As a lover of men, dresses, and men in dresses, you can imagine how excited I was to see Square Enix announce its collaboration with Play Arts Kai on a figure celebrating Cloud Strife’s crossdressing adventure in Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Fake Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Leak Sneakily Mocks Thirsty Fans
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are currently caught in a whirlwind of purported leaks, but the text on one less-than-legitimate photo sneakily mocks people fiending for any morsel of information they can get rather than providing any real info on the upcoming games.

God Of War Ragnarök's Expensive Bundles Come With Steelbook Cases, But No Discs
