Since pixels could bleed, charlatans everywhere have poured great zealous into their quests to create arbitrary connections between video game violence and cruelty from the youth. Their efforts have, predictably, been entirely fruitless and repeatedly disregarded.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is one of the best musou games ever made, lovingly rendered in green and filled to bursting with fan service content that makes you feel like the greatest badass in all the land.

Since its reveal last week, the hype around Battlefield V has been almost drowned out by an angry chorus from community members who feel that the upcoming game's inclusion of playable female characters (and persons with disabilities) is breaking the franchise's perceived historical accuracy.

For most of us, our gaming journey began with the best console: The Sony PlayStation. It was cool, the advertising on a VHS tape made it mainstream and it had some of the best games ever that pushed the envelope in several genres.

Zygarde will be up for grabs, available to all players of the Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon versions of the latest Pokémon games. This specific version will feature a colour scheme of white and teal, which kind of also looks far better than the regular Zygarde’s camouflage which makes it look like it’s trying to blend into a Monster Energy Drink warehouse.
