PAR isn’t just about video games, although video games are going to provide the backbone of our coverage. We’re going to discuss everything we’re playing, watching, reading, and experiencing in the world of gaming and technology. We’re going to dig deeper, write longer, and help you to avoid wasting your time on coverage that doesn’t take these topics as seriously as you do.
PAR combines original, long-form game reporting and shorter news blasts. The latest version of The Cut points out the best in game writing and timely stories about the industry, with our own commentary about why you need to read these stories and where we feel others may have led you astray. Our core values are staying the same, but our mission has become broader.
