The Next World of Warcraft Expansion Will Be Battle for Azeroth!

World of Warcraft expansions keep coming, and the next one sounds pretty big: Battle for Azeroth! I don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty final to me. Though, Blizzard has not said this is the final expansion. But it does bring the classic Horde vs. Alliance war back to the forefront!

As always, we got a sweet cinematic trailer to go with the announcement!

And we got a trailer talking about the new additions to the game world. We’ll finally unlock Kul Tiras, which is cool.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) I’m in one of my off-periods for World of Warcraft. It’s one of my favorite video games of all time, and it’s a gameworld and lore I love to the very core of my being. But I can’t always afford to play or want to play. I haven’t even touched Legion, which will hopefully go on sale soon.

The expansion sounds cool, but the number one thing that will bring me back to WoW — new playable races — wasn’t announced for the third expansion in a row. The last new playable race we got were pandaren (which I loved, by the way).

Instead, the new expansion will have subraces. They look pretty cool. And I suppose this would give me a good reason to finally roll a proper dwarf and troll.

But I want to make an ogre, gosh darnit!

6 Locations for Future Rockstar Games

The Red Dead Redemption sequel is on its way, and hopefully I’ll get to play it on PC at some point in my lifetime. Fingers are crossed. One also has to imagine that Grand Theft Auto 6 is also in production somewhere — even though Rockstar has discovered the get rich quick scheme of in-game micro-transactions. They make great games, some of my favorites of all time, and I want more glorious, open-world Rockstar greatness!

But where to next?

Rockstar List 01

We’re just getting started

One would hope that Rockstar have an unlimited number of options ahead of them. The past two Grand Theft Auto games have featured lovingly rendered versions of New York City and Los Angeles, to degrees we previously never thought possible. And the Red Dead Redemption series has taken the greatness of Grand Theft Auto and transferred it to the rough and tumble world of the Wild West. So clearly, the good people at Rockstar know how to make a game world.

So where should they go next? Either in Grand Theft Auto or a new series? Join me after the jump to hear some potential ideas!

I Still Won’t Be Able to Play the New Spider-Man Game

There’s still a fancy new Spider-Man video game coming to the Playstation next year, and it looks pretty cool!

Problem is, I won’t get to play it! Boo! I gave up on console video games awhile ago and use just Steam and my PC. But this game is one of those gosh-darned exclusives! So unless something breaks and it comes to PC a few years down the line, I’m out of luck.

Though I’m not sure if it’s going to be a good game, yet. It looks cool, sure, but where’s the gameplay? What little we’ve seen in the past looks like a bunch of quick-time events. I’m slightly worried. But we’ll see! It’s got the Shocker, and I like that!

LEGO Stingray to Exist!

There’s a new LEGO Marvel Superheroes game coming out soon, and I was only mildly interested in it until about 30 seconds ago. I used to be big into the original LEGO Star Wars games, but haven’t done much with LEGO Marvel games.

Until I saw that Stingray was going to be in the new game! Holy cow!

Did you catch him? He’s at 00:37 in the trailer! LEGO Stingray! Oh man oh man, I’m over the moon now!

Now Marvel just needs to make a legit Stingray mini-fig or LEGO set for me to own and love.

LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2 will be out on Nov. 14. Hopefully on Steam.

Everybody Loves Pokemon, Honestly!

I enjoyed Pokemon Sun and Moon. It had some unique twists to the same old story, and the graphics were just super. There’s a new, super version coming out soon, but I think I’ll pass…or maybe I’ll buy it! I haven’t decided yet! Either way, here’s an Honest Trailer!

Good times. I think fun was had by all.
