    G2A Offers to Pay Media Outlets to Run Pre-Written Defense Article

    Add it to the list.

    Third-party gray market key reseller, G2A, has been under increased fire the past week. Sure, it's had its fair share of accusations and criticisms slung its way over the years, but nothing quite like what we've seen in the past week. Today, an email sent from G2A to a handful of website owners, attempted to manipulate the public image of the company in an incredibly scummy way.

    Should have called it Detective Digimon.

    Did you know that Digimon are digital monsters? Did you know that Digimon are the champions? It's true, the late 90s told me and I believe the 90s. Apparently, Digimon are also experts when it comes to being detectives of a sort. That's probably why they are the star of a new game that is full of mysteries and apparently turn-based battles.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC Hinted in Social Club Source Code

    Another day, another hint.

    If you wanted yet another hint that Rockstar is probably going to bring Red Dead Redemption 2 to the PC, well, you got it. It seems as though a PC release of the game is more a matter of "when" and less a matter of "if" at this point.

    Twitter user JakoMako51 passed along a little discovery earlier today. When browsing through the source code on the Rockstar Social Club, they noticed a new listing for PC "Accomplishments"...

    While this update may not fix all of the top issues introduced in that last patch, it does tackle a few of them. It must be stated that today's update does not address the issue of invisible character models. This issue, introduced in the last update, is still...
