Metroid Prime's Scanner Is The Original Detective Mode

I hated Metroid Prime’s Scan Visor when I was a kid. All of Samus’ other abilities help you kill things, reach new areas, or solve puzzles, but all you can do with the Scan Visor is read stuff, and I ain’t about that nerd shit. I resented scanning because no matter how hard I tried to get 100 percent completion, I would inevitably forget to scan a boss during a fight and ruin the entire run....

Mortal Kombat Fans Are Happy Mileena Is Lipless Again

Mileenais back, baby.Mortal Kombat 1 was officially unveiled yesterday, and surprisingly enough, it confirmed that everyone’s favourite Outworld baddie will be in the game from launch, rather than be added down the line as DLC. Better yet, her design is great. However, every dedicated Mileena stan knows that there’s more than meets the eye - her best feature is beneath the mask. And thankfully, us freaks in the fanbase weren’t disappointed, as the trailer also showed that Mileena yet again has no lips - just a bunch of horrific, deadly sharpened teeth....

Persona 5 Getting A Big Mobile Game Was Inevitable

Persona 5is getting a mobile game, and honestly, I’m surprised it took so long. Persona 5 is one of the most popular and influential RPGs of the past decade, and we know how much greedy little publishers love to mine their darlings for all their worth. Fire Emblem, Tales, Mario Kart, Pikmin, Pokemon, and Final Fantasy are just a few of the big names to make millions on iOS and Android, so it’s hardly a shock to see Persona join the ranks....

Persona 5 Parody Starring The Golden Girls Arrives Later This Year

Despite being three decades out of production (and all of its stars being dead–we miss you, Betty) The Golden Girls remains a timeless classic for just having an absolutely bonkers premise. Three widowers and a divorcee are all roommates in a Miami home getting up to the most bizarre scenarios one could imagine for a group of female geriatrics. It’s almost as bizarre as the premise for thePersonaseries, which perhaps explains the inspiration for the personal passion project of one Joey Pagano....
