I’ve covered some of the history of driving and racing video games before, including finding the oddly Volkswagen-sourced origins of first-person driving video games, tracking the evolution of how video game cars looked, and, of course, showing you the worst driving video game of all.

Until Congress gets its act together and outlaws this oversight, a new Twitter account, Can You Pet the Dog?, tells you which games do and don’t let you […]
When it was first announced, not a lot of people thought a live-action Pokémon movie could work.

Super Impulse’s Tiny Arcade line—a series of four-inch-tall fully playable arcade cabinets—is a fun way for ‘80s kids to relive their childhoods spent stuffing quarters into arcade machines. But for those times when you’re away from your desk and get the itch for Pac-Man or Missile Command, Super Impulse has created a…Read more… Continue Reading […]
It’s hardly a selling point, but this year’s edition of Madden has the real Kyle Lauletta.

I like video games, but I don’t play that many of them. The last time I farmed anything was for Legendary Marks in Destiny.
