What Should Animal Crossing Do Next?

With Switch 2 finally revealed, I find my thoughts once again drifting towards one of the biggest games of the current Switch: Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Nintendo did a great many things right with that one, so many that the game was the perfect thing to get many gaming fans through the lockdown periods of…

[Revisited] Fallout 4’s DLC Changed My Opinion on Fallout 4

Over in the world of Starfield, I recently began playing its lone DLC, Shattered Space. And, y’know what? It’s not half bad. In fact, it might even be pretty good. I’m still to early in it to say for sure, but so far, I’m liking the setting, the characters, and the main mission at-hand. It’s…

It turns out that just squeaking out a few wins isn’t…

Looks Like Activision Got Caught Using Al Content Again

Having never been a real fan of Call of Duty, I cannot personally speak to how recent entries in the series stack up to their predecessors. If the feedback from actual players is any indication, however, then it would seem that modern CoD games are no substitute for those of console generations past. Quality appears…
