Good old Nexus Mods. If I ever need a laugh or a mod that adds replay value to an existing game, I can count on that site to deliver. Animal Crossing's Isabelle is now a part of a recent horror-tinted shooter, just not the one everyone expe...

"Bunny Day" probably wasn't supposed to be a waking nightmare. But if my social feed is anything to go by, then the jolly Easter event appears to be responsible for a lot of anguish on my friends' part. If you too find yourself haunted by s...

The time has come: Final Fantasy VII Remake, which was announced eons ago, is actually coming out. It's true, I finished it! Naturally with a release as monumental as this, people have questions. How long is it? Does it really feel lik...
