Tiny, arguably insignificant details in Star Wars are like the final dusting of paprika on a freshly deviled egg. It may not be the most important aspect, but the whole experience wouldn't be the same without it. Today's example is no different, albeit perhaps less of a smoky paprika and more of a subtle turmeric.

After the recent release of Obsidian Entertainment's RPG Pentiment on PlayStation 4 and 5, gamers have noticed one hilarious oversight with this version of the game.

Elden Ring, Sekiro, and the Dark Souls trilogy can be darkly comedic at times when grueling boss battles are cut short by unbelievably bad luck or when enemies ragdoll after giving you a fine beating. But the games' creative director doesn't aim to make these games "funny," which kinda makes them funnier.

My experience with Warhams isn't flat zero - I had some minifigs when I was a teenager and played a few of the Dawn Of War video games - but I haven't actively checked in on it for a while. I know enough to make "[x] for the [x] throne!" jokes, basically. My experience with cleaning-stuff-sim PowerWash Simulator is extensive, though, and I was excited when the crossover with Warhammer 40K was teased a while back. Last night we got a full trailer and release date of Frebruary 27th - next week! - and I'm now earnestly very excited. The trailer is both very funny and shows off massive things to clean. Win win, innit.

The latest major update for No Man's Sky introduces a new expedition-exclusive starship, which some players have realized includes an entertaining reference to the first title ever published by the game's developer, Hello Games.

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered boasts some pretty good-looking 4K textures, but one player found that the downside of the ultra-high-resolution images is that they've been stuffed with some lorem ipsum details. Although The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered has been subjected to some criticism, this little «issue» is at least on the harmless and funny side.

T-Pain has revealed that he is working on Grand Theft Auto VI.

A funny Elden Ring clip made its way online recently, showing a player’s encounter with a skeleton whose moves are amusingly similar to that of a Tarnished. The many enemies of Elden Ring tend to be full of surprises, usually of the deadly variety, but in a nice change of pace, this one instead replicated something most players have done at least once or twice during their time in the Lands Between, that being spamming dodge rolls.

Japanese players seem to be enjoying the way Baldur’s Gate 3 depicts nudity or rather the way it doesn’t.

Call of Duty is one of the most-played Activision games which includes an interesting battleground for players with attractive graphics, high player skills, amazing weapons, and more.

To take matters into its hands, Activision announced a new trick called 'Splat', which will spot these cheaters. And it is quite funny. What CoD will do is cut their parachutes in mid-flight so they hit the ground hard - with a splat! Know more about this Splat feature.

Blizzard has gone to great lengths explaining how Diablo 4 Season 2 will make the RPG's gajillion numbers more satisfying, and it sounds like a good update, but it seems the studio didn't spend quite enough time double-checking the numbers in a new seasonal trailer which was so amazingly incorrect that it had to be taken down.

Baldur’s Gate III has only been out for a few days, but developer Larian Studios is already issuing a second hotfix for the game. The update fixes a number of crashes and progress blockers, including a number of instances of save games not loading properly, but the fixes that are going to catch most people’s attention of a more… delicate… nature. Apparently, some Githyanki are having a problem keeping it in their pants, literally, as certain penis options were clipping through characters’ trousers. Also, it seems male Gnome sorcerers were going commando under their robes. Larian’s really putting the balls in Baldur’s Gate it seems.

Diablo 4 is all about the grind, which in game parlance is known as the Seasonal Journey: Completing various objectives to advance your character through multiple chapters that collectively tell the tale of the season. The first season, Season of the Malignant, is now underway, and a clever redditor named Gumby785 has figured out a way to save a big chunk of time along the way.
