Video Games Just Got Their Own Version Of The Onion

I’ve long hoped someone would create a site like this. And now it exists.

It’s called Point & Clickbait, and it’s the video game parody website we’ve long deserved. It’s the creation of ex-Games.on.net Editor Tim Colwill.

Games.on.net closed down recently, and I was fairly gutted. Not just because I was a fan of the site and Tim’s work, but mainly because I thought I might have seen the last of his brilliant parody articles.

Articles like, Ubisoft Game: The Review or 10 numbers that you won’t believe are less than 11.

Heading to games.on.net on April Fools day was a proper, proper adventure.

Thankfully, Tim’s awesome satirical mind has found a new home on Point & Clickbait, a site he launched today complete with a ridiculous amount of #content.

It’s pretty great. I’ve spent way, way too much time reading this site today.

Here are a few of my favourites so far…

Destiny: The Taken King – 2.1.5 Patch Notes

Notch updates his Twitter account

But really, almost every story on this site is filled with nuggets of pure gold. Well worth checking out.
