New Critical Role Dungeon Master Brennan Lee Mulligan has been laying the foundations for a truly epic and complex Campaign 4, sowing the seeds of an ambitious plot set in a godless world, sparked by the tragedy of hero and scoundrel Thjazi Fang’s execution. In the first four episodes, we’ve traipsed through the deliciously intricate playground of Dol-Makjar, a city full of political intrigue and dodgy dealings. However, last Thursday night we got to see the first non-Overture episode of Critical Role Campaign 4, and with it the first good look at the world outside Dol-Makjar. Fans followed the Soldiers…

I guess it’s that time of year again already. Nintendo just announced its sales for Black Friday 2025 and they are…not that impressive. Unsurprisingly, the Switch 2 remains full price. But there’s also no discounted Switch bundle in sight, and the slate of Switch games that are on sale for up to $30 off aren’t exactly the cream of the crop. Let’s start with which deals the Nintendo Black Friday 2025 sale does include. First, Samsung MicroSD Express Cards for Switch 2 will be $20 off at select stores starting November 30. Second, a handful of Zelda and Street Fighter…

I’ll be honest: Part of the reason I wanted the Pac-Man Edition Atari 2600 Plus console was because I thought it would look cute in my living room, where I’m trying for a kind of late ’70s look. But having spent several days with Atari’s retro console, it’s a lot more than just a conversation piece. If you’re interested in retro games and ephemera, these new-old consoles are the purest dopamine rush. The yellow Pac-Man 2600 Plus console is fairly petite, especially compared to beefy modern consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series S. Though it’s lightweight, the construction is…

Most people assume that they need to spend over a thousand dollars on a MacBook Air to get a decent laptop that will run everyday tasks smoothly. This HP 15.6″ laptop flips that assumption on its head by providing solid performance, a generous 16GB of RAM, and a massive 1TB SSD for just $599, down from $2,599. That’s roughly half the price of Apple’s entry-level laptop but with more storage and a bigger screen. Suddenly, this becomes a no-brainer, based on what you actually get for your money.

Balance is key in life: Adding a bit of everything can actually lead to a dull experience. You don’t want every topping from the menu on your burger. Otherwise, the meat’s savory taste might get lost in a torrent of flavors that you imposed onto yourself. But the developers at Bounty Star developer Dinogod don’t seem to agree with me. The studio’s new title is a story-driven game with farming and base-building elements, where you pilot a robot to hunt bounties. The developers are all-in kind of eaters. And thank God they are, because they made an unexpectedly great —…
