The Daily Grind: Are MOBAs destined for a Great Crash?
Make no mistake, even with the recent launch of Heroes of the Storm, MOBAs are crashing and burning all over the place these days. We've seen titles like Transformers Universe, Solstice Arena, Infinite Crisis, Dawngate, and Wrath of Heroes flame out against the shared monopoly of League of Legends and Dota 2, and the consensus around the Massively OP...
Betawatch: June 19th, 2015
You could be forgiven for sort of forgetting about The Division. No matter how much it might have interested you at first, the game kind of dropped off the radar for half of forever. But now it's on track for a winter beta and a launch next year, and we found out a bit about the game from E3,...
The Stream Team: Tearing through SWTOR story missions with a vengeance
There's this little game called SWTOR... maybe you've heard of it? And it is getting an expansion soon, one that's all about the story.

Did you catch the Eternal Crusade livestream earlier today? If not, you missed the reveal of Belial, the new Space Marines leader and the Grand Master of the Deathwing. Which is kind of an impressive title, even if, like me, you have no clue what it means.

See a pair of high-octane Overwatch matches
Got a few minutes? Then we've got some action eye candy for you, straight from the land of Overwatch.

E3 2015: The Division’s Dark Zone demo does the game no favors
After covering the development of Ubisoft's The Division since 2013, I finally got my hands on the game itself -- and its PvP -- at this year's E3. It's not exactly a true MMO, but it's got online co-op, tablet-assisted play, and an "end of the world" setting free of zombies, all of which should translate to hype. New details...
