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildfits into the whole thing....

The retail chain will allow gamers to use in-store credit, from either disc or hardware trade-ins, as well as GameStop gift cards to pay for a digital copy ofDeus Ex: Human Revolution....
