Local Dragon’s Dogma 2 player swears he’s wearing it for the stats

MyDragon’s Dogma 2adventure started with humble beginnings. A newly anointed Arisen, I’d fled danger and manifested my own Pawn, and was well on my way to forging my own legend in this dangerous land. Then, I got some pants that barely qualify as coverings. I’m probably only a little over double-digit hours inDragon’s Dogma 2, but my main character’s butt has become a constant. It is simply always there. I see them, bobbing up and down as I delve deep into a cavern....

My name is Brittany and I’m a gaming sadist

Absolute power corrupts absolutely I ventured out to the vet’s office a few weeks ago with a Miniature Pinscher in tow. Sam Fisher (the same of Third Echelon fame), my beloved pup, was to see the doctor for a regular checkup and heartworm test. While waiting in the lobby, I overheard other patrons discussing the abuse of a three-month-old Labrador puppy and the damage inflicted upon its tiny limbs. Tears welled up in my eyes nearly instantly....

No word on Chuck E. Cheese’s Pokkén Tournamentwill be available for testing at the arcade/restaurant chain Dave and Buster’s, according to executive Kevin Bachus. This news is somewhat unsurprising, considering that specific Dave and Buster’s locationswill also have Tekken 7available for testing in the near future. “Candidly both NAMCO and I are more optimistic about that title and our typical guests thanTekken,” Bachus said ina reddit AMAlate last night.

Pre-E3 09: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 has superheroes in it

In my opinion, the firstMarvel Ultimate Alliancegame sucked so hard that Hoover should be researching ways to incorporate it into its vacuum cleaners. I’ve seen prostitutes in Tijuana who would go green with envy at the sight of it. That thing put collapsed stars to shame. That said, I’m a huge fan of these types of games and feel that the first in the series was just a error. An egregious, horrible mistake....
