Borderlands 4 Has Too Many Buttons
Yeah I said it. When I play Borderlands, I just want to shoot bad guys in the head and blow them up. I want to no scope a guy running at me with an axe, I want to phase blast someone into Valhalla, and I want to I watch someone decompose when I blow up […]

New Old Game Review: Darkrise
I’m a sucker for side scrolling retro games. Hook, line, and pixelated sinker. So while I was burning 10 minutes the other day I went to ChatGPT and asked it what game I should play. My prompt included phrases like, “Recommend something that doesn’t suck” and “It’s ok if it’s an older game I just […]

It’s here! 2025 is upon us and so are a bunch of games we can’t wait to play. You just (may have) read our dev update to start the year, and I want to balance out the nerdy-coder speak with some actual games that us at LFGdating can’t wait to play. Ghost of Yotei Expected […]

Battle for Azeroth First Impressions
World of Warcraft’s newest expansion: Battle for Azeroth, is a breath of fresh gaming air. The last expansion, Legion, was fun albeit visually repetitive at the end. Seriously – can we get some blue sky for the Love of Elune? Argus doubled down on the scorched-earth-and-black-sky motif that ran roughshod over the rest of the graphics. We’re now […]

Classic WoW and the Art of Exploration
Vanilla World of Warcraft (or Classic to be know from here-forth), still brings back sweet memories and haunting boss drops. Whether played for fun or as a lifestyle, the first iteration of WoW changed the culture of online gaming forever. I remember stopping at Best Buy off of Route 43 somewhere between Lake Geneva and […]

Stranger Things: The Game is Fantasmagistical
Stranger Things: The Game is quite possibly the best way to start your weekend morning. Here I am, sitting on the couch next to my mother-in-law, killing time before my wife comes home from her workout. Coffee in hand and pup laying next to me, I open Reddit. Bam – front page post on Stranger […]

Massive Affection for Mass Effect: Andromeda
My love affair with the Mass Effect series goes back 7 years to when Mass Effect 2 released. I vividly remember sitting on my couch in my downtown studio apartment, feet on the coffee table, watching the loading screens come and go. I didn’t go in with any preconceived notions. I was hoping it would be […]

26 Things That Will Happen Before Half-Life 3 Finally Gets Made
Back in late 2004 I was into my senior year of college, and reviews of the newly released sequel to the critically acclaimed Half-Life were off the charts as expected. After countless all-nighters studying tearing through HL2’s amazing scenery with easily one of the coolest video game weapons ever created – the gravity gun – […]

World of Warcraft’s Legion is Becoming the Expansion We Deserve
You got me. I thought it would take longer, if it would happen at all. It’s been awhile since I looked forward to having a night of WoW. Don’t get me wrong, just because I didn’t love Warlords of Draenor, it doesn’t mean I thought the game was going in a bad direction. And if you’ve […]
