Poll How Would You Grade Capcom's E3 2021 Showcase?
Is that it?
So Capcom's E3 Showcase has been and gone and, erm, it didn't really bring a lot. In all fairness, they delivered exactly what they said they would, but even then, nothing seemed substantially new.

Poll How Full Is Your Xbox Series X|S Internal Storage?
Are you running out of space yet?
One of the big topics on everyone's mind leading up to the launch of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S was the amount (or lack thereof) of internal storage, and whether we'd all run out of space within weeks.

It's hard to believe we're now almost three full months into the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S's lifespans, and one of the most talked about features of the new consoles so far has been their game-switching 'Quick Resume' abilities.

Poll Will We See A New Banjo-Kazooie Game In 2021 Or Beyond?
Or will they remain locked away with Gruntilda?
The bird and bear have been absent on Xbox systems for what feels like a lifetime now, with very little mention outside of 2008's Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. The pair made an appearance again in 2015 as part of Rare Replay, but only to serve as bundling the original Nintendo 64 games into its...
