The Divine Comedy is one of the classics of world literature, and still taught in Italian schools to this day. This epic poem was finished in 1321, shortly before author Dante Alighieri's death, and essentially follows his quest to right the world's wrongs and put a lot of people he didn't like in hell. Virgil mouths off a bit too, though once he's replaced in Purgatorio it all gets much...
Video game launches are typically fairly rote endeavors. Outlets publish reviews when an embargo lifts, usually shortly before a game launches, and the public will use those reviews to inform its purchasing decisions. Occasionally, you’ll have a controversial launch, like how CD Projekt Red lost all its goodwill with the bug-filled mess of a launch that was Cyberpunk 2077 back in 2020. The launch of Mindseye, however, isn’t controversial, or...
In our Outer Worlds review back in 2019, we called Obsidian's sci-fi satire "a quirky romp across a solar system ruled by brutal corporations," but the zany ribbing about the excesses of corporate misconduct didn't land for everyone living in the world where the delivery drivers of major companies are pressured to pee in bottles to be able to make their quotas. In The Outer Worlds 2, Obsidian says that—while...
Glorious' new entry-level lightweight gaming mouse is out. At least the Glorious Model O Eternal is out literally everywhere across the world except the US. And the reason? "Ongoing global supply chain issues," apparently.Quite how a "global" supply chain issue prevents release in just one country isn't clear. Perhaps the real reason would more accurately be adjacent to tariff uncertainty and the Texas-based Glorious doesn't want to court the wrath...
The first Outer Worlds has a very tight scope. The 2019 Obsidian Entertainment RPG, according to our review at the time, is “expansive when it needs to be, but never falls into the trap of believing that bigger is always better.” You could beat the game in 15 hours if you wanted — unlike, say, Obsidian’s Fallout: New Vegas. But that also meant Outer Worlds’ anti-capitalist satire could only go...

So, busy week in the world of video games, huh? The Nintendo Switch 2 has finally launched and landed in the hands of gamers around the world, eight years after the first Switch revolutionized gaming. The Switch 2 isn’t quite as revolutionary, with Nintendo opting to make an upgrade of its predecessor rather than completely overhaul what might end up being the best-selling console ever. Still, that isn’t stopping plenty...
