Video Game Coverage

A former marine shared a Twitter thread offering up his opinion on the state of modern war video games. The thing about war is that it never changes. 

Mark Kern, who was the team lead for Vanilla World of Warcraft, the creator of Em-8ER, Firefall, a producer of Diablo 2, Starcraft, Broodwar, and more, has drawn his line in the sand when it comes to China and their nasty, shady gaming business practices. He calls out Blizzard for being spineless when it comes to standing up against China. 

So basically Ash heckled a Mr. Mime and now he's his stepdad. That's enough internet for the day. Is nothing sacred? Pokémon fans couldn't have been ready for this. 

These classic WoW memes are sure to strike some chords for the World of Warcraft gamers/fans out there. All we need is South Park to do another Warcraft episode and we are set to jet. 

This young woman complained on Twitter about Mario being racist, and hispanic people stepped forward to tell her not to speak for them. It would seem that none of them had any problem with Mario. Instead, their biggest problem was the white millennial woman speaking for them. 

The Sims does everything it can to try and "simulate" real life. In this case, a recent glitch has resulted in spawning what looks like a social services worker. This social services worker proceeds to take the kids away if you're not doing a good job at looking after them in your game. The Sims Wiki says that the social worker "will take away a baby, toddler, child, or pet if their needs drop too low, or in later games, if there are no more older Sims remaining in the household (i.e. due to death). They also will come to deliver adopted kids to their new family."

Numerous players are encountering this new glitch when their toddlers go to pick up a tablet, and then won't put it down, which results in them eventually disappearing into nothingness. 

Pokémon Sword and Shield's latest update trailer got the world of Pokémon fans and foot fetishists going. Yes, it seems this particular gym leader named Bea has just the kind of feet that sets off people's inner foot fetishist. The thirst was strange and uncomfortable and very real from some people on Twitter, who reacted to the trailer. They want this new gym leader in Pokémon Sword and Shield to step on them. 

Ikea's build-your-own-couch feature on the site naturally got trolled and toyed with to utter perfection. It really brought out people's inner Minecraft mode. We're not so sure how conventional these couches are, but we know they were definitely fun to make. 

War. War never changes.
