So Idris Elba is a Badass, Isn’t He? Or Why We Can’t Wait to See The Dark Tower
Have you ever watched Luther? Idris Elba takes crazy/genius to a new level. Like this scene when after he gets done winning Russian roulette, he punches the guy in the face by channeling his inner Mike Tyson. Just listen to the crunch when his punches land. Now it’s his turn to act as Roland, the Gunslinger with […]

Massive Affection for Mass Effect: Andromeda
My love affair with the Mass Effect series goes back 7 years to when Mass Effect 2 released. I vividly remember sitting on my couch in my downtown studio apartment, feet on the coffee table, watching the loading screens come and go. I didn’t go in with any preconceived notions. I was hoping it would be […]

Bars We Love: Battle & Brew
While the arcade bar has certainly skyrocketed in popularity around the country – two we love are Emporium up in Chicago along with Stella’s Lounge just around the Lake Michigan corner in Grand Rapids, MI – I guarantee you haven’t seen anything quite like Battle & Brew on the north side of Atlanta in Sandy […]

World of Warcraft’s Legion is Becoming the Expansion We Deserve
You got me. I thought it would take longer, if it would happen at all. It’s been awhile since I looked forward to having a night of WoW. Don’t get me wrong, just because I didn’t love Warlords of Draenor, it doesn’t mean I thought the game was going in a bad direction. And if you’ve […]

Expectations for Legion – The Newest World of Warcraft Expansion
Let’s face it. Warlords of Draenor was a move away from the center of World of Warcraft. While each expansion has its own flavor and spices, WoD definitely broke the palate for the casual WoW player, at least in my experience. And here’s why that wasn’t a bad thing. To begin, I’ve walked away from each of […]

Top 12 Funniest Stardew Valley Dating Tweets
What do you get when you combine Harvest Moon style gameplay with SNES-style 16-bit retro graphics? Stardew Valley, the brand new farm simulator from ConcernedApe, that has literally taken the Twitch and video game world by storm. Oh, and perhaps the coolest element about Stardew Valley: it’s also a dating simulator, so you can go […]

Games We Love: Clash Royale
Clash Royale spun off of Clash of Clans like Frasier spun off of Cheers. Granted, Clash Royale doesn’t feature a Kelsey Grammar where he psychoanalyzes your opponent to death. Although the graphic of a crazy, cartoonish Kelsey grammar a la Yuri from Red Alert 3 does come to mind. First off, it’s a fun game […]

Florida Supercon, Here We Come!
Supercon. That’s the name of it. It’s not ironic. It’s spot on. It’s Supercon! This July, LFGdating will have a booth at the Florida Supercon. Last year, over 51,000 people attended South Beach’s finest comicon, and we’re looking to surpass that number this year. We can’t wait to meet all the lovely folks down in […]

How Much Does a Twitch Streamer Make?
Ah yes, the grand old question that every gamer wonders, because it would undoubtedly be the best job on the planet: how much does a Twitch streamer really make? Just recently I came across a very intriguing blog post from Daniel Fenner, an Australian gamer who not only answered that question, but did it with […]
