    Review: BetaNOX Ultimate Energy Drink (Berry Lemon Blast and Citrus Blast)

    How do I play this?

    I like energy drinks. I started to get a SoBe Citrus Energy every so often back in college. On a whim I then tried a SoBe No Fear. Hey, I liked it! So then I bought more of them. At the time, I did not drink coffee, and I tried to stay away from soft drinks while I had classes during the day. From there I branched out, trying to discover myself broaden my horizons to see what other energy drinks I may enjoy. I found out that Red Bull was "okay" but ...

  • Pete Hines Disturbed that "Wolfenstein Can be Seen as a Controversial Political Statement"

    Last night, the Wolfenstein II Twitter account would be so brazen as to say "Make America Nazi-Free Again" in a tweet that included a short, new trailer along with the hashtag of #NoMoreNazis. A bunch of Nazis and Nazi sympathizers took offense to the tweet, claiming that they are being attacked by the Wolfenstein II marketing. They feel as though Bethesda and Machine Games are making games, specifically Wolfenstein II, too political. Imagine, Wolfenstein, a franchise that has been ar...

    But yeah, cheaters! They suck. Epic knows this. Fortnite community person, Nathan Mooney, explains what's going to happen with Fortnite Battle Royale anti-cheat.

    HITMAN Team Announces Upcoming Announcement (Not Season 2)

    It's like everyone these days is just trying to ape a page from my playbook, I swear. In the latest "announcement of an announcement" series, Io-Interactive announced that they will have something to announce later this month for HITMAN.

    Sadly, their pre-announcement announcement says that what they're announcing isn't "Season 2" for HITMAN. Cue the sad music now.

  • Poll: Are You a Fan of Paying More to Play Early?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Get that Premium Edition and play three days early!

    Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.

    Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...
    I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!

    I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.
