I apologize in advance for this, but: Introducing Drillposting
The study of philosophy is powerful because you can map its insights onto any aspect of life today, just as you could a hundred or a thousand years ago. French philosopher Descartes, for example, pioneered the theory of mind-body dualism, writing “I have a clear and distinct idea of myself, in so far as I…
Shoot the tires, please
Humvees are a nasty threat in Wardogs. They’re fast, have thick enough armor to withstand multiple RPGs, and usually come with a machinegun nest that can easily mow down a squad of infantry in a single reload. But they have a pretty huge weakness that, two weeks in, many players in my matches are unaware…
The Tools Behind Modern CS2 Skin Trading
CS2 skin trading has grown far beyond sending offers directly between Steam friends. Traders now have tools for checking prices across different markets, inspecting individual skins, managing inventories, calculating trade-ups, and automating exchanges. Some are useful when researching a single item, while others become more important when an inventory grows. Knowing what each tool actually…
Should You Rebirth Now or Keep Your Brainrots in Steal a Brainrot?
Rebirth is one of the biggest progression decisions in Steal a Brainrot. You spend time building income and collecting Brainrots, only to reach a point where the game asks you to reset part of that progress in exchange for permanent benefits. That can make Rebirth feel like a loss, especially when your base contains Brainrots…

From Arcade Tokens to Daily Rewards: How Free Play Became Part of Gaming
Free play feels thoroughly modern. A phone game hands out coins for opening the app, a console service rewards a completed mission, and another title offers a free starting balance. Yet game makers were experimenting with ways to remove the price of one more attempt long before smartphones existed. When a Credit Meant Another Game…
Valorant Has Thirteen Maps and About Three Hundred Names to Learn
The hardest part of picking up Valorant is not the shooting. It is that everyone in the lobby is speaking a language nobody offers to teach you. Calls arrive at speed and in fragments. Heaven, hookah, tree, generator, elbow, ropes, and if you cannot place them instantly the information is useless by the time you…
Sometimes it’s fun to hit a scorpion with a club for 38 seconds
Like many others who carry the spiritual stain of prior MMO contact, I’ve been spending some time in the WoW: Forever beta. After piloting a freshly-minted orc through the introductory quests in the Valley of Trials, I emerged into the wider Durotar scrubland where I soon entered into combat with a hostile scorpion that had…
Opinion: I Think I’m Missing Something About Stellar Blade On Switch 2
Not quite landing. I’ve been hearing a lot of hype around Stellar Blade – that is when fans haven’t been lamenting the sequel’s awful AI music video the creators decided was a good idea. I’d heard it was Bayonetta meets Dark Souls, with flashy, acrobatic movement, and carefully considered combat with tight timings. And considering…
