Over the course of our gaming lives, we've seen it all. Multiple generations worth of console wars, 3D graphics in video games, virtual reality and even Blockbuster video. Just when we thought we'd seen it all, a global pandemic breaks out, for
Hard as it may be to believe, the video game hobby as we know it has been around for nearly 50 years at this point. Just like hobbies of the past: classic cars, baseball cards or record collecting, the question always remains the same - how can
Back in 2016, the Business Casual Gamers created a series of episodes where we assessed the state of gaming for all the major players in the video game industry. As we enter 2020, we’re about to enter the next console generation, the 7th in our
All of us play games for different reasons. Sometimes we want to socialize with a group of friends over an epic raid or multiplayer deathmatch. Other times we want to master our favorite fighting game character, chase that Platinum trophy, or e
As a video game collector, you spend time pouring over Ebay listings, visiting used game stores, pre-ordering the special edition of a long-awaited game. You stare at your game collection and feel like you’ve assembled a masterpiece. But someti
The JRPG, while still popular, is a niche genre these days. Many of the best pieces of the format have been adopted in mainstream gaming as everything seems to have “RPG Elements” that made the genre stand out in the early days. While new games

Over the years, Electronic Arts—the 2nd largest video game publisher in the world—has gone from respected incubator of many must-have franchises to one of the most reviled entities in the industry. Somehow, the company has found itself in a dow
