    TL;DR: A Microsoft Store listing briefly revealed unannounced details of “Halo: Campaign Evolved,” described as a remake of Halo: Combat Evolved with added prequel missions set before Alpha Halo, updated gameplay features like vehicle hijacking, revised character models, and expanded enemy types...

    Goku as a Hokage

    This is entirely plausible. Which would be the problem.

    Goku as a Hokage

    Honestly, I think Goku could make a solid Hokage… at least until he inevitably challenges every other village to a giant tournament “for training purposes.” That’s about the point where everything falls apart and the paperwork in his office starts stacking up like a filler arc. He’d keep the...

    Valve's Steam Deck Discussion Thread

    I had a feeling the price would go up too, but I definitely wasn’t expecting it to jump by around $300. That’s a lot more than I had in mind. At that point, you start comparing it to full desktops/laptops or other handhelds instead of just the original Deck. I’m sure Valve has its reasons, but...

    A Mario bowling game?

    Now that I’m reading through this, I’m honestly surprised a Mario bowling game doesn’t already exist. After the huge push behind Wii Sports and how insanely popular Wii bowling was, you’d think Nintendo would have jumped on a fully featured Mario version at some point. Even Mario Tennis and the...

    Top Reasons Why PC Gaming Continues to Grow Worldwide

    I think the OP covered most of the big pros of PC gaming, but one thing that’s really underrated is accessibility; not in the disability‑access sense, but in the “how easy is it for people to actually start gaming?” sense. Mobile gaming exploded because everyone already has a phone that can run...

    Multi Subnautica 2 Hits 1M Sales in Under an Hour, Tops Steam Charts

    TL;DR: Subnautica 2 exploded out of Early Access, surpassing 1 million sales in under an hour and hitting nearly 470,000 concurrent Steam players—far outpacing previous entries and even topping major titles on the platform. The massive launch reflects years of built-up demand for the franchise...

    Battleship

    I enjoyed Battleship a lot when I was younger, too. I eventually got the version with the sound effects, and I remember thinking it was the coolest thing ever; it made the whole game feel so much more intense. Seeing everyone mention Battleship just brings all that nostalgia back. It’s funny...

    Scalpers bought all Steam Controllers

    Honestly, I feel like backordering would solve a huge chunk of the scalper problem. When everything sells out instantly, it just creates panic buying and gives scalpers all the leverage. If companies simply allowed unlimited backorders, there’s nothing for scalpers to “corner”; people could just...

    Xbox SX Where are all the games?

    Honestly, the whole situation with the remake just feels like it’s flying under the radar, and not in a good way. They’re already splitting up the teams for whatever the next Halo ends up being, which doesn’t inspire much confidence when even the current project isn’t getting the full weight of...

    Xbox SX Where are all the games?

    Sadly, a lot of the problem seems to be that the corporate machine behind Microsoft and Game Pass just hasn’t handled the passion side of gaming very well. They bought a ton of studios, but most of them weren’t delivering hit games even before the acquisitions, and after joining Xbox, nothing...

    Last Game Played

    Was playing some Arknights: Endfield. I still don't know how I feel about the game.

    Multi Metro 2039

    I’ve always liked the Metro series, but I’ve never actually sat down and played through any of them fully. It’s always been bits and pieces before I drifted off to something else. Metro 2039 looks really good, though a part of me wishes the series had some kind of co‑op option; the world feels...

    How do you feel about gear actually changing the way you move and fight?

    I do like the idea in theory, but it’s rarely done in a way that actually feels real or plays well. Weight is incredibly hard to convey through a controller, and even harder on a mouse and keyboard. A lot of games just slow the player down for “heavy armor,” and that never really feels like...
