You ever wonder if Nintendo paid the person who came up with “free-climbing” what they were worth considering it’s seemingly changing every AAA game?

After a year away from the spotlight, E3 is back and finally ready to bulldoze an entire dump-truck's worth of hype straight to your face.

Just like the Easter bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and the Queen of England, I still refuse to believe in the existence of the Borderlands movie.

In case you missed it, we've rounded everything up below for you to check out.

That’s a lot of time to spend showing off a new character who are being added to Smash, but who am I to judge?
