As of 2026, the conversation around difficult video games has only grown louder. Fans who grew up with the brutal NES era remember how challenging titles like Battletoads, Ninja Gaiden, and even Super Mario Bros. could be. Back then, that difficulty was often seen as a frustrating requirement rather...
When people think of McLaren, their minds usually jump to Formula 1 or mid-engine supercars like the F1 and 720S. But back in 1980, McLaren Engines in Michigan helped Ford build one of the strangest and rarest pony cars ever to wear a Mustang badge. Ford wanted to shake up its performance image as t...
I’m going to say something that sounds unhinged: I am not even mad about the bench that killed me. Well, maybe I’m a little mad, but honestly, it’s the kind of nasty trick I should have seen coming from Team Cherry. In Hollow Knight: Silksong, benches are supposed to be your sanctuary. They’re the l...
In the sprawling universe of Soulslikes, few design choices shape a journey as deeply as the enemies prowling each region. A game can refine its parry timings, polish its stamina management, and craft a haunting world, yet if its bestiary dresses the same creature in three different shaders, the exp...
In the kingdom of Pharloom, every corner hides a challenge, and the road forward is never free of trouble.

When Hollow Knight: Silksong finally arrived on September 4, 2025, it was more than just the end of a six-year wait.

I have spent a large portion of 2025 glued to my couch with a controller in hand, and I can honestly say that Split Fiction ruined me in the best possible way. It was that rare title where the split-screen action felt cinematic, the storytelling hit every emotional beat, and the cooperative interact...
Now in 2026, months after finishing Hollow Knight: Silksong, I still find myself replaying its bosses in my head. After fifty of the most glorious hours I have ever given to a video game, Team Cherry's adventure left me desperate to write about it until my fingers hurt. The bosses felt like the idea...
Ask just about any gearhead to name a Ford sports car, and the Mustang will probably roll off their tongue before they finish blinking. Fair enough—the Mustang has been a legend for decades. But between the late 1980s and late 1990s, Ford also had another two-door running around with a secret Japane...
I have waited so long for Hollow Knight: Silksong that my hairline has physically receded in anticipation. As a regular player, not a lore scholar or a speedrunner, I just wanted a beautiful, punishing metroidvania with no rough edges. And honestly? Team Cherry delivered. Silksong is polished to a r...
The lantern-lit halls of Pharloom saw a fresh wave of pilgrims in the weeks after Hornet's solo journey began. Hollow Knight: Silksong has already gathered more than five million players across every platform, with half a million of them arriving on Steam within hours of release. That enormous playe...
For decades, Pontiac seemed to do no wrong. The brand built honest, fast, and affordable muscle cars, from the golden-era GTO to the Trans Am made famous by Bo "Bandit" Darville and KITT in Knight Rider. By the late 2000s, though, Pontiac was fighting for relevance. Then came a car that should have ...
