I was so taken aback that I said “Holy Sh*t!” – He immediately took me aside and asked me not to post the video, as it would be inappropriate for children. We ended up posting it anyway, with my swear bleeped out, and it was a cute, hopefully inoffensive bit of fun....

Rock out with… well, you know Namco Bandai’s vampiric RPGCode Veinhas been on the burner for quite some time now, but is edging nearer to the home stretch and its September release date. This week at Anime Expo, the publisher released the opening cinematic for the ultra-dramatic looking adventure game.

Where’s our Retro Game Challenge 2!? I’m still extremely sore thatRetro Game Challenge 2was never localized. Theoriginal game, based off the brilliant Japanese “Let’s Play before Let’s Plays were a thing” TV programGame Center CX, was a retronaut’s dream — a collection of old-school, NES-styled parodies played from the perspective of a typical 80s gamer child. XSEED made the effort to localize this gem, but too few people bought it to make localizing the sequel a worthy endeavor....

Each season ofDiablo 4adds new mechanics and features, but also reworks a lot of the classes. As such, some are better than others each season for leveling, farming, and end-game content. We’ve put together thisDiablo 4Season 4 Tier List to highlight the best overall builds inDiablo 4Season 4 Loot Reborn. Diablo 4Season 4 Class Tier List Season 4 has brought a lot of itemization changes which in turn has really shaken up the meta across the board when it comes to the best classes and builds for both leveling and end-game....

Diablo 4‘sDungeoneers seem pretty united in the demand for Blizzard to add an LFG system. Fans over on theDiablosubreddithave made their voices heard with over 280 upvotes in favor of the game adding some sort of “looking for group” option....
