Games That Time Forgot
We all know a video that we know and love. But, when it comes to telling a friend about it, they have no idea what game you are going on about. There are many reasons why a game is unknown or forgotten—not a big fan base, nothing worthy of remembering, wasn't good enough in the eyes of critics, or simply it was lost in the great never ending library of video games.

Worst Video Game Mascots of All Time
Some of the most classic video game mascots will always have a dear place in our hearts. Silly and cartoonish though they may be, Sonic the Hedgehog, who debuted with the Sega Genesis system, and the Mario Bros. appeal to the child in all of us—and the child that was all of us when we were first introduced to the great mascots of video game history. Unfortunately, not all characters are created equal, and the success of Sonic and Mario gave way to a series of truly horrible, excessively cartoonish, cringe-worthy characters. So much so, they all compete for the title of the worst video game mascots to have ever hit our consoles.

The 10 Most Inappropriate Video Games Ever Made
There will always be a moral debate concerning the influence that inappropriate video games may have on users; such as increased aggression, sexuality, and drug use. Contrary to an inappropriate film, the gamer has autonomy over the actions and decisions made by characters in gameplay, and the dynamic of an inappropriate video game can make games feel more real and relative, tapping into a fantasy world in which judgement and norms are unapparent. Though in some cases game designers add explicit elements into inferior games to compensate for poor gameplay quality, this idea is attractive to some gamers, and it cannot be understated that explicit video games is an interesting genre in the gaming industry.

My Top Five Legend of Zelda Bosses
When you've made your way through any level in most role playing video games, you're confronted with one final challenge that you have to overcome before you can move on from that area. This challenge usually appears in the form of a giant enemy that requires a very specific strategy to beat. Depending on the franchise, these fights can turn out to be very different - extremely story driven with long cutscenes and very little player input, easy but extremely long or tedious, short but mind numbingly difficult, the list goes on. It should suffice to say that boss fights are something that everyone looks forward to for the grandiose and the spectacle of it all. Given that dungeons are one of the most integral part of The Legend of Zelda franchise, it was expected that the series presented gamers with excellent bosses. And so far, Nintendo has delivered.

Top 5 Most Overrated Video Games of the Recent Decade
If Pablo Picasso had painted eight pieces of the exact same subject and background, and tried to profit off a museum full of just that same painting over and over again, he'd be forcibly committed, or at least decommissioned. So why are game developers getting away with it? How many fucking Mario clones are going to spawn from Nintendo-like eggs from a salmon? But it's not just the game developers, it's the publishers. Electronic Arts (EA) is allowed to release the same damn sports games every year, but even the most promising new idea discussed in a business meeting is squashed in favor of another Assassin's Creed, another Far Cry game, another Call of Duty.
