Gif Essay: Overwatch Release

I’ll tell you what I’m looking at, Tracer! I’m busy looking for some epic Overwatch content to celebrate the games release today. What’s that?

Overwatch Review

Since it was revealed about 2 years ago, Blizzard’s newest title Overwatch had caught my attention.

Press Start: On MOBA toxicity

I’ve spoken a lot about how toxic the online gaming community can be in past articles. Since the dawn of online gaming, players have been known to show their inner arseholery in the name of competitive spirit. This isn’t so much an observation as it is established fact. However, in recent years things have been […]

However, maybe we shouldn’t get too excited as Space Jam’s director Joe Pytka had some words to say about the sequel. As a word of advice for both James and […]
