Released in November 2010 for Windows and Mac, Poker Night at the Inventory is a unique game where characters from different worlds compete in Texas Hold’em poker. It’s famous for its funny banter and references to games like Sam & Max and Homestar Runner. Originally a single-player game, it also let players earn items for Team Fortress 2. When Telltale Games shut down in 2018, the game was removed from Steam in 2019, but those who had already purchased it were still able to play it.

If you prefer, you can set your own goals and keep playing until you reach them. Just make sure your goals are realistic, but these games are designed to support that kind of self-directed play.

Though not a major hit for the Switch 2, Drag x Drive sparked interest with its unique concept: wheelchair basketball controlled using the Joy-Con 2’s mouse-like functions. This control method was a bit divisive, but it made the game appealing to Switch 2 owners curious about trying mouse controls. Initially, the game was missing some features players wanted, but Nintendo has responded to feedback, adding local wireless multiplayer and a new Survival Tag mode in updates.

The Naruto manga often showed certain moments with more detail and impact than the anime adaptation. Manga artists had more time to perfect individual panels, unlike the anime which needed to fill a full 20-minute episode. Here are six scenes that were particularly stronger in the manga version.

I’m really excited about MENACE! It’s a strategy RPG where you play as a commander in the Republic Marine Corps. Basically, you lead a team against all sorts of enemies – both human and alien – across this really wild and dangerous star system called the Wayback system. It’s all turn-based, so you have time to think out your moves.

When you look at the whole Dragon Ball Super universe, even incredibly strong characters like Goku and Vegeta are surprisingly outmatched. Some characters accomplish amazing things with little to no training, things Goku and Vegeta have dedicated their lives to barely achieving. Considering almost everyone in the series can destroy planets, the sheer number of overwhelmingly powerful characters shows just how extreme power levels have become.

Occasionally, a game’s story isn’t very exciting. While some open-world games depend on a strong narrative because they lack extra things to do, many others don’t. Sometimes, players just want to wander around and make their own fun, and that’s often when the game becomes truly enjoyable. In those kinds of games, it’s best to forget the main story and create your own adventures.

Crunchyroll, the popular anime streaming service enjoyed by fans worldwide outside of Japan, recently announced it’s increasing its subscription prices. As you might expect, many fans are disappointed with this change.

If you enjoy historical settings or fantasy, there are some excellent first-person shooter games available. While they might not always perfectly recreate the past, these games offer a refreshing change for players who are bored with typical modern shooters.

Currently, in the Boruto series, no ninja possesses the Rinnegan ability. Sasuke Uchiha was the last known user, but he lost this power after being injured by Momoshiki. However, the new Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga suggests the Rinnegan might return, and many fans believe Sarada Uchiha will be the one to wield it.
