Final Fantasy VII was one of the most influential games in Square Enix’s history. When it was first released on the PlayStation in 1997, the game sent ripples through the roleplaying genre and the video game industry as a whole.

Final Fantasy is a much beloved but strange series. With a multitude of characters, differing story lines and so much more, it’s no wonder it has become popular. But in order for the games to be engaging, they need opposing forces, such as unique bosses. These bosses can range from abominable monsters to humans that defy the main characters at every point.

DOOM and Animal Crossing fans are providing the Internet with the kind of story that the Internet needs right now by posting wholesome, supportive memes on social media. The two fan communities are known for their creativity and comedy like the time fans made Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Tom Nook memes, but this is for a much more wholesome reason. On the Animal Crossing and DOOM Reddits, fans from each of the games’ communities are going over to the other to post friendly images and messages of support....

This Dragon Ball Super review contains spoilers. Dragon Ball Super Episode 87 “Really? Space poachers?” “Hunt the Poaching Ring!” very much banks off of the momentum that’s established when Goku and Android 17 experience their reunion in the prior installment, but this episode also feels like it’s the second-half of last week’s story in a lot of ways. “Hunt the Poaching Ring!” takes the tension and action from last week and puts it through a decidedly much sillier filter, but the results are still quite exciting since it’s all in the service of Goku and Android 17 fighting alongside each other....

It’s interesting to look at how different the state of gaming is viewed in North America as opposed to Asia. While in Asia, the free-to-play market is massive, with gamers clamoring for games and shelling out for micro-transactions, the concept just hasn’t caught-on in North America. While there have been minor successes with games such as Battlefield Heroes showing that they can grab a share of the gaming market and Company Of Heroes moving to a free-to-play format, these successes have been few and far between....

As a complete newcomer to Elder Scrolls Online, the biggest thing that I appreciated was the fact that I didn’t need to have played through any of ESO’s previous expansions and get to the right gear level to jump into High Isle. Unlike my main MMO, FFXIV, which demands quite a bit of time and dedication if you want to keep up with the main story, Elder Scrolls Online is a kindly friend who’s just glad you’re here....
