The Sims 4 Listens to Players, Finally, Sort Of

Two months following a Change.org petition requesting a color wheel for skin tones in The Sims 4 reached 87,604 signatures, Executive Producer Lyndsay Pearson posted a roughly two-minute-long video to her Twitter account. The recorded statement — and transcript subsequently posted to…

The Inner World Added To Prime Gaming – August 2020

My face was a blank page last week, it was every one of those gifs you find of Drew Scanlon blinking or Bernard Black doing his taxes. I was both irate and ready to knock a hole through someone’s head like I was Kazuma Kiryu.…

Remnant: From The Ashes & The Alto Collection Free On Epic

I think Carly Simon wrote a song about what I’m about to do. Monday, I wrote about Trüberbrook being added to what is now called Prime Gaming. Tuesday, I spoke about the alleged abuse of those that worked on Aeon Must Die!. Wednesday, I spoke about Halo‘s…

Xbox Series X Releasing with No First-Party Launch Titles?

The Xbox Series X is making for quite the unique launch window, for more reasons than one. To start, with its confirmation of a November release, there still isn’t a set date or price. Now, with the confirmation of Halo: Infinite‘s delay into…

Xbox Series X Coming November: No Date Set

Focus Home Interactive Responds To Aeon Must Die! Allegations

The one thing I’ve found most obnoxious about America is a parallel with gaming. Breakfast cereals are disgusting, filled with more sugar than my morning coffee. One of the many offenders is old Cap’n Crunch, a dirty old man that also hangs…

Trüberbrook Added To Twitch Prime – August 2020

Usually, it is Dark Souls that brings existential dread. Yet doing these every week with the ever prevailing free-to-play, mobile, and battle royale nonsense, I hate Mondays. I’ll hate next Monday as I’ll have to talk about Epic Seven, Big Farm: Mobile Harvest, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Destiny…

PlayStation State of Play – August 2020

I’ve made it no secret that I prefer the single burst of bullshot trailers and blasts of press releases over a few days that normally constitutes E3. It is easier that way. Nonetheless, the somewhat elongated E3 seems to have petered off and…
