Your gaming home away from home!
In games, as in life, a picture can tell a thousand words. Sometimes, all one needs is merely the sight of a favorite character to know something great from their favorite company is on the horizon, if it isn’t already there. These character representations – these mascots – might seem frivolous, but they serve as…
Despite a ton of (better) competition in the battle royale genre, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) is still somehow hanging in there. What’s crazier, it’s been hanging in there as a “paid” game this whole time! Well, that’ll be changing come January. After all these years, PUBG is finally going free-to-play (F2P).
This week’s Listmas theme covers mascot characters, those characters that are so darn iconic that they actually represent an entire company or franchise. Today’s post shall cover the Duck’s favorite examples of mascot characters in gaming, in no particular order.
Just recently, Studio MDHR released a brand new trailer for the long-awaited Cuphead DLC, The Delicious Last Course! Just the stop-motion trailer alone is absolutely amazing, but I suppose our main focus should be on the set of brand new boss battles against a mountain-dwelling giant, an ice wizard, Sheriff Winchester, a cowboy who just…
After talking about all the unfairly delicious-looking foods in games last week, it’s probably best to step away from things like treats and items for a bit. Instead, how about something both gamers and in-game characters can enjoy? Something like say, cute mascot characters? There’s a reason mascots are still around in both the real…
Up this week: Psychonauts 2 – Raz and the gang are back in this mind-bending sequel to the original Psychonauts, and we are ready for it! Conker’s Bad Fur Day – we travel through a very bad day in the life of a red squirrel in this classic 3D platformer. Modern Tales: Age of Invention…
Merry #Listmas! What better way to kick off another blogging holiday season than with a topic that is perfectly delicious – food and drink! While some virtual fare is best left to its own virtual world, there’s no denying that video game food has quite the avid following these days. Between sites, channels, and physical…
The newest collaboration for Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown goes live today, and this time it’s crossing-over with Sega’s Yakuza series. As of today, December 8, fans can enjoy a bunch of new costumes and customization items inspired by Kiryu and his buddies in the Yakuza games. Check out some of it in the trailer…
Well, this is most assuredly the tastiest week Virtual Bastion has had in a long time. It’s now the Duck’s turn to write about just a handful of the many video game foods I’d like to try. I’ve narrowed it down to several sections, Sides, Meals, and Desserts, with three entries each. Because without some…
After roughly a 3-year wait, the second chapter of Deltarune has finally been released (and for free, no less!). Considering the long time period between both chapters, I have to admit that I don’t remember Chapter 1 super well, but I can’t shake the feeling that Chapter 2 is even better. The game might not…
