Maybe another Steam Game Festival will take some of the sting out of losing E3

More Game Festival platforms are on the way From a personal standpoint, this June is going to feel eerily empty. E3 dominates so much of my headspace starting sometime in April. From travel arrangements to scheduling (so much scheduling) to actually working at the show, E3 had become a major part of my annual routine. E3 2020 would’ve been my ninth one, and not slowly panicking over everything is going to create its own weird anxiety....

In terms of the gaming landscape we’ve come a long way from the 2006 Wii, which was the last big push for the seventh generation of consoles....

Minds blown as Japan chooses LESS chocolate in Splatoon 2 splatfest

Less isn’t always More The line was drawn between two types of Pocky stick, “Regular Pocky” vs “Extremely Thin Pocky”. No contest, right? So imagine the implosion that took place in my tiny mind when Marina’s Team Extremely Thin Pocky took the 2-1 victory. This means that the majority thought having LESS biscuit and chocolate was the better option!! Marina’s team took both the public vote – by 57% – and Regular Play, with Pearl’s Team Regular Pocky pulling back a point on Challenge Play....

Monster Hunter movie casts T.I. and Ron Perlman, will probably be amazing now

Bring it to me It’s totally valid to have concerns over thein-developmentMonster Huntermovie project; not only do video game movies have a rough legacy but writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson has his own legacy with the gleefully-trashyMortal KombatandResident Evilfilms. But like a burst of adrenaline, in comes Ron freakin’ Perlman, who has been cast in the film alongside Clifford “T.I.” Harris.

OK K.O!: Cartoon Network made its own, original game

Steven Universe x Regular Show collab How manyAdventure Timegames has WayForward done now? Thirteen? Twenty-seven? It makes sense. Its original anime likeAdventure Time,Regular Show,andSteven Universeare hits. But why have someone else make the games when you’re able to get the milk for free? Adult Swim Games is at least publishing games likeRick and Morty: Pocket Mortys(and dope stuff unrelated to its programming, likeJazzpunk). Well, Cartoon Network has turned everything on its head by creating a new, in-house video game that isn’t based on any of its established cartoons (though it’s pretty dang similar),OK K....

The memory remains The closure of Miiverse, scheduled for November 8, will result in the sudden, and kinda sad, destruction of thousands of musings, drawings, moments and memes.
