Nintendo’s King of the Ring finally joins Smash Bros.

Lil Mac returns to the Ring in Smash Bros

Well, it’s about damn time.

After first introducing us to the magic that a Nintendo all-star fighting game could be in 1999 (god, typing that makes me feel old), the House of Mario FINALLY brought a FIGHTER to the melee!

The introduction of Little Mac as a playable character during last week’s Nintendo direct was a surprise to me, but only because they’ve ignored the fighter standing in their midst for so long.

StarBound Grand Theft Furniture Sans Galaxia

Chucklefish, the indie creators of PC-based “Starbound,” makes no reservations about what to expect when playing the beta version of their first-ever game.

Quake: It was great then, it is still great now!

It was great then, it is still great now. Quake, the game that went on to change the game, is still relevant today.

Whether you want to play through the single-player story or multiplayer death-match, both can still be done and are being done.
