It's Turkey month!
You know, the holiday that stores ignore for the gifty month.
I knew one store, they were pushing Christmas right after Easter.

A lot of folks talk about a war against Christmas.

One of the comments was:

Couldn't you have them play video games together instead?

Video games and chill, folks. Sex exists, deal with it.

Still not dead. Just... Enveloped in red dead 2 since christmas

As the name suggests, the game takes place in Vault 76 in the year 2102. Vault 76, unlike other Vaults, is a controlled Vault, meaning that no experiments will take place. As according to the Vault Archives in Fallout 3's Citadel where The Brotherhood of Steel is situated in Washington D.C., Vault 76's door was forced to open as an intentional plan to allow the vault dwellers outside into The Wasteland to reclaim it and begin rebuilding civilization. This was known as Reclamation Day.

Another surprise from last night's video game news. We're getting a video game for Blade, the vampire hunter of the Marvel Universe.

From the same studio who gave us "Dishonored" and "Deathloop". I'd like to think that this means the Daywalker is in good hands.
