The Rocky series has never quite gotten its due when it came to video games. The PS2/Xbox era had two of them and while Rocky Legends was the better game, it was still clunky and slow. It didn’t capture the heart of the movies or the spirit of boxing in either a sim or arcade-style affair. This held true in a PSP follow-up on the Rocky Balboa movie, and for the longest time the franchise was dormant....
This year has marked Kirby being in our heart and home for thirty years. The lovable pink bundle of joy has always been one of those Nintendo series that likes to cozy up to people of all ages and create gorgeous and memorable adventures. Kirby’s personal dive into 3D gaming is not exclusive to the newest Forgotten Land, but hearkens back to the 3DS release of Blowout Bash. While simplistic in nature it set the playing field for what was to come, and after thirty years we’ve finally gotten our first mainline 3D Kirby title with Kirby and the Forgotten Land....
Back in 2016, Ubisoft Annecy gave us Steep, a bold attempt at trying to create a massively multiplayer, open world, extreme sports game.

The Acura ZDX Is A Normal EV For Real People (And That’s Rarer Than You’d Think) Honda has been largely absent from the electric vehicle market in the United States, and the brand’s only current contributions to electrification are hybrid versions of the CR-V and Accord. They’re perfectly fine cars, if a little mundane. But that has changed today as Honda’s Acura brand has unveiled its first EV, the2024 ZDX. UnlikeCadillac’s most recent EV announcement, the Escalade IQ, or anything from Tesla, the ZDX doesn’t boast any extraordinary abilities aside from a pretty impressive range clocking in at upwards of 325 miles from the base, single-motor model....
The Forgotten 1993 Concept Car You’d Never Guess Was A Ferrari Something about this car strikes the eye wrong. It’s not that it doesn’t have a roof; many vehicles don’t have tops. Perhaps the starkly contrasting black front fenders with cutouts that look like weird little eyes. Maybe it’s the lack of a proper windshield, just the hint of a screen harkening back to racers from yesteryear.Road & Trackcalled it a “duck-billed platypus” and a “smiling shoe....

The U.S. Army Nearly Fielded This Incredibly Unsafe Aerocycle The United States military has a lot of incredible toys at its disposal due to decades of procurements, testing, refining, and manufacturing. You don’t get to fly an F-35 or pilot an M1A2 without going through a lot of steps. It takes a lot of time, money, and effort to put a new vehicle or weapon system into the inventory, and what ultimately does succeed is vastly outnumbered by what doesn’t....

Updated August 15, 2025: Checked for new codes! As a fan of strategy games, I was delighted when I discovered Tower Defense X on Roblox. The game excels at keeping all the beloved elements of the formula while adding personality and flair into the mix. Triumphing over the hordes of nemeses has never felt this rewarding!

Vernal Edgeis easily one of the most intriguingMetroid-likes I’ve seen in some time. The combat is clearly influenced byDevil May Cryof all things, and the areas are different islands accessed via an airship on a 3D field. Combine that with strong pixel art and an above-average level of challenge, and you’re left with a game that easily surpassed my expectations. You play as Vernal, a girl (or young woman? It’s not entirely clear) whose pregnant mother was abandoned by her husband....
