video games

It can be a hard thing to effectively explain to people why gaming needs diversity. Twitter User @Fightincowboy tackled the challenge, and he nailed it. 

Maybe you're the best Smash Bros or Ping Pong player among your friends. Nothing will prepare you for seeing someone who's actually really good at it. Sure, stay humble and learn from your failures, but here are some things to not get too cocky about before seeing someone who can really do it.

All I'm saying is if this kid took that silly little lie that far, how do we know what's being put out right now as a story grounded in truth, isn't just another work of fiction? That being said, the creativity is still on point, and to imagine such a scenario actually happening, is WILD. 

Moral Guardians really need to do their research before they go bashing treasured video games like, Doom!

When this VR Chat player found himself surrounded by Japanese-speaking people that he couldn't understand, he seized the moment, to sport his best Club Penguin skin. From there, the surprising familial moment that occurred between him and another player, can be rightfully chalked up to the legacy Club Penguin left behind. That online world of rowdy, multi-colored penguins was anything but the innocent bubble of wholesomeness it might've appeared as, on the outside. The players themselves were plain, old, dirty, dude. I read combinations of swear words, I never though possible. It was its own kind of icy Wild West, and damn was it glorious. Relive some of those times with our list of the 20 times people helped make the game the dark-humored laugh factory that it is, over here!

The internet reacted to the news that the new Pokémon games, Sword and Shield, would have UK roots, by storming Twitter with their hot takes on if Scottish people wrote the dialogue for the games. The results are nothing short of wildly entertaining. I'm not sure what the actual plan is, but these are something else. And properly capped off, by an artist who imagines what it'd look like if you were battling the Queen of England! If these have you inspired to check out some Scottish tweets, get your fill over here. 

What started as a petition by Plague Inc. gamers, gave way to enough people actually signing up to state their interest in adding anti-vaxxers to the game. From there, the company posted a status about their decision to work anti-vaxxers in, and people were LIT in the comments section. There were roasts, verbal jabs, and above all else, excited appreciation from the consumers to the company, for them listening to what they wanted. 

A lot of us will encounter unruly customer service at one point in our lives, in the chase to get the most out of the product we spent our hard-earned money on. It is how we choose to react to that momentarily, frustrating customer service when the miscommunication is running strong, that we have control over. Sometimes we lose ourselves in fits of rage and, things boil over. Sh*t happens. In this case, we have a dude getting very frustrated with some customer service doing him anything but a service. And we're talking about a Nintendo Switch. I mean, come on! 

The internet is rife with people trying weirdly aggressive tactics to get sweet deals. They don't usually work, but boy are there a lot of them. There's an especially huge amount of people who are constantly claiming to be buying gifts for their sick children, asking for a ridiculous price like 20 dollars for a playstation 4, then turning around and blowing up on the person they're trying to buy from. Y'know, fun.

Please dear God we hope these people don't have families of their own. The weirdly creative torture and absolutely psychopathic behavior people display when they're in control of simulated families only means that we are troubled, dark gods. The Sims has given birth to many creepy, strange and hilarious moments.
