I picked up developer Playdead's INSIDE a few years ago when I had a gift card burning a hole in my pocket, but never actually started it for whatever reason. It was always hanging over my head, and I thought there was no better time to play it than while quarantined at home. I thoroughly enjoyed it; so much so that I made a point to get 100% of the trophies. I highly recommend everyone check it out if you're remotely interested in puzzle-platformers; it is truly one of a kind.

If you care about video games, care about the people who make them, too
So when I sat down to write this week's column, flicking through my chaotic mental scrapbook of memories and ideas, everything seemed so… trivial, I guess. This console looks so funny, lol. This game isn't coming to consoles, wah. How can I keep touting the wonders and delights of gaming when those wonders and delights seem to come at such a cost?

Remember when those The Last Of Us Part II leaks first emerged ? It was initially rumoured the leaks came from a former employee, someone angered by alleged "crunch culture" – the long, punishing working hours mandated by management that exploits the passion of artists. The video game industry's crunch is an open secret. We're getting better at talking about it, sure, but not tackling it. Not stopping it. Not opposing it.
Quite a lot has been going on:
Should You Play this Video Games ETF? | Kiplinger
Global X Video Games & Esports ETF is one of a handful of funds that allow investors to cash in on that growth. HERO sports a tight portfolio of 40 firms involved in developing, publishing, distributing or streaming video games, producing related hardware, or operating e-sports leagues or teams.

In this article, however, we going to concentrate on how video gaming, rather than dulling our senses, enhances out cognitive abilities. We can benefit from gaming in several ways, particularly concerning decision-making, concentration, perception, and memory. Researchers put together numerous test groups that were made up of non-gamers. These non-gamers were then split into two groups, with one group tasked with playing video games for a set number of hours per day for a set number of days.
PHT remembers video games: Sony made a surprisingly long series of hockey/NHL games
Every week, PHT will spotlight hockey video games you might not have heard of, ones you fondly recall, and ones we'd all like to forget. This time around, we'll look back at the surprisingly sprawling run of hockey video games from Sony.
Zooming out, Sony pumped out a really staggering legacy of … well, largely hockey forgettable video games.
Released on 16-bit consoles (Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo), Sega CD, and computers in late 1994, Sony Imagesoft put out what would be far from the last hockey video game with ESPN branding. It seemed like a pretty ambitious title for its era. Though maybe I'm an easy mark because of that sweet ESPN hockey theme kicking this video off:
