Ecchi the Killer You should watchPing Pong: The Animation. It’s why Lebron James realized he needed to go back to Cleveland, true story. But be warned, watching other anime after will be hard because it leaves you extra acutely aware of how mediocre and awful most anime is. Sorry,Beck.

That’s gonna look neat The next game fromVelocity 2Xmaker FuturLab isTiny Trax, a four-player PlayStation VR slot racing game with lane switching, boosting, and drifting. It’s designed in such a way to make players feel as if they are “a child surrounded by a giant toy racing track inside each virtual world.” Good idea, right? I’m consistently terrible at top-down racing games — always have been, always will be! — but something tells me it’ll be easier here with the sense of depth and presence inherent to virtual reality....

Thanks to an aid group called Cause, soldiers at the Walter Reed Medical Center have monthly get togethers of healing, fun, and not so surprising… video games. Although somewhat of an afterthought now, video games weren’t always part of the program. You see, back in 2003 when the group first came to be, Cause was more focused on supplying recovering soldiers with day-to-day necessities. It wasn’t until executive director Barbara Lau noticed that the then humble video game lending library was gaining in popularity — she realized they had something big on their hands....

Outside of the Marvel’sAvengersfilms, many solo hero outings are often plagued by one question: Where are the other heroes? The Avengers make their home in New York City, but do they show up inMarvel’s Spider-Man 2? The Avengers and many Marvel heroes make New York their main base of operations. Even in Insomniac’s swing-tastic game, the superhero group has its own landmark. It’s hard to miss. Avengers Tower can be seen looming over the city in the Upper East Side....
