    Watch Apple's Two-Hour 2016 WWDC Keynote in 7 Minutes
    For everyone bemoaning the lack of hardware announcements, it's important to remember two key factors: 1. WWDC is a conference for developers. It's about software. That's the point. Sure, they've debuted hardware at WWDC before, but it's always a bonus or an aside. The conference is for developers to learn how to create better software on Apple's platforms, and part of that is rolling out new software features. It's not like the fall announcements that focus on hardware. 2. When it comes to new ..

    Nintendo offers really stupid reasons why you can't play as a woman in The Legend of Zelda
    Nintendo is without question one of the greatest — if not the greatest — creative forces in gaming. This has been true for decades and continues to be true today, when it wowed E3 with a first look at the new Legend of Zelda. But while doing some interviews to promote the announcement, longtime Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma made some comments that show just how limited Nintendo's thinking can be. Both GameSpot and Kotaku asked Aonuma about the possibility of a Zelda game led by a female Lin..
