You ever write a three-page review for an energy supplement?

In early May 2024, 5-hour ENERGY (hereto after shown as 5-hour Energy) released a new Gamer Shot line of energy drink supplements. We got some news about it because this is a video game website that posts video game related news. That is how these things work. These 5-hour Energy Gamer Shots are available in three flavors: Pineapple Charge, Rocket Raspberry, and Apple Bash. Unless things have suddenly changed in the fe...
 

Band Together in Terror: The Outlast Trials Review

The Outlast Trials proves that survival horror can be more fun with friends.

The Outlast Trials is a four-player PvE game taking place in the Cold War era. The game's opening moments and lore paint a gruesome and wicked scene that will be familiar to series veterans but disquieting to those new to the Outlast universe. Players work their way through a series of experiments, each of which plays out on various large maps like a police station, a courthouse, a carnival, and more. The g...

TikTok Ban Signed Into Law by President Biden

Owner ByteDance has 270 days to sell off TikTok.

On April 24, President Joe Biden signed a foreign aid package that also included a bill that could ban TikTok in the United States. This ban can only be averted if the China-based company that owns TikTok, ByteDance, sells off the popular social media app before the 270 day time limit is up.

This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...
 

Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

From announcing a $130 edition of Star Wars Outlaws to pulling game licenses from those that bought The Crew, Ubisoft sure is on a roll this week.

  • Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Trailer Features Clinton, Bush Sr., Thatcher, Powell, and Saddam Hussein

    It's a party and everybody is invited!

    Sure, the initial marketing push for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was quite lame and, as some have said, "very cringe." This new trailer, though? This new trailer actually seems pretty damn good. At the very least, it's extremely intriguing.

    Hey, you remember the Gulf War? You know, Desert Storm? Iraq? Kuwait? If you're a regular of the site, I think you're old enough to remember the Gulf War, or at least remember some things...

    Deceive Inc.'s World's Finest Update Available Now

    That's the name of the update, not necessarily an indication of quality.

    This update is out now for all available platforms (PC, PS5, Series X) and adds in a new veteran spy, Vigil. Vigil is "a cunning professional who...

    Sorry but You Cannot Will Your Steam Account to Someone when you Die

    Where there's a will, there's a way.

    Apparently the big news today is word that once you die, you cannot will your Steam account to someone else. If you couldn't already tell, today is a holiday here in the States, which means it's a slow news day. It's a very slow news day.

    This idea of willing your Steam account to someone when you inevitably pass into an eternity of absolute nothingness was brought up by a ResetEra user, delete12345. This person had asked Steam Support...

  • Neil Druckmann Says Next Naughty Dog Game 'Could Redefine Mainstream Perceptions of Gaming' (UPDATED)

    Whatever that means.

    Update: Neil Druckmann took to Threads to clarify the statement that was shown in the interview. Druckmann's full response to the question posed by the interviewer was much longer and contains quite a bit more context than simply "it could redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming." Reading through Druckmann's full response here shows that there is a lot more nuanced information not included in the original article's quote. The line about how Naughty Dog's next ...
