(Image credit: Blizzard) Alright, here’s the problem—I’m not sure this really works for its intended purpose. Extra Context: IC/OOC When you’re out of character (OOC), you’re playing the game normally. If you need to say something OOC while you’re roleplaying, you might use brackets, ((like this)) [or this]. When you’re in character (IC), you’re roleplaying,…
I have my own separate issues with the Steam marketplace and points shop, but I can’t lie: I love collecting themes that make my Steam profile look like a relic of the early 2000s. It’s not quite as satisfying as the complex Dragon Ball Z profiles I styled back in the day on Neopets or…

In another fang-tastic interview from Dongled. Given its legacy in gaming, you’d be forgiven for thinking we know pretty much all there is to know about the Making Of the original NES Castlevania (known as Akumajō Dracula in Japan) by now.

“The biggest milestone for me was the first movie”. We all know Sonic has gone through some highs and lows over the years, but according to head honcho Takashi Iizuka, Sega had gotten to the point where it wanted to cancel the entire franchise. As reported by One More Game (thanks, Time Extension), this came…
I realize it’s poor form of me, but I can’t mind my own business, and I’m about to yuck some of y’all’s yum. Why does every game need a series of mods turning their respective worlds into smooth-faced dystopias? It’s like there’s an unwritten rule somewhere that the first batch of fanmade downloads in every…

It’s a tornado-themed doomsday survival scenario where you and seven friends get tossed around by violent twisters until you eventually repair your van and escape or get engulfed by an EF5. It fills me with…
Karnov’s Revenge! Magical Drop! Street Hoop! Spinmaster! While the disappointment of knowing the Neo Geo AES+ won’t arrive until late next year still stings, the system got plenty of coverage at this year’s Tokyo Game Show, along with the welcome announcement that Zero Wing is coming to the platform. We now know four other releases…
