August 8th, 2019You know what the say: sometimes good things come in threes! Over the last two weeks I've covered my favorite boss battles in World of Warcraft and The Legend of Zelda, and today we're talking some of the most epic and grueling boss fights ever, from Studio MDHR's smash hit, Cuphead!
As I've covered before, challenging boss fights are...
July 11th, 2019Sea of Thieves, from longtime fan favorite developer Rare, set sail on some rough seas when it first launched. But since its maiden voyage, the game has seen some incredible support, cementing it as the pirate fantasy game many have always wanted!
Today's video vault showcases the updates featured in the recent Sea of Thieves...
July 3rd, 2019In honor of July's BAMF Loot Gaming Crate, today I'm talking about the biggest badasses in video games!
BAMF, of course, stands for... Well, it let's just say it stands for someone that's maximum amounts of badassery, and fortunately for us there is no shortage of awesome butt-kickers in video game history. There's a lot to choose from...
June 21st, 2019Battle for Azeroth, World of Warcraft's seventh expansion, has been a rollercoaster ride, to say the least!
BFA has been a polarizing expansion to say the list; including (but not limited to) the controversial burning of Teldrassil, the overall vilification of Sylvanas Windrunner, and the somewhat unsuccessful Azerite Armor system. That...
June 14th, 2019E3 has come and gone, and boy oh boy it did not disappoint!
We're nearly halfway through 2019, and it's been one hell of a year so far for gamers everywhere, and this year only got better for us with E3's showing this year. I came into the show feeling a bit skeptical, seeing big names like Sony and Activision not be involved as they...
June 13th, 2019E3 may still have one more day to go, but we've had ourselves one doozy of a show so far!
We've had some expected releases and news that pretty much everyone knew was coming, but we've also had some pretty rad announcements that have come as quite the surprise too. I've had the pleasure of getting to attend quite a bit of the show so...
June 7th, 2019Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls... E3 is right around the corner, and I couldn't be more jazzed! But that isn't stopping some of the biggest names in gaming jumping in and getting things kicked off in a really big way already!
The week before E3 is almost always this major calm before the storm for gamers everywhere; a week where...
June 6th, 2019Father's Day is right around the corner, and as the resident Dad of the Daily Crate team, I figured it was my duty to put together another one of my patented "Best of" gaming lists! This time around, in honor of all you kick ass dads out there, I'm talking about the Best Dads in gaming!
Now, let me just say that these dads might not be...
May 30th, 2019"Become what you must... Become, the Warrior of Darkness!" Look, I don't know what gets you hyped up, but if you're anything like me, then epic cinematic trailers with kick-ass lines like that Warrior of Darkness one is a surefire way to get my blood pumping.
You combine that with a bevy of improvements to the game, new jobs to play,...
May 16th, 2019The flames of war are burning brighter than ever in World of Warcraft's Battle for Azeroth expansion!
It has been a hot minute since I've been here discussing the trials and tribulations of Sylvanas' despicable actions as Warchief of the Horde, or about the epic faceoffs with the various "Warbringers" I covered at the start of the...

May 9th, 2019You might be wondering why I think Big Trouble in Little China is on a short list of my favorite movies of all time. My long answer is because it's visually impressive, funny, action-packed, and overall just a damn good time. The short answer? It's all in the reflexes.
Kidding aside, I really do have John Carpenter's Big Trouble in...
May 2nd, 2019When it comes to video games, sometimes the NEMESIS is the best part of the whole dang thing. You can have an engrossing story, great characters that you really care about, along with innovative gameplay and mechanics - but if you have a crappy villain or antagonist, then the whole thing can just fall flat in the end.
There are more...
April 25th, 2019We are officially in the Endgame now, as Marvel's epic Avengers adventure is coming to a historic and epic conclusion tonight with the release of the much-anticipated Avengers: Endgame.

April 9th, 2019Winter is here. For fans of the hit HBO television show Game of Thrones, we've been waiting over nine years to see how this epic journey would end (and it's been much longer for those of us that have been reading George R.R. Martin's books). But this Sunday, April 14th, we will finally begin the final season of GOT.
Over the last nine...
April 4th, 2019PAX East in Boston is one of the biggest gaming events in the world, and consistently showcases some of the raddest things coming to the world of gaming - whether it's AAA titles, indie gems, VR, or tabletop. And fortunately for us, 2019 was more of the same, as PAX East delivered yet another incredible show.
Penny Arcade's PAX shows...
March 21st, 2019I love Godzilla. I have always loved Godzilla, even through the ups and downs of campy flicks and odd reboots (I'm looking at you, Roland Emmerich).
I love the classics, I love the deep cuts, and I even love the Blue Oyster Cult song, which if you're curious has actually never even been in a Godzilla movie – but I digress. In honor of...

Educrated is a show that dives into some of the franchises we love and would love to share with you. Through fun facts, trivia, and employee interaction, today we’ll show you why Loot Crate is as deeply nerdy as you're gonna get about...
February 26th, 2019You have to hand it to Overwatch, they really do make releasing new heroes exciting!
The lore and backstory that they introduce with every new character is always so deep and so much fun to enjoy - and it makes me REALLY wish they could make some kind of story mode because hot damn some of these reveal videos have more fleshed out...
