These shoes, normally $80, will be on sale tomorrow, November 25th. The company created them specifically for gamers.

The new trailer for Pokopia starts with a strikingly damaged Pokemon Center and a classic Pokedex, immediately sparking fan theories. Many believe the game takes place on Cinnabar Island from the original Pokemon games (Red, Blue, and Yellow). In later games, it was revealed that Cinnabar Island was largely destroyed by a volcanic eruption, leaving only a few buildings standing – including a Pokemon Center, which closely resembles the one shown in the trailer.

I’m so excited! The Field Museum here in Chicago just announced they’re bringing the Pokemon Fossil Exhibition to us! It’s going to be open from May 22, 2026, to April 11, 2027. Apparently, it started in Japan back in 2021, and it’s this really cool mix of Pokemon that look like fossils and actual prehistoric fossils – it sounds amazing!

Ubisoft recently announced that the Assassin’s Creed franchise had a very successful quarter, boosted by sales of the latest game, Shadows, and older titles. Players have spent over 211 million days playing Assassin’s Creed games so far this year, a 35% increase compared to the average over the last two years.

A lot of players were worried the game would rely on ‘gacha’ mechanics – where you pay for random items – even with a purchase price. But those who played it early, including us, can confirm that Solo Leveling ARISE OVERDRIVE is a traditional pay-to-play game. You can unlock everything in the game, including characters, simply by playing and collecting resources. Some players have mentioned, though, that gathering those materials can feel a bit repetitive.

Landing a role in a commercial is a great opportunity for actors and models, but many ads actually feature real, everyday people and their genuine reactions.

Warner Bros. is now for sale, and as of November 24, 2025, companies like Paramount, Comcast, and Netflix have made offers to buy it. There’s also been talk of interest from investment groups in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. Fans of DC Comics are especially curious about how this sale will affect the future of James Gunn’s DC Universe, which has recently gained momentum with shows like ‘Superman’ and the second season of ‘Peacemaker’.

I recently got my hands on Where Winds Meet, the first game from Everstone Studio, and wow, it’s something special! It’s set in ancient China during a really cool period – the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms – and it’s a fantastic mix of everything I love in games. Think open-world adventure, action combat, and RPG elements all rolled into one. You can play it completely solo or team up with others, which is awesome. The combat is amazing – super flashy sword fights and you can even use Tai Chi to send enemies (and even animals!) flying. The bosses are seriously challenging – they remind me of the tough ones in FromSoftware games. And the first two areas, Kaifeng and Qinghe, are HUGE. There are honestly hundreds of hours of content there – tons of secrets, puzzles, and enemies to defeat. The best part? It’s completely free to play! I’m already completely hooked.
