It’s the debut of Amber’s Unboxing Series!

[Accompanying music byAlphadeus] When I first heard aboutLoot Crate, I didn’t think it would take off. A company sends you random stuff once a month? For someone like me, that’s a nightmare. The inventory box of my life is already completely full. Any time I get something new, I have to toss something out to make space. The last thing I want in life is another random drop to test my decision making skills....

Let’s watch a bunch of people beat a bunch of games with impeccable speed and skill. It’ll be fun, I promise! The full schedule is up here, and it’s absolutely worth consulting....

Live Show: Saturday Morning Hangover gets cut off

The title of this post is a very subtle joke, expertly crafted. Time once again for the Hangover! Every Saturday morning, I am joined by Jordan Devore and the endlessly charming Katrina in an effort to kickstart everybody’s weekend back into gear after those shame-filled, overeager nights that so frequently start them. As usual, we’ll be playing the week’s new releases on the Xbox Live Indie Games service (plus a few from the week prior, since we were away for GDC)....

Nintendo should really reconsider making Super Mario Bros. 35 a limited release

It’s just too much fun for a limited time I brought my Switch with me to bed last night. No, it wasn’t to check on myAnimal Crossingvillagers I haven’t visited in over a month… It was to maliciously wreck 34 other players inSuper Mario Bros. 35by outlasting them and sending as many hammer brothers their way as I possibly could. Now that’s what I call a fun time under the sheets!...

Old FuncoLand employee training video is just horrid

Long before GameStop swallowed up most of its major competitors, there was FuncoLand. The first major videogame chain store of its kind, FuncoLand offered plenty of used games for all consoles. Unbeknownst to us all until now, FuncoLand employees were horribly mistreated as they were forced to watch this disgusting employee training video. As brain hurting as this video is, I can’t help but remember when I first started working in videogame retail....

Ooblets is finally getting a full release after six years in development

The wait is finally over Oobletsis one of those games that I’ve been following since it was initially announced all the way back in 2016, and after all this time, it’s finally getting a full release. The idea behindOobletsis that it’s basicallyStardew ValleymeetsPokémon, where players will tend to their farm but also collect and take care of little creatures called Ooblets. It’s yet another game that mixes two of my favorite genres, and the game’s bright colors, soothing music, and chill gameplay are likely going to make for one of the most relaxing gaming experiences of the year....

Rule Facebook from Game of Thrones Ascent

Game of Thrones Ascentis a Facebook game, and I know that many of you are about to stop reading as a result. Maybe the fact that it doesn’t have an energy meter limiting how much you can do will make you interested again. It’s based on the popular books and TV show, so the writing is decent and it does have the same atmosphere, which should be pleasing to fans of the series....
