Over the last year and -- almost -- a half, Crusader Kings II has grown considerably. What started of as a vast grand strategy game where players could take the reins of a Christian noble dynasty now contains playable Islamic...
Welcome to another edition of Dtoid's Friday Night Fights!
May is a notoriously slow month for videogame releases, which means it's the perfect month to dig out and dust off that old multiplayer game you haven't played in mon...
You're into robots and Team Fortress 2, right? I knew there was a reason why I liked you. The latest major update to the game that will not end (and thank goodness for that!) is the Robotic Boogaloo Update, a one-hundred per...
