The latest issues of Archie’sSonic the Hedgehoghave heavily focused on the shift in leadership of Sonic’s home of New Mobotropolis over to the evil wizard Ixis Naugus. With a smooth tongue, he was able to take over the throne and convince most of the populace that he serves them, all while secretly attempting to take control of their minds. This plot thread has resulted in many scenes involving the city’s Council of Acorn, an institution which I find hilariously ridiculous....

Today is the 35th anniversary of one of the most influential, genre-defining, and beloved franchises in video game history,Metal Gear.That’s 35 years of crawling around in military bases, dodging spotlights, hiding in the backs of trucks and under boxes, and sitting through seemingly endless codec conversations about what date it is. And it’s been one hell of a journey, I’m sure you’ll agree.

When it’s not actively trying toreset your ability loadouts,Destiny 2: Into The Lightisproving to be a delightfor both veteran players and newcomers alike. One of its best features is the new Attunement functionality, though, which allows you to narrow down your loot pool. As confusing as some ofInto The Light‘s weapon choices may be, I’m hard-pressed to agree that all of the returning weapons are remarkable in their own right. Farming for the best rolls, whether god-tier or not, is bound to grow more and more tiring as we keep coming back to the new Onslaught game mode over and over (and over) again....
