A gift for the Wii U-boos Crunchyroll is pretty cool, right? I’ll admit: I don’t really know from experience. The only anime stuff I have watched lately have been Miyazaki films and theProfessor Laytonanime. But following people like our former Editor-in-Chief Dale North leads me to believe that Crunchyroll is the way to go for watching anime outside of Japan.

This is the end Hot off the heels of the release ofVersion 5.0, Nintendo has announced some very unfortunate news in regards toARMS. While balance updates will still happen, there will be no more content for the game. It’s unclear how long the balance patches will continue afterwards. It just seems way too soon to drop support.

More copies of a game out in the wild = good If you’ve ever tried to buy a really old game, you’ve probably ran into one of the following two scenarios — it’s either super cheap, like “I’ll buy five” cheap, or so expensive that you’d have to mortgage your house to pay for it. Part of the reason for the latter case is shortages. But with the dawn of the “Greatest Hits” concept, which was adopted by Sony years back and to a lesser extent, Nintendo, you can worry a little less....

PC fans, rejoice! Treyarch has announced thatCall of Duty: Black Ops IIwill support dedicated servers. I love how, by doing something that’s become pretty standard, Treyarch can make itself look good. That’s always a wonderful position to be in. The announcement was made by Cesar Stastnyon Twitter, in the briefest of ways:“Confirmed: Ranked Dedicated Servers for #BlackOps2.” I guess that’s all you need to say.
