A Brief History of 'Armored Core'
Armored Core! Armored Core. Armored Core… You’re so awesome. Then sometimes you’re so what the flying frick it’s ridiculous. And it literally makes me scream sometimes because you have such potential, and you’ve shown it, to be the genre-defining mecha video game. I mean, you might be. To me you certainly are. But you have Mech Assault, Chromehounds, Titanfall, Hawken, a slew of Gundam games, and more, and even though you try your best, sometimes you’re mentioned with those names as opposed to prefacing them so often by reviewers and players alike.

Why Games Should Never Be P/C
There's been a flicker of controversy around Stardew Valley, the Life Sim / RPG farming game by Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone. It concerns a guinea pig and his treatment. One of the NPCs has a pet guinea pig who is, apparently, being kept in substandard conditions for the animal's needs.

I Am Alive (Emotionally) Because of the Game Grumps
I have been following the Game Grumps since just after their inception back in the day. My sister came up to me one day and was like, and this is not a direct quote, "These guys are cool. They're very funny. You should watch them." I did, religiously, every day for the last five years. Well, I tried to at least. Some days were harder than others. We all have times that are trying, that test our will to get up in the morning, and over the past two years, I've had a few.

The Ultimate FNAF Theory
Yes, another Five Nights at Freddy's theory. I know, it's been done to death, but bear with me, because there are some things in my theory that I have not heard addressed by the plethora of other FNAF theorists out there. I will give you fair warning, though, this article is only for those who have at least a working knowledge of the series and some of the basic lore within it. If you are not all familiar with the series, you probably won't get much out of it, as I will be making references to specific phone calls in the games, cut-scenes, and already-established theories. Throughout the article, I will abbreviate Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location simply as Sister Location, Five Nights at Freddy's 1 as FNAF 1, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 as FNAF 2, etc. So, without further delay, my ultimate FNAF theory!
