Is Pokemon Pokopia Worth the Hype? | REVIEW (opens the original)
Read excerpt
🎮 Is Pokemon Pokopia worth the hype? Three of us walked in expecting not to like this game. Here's our honest review of Game Freak's cozy sim. Austin, Kelsey, Steven and Anthony sat down for a full spoiler-free review and then went deep into spoilers. We get into why a game built out of Minecraft, Animal Crossing and Pokemon somehow won over the people on this panel who don't much care for any of the three — and the one design choice that makes it feel completely different from Animal Crossing w
GTA 6 Leak: Is Cyberleek Friend or Foe? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
🎮 The GTA 6 leak is the funniest thing to happen in gaming this year — and Rockstar walked straight into it.Rockstar said skipping physical copies was how they'd keep the game from leaking. Three months out from launch, a figure calling himself Cyberleek is streaming it anyway. We get into who he actually is, what he's demanding, the one stunt on stream that convinced everybody the footage was real, and why an anti-leak strategy turned into the reason this whole thing blew up.We also dig into wh

The harsh vocals Ross Jennings leans all the way into are Austin's least favorite part of the EP and St
Is Diablo 4 Worth Playing in 2026? | Lord of Hatred Review (opens the original)
Read excerpt
🎮 Diablo 4 finally has an ending — and after 25 years with this franchise, we think Lord of Hatred sticks the landing. Jack and Alex are the two lifelong Blizzard fans on the panel, so they sat down for a full review of Diablo 4 and the DLC that closes out the saga: spoiler-free thoughts and scores first, then a full spoiler discussion.We start with a Diablo lore primer — angels, demons, and the three Prime Evils — because Mephisto being the Lord of Hatred is the whole point of this one. Then th
Why We Walked Away From Diablo 3 | 25 Years of Diablo (opens the original)
Read excerpt
🎮 Diablo 3 is where Blizzard lost us. Jack and Alex both started on Diablo 2 in the early 2000s, and before reviewing Diablo 4 they went back 25 years to tell the whole story: how Blizzard lost the Diablo fanbase, and how it slowly earned it back.We get into what Diablo 2 actually was for us: a year straight of one character, and PKing — duelling strangers and stealing gold that was completely worthless, purely as a declaration of "I'm better." Then Diablo 3 arrived, and it went wrong in almost
