Talking Point What Game Do You Wish You Could Forget?
(But in a good way)
Stop right there! We know what you're thinking. You're expecting a long list of games that we wish we had never played. The stinkers that took up 20 hours we'll never get back. Well, you're wrong!

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 15th)
Happy weekend!

This week we were lucky enough to head behind the scenes at Ubisoft to get a look at Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope as the game nears release...
