Aside from my normal rotation of gaming-adjacent YouTube subs that I keep tabs on a few times a week, lately, my feed has been full of anything but modern video games – hardware mods, console restorations, little-known tidbits about m...

If you had a thousand bottles of beer on your wall, and every day since Sea of Thieves launched, you took a bottle down and passed it around, you would now have zero bottles of beer on the wall. If Vanessa Carlton started walking on the da...

In an end-of-year video, Rare shared some impressive figures about Sea of Thieves' ongoing growth – over 11 million people played the game in 2020 – and spoke about its shift to a battle pass model. In 2021, Sea of Thieves is m...

Sea of Thieves might not be your first order of business on Xbox Series X/S, but the next time you're in the mood for swashbuckling, you'll benefit from some noticeable visual and performance gains. As confirmed by Rare today, Sea of Thieve...

In the...oh I want to say, hundreds of hours I played and replayed Donkey Kong Country 2, I never gave its subtitle a second thought. "Diddy Kong's Quest." Yeah, that sounds right. Perfect actually. No one corrected me. Not my cousin t...

I wasted 92 seconds watching this animated interview, convinced that Zitz, Pimple, and Rash were gonna beat the living hell out of Xbox's Major Nelson. Through straight-faced questions (a missed opportunity to get weirder with it), Ma...

Slowly but surely, Rare's old games and characters are getting more nods in Sea of Thieves. The latest cosmetic item, inspired by Battletoads, is a little different – it's a reward for playing the new game (which is out tomorrow, Augu...

The Turbo Tunnel was the end of the road for most Battletoads players. The infamous bike stage -- only the third level in the game -- was so difficult that most people never progressed past it. It was like running into a brick wall bot...

Time is running out to get a feel for Battletoads. It releases in eight days, and the pre-launch opinions seems to be evenly and passionately split. The release date trailer didn't do much to change that. Maybe this slightly-in-depth comme...

This is bound to be divisive no matter which way you slice it. Battletoads finally has a release date. Microsoft teased a revival for years before formally unveiling a new Battletoads at E3 2018. Jordan went hands-on with a demo ...

The next Sea of Thieves update belongs on the cover of the cheesiest '80s metal album. Get ready to melt some faces -- not through the sickest of guitar riffs but through actual hot hot heat. The Ashen Winds update is live and it introduce...

During today's Xbox Games Showcase, legendary developer Rare showcased a new look at its naturalistic adventure game, Everwild, which is currently in production at the British developer for PC and Xbox Series X.While nothing was shown in re...

It's all high waters and deep player counts for Sea of Thieves. That's probably a good sign when you're trying to keep a giant ship afloat. Xbox recently revealed that Sea of Thieves has surpassed 15 million looting, plundering buccane...

If I could get away with this whole post just being the mind-blown emoji or the meme of the guy looking through time and space, I would. But, I owe it to you to act like all the information isn't up there in the headline. Eurogamer publishe...

Soon, PC players won't have to go through the Windows 10 store for Sea of Thieves. Rare is releasing the Steam version of its multiplayer-centric sailing adventure game on June 3, 2020, for $39.99. Unfortunately (and kind of understandably...

Playtonic Games has had a good run so far. After a very successful Kickstarter for Yooka-Laylee, they also released their second game, Impossible Lair, which had a better reception with a more pared-down platformer approach. They seeme...

Whenever a major storm makes headlines, I'm bound to run across entirely too much footage of stomach-turning airplane landings, and I just can't with that, you know? Storm Ciara is no exception. The UK has been battling harsh winds, and ove...

After an explosive launch, Sea of Thieves could have easily fizzed out, but it just hasn't. The open-ended seafaring co-op adventure game delighted many of us at launch despite complaints about a lack of content, and while Rare's post-launc...

Donkey Kong Country means a hell of a lot to me. I remember each and every person I introduced it to, and two and a half decades later, several of them are still platforming fans because of that game. I have just as many fond memories playi...

It wouldn't be an Xbox live stream without a quick word from Rare about Sea of Thieves. During today's X019 broadcast, the developer showed The Seabound Soul, a new narrative-focused content update. The latest free Tall Tale mission has to...
