Since the release of the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game, there have been multiple instances in its lifetime where past cards have been re-released with their card text changed– in particular when the Problem Solving Card Text changes were implemented so players could better understand the cards they were playing. Another common text change that has been occurring with more frequency in recent years are erratas, where the effect of a card is changed, usually to tone down the effect somewhat and give it a less powerful effect....

In the game of Yu-Gi-Oh! there are many cards that have entered into the card pool with all sorts of effects. Some of these are best used with combo decks, while others act best in control-oriented playstyles. One of the strongest types of cards in Yu-Gi-Oh!’s control catalog are Floodgates. Floodgate is an unofficial term given to cards with lingering effects that affect both players. Often times these effects are restrictive, causing the game to come to a slow halt until they are removed from the Field....

When it comes to device colors there are typically two schools of thought. On the one hand are those who want uniformity in their technology — whatever color seems to dominate the entertainment center (typically black) usually becomes the person’s color of choice when picking new items. On the flip side are those who shoot for rarity — these are the people who, no matter how outlandish the design, want a device that stands out from the pack....

Wikipedia is a great place to learn about things that you didn’t know. The site, famously, can be edited by anyone with an account—though there are editors who occasionally check the veracity of the submissions. One would assume that major brands, such as Sony, would take an active role in maintaining their own Wikipedia pages. However, it appears that this is not the case, as curtains can be found in the background of the “official” picture of the PS5 on Wikipedia....

With more people working remotely than ever before, it’s important to be aware of the potential cybersecurity threats out there. October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and the long-reiterated theme - Own IT, Secure IT, and Protect IT - couldn’t be more relevant. It’s up to each of us to take responsibility for our online safety. One of the best ways to do that is by using strong passwords and a password manager....

My favourite Pokemon game of all time is Emerald, but I think Crystal is objectively better. Johto is one of the most coherent and consistently fascinating regions Game Freak ever put together, while intriguing new mechanics and features like the day/night cycle and the Bug Catching contest, respectively, shook up the Pokemon formula in a legitimately ambitious way. The best part about Gen 2, though, was the return to a completely different version of Kanto set three years after the original games....

After the shock announcement that Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 4 Pro does not act as a 4K Blu-ray disc player, Sony reveals its reasoning behind a lack of 4K Blu-ray support. The fact that Sony has been diligently working on an upgraded version of the PlayStation 4 is one of the worst kept secrets in video games. Finally, the company confirmed that the project was on the way, and that this beefed up PlayStation 4 was going to be known as the PlayStation 4 Pro....

Winning Putt has the potential to be a must-play title for anyone looking for an engrossing golf video game, but a few rough edges detract from the overall experience in its current form. It’s safe to say that the golf genre isn’t quite as prosperous as it once was; Mario Golf seems to have been relegated to handhelds, EA’s latest attempt at the sport wasn’t well-received, and the Hot Shots Golf series has now been dormant for five years....

Considering the amount of hours that can be poured into Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, players have more than likely come across a slew of awkward, oddly-timed conversations with the NPC inhabitants of Cyrodiil. It turns out that there is a distinct reason as to why this is the case. In a behind-the-scenes interview with Bathesda Games Studios’ Audio Director, Mark Lampert, it was revealed that the Elder Scrolls: Oblivion scripts for the voice actors had their lines listed in alphabetical order....

The Warcraft film aimed to dive into the canonical lore of the World of Warcraft games and create a satisfying universe for fans and newcomers. Unfortunately, the film didn’t seem to resonate with audiences and after receiving largely negative reviews and a worse than expected box office performance, it was swiftly left for dead. However, fans may remember that there was a huge amount of anticipation around Warcraft and it seems that it was supposed to be the start of a trilogy of films....

World War Z launched just a couple of days ago, but the launch hasn’t been the smoothest. While the game has had a better go of it than many other online titles on launch day, World War Z has still suffered from connectivity issues, a crashing bug, and some other problems. To its credit, Saber Interactive has been quick to act, releasing a patch that looks to address some of the problems with the game....

If you’ve ever wanted to go back and experience such legendary World of Warcraft events as the Ahn’Qiraj War Effort event but without the crashes, then Blizzard has your back. World of Warcraft Classic, set to launch in summer of this year, promises to bring you the experience of the original game, but with some quality of life updates designed to eliminate some of the more interesting bugs. The event that many players who remember classic are likely to be looking forward to, albeit with some trepidation, is the Ahn’Qiraj war effort....

Wrestling and video games continue to intertwine. One way that sees constant melding of the two mediums is through wrestlers bringing their love of video games and pop culture to the ring. From way back to Rey Mysterio with superhero-inspired costumes in WCW, to even Hikaru Shida’s Tifa cosplay in All Elite Wrestling just this year, it is always a welcomed crossover. While there are many wrestlers ready to demonstrate their love of video games, none are quite as passionate as embodying characters quite like Zelina Vega....

With industry pundit Geoff Keighley hyping up this year’s Game Awards ceremony to an extreme degree, it stands to reason that the major console manufacturers will have all kinds of big announcements peppered throughout the show. Just last year, Microsoft unveiled the first look at the Xbox Series X, for instance, so there’s got to be something good this year. Well, it might actually be wise to temper those expectations, at least according to Xbox marketing manager Aaron Greenberg....

YouTube is testing out two new features that it hopes will reduce the number of toxic comments posted in reply to videos. Considering it didn’t even exist 20 years ago, the hold social media has over many of our lives is pretty incredible. There’s a very real chance that social media led you to this very article. The number of likes a photo gets on Instagram or how many times a joke you came up with gets retweeted can make or break our day....

DC fans have waited years for Zack Snyder’s Justice League to be released and a few lucky fans were given the opportunity to watch the film a few days ahead of everyone else. But, when they logged online, they were greeted by an error message instead of getting access to the much-awaited film. The special screening was delayed by six hours. The invite-only premiere, which was scheduled for March 15, was meant to happen via Microsoft Teams....

The full name of this Zelda spinoff is Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda. Phew, what a mouthful, right? It’s a terrible name, but a terrific game. It was a crazy announcement during an earlier Nintendo Direct this year. There is a Crypt of the NecroDancer sequel and it involves Zelda? That can’t be right. Getting big third-party studios, like Ubisoft, to make a game for Nintendo is one thing, but this deal is unprecedented....
