Tactical decision. Howdy partners! We are back with another edition of Box Art Brawl. Last week, we matched up a duo of delightful designs for Pikmin on GameCube, though the competition wasn’t even close. The classic North American / European variant walked away with a commanding win, taking 74% and leaving the colourful Japanese design…

From 2000 to 2010, one of the most important studios in videogames was making the kind of games you’d see dismissed off-hand today. If PopCap released Bejeweled out of the blue right now every YouTube comment would say “looks like a shit mobile game,” but instead we live in the reality where PopCap dominated the…
While perusing the sickos-only BG3Builds subreddit, I learned something that shocked me thanks to the helpful comment of user Arx_724, a bit of knowledge that’s been out there in the ether, but was never apparent to this obsessive BG3 power gamer.
