I don’t think any game beats Minecraft, except maybe Minecraft with mods. Instead of comparing games directly, I wanted to showcase those that really stand out in one particular creative area. These games aren’t necessarily huge survival worlds like Minecraft—some don’t even involve survival or crafting—but they offer unique creative tools and features that the base game of Minecraft doesn’t. We’ll focus on the core Minecraft experience to keep the comparison fair.

Released 18 years ago, BioShock profoundly impacted the gaming world, and is still remembered for its powerful line: “A man chooses, a slave obeys.” This quote has become iconic not just because it’s memorable, but because it’s central to the game’s shocking plot twist. That twist fundamentally changed video game storytelling and continues to resonate with players almost two decades later.

Players have noticed problems with several weapons in player-versus-player combat, not just the Kettle. Recently, concerns were raised about the power of ‘Trigger ‘Nades’ from the game ARC Raiders. Many believe these grenades are too strong because they deal a lot of damage, cover a large area, and explode almost instantly. While the Kettle is also causing issues, the problem seems different. Most players think the Kettle itself is fair, but its design is easily exploited by automated programs and other cheating software.

GOG has been focusing heavily on keeping classic games alive, working to ensure older titles still run on today’s computers. Late in 2024, they started the GOG Preservation Program to restore and re-release these games. This program has already brought back favorites like the original Resident Evil trilogy and Alpha Protocol, among many others. Now, CD Projekt is selling GOG to one of the people who originally created the platform.

Since its introduction in the 1990s, Charizard has become one of the most popular Pokémon. Its iconic status as one of the original starter Pokémon has made it a mainstay throughout the entire series. The original Base Set Charizard card is incredibly valuable, and Charizard consistently receives new forms and abilities – like Mega Evolution and Dynamax – often showcasing the latest gameplay features. A recent poll now reveals why Pokémon continues to focus so much attention on this fan-favorite.

Many open-world role-playing games have gained a dedicated fanbase because players can heavily modify them, with thousands of downloadable tweaks and additions. This keeps the games relevant and enjoyable for years, as the community continually improves and updates them, often bringing them up to current standards and preventing them from feeling outdated. Skyrim is a prime example, and the same is true for games from developers like Bethesda, Obsidian, BioWare, and CD Projekt Red. Let’s explore some of the best modern open-world RPGs that have stayed popular thanks to strong modding communities, offering players a huge variety of ways to customize their experience.

Even with many successful anime in 2025, a few series didn’t connect with viewers. Several factors could have caused this, including issues with production, slow or rushed storytelling, unoriginal plots, and forgettable characters. Sometimes, a show might seem promising, but still fall short of expectations. While these anime weren’t completely bad and had some positive aspects, many fans considered them the weakest of the year.
