EVERYTHING IS AWESOME… for a second time WhenThe LEGO Moviecame out everyone was rolling their eyes at it and thinking it would suck as a weird attempt at a cash grab for kids. Well, everybody who hadn’t played a LEGO video game, that is. Anyone who had was already aware of the fantastic writing and creativity that LEGO and WB had put into those games so it came as little surprise when the movie was fantastic, and made lots of money and then generated a sequel, which, as of today, we know is calledThe LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part....

Best of 2012 Gaming has come a long way from the simple text-based-entry days. Now the graphics engine of a game is as important as the story itself, with each new game attempting to push its visuals above the rest. It’s not enough to just be the most realistic-looking game anymore though. Now it’s about creating a certain mood, a certain feeling in order to cast a player into a believable world....

I still watch reruns…I’m an adult Some wonderful individual has re-created the entire intro from the classicScooby-Doocartoon series inGrand Theft Auto V. It’s not perfect, but man some of these shots are even funnier inGTA‘s engine, and you gotta love that Chop model. Videos like this andthe Iron Man onemake me want to get back into the PC version. Say what you will aboutGTA V, but I enjoyed it immensely, and felt like it was an improvement uponIVin every way....

Today’s Spelunky Challenge! I liked the original title “How Jordan and Conrad got their groove back” better, but that couldn’t fit within our system’s headline character limit. Drat!

In addition to the debut of a new microphone, this footage captures my first time successfully clearing hell inSpelunky....

People enjoy Warhammer 40K for a number of reasons. The stories and lore, the aesthetics of the models, or even just for the video games. Many players, however, are out to win tabletop battles. And for that, you’ll need a strong army. Below is a list of 10Warhammer 40Karmies that have over a 50% win rate according to official statistics. So for one reason or another, they’re pretty good.

We’re living in a new age of amazing horror When it comes to horror movies, it’s very hard to impress me. I’m not saying that I’m a horror movie snob, but at a certain point, horror just wasn’t scary anymore. I wasn’t being unsettled by a gruesome monster, or unnerved at a creepy hallway, or dreaded seeing a character walk into an obvious scare. I just became numb to what horror traditionally was....

They are drops you get after defeating certain legendary bosses inElden Ring.Oftentimes, they’re tied to either the main story, side quests, or something pivotal to the story (but not always required to hit the credits)....

Will any of them make the jump to Switch? After a blistering hot summer that extended well into the month of September, temperatures are starting to cool in my little town as autumn is finally rearing its head. Leaves on the trees in the park across the street are beginning to change colors, I can’t keep my window open at night unless I want to freeze, and pumpkin-spiced foods have started showing up in bulk at all the bakeries in town....
