Red Dead Redemption 2 Gets Surprise Patch

All eyes are on Grand Theft Auto 6, including for the team at Rockstar Games. That’s why it was surprising to see a patch notes update come through the news wire for Red Dead Redemption 2, a game launched in 2018. While the online…

Red Dead Redemption Heading to Switch

2010’s Red Dead Redemption is an incredible release in Rockstar Games’ near-flawless library of games. The sequel, Red Dead Redemption 2, might be a generational title, but the first entry in the duology also deserves love. Nintendo Switch owners will soon be able to…

Lost Gaming Arts: Simple Core Loops

In-game Cameras: The Focus of Gaming

Just the other day, I was driving at 160 mph around a pool in a principality in the south of France and I had a thought. What is the Queen’s middle name? It turns out it’s “Rani,” Who knew. Ok, stupid joke…
