This past weekend, Sega held a closed network test for their upcoming kart racer Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds on PlayStation 5. To say that I had fun would be an understatement. For the three days that the beta was online, my living room sounded like an arcade — character one-liners being…
Raid Hour (also referred to as Legendary Raid Hour) started as an experiment in March 2019. Initially called Legendary Lunch Hour, Niantic set aside an hour on Wednesdays for Pokémon GO Trainers to find 5-Star (Legendary) Raids easier by increasing the appearance rates. After further testing, Raid Hour was renamed…

It wasn’t hard to guess that this week’s Smash Blog music could come from the wild world of Animal Crossing. Isabelle’s made her debut as a fighter, and it looks like she’s brought a little something from one of the series’ side games (and it’s not amiibo Festival!) …

I grew up with a healthy number of classic game franchises, but there are some that I didn’t really get into or understand until relatively recently. Mega Man is one of them — I’ve played the first two on NES, but that’s the extent to which I’m familiar with the…
Pre-order Sega Genesis Classics for Nintendo Switch for $29.99 at GameStop. Well, this is a bit of a surprise. All the way back in April Sega confirmed two Sega collections. One, “Sega Genesis/Mega Drive Classics”, would be heading to PS4 and Xbox One, while the other, “Sega Ages”, would be…

There’re quite a few Assist Trophies that people wish were playable in Smash, and this hero’s ranked amongst them even before his debut. A recurring face in plenty of Indie hits and one of the finest, modern mascots in gaming, Shovel Knight is here to strike the earth and lend…
Last week’s Nintendo Direct announced several Final Fantasy games but one of the more imminent releases is World of Final Fantasy Maxima, set for its Switch debut on November 6th. The game is an enhanced version of a title that has already released for PS4, Vita and PC, with added…
