As video games grew more complex in the 16-bit era, we started to see game guides becoming more popular. There were companies like Squaresoft that profited from selling guides for their RPGs (like the Final Fantasy series), and it’s often been thought that they included some secrets that were impossible to work out on your own, just to sell more guides. It turns out that game guides were incredibly popular in Japan during the 8-bit era, even though games were far simpler, as a guide for the original Super Mario Bros....

Tchia is one of those games where a 30-second trailer can completely sell you. An open world where you glide around like in Breath of the Wild and can possess any animal you come across? Who wouldn’t want that? The game is set to release within the next few months, and I got to take a crack at a preview build showcasing an early part of the adventure. It’s definitely a relaxing, meditative experience with a bit more to it than I previously imagined....

Where would we be without YouTube? In 2019, religiously watching YouTube videos from popular vloggers is just as big a form of entertainment as religiously watching television shows. There are lifestyle vlogs, makeup tutorials, conspiracy documentaries (looking at you, Shane Dawson), and, of course, gaming videos. Gamers have become increasingly popular in the YouTube realm in the past decade, especially with the introduction of streaming service Twitch in 2011. Some YouTube gamers, such as PewDiePie, are among a list of YouTubers with the most subscribers ever....

Even though their name might not always appear in each entry of this list, some of their partner companies like Omega Force or Team Ninja will be counted as well. We have some other notes for this article as well. We listed these games as they appear on Metacritic from the bottom to the top....
Few of Magic: The Gathering’s color identities are as aggressive and focused on dealing damage as the black and red pairing, Rakdos. Often dealing large sums of damage to every player (including themselves), Rakdos decks are often some of the most offense-oriented in the game, resulting in them being rather polarizing for players. Due to its massive card pool it has amassed over Magic’s history, players have numerous viable options to choose from when constructing a Commander deck....
Brooklyn Nine-Nine gave us a real scare there. After Fox declined to renew the show for a sixth season, fans had to wait and excruciating 31 hours for NBC to pick up the show and bring it back home where it’s always belonged. That 31 hours felt like a lifetime. When the show finally returned, on its new home, it delivered the laughs and heart that fans of the highly-quotable ensemble comedy went out of their way to save....

This article comes from Den of Geek UK. You know how some buildings have secret thirteenth floors, closed off for reasons of superstition? Dollhouse has a secret 13th episode. On the 10th anniversary of its debut, let’s crack open the vault and look at “Epitaph One,” one of the most unusual hours of network television ever produced.

The biggest esports tournament of the year is underway and upsets are already happening. The International Dota 2 Tournament (TI) is one of esports’ crown jewels. Since its founding in 2010, the tournament has grown from a small niche event to the biggest esports event in the world, at least in terms of prize pool.
