Grass-types are quite popular among players. They are one of the three starter options, so about one third of the players get one at the beginning of their journey. Grass-Types are not exactly known to be the strongest in defense and offense, but they are skilled in status conditions and with healing themselves. However, not every trainer picks their team based on their combat efficiency. Some do it for the designs, and Grass-types have some lovely designs based on bugs, plants, and more....

Perhaps one of the most well-known franchises Nintendo has ever created, Mario Kart has been pitting friends and family against each other for nearly 30 years. As if attempting to keep the sweat from dripping down one’s face while trying to stay on the track in Rainbow Road wasn’t enough, these games have always included a variety of items that add extra variables to each race. These items can either give a bottom-placed player the comeback they needed to move up or give that middle racer the chance to finally take the lead....

All of the big games of 2020 are finally out on the Nintendo Switch. It’s now time to look forward to a new year which will hopefully bring a fresh crop of games to ease the pain of this continued quarantine. 2021 might even be the year Nintendo finally unveils their next console and/or at least that rumored upgrade for Switch. Anyway, the first three months don’t have a lot of AAA titles to rival that of this year’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons or Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity....

It’s very difficult to choose the cutest Water-type Pokémon because there are so many of them. From Pokémon that look like otters to ones that look like penguins, Water-types have run the gamut of adorable animals, creatures, and much more.

These traits lend themselves to a ton of Water-type Pokémon that are cute as heck when they splash around at the beach or blow bubbles at their enemies....

Recently, the failed battle royale game The Culling announced that it would be returning, though it faced immediate criticism upon revealing that the game featured what can be described, at best, as a predatory monetization system, equally as egregious as some mobile games. One of The Culling’s developers has since revealed more information about the new system, changes that are being made, and why the developers feel it’s necessary. Xaviant Director of Operations Josh Van Veld opened up about The Culling’s new monetization system in an interview with PC Gamer, shedding a bit more light on the situation....

Speaking with press, associate creative director for The Division Julian Gerighty downplays any political overtones present in the game, calling it an ’entertainment product'. Especially in the wake of recent beta tests, there’s plenty of hype surrounding Ubisoft’s sprawling online RPG The Division.

As many gaming fans might attest, Bethesda’s confirmation of The Elder Scrolls 6 during its E3 2018 press conference was one of the biggest surprise games at the show, as many had expected the company to announce it next year at the earliest. Of course, the forthcoming fantasy-RPG sequel is still a long ways away from officially releasing, and TES6 could wind up being a release for the next generation of gaming hardware....

It’s no secret at this point: Warner Bros’ upcoming Flash movie will not only be a showcase for Ezra Miller’s speedy Barry Allen but for a few other titans of the DC universe. As previously reported, the multiverse-spanning adventure will introduce the DCEU’s very own Supergirl, played by Sasha Calle, as well as see the return of both Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as Batman. Yeah, it’s a very big movie — perhaps the most consequential DC big-screen event since 2017’s Justice League brought the world’s greatest heroes together for the first time....

It just about sums up the series. Pot is legal now, and all over the San Francisco neighborhood. It still costs money, but now it makes money, and capital means licensing, and licenses are for dogs. The characters at the center of The Freak Brother have mange, scratch themselves on rugs, but they have a cat, who Bogarts every joint....

Star Citizen is going to go one of two ways: either it’s going to become the biggest space simulation the world has ever seen, or it’ll collapse like a house of cards, its death a warning to overhyped gamers and developers without a plan. That said, there’s no denying that for now at least, Star Citizen is a huge game. Cloud Imperium has managed to raise an enormous amount of cash and there are over 2....

Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness is a clunky, sometimes beautiful mess, navigating between some exciting highs and many disappointing lows to fall short of its promise. The wait for a new Star Ocean game has been a long one for fans of the long-running JRPG series.
