2017 Games of the Colefacekilla – The List
2017 was one hell of a year for video games. It seemed like the release schedule was non-stop. There were days of multiple heavy hitting games being released all the while I was still playing a ton of Rocket League weekly. It’s been a year of playing a lot of great games, but with other…

2017 Games of the Coop – The List
It’s no secret that 2017 made history. More good games were released than we could realistically play.

Gaming Lifestyle: Dog is my Co-pilot
Perhaps moreso than any other medium of art, gaming can mean so many things.

Simple Question: Nintendo Has Old Games
We’re light on virtual console news for the Nintendo Switch, and the NES Classic just got discontinued. I think it’s fair to be a bit confused as to what Nintendo’s ideas are for distributing its back catalog. How should Nintendo sell its old games and what is your dark horse pick for the 30th game…
