Hammond is Here


You may recall a while ago, Blizzard announced that a new fighter was coming. He was Hammond the hamster, and he rolled around in a giant mechanical ball. Dubbed “Wrecking Ball,” the new character is now available for all players in standard games. Have fun!

Guacamelee! 2 Release Date


According to a recent announcement on the PlayStation YouTube (and presumably other places), The sequel to the popular Mexican food platformer will be released on August 21, 2018. Preorders are available now for those interested. I never got into the game, personally. So I can’t tell you much about it.

The Retro Commodore 64 Mini


Smaller versions of retro game consoles are all the rage lately. Nintendo really kickstarted it with the NES Mini. A while back, Europe was given a Retro Commodore 64 Mini product. It would receive average feedback, with such complaints as stiff controls and games lacking any staying power. Regardless, the console will be coming to the States on October 9 of this year. Estimated price is $80.
