Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. isnāt a beta...
Ā Ā Today Bethesda announced the release date for the Fallout 76 Break-It Early Test Application(B.E.T.A.) coming out on Xbox One first on October 23rd, and PS4 and PC on October 30th. As excited as I am to play the B.E.T.A. to see how the game works and the changes from Fallout 4, this isnāt a beta. The fact that the game releases on November 14th, about a month after the B.E.T.A. release, I think this is more of a demo if anything. I donāt think many if anything will be changed upon the final release. This B.E.T.A. is probably for Bethesda to test out servers and connection between players. I just find an annoyance that Bethesda waited SOOOOOOOO LONG to drop the B.E.T.A. for eager players like myself! I also want to address another beef I have, this one being a more generalized thing with the gaming share-space. I HATE GAMES WITH PRE-ORDER BETA ACCESS! Isnāt the point of a beta to try a game to see if you like it or not? Are gamers just forced to pay five dollars in order to get a demo?!? Before I get too lost on this tangent, letās talk more about the Fallout 76 B.E.T.A.
Ā Ā Although I am mad at Bethesda for delaying the B.E.T.A. until October, it is nice that all progression from the B.E.T.A. will carry-over to the full game! Not to mention, betas are generally an AWESOME thing! Many triple-A games will be shown off to media at multiple different events, some of which not giving the public a fair chance to try them out. Betas are the best way of alleviating this situation, providing players with a natural, comfortable way to try out the game. I donāt hate Fallout 76, I am looking forward to the B.E.T.A., Iām just mad itās coming SOOOOOOOOO LATE!!! Bethesda SHOULD HAVE put this out a few months ago for players and influencers to promote the game and show what truly makes it special! Bethesda is also known to have many MANY bugs and glitches in theirs games, so putting this out earlier could alive pressure to deal with those. Not to mention the B.E.T.A.ās release is right along side the release of Rockstarās Red Dead Redemption 2, meaning this game is surely going to be lost in the sandstorm. Luckily the release of Fallout 76 will be a few weeks after Red Dead 2, so it will definitely find an audience!
Ā Ā TIME TO START THE RAGE!!! š” Every game that has a pre-order beta access feature is just plain stupid!!! ...although I canāt even be mad at them. Again, I believe a beat/demo is designed for players to test out the game to see if they like a product or not. I donāt like how developers make it so that players need to basically pay five dollars to try out their product. Iāve played many betas back in my day that only required an online sign-up or were just available on the online stores. I do understand that I might be sounding a bit spoiled. Developers DONāT need to create betas like these, and Iām sure they in fact do take a lot of time and money. And I also understand the purpose of pre-order bonuses, they help make money and show interest in upcoming games developers, share-holders and the stores selling the games. They are also an incentive to make players NEED to pre-order, like creating an exclusive item that wonāt be available unless you pre-order. I didnāt mean to make this blog about pre-order bullshit, so Iām gonna let it go for now and say,ā Iām not a fan!ā Iāll be playing the Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. as Iāve already pre-purchased the game for my PC(THEY GOT ME PEOPLE!), so Iāll be sure report back on if I like it or not. I am a HUGE Fallout and Bethesda fan, so I am really looking forward to Fallout 76 and future games! Letās just hope sometime in my lifetime Iāll get Elder Scrolls 6 š
Smash Bros. Ultimate Special Edition Box Art Speculation
Ā Ā About a week ago, Amazon revealed the official box art for the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Special Edition. Besides the box art being nice and snazzy, it revealed small boxes of character portraits on the right side. Many people speculate that the other side of the box contains the rest of the characters not shown. But whatās even more interesting is that the artwork contains a small section at the bottom that are black, almost as if there were characters missing? Many people think that there are roughly 3-4 more characters yet to be revealed in order for the artwork on the box to be complete. I donāt know how I feel about this. I can see the black areas being filled with more characters, but does this necessarily mean that we will only be getting 3-4 more new characters? Iām at a lose of thoughts because the game is almost out (LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AWAY!!!) and there canāt be that many more characters left to reveal. Perhaps box art is true and there is only 3-4 characters left... but who could they be???
Ā Ā If you havenāt been following my past blogs, hello! My nameās Corey and Iām a HUUUUUUUGE Smash Bros. fan! That means Iām always following leaks and rumors for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, yes, even the obscure silly ones! I will say what my 4 characters I can see being released with the launch of Smash Ultimate. Again, DLC will be a thing for this game, so keep that in mind and take this all with a grain of salt as my uncle doesnāt in fact work at Nintendo. In terms of new characters and Echo fighters, I see 2 new character and 2 Echos. The Echos that have been the most highly requested that Iāve seen on most forums and videos is Ken from Street Fighter and Shadow from Sonic the Hedgehog. Ken is an easy palette swap for Ryu and they could probably give him a different dragon punch with flames, as well as change some of his normals. Shadow again is a easy choice, and has been highly speculated considering he hasnāt been shown as an Assist Trophy. Shadowās changes would maybe include some sort of chaos control move, and possibly different normals too. There are many other Echo fighter requests out there, but Ken and Shadow are the 2 I see most likely happening.Ā Ā
Ā Ā And now for the most controversial point of this article. THE 2 NEW CHARACTERS I THINK WILL BE IN THE LAUNCH OF SUPER SMASH BROS. ULTIMATE! Incineroar from Pokemon Sun & Moon and Geno from Super Mario RPG! Now letās break these picks down! In every new iteration of Smash Bros., there is always a new Pokemon character from the series. Even though Sun & Moon are in the past, they are stillĀ ānewā games, and Nintendo will add Incineroar to continue to promote the 3DS and games. Not to mention, Incineroar has been highly rumored by many credible Smash Ultimate leakers and I think his inclusion would be awesome! Incineroar is basically a luchador, so he could have grapples and body drops! Geno is a bit of a stretch but I think it will happen! Geno is one of the last highly requested characters for the Smash Bros. series since Super Smash Bros. Brawl! Considering the trend of Smash Ultimate catering to the fanbase, I think Sakurai and the rest of the development team will try their best to add Geno in, and will succeed! Not to mention, Geno would be a pretty awesome fighter, with interesting moves from his finger blasters and spells! Thereās still a few months left, so if Iām wrong, donāt send your hate this way! But I do hope all these characters make it in! Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is supposed to be the ULTIMATE Smash Bros. game for everyone, and I KNOW it will deliver! I donāt even care if these characters donāt make it in and someone like Shrek or Goku make it in. Letās have fun with it yāall! And just remember... DONāT TRUST THE BOX!!!
WOOOOOOOW!!! We've come a LONG WAY! What a beautiful art piece for the cover. I love the nods to the original Kingdom Hearts box art! ššā¤
Isabelleās Destructive Cuteness!
Ā Ā Itās been a few days since Isabelle from Animal Crossing was revealed to be a brand new character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and the internet is going crazy over it! The memes are the realest people, too damn funny!!! But whatās not funny is the amount of hate this character has got. Many fans of Smash Bros. were upset to see Isabelle as a brand new character instead of an Echo fighter for Villager. While I can understand why some are mad, I feel like this hate is unjustly deserved. While I know the hype for new characters like Skull Kid, Isaac and Geno are through the fucking roof, Isabelle offers freshness in form of wackiness that the other newcomers donāt have. The gameās director Masahiro Sakurai is also known to add characters that would unconventionally be in a fighting game, great examples being Wii Fit Trainer and R.O.B. Isabelle doesnāt deserve the hate sheās getting, and I canāt wait to see her duke it out with the rest of Nintendoās all-stars!
Ā Ā While we didnāt get to see too many of Isabelleās moves in action, letās talk about what Nintendo did show us. Her initial reveal trailer shows about 30-seconds of her in action. As is usual fashion, here we get a look at her smash attacks as well as her special moves! Her F-Smash is a party popper with a decent sized hitbox, her Up-Smash is a Stop-sign that comes outs of the ground and her Down-Smash begins her āCloneā appearance. It appears to be similar to the Villagerās Down-Smash in terms of size, the difference here is instead of a shovel and a digging effect, Isabelle uses a bucket to splash water which appears to have the same push effect as Marioās F.L.U.D.D. special move. Before I begin to talk about how sheās a Clone rather than an Echo, letās talk about her special moves! Her Neutral-B is like Villagerās Pocket, and at this point, itās not known if it has any other properties than Villagerās. Her Down-B,also similar to Villagerās, has her plant a Lloid rocket in the ground that she can than launch up in the air whenever sheād like. Her Up-B is a small balloon chair that she swings on to elevate herself and with each swing the balloons begin to inflate and eventually pop with enough jumps. Her most interesting move is her Side-B, being a fishing rod she launches out that can grab enemies and pull them forward as well as grab the stage to help her recover. Most of her aerials and tilts have yet to be shown, so Iām sure weāll learn more about Isabelle as time goes on.
Ā Ā Isabelle is closer to a Clone is Smash terms rather than an Echo fighter. As I explained in the previous section, she does share a variety of moves with the Villager, just mixed-up a bit. Iām honestly okay with this because I always prefer a different move-set or a changed one rather than the same. It adds more variety to the overall game yah know?! And to all those Isabelle haters... Thereās still PLENTY of time for more characters to be added to the game. I know weāre getting closer and closer to release, but we definitely have 3 to 4 other new fighters on the way! Considering this Smash seems to be the most community influenced in the series, Iād be SHOCKED to not see characters like Skull Kid, Isacc and Geno not all make it in. AND IF YOU THINK THIS GAME ISNāT GETTING DLC, THAN YOUāRE CRAZY!!! Weāre getting the base version of Smash Ultimate on December 7th, who knows whatās to come in the next few years? I know Iām ready and willing to hop on Sakuraiās crazy hype train! Speaking of 3 to 4 new characters... Isnāt there some rumors about box art or something??? (hint hint, new blog coming soon)
Nintendo Direct 9.13.19 was a Delight!
Ā Ā Yesterday Nintendo yet again blew up the internet with a brand new Direct, highlighting brand new and previously announced games coming to the Nintendo 3DS and Switch! The Direct was announced the day prior to the stream as was the launch date for Nintendoās Online Service, which is September 18th, 2018! The Direct was 35 minutes long and really put an emphasis on new Switch games coming out next year. Not only were fans greeted to more info about their current anticipated Switch games like Super Mario Party and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but we also found out about many new projects like Luigiās Mansion 3 and Animal Crossing for Switch! Overall, I found this Direct to be quite good, delivering Switch news for fans of all Nintendoās properties. I know some fans arenāt excited for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Thatās crazy right?!?) whereby this Direct showed brand new titles from familiar developers as well as new entries in classic Nintendo Intellectual Properties(IPs). Nintendo also did a great job of clearly explaining most of the features of Nintendo Online Service. Highest of praises for Nintendo with this Direct, they really hit a home-run with all the announcements of new and old games!
Ā Ā The announcements started off strong with a trailer for a brand new Luigiās Mansion on Switch, Luigiās Mansion 3! I do find this title funny, as there was never a true Luigiās Mansion 2 š That being said, the game looks great! I canāt really point out anything new as Iāve never played any Luigiās Mansion, but it visually looks great and the gameplay looks fun. After this, they moved on to the 3DS segment, at which-point I tuned completely out! I had the luxury of watching the Direct after the live-stream and I donāt care about the 3DS at this point. Nintendo than had an update for Splatoon 2, showing off more maps, weapons and clothing being added to the game! I think this is awesome for those hardcore fans of Splatoon 2, itās great to see Nintendo support an older game like this. Although, it is only a year old, thatās not really that old... Mario Tennis Aces will also be getting more support via new character, new co-op modes, as well as hats that can be unlocked by doing specific challenges! Nintendo also said this game will be supported until next June too! Perfect for players who decide to purchase the game later. Nintendo added another WiiU port to itās list of many in the form of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. U Deluxe will add a new playable character Toadette, who will transform into Princess Peach with a power-up, giving her a levitate ability as well as a mid-air jump! This Deluxe version will also combine the original game and New Super Luigi U.
Ā Ā Moving into a non-Nintendo game, Katamari Damacy is getting a remake called Katamari Damacy ReRoll. ReRoll will be launching this Winter 2018 and will feature HD graphics, motion controls, HD rumble and a multiplayer option allowing each player to use one Joy-Con. Iām excited for this one as Iāve never got a chance to play Katamari Damacy and have heard nothing but great things! Nintendo than went on to discuss the feature of Nintendo Online Service, including online play, the NES games library, cloud saves, new feature with the phone app and special offers! The NES library will continue to have titles added to it,(most likely weekly) cloud saves are used in case of a Switch being destroyed or lost,(although not all games support clod saves) the phone app now will allow for a voice-chat service similar to that of a Xbox Party-Chat(although idk why you would wanna use that when you could just idk... CALL THEM ON THE PHONE?!?) and no one knows what the special offers include. Iād guess these will be discounts on games in the eShop, maybe bonus player icons or themes if those are a thing. Nintendo also showed off NES-style Joycons, literally a wireless remade version of a NES controller that snap to the side of the Switch. Youāll be able to buy two NES Joy-cons for $60 sometime in the future, and I think these things are a bit expensive but pretty neat! Nintendo than talked a bit about their upcoming games for this holiday season including Pokemon Letās Go Pikachu and Eevee, Super Mario Party and Diablo 3 Eternal Collection! Nintendo than revealed a brand new IP called Town(Working Title) from GAME FREAK Inc. the creators of Pokemon! I LOVED this game, itās got a unique cartoony art-style and looks to be a fun JRPG!Ā
Ā Ā Nintendo showed off more of Daemon X Machina, showing off a lot of gameplay as well as online co-op. Another great Switch game coming out in 2019! Speaking of 2019 games, Nintendo finally revealed the title of the new Yoshi game for the Switch, Yoshiās Crafted World. Crafted World is a 2D to 3D platformer, using the same art-style as Wooly World but expanding it with much more pieces of arts and crafts, as well as allowing the players to twist and turn the world to find new areas to explore! More Starlink: Battle for Atlas was shown with more Star Fox content, including Star Wolf content hinted at down the road. A highlight reel was shown of other upcoming games this holiday season including The World Ends With You: Final Mix, Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country, Just Dance 2019, Sonic Team Racing and much MUCH more! Nintendo than dedicated a who segment for Final Fantasy, WHICH IT RIGHTFULLY DESERVED! Square Enix announced a MASSIVE amount of Final Fantasy remakes coming to the Switch, as well as a new game in the Chocobo Mystery Dungeon series titled Chocoboās Mystery Dungeon Everybody. As we near the end of the Direct, Nintendo unveiled a brand new Switch bundle, featuring Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as the theme. This Switch comes with an exclusive Smash Bros. themed dock as well as Smash Bros. themed Joy-cons, and will come with a copy of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate pre-installed. (AND BOY OH BOY DOES THIS BABY LOOK GOOOOOOOD š) The Direct ends with a trailer which appears to be Animal Crossing for the Switch, only to then switch(lol) to being a Smash Bros. trailer for the newcomer Isabelle! Isabelle is a brand new character(Not an Echo fighter, although she seems to share some move with the Villager) and she looks adorable and great! Iāll have more to say about her in another blog as this oneās getting a bit long. The trailer than ends with another trailer revealing A BRAND NEW ANIMAL CROSSING GAME COMING TO THE SWITCH IN 2019!!!Ā
Ā Ā What a way to end the Direct? WHAT A PERFECT DIRECT?!?! I think Nintendo hit every note on this one, giving all audiences of the Switch something to look forward to! Nintendo is still on a roll with the Switch! I think Nintendo has a strong year ahead of them with the many new announced games as well a previously announced ones. I love that Nintendo integrates these Directs throughout the year. I feel like it seems like Nintendo allows us to see whatās behind the curtain, unlike the rest of the gaming companies. I really CANāT complain about this Direct, it was fantastic, although I just have one blaring question for Nintendo... Whereās Metroid? (Iām kidding, Iām kidding! Iām very grateful for Animal Crossing and Luigiās Mansion 3!)
Call of Duty Blackout Mode looks Awesome!
Ā Ā This week, Call of Dutyās battle royale mode called Blackout went live in beta to all those who pre-ordered the game! Blackout looks to be similar to Pubg in terms of gameplay, with more vehicle options available as well as usable perks that degrade over a period of time. Blackout seems like the perfect balance between a battle royale and Call of Duty. Many players were very hesitant that Treyarch was making a battle royale mode to just follow in on the money wagon. But to many players surprise, Blackout seems to be a functioning, fun battle royale mode! This mode was so popular, it even beat out Fortnite in viewer count on Twitch during itās initial launch.Ā As popular as itās success, it is still hard to determine if Blackout will have a long standing with the other battle royales. Thereās a lot of factors going against Blackout, mainly it not being free like Fortnite and the potential of dlc being a hindrance towards accessibility. I personally see Blackout becoming a new contender in the battle royale pool and hope it lasts a LONG time!
Ā Ā Blackout starts off like any other battle royale. Players will spawn on helicopters that pass over a small island, as they chose when to drop out and pick an area to land. One thing different straight from the get-go is Blackoutās player count of only 80 players. As some people might see this as a drawback to other battle royales, I think Blackout is balanced at 80 players. Due to the natural high-pace action of Call of Duty, Blackout seems to hit itās stride with a slightly lower player count. Not to mention, maybe Call of Duty canāt necessarily handle the increase of players on a huge map. This is the first time Call of Duty has implemented a battle royale after all! Youāll use a wingsuit to glide onto your destination, hunting for weapons and armor to arm yourself for the multiple fights that ensue! Another cool thing about Blackout is the love and attention to previous Call of Duty titles. The map in Blackout is made up of classic Black Ops multiplayer and zombies maps, and each are re-created to a point! The zombies areas even have zombies that you can kill to gain some extra pieces of loot! Youāll be running and driving to the each circle as the map slowly shrinks in order to speed-up the action of the game! The map itself in the other areas seem really well designed too! Lots of natural cover and advantage points, spreading across small towns and natural vistas.Ā
Ā Ā The combat of Blackout seems to look like what youād expect. There is still a quick, hectic, twitch-paced gun fights of Call of Duty at the beginning, but as the match goes on, it turns into more of a battle royale mode where each move must be precise in order to survive and take advantage of your opponents. I was actually surprised to see how the guns of Call of Duty would handle at extremely long distances, it seems like thereās a bit of drop, but most of the guns are still very accurate like a laser beam. Speaking of laser beams, the weapons of the game are all the new guns added to Black Ops 4, with some fun additions like two retro guns from zombies mode as well as the Raygun from zombies! And all the weapons seem to be balanced pretty well, with the right attachments, anything can be a quick killing machine! In addition to the variety of weapons, Blackout mode features some equipment that is used by the specialists in Black Ops 4 multiplayer. You can use barbed wire as a trap, you can use the RC-XD as a BIG explosive, you can even use a grappling hook to quickly move around environments! The pace of gunfights are all effected by perks, armor and health, changing the players overall health and damage resistance. There seem to be a lot of cool perks in the game, like one that allows you to see enemy vehicles and equipment, as well as one that allows you to move faster while crouched or prone. Again, the perks are consumables that ware off after a period of time, so they arenāt broken. It was also odd to see vehicles in Call of Duty, but they all seemed fine in the long run. I think thereās a lot of fun and variety with all the different toys they put in this game, and I think thatās one of the reasons this could rock with the battle royales. As long as Treyarch continues to support this and update it constantly, Blackout WILL stand-out and become a new force to match Fortnite and Pubg!
Kingdom Hearts 3 Big Hero 6 Reveal Trailer
Trailer HERE: LINK
Today, Iāve honestly had a bit of a mental block as of what to talk about. Since the Tokyo Game Show is just around corner, a few games have been getting some brand new trailers! One upcoming game that I am VERY excited for is Kingdom Hearts 3, and today it received a new trailer showcasing the Big Hero 6 world! This game is STUNNING, as is the new world! Neo Tokyo is a hybrid of Tokyo and San Fransico, and from the brief look in the trailer, it seems like most of the city will be explorable. The new keyblade themed around Big Hero 6 also looks like a lot of fun to use, transforming into a big sword/bat that knocks enemies to pieces! Besides giving fans a taste of the new world, we also got a glimpse at some of the other previously shown worlds, some more Gummi ship gameplay, as well as a crumb of story. The very brief story at the end REALLY has me more intrigued as to WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN KINGDOM HEARTS 3! Now, letās break down this very short 1 minute and 40 second video and see if we canāt figure out who kills Xehanort.Ā
Ā Ā As I stated earlier, the trailer starts off with a battle between the heroes of Big Hero 6 against some heartless. Sora, Donald and Goofy are about to intervene when they are stopped by Baymax and Hiro, as they introduce themselves and explain the threat attacking Neo Tokyo. Of course theyāre heartless and Hiro explains that his other team members are currently in the city fighting them off. Itās up to Sora and friends to team up with Baymax and Hiro to meet up with his teammates and defeat the heartless menus at hand! Neo Tokio is honestly my favorite of the new worlds shown in Kingdom Hearts 3! I am a fan of Big Hero 6, but that aside, itās a beautifully imagined futuristic city popping with life and color! The keybalde transformations look like a great way to freshen up gameplay, and this new Big Hero 6 keyblade adds to the fun factor! Shotlock was also breifly shown in the trailer, and I donāt know if they confirmed this, but it seems like each keyblade will have unique Shotlock looks and powers? (Just speculation) A chunk of gameplay was devoted to Gummi ship gameplay, but I donāt have much to say on that, other than it looks more interesting than previous Gummi ship levels. The levels look more open, almost adding a 3-dimensional area reminding me of a Star Fox level. (Didnāt think Iād be comparing Kingdom Hearts 3 to Star Fox...) Again, these are my LEAST favorite bits of Kingdom Hearts games but they did seem MUCH BETTER this time around.Ā
Ā Ā So letās talk about the brief five second clip at the end of the trailer where Vanitas starts his monologue. In this portion, cutscenes are flashed at a rapid pace as he says,ā Only when your hopes have been broken by battle upon battle... can the key to Kingdom Hearts be claimed.ā The scenes shown highlight multiple main villains of the Kingdom Hearts series and end with a potential hint as whatās to come. The second to last shot in particular shows Sora, Donald and Mickey standing in what looks to be the Keyblade Graveyard from Birth by Sleep, reminiscent of the original hidden trailer for Birth by Sleep. I wonder when this takes place? I wonder if that is Xehanort across from them? I wonder if this is truly the Keyblade Graveyard? The other thing I found interesting is the part of the flashes when Sora is reaching for Aquaās Masterās Defender keyblade. I thought this was cool as this was the FIRST teaser trailer shown for Kingdom Hearts 3 over 4 years ago. So old that Kingdom Hearts 3 was still in itās old engine! But more importantly, what does this mean for the story? Is Aqua somehow safe somewhere and not truly lost to the darkness? Will Sora be able to use the Masterās Defender keyblade somehow? Weāll just have to wait until January 29, 2019 to find out just WHAT THE HELL is happening in this game. AND IāM BEYOND HYPE TO SEE IT!!! On our final note, LOOK AT DARK AQUA! Sheās still awesome! š
Battlefield V Beta First Impressions: War never felt so GOOD
Ā Ā The Battlefield V multiplayer open beta just dropped this week and has LITERALLY TAKEN OVER MY LIFE! I donāt know if you noticed, but I havenāt been posting as many blogs as I normally do a week because of this game. Battlefield V feels SOOOOOO DAMN GOOD!!! I know itās just a beta, thereās a limited amount of weapons and maps, BUT THATāS NOT STOPPING ME FROM SPENDING ALL MY FREE TIME PLAYING IT! Personally, Battlefield V feels like the natural evolution from Battlefield 1. I was a bit worried that Battlefield V would be too similar to itās predecessor, but quite the contrary, feeling different and fresh! The gameplay is what you expect from a Battlefield game. A less series war simulator, with tons of chaos and fun to be had! Battlefield V was a game I wasnāt too excited fro prior to this beta, but now I have seen the light and CANāT WAIT to dive head first into the full release!Ā
Ā Ā For those Battlefield veterans, the gameplay again is something familiar to you all. Movement feels a bit more fluid and slightly faster, with more options including crawling on your back to fire, as well as rolls that you can do on the ground to avoid dangerous situations. You can also be physically knocked back if you come in contact with a massive explosion. For example, the one game-mode has you arming bombs in order to win. Stand to close to the bomb when it explodes and you will be knocked back onto the ground on your back, making you have to get back up. This is an interesting change, making it somewhat more realistic and a bit strategic. Defenders wonāt be able to simply rush a point while itās seconds away from exploding, and attackers will need to be cautious about camping the points. Another slight change to the movement is the addition of the fortification mechanic. Fortifications are barricades that players can freely build with the use of their trusty toolbox. There are many different types of fortifications ranging in size and strength, and they can be destroyed with enough damage done to them. I personally havenāt built any at the moment, so I cannot comment on them. I was worried these fortifications could potentially ruin the game, but as of right now they seem to add minor effects to combat but nothing outrageous.Ā
Ā Ā The weapons of Battlefield V feel GREAT!!! Pretty typical stuff youād see in a World War 2 game. You got your STG44 assault rifle, M1A1 Carbine, MP40 sub machine gun, Springfield sniper rifle and so on! I spend most of my time jumping from class to class and all the weapons Iāve tried feel amazing! I also like the customization options this time around. In Battlefield V, players can completely customize their guns cosmetically excluding sights and scopes, and weapons can also be upgraded to have passive perks. The cosmetic changes are mostly camos on different parts of the guns, with the exception being the sights and scopes. You will need to unlock these from using the weapons, but you eventually be able to get a wide-range of sights and scopes! Upgrades are passive abilities for weapons, such as quicker aim-down-sight time, as well as less sway when aiming-down-sights. These upgrades vary per weapon, and can even give some physical attachments, like a bipod or bayonet for snipers! As for the vehicles, again, more research is required. I generally donāt use the vehicles too much in Battlefield games, but I do want to give them a shot! I used to LOVE the tanks in Battlefield 3 and 4 so Iām sure I can fall back in love in Battlefield V.Ā There are 2 maps in the beta and they are both fun! I especially like the circular town map because of the close-quarters/long-range engagements. I canāt wait to get the full version of the game to really try all the toys they added to this Battlefield!Ā Ā Oh, and on the last note! I donāt know if itās supposed to be called Battlefield V or Battlefield 5? V or 5???... ehhhh! Iām wasting too much time trying to write a bit at the end here. Iām going back to playing Battlefield V! Later nerds š
The Messenger First Impressions: a Blast in the Past!
Ā So, I know retro 8-bit 2D platformer metroidvanias are the current trend for most indie games now-a-days, but let me explain how The Messenger does it differently and better! The Messenger at itās core is a 2D retro platformer with some metroidvania elements, but instead of it feeling like an indie game, it actually feels just like a NES game. The Messenger NAILS the presentation and feeling of old NES platform adventure games, and Iād argue it does it better than some of the originals. Not only does it feel like a NES game, but the cool gimmick with The Messenger is it completely changes the entire game into a 16-bit SNES looking game! AND IT PULLS THAT OFF TOO! LIKE EVERYTHING CHANGES! THE CHARACTERS, THE ENEMIES, THE STAGES, THE MUSIC! Where some indie platformers are trying to find their footing and be something unique, The Messenger is just fine with being a good retro game! In my opinion, The Messenger can even rival the perfection of Shovel Knight as being the ānewā retro style platformer to sweep consoles!
Ā Iāve sunk about 6 to 7 hours into The Messenger now and am enjoying all the game has to offer! It starts out a bit bland honestly. Itās presented well and controls great, but the first hour or so didnāt capture me. The main thin two components that kept me going were the gameplay and the story. You are an average ninja, training to protect the world from an inevitable takeover from HELL!!! Youāre hero seems uninterested, and a bit uninformed, but is of course the chosen hero, who must take the scroll to the top of the mountain and stop the hellish army from conquering the world. Again, the story isnāt the most interesting but itās the personality of each character that really brings it to life! I LOVE each interaction with the npcs, all of them have quite good writing and are pretty funny. Some people might say the jokes are trying ātoo hardā but Iād be lying if I said I didnāt chuckle at most lines and even laugh out loud at a few. Not to mention most of the designs are refreshing yet derivative. I mean that in the best ways possible, as most of the characters felt like they were designed in an 80ā²s era boardroom. That being said, this game isnāt one for references all over the place, I honestly havenāt noticed any so far, so if youāre someone against that than thatās a plus. The Messengerās world isnāt going for loud in your face style and humor, itās feels more like a calm natural love letter to fans of an older era of video games.Ā
Ā Ā Speaking of an older era, The Messengerās gameplay feels like itās coming straight off of a used video game cartridge rented from your local video store. This game is just sooooooo smooth and satisfying to control! Itās precise and accurate to the degree of platformers in the 8-bit era, and the combat feels great too! The messenger uses his katana to do various slashes, not a huge variety but his attacks are more simple and useful than complex and skillful. I like to think of the katana as a tool, even though itās has a limited moveset, use each move to your advantage skillfully. Plus, this is just how older games were, they were simple, fun mindless combat! As you continue through each level defeating a variety of simple, yet practical, enemies, you will gain points that you can use to upgrade your moveset. Now I know what youāre thinking,ā But Corey! I thought you said this game was simple and mindless?!?ā Yes I did, and believe me, these upgrades DO NOT change up the gameplay and are VERY SIMPLE.Ā Want a projectile attack, done, want to be able to absorb enemy projectiles with your katana, done. In addition to these, you will also gain new ninja tools by progressing that will help you through various obstacles in your path. For example, you will gain ninja claws that will allow you to cling-on and climb walls! And yes, you can use these ninja tools to find various secrets spread across every level. I do wanna bite my own tongue here a little and say that some of the movement of the messenger is inspired by other 8-bit games like Ninja Gaiden and TMNT. Although it is never referenced verbally soooo... I guess Iām still right!Ā
Ā Ā Last but not least, the bosses of the game are a blast to fight! The bosses in The Messenger are a great mix of fun and challenge. The honestly remind me a lot of Megaman bosses, some with different phases while others speed up as they get lower on health. The bosses all feel very natural to the style of The Messenger, making you implement the new ninja tool you just learned in the level to help defeat the boss. This game does a great job balancing itās own difficulty. I never once felt cheated on any section of the game, and thought that my failure was due to my own inability. I also think this game is very approachable. Although it is based on more unforgiving 8-bit retro platformers, I think if you give The Messenger are far shot and learn the game for a few levels, you will have no problem completing the game as you go on. I also wanna give a HUGE shout-out to the music in this game. The tracks are fire, ANNNNNND when you get to the point where the game becomes 16-bit, the music changes to that tone too!!! ITāS GREAT! I canāt wait to continue in The Messenger and ultimately see where the story goes! Another great indie title for my Nintendo Switch, honestly starting to get a bit cramped. Iām currently playing 3 indie titles on my Switch, with like 3 more on the back-burner. Not to mention that Winter 2018 video game season is staring me right in the eyes... *gulp*Ā
Into the Breach First Impressions: Squash those bugs!
Ā Ā I love me a good shadowdrop, and Into the Breach was probably the best one for me in a while! Iāve followed Into the Breach a decent amount upon itās initial launch on Steam, and Iāve always been interested in this one. Similar to Dead Cells, Iāve heard nothing but praise from critics on this one so I was keeping a close on a Switch launch. I was a bit hesitant though, as Subset Games are known to take A WHILE to port their games off of Steam. This again makes the shadowdrop THAT MUCH MORE SPECTACULAR!!! Into the Breach is a tactical game to itās core with rogue-lite elements incorporated in. Your goal is simple, protect the buildings and SQUASH THE BUGS!!! Iāve been getting MANY Starship Troopers vibes from this game and itās great! As the player, you control three unique mech-units that can move and attack each once per turn. After your turn is up, the bugs, or Vek as theyāre called, get to make their moves. As simple as Iām making it sound, I wanna truly dive deep into the rich strategy that can happen in each turn and on each continent!Ā
Ā The story of Into the Breach goes as following; sometime in the future, humanity has been wiped-out by a unending swarm of insects known as the Vek and itās up to you to travel back in time and stop this fro happening! Itās that awesome?!? Before you start you quest to SQUASH THE BUGS, you must pick your captain and your team. You will unlock different units and captains the more and more you play, but Iāll get into that more latter. You will then go from continent to continent, completing missions for the leaders of said continents to progress and safe humanity! Each continent is split intoĀ eight to ten sections, each acting as a mission and each having unique rewards! When you start a mission, you will select three spots to drop your three mechs, and this is actually a HUGE strategy point! As Iāve played more, Iāve learned where you want to drop the mechs and where you donāt wanna. Sometimes placing the mechs in bad spots can block off your other units and can lead to damage or mech deaths! Well, your mechs donāt really die, the pilots will, but theyāre important. In battle, if one of your mechs goes done, it just stays on the spot it die inactive, and your pilot dies. Your captain and pilots all level up and gain points to use for upgrades, so you donāt want your pilots to die! But you donāt want the buildings to take damage either, because if your buildings take too much damage, itās game over buddy!Ā
Ā Ā Like I mentioned about the drop points, strategy and tactics are the bread and butter of this game. I look at this game as a game of chess. You really need to play and play to learn just how all the units act and their strengths and weaknesses. For example, the punching mech is your most powerful mech from the start, but he has to get cloes and personal to be effective. You really need to plan where heās going to be placed in order to get a beneficial move. Basically, you always want a beneficial move! I try to always defend the buildings and the mechs, but the Vek are here to say otherwise. The Vek are like your units but they trade power for numbers, and in later levels, THEYāRE JUST OVERPOWERED! The Vek are pretty smart, besides stepping directly on mines, they will always leave you clutching your fists because you canāt figure out how to deal with them all. luckily, the Vek arenāt the smartest with their environments! Your surroundings are your strongest allies, you EVERYTHING to your advantage! Bash Vek into mountains or each other for additional damage, knock the Vek into the water for an instant kill, THROW THE VEK OFF THE EDGE FOR AN EPIC DEFEAT! Ohhh it feels great to kill these bugs! Just remember, all these elements can also be used against you! Mechs are pretty useless in the water.Ā
Ā I did say this game is a rogue-lite tactics game, so letās talk about some of those elements. Once you beat the boss of the continent, youāll be able to purchase upgrades for your units with stars youāve been earning for each mission. These upgrades include buffs for your mechs as well as new attacks! These attacks are chosen at random, so as you keep playing, you will get more and more attacks to chose from! I assume the order of the attacks that spawn in are random too! If you happen to die, you will be able to safe one of your pilots and have to restart the whole game over. Every time you play the missions, the number of Vek, the area the Vek sparn and the type of Vek are all random. And as you move onto each different continent, you will add more Vek to your spawn pool. But this isnāt all bad, because the further you go you also will unlock more pilots and mechs to use! During the missions themselves, you can also recover drop pods that will give you a random attack, upgrades or even a new pilot, so always try to get them! I feel like I have the same urge to keep playing as I do with Dead Cells! I just want to see everything the game has to offer, and to do that I need to play more and get good! This game is definitely not an easy game, you will have to think and think before you finally move your units. The game also graciously gives you an option to redo your mech movements and even redo your entire turn once! Into the Breach is a great game from what Iāve played so far and Iām very excited to see it through to the end! And I will of course keep SQUASHING THOSE BUGS!!!
Dead Cells First Impressions: OHHHH YAAAAAH!
Ā Ā I listen to a lot of video game podcasts during my job and workout, and many if not all have been giving upmost PRAISE to a new indie game called Dead Cells. I heard about Dead Cells ages ago when it initially released on Steam in early access. I knew it was going to be great but wanted to wait for the full experience, plus I saw it was coming to the Switch. I actually pre-purchased this game a few weeks before itās launch and didnāt get around to playing it until a few days ago. All I can say is IF I WASNāT WRITING THIS BLOG RIGHT NOW IāD BE PLAYING DEAD CELLS!!! OH MY GOD IS THIS GAME GREAT!!! Dead Cells in simple terms is a rogue-lite metroidvania 2D action game... I guess those arenāt that simple of words. Itās basically a 2D action game that changes every time you play it. Youāre always finding new weapons, enemies and secrets, as well as getting cells to unlock some permanent upgrades. Oh yah, didnāt I mention every time you die, you restart from the beginning? Thus is the nature of rogue-lites, but thatās why I love them! Dead Cells mixes challenge of a Souls game with exploration of a metroidvania, and Iām absolutely in love!Ā
Ā Ā As challenging of a game Dead Cells is, they still help new players out right from the get-go. The first run you have in Dead Cells is almost like a tutorial, showing you the basics of how to play and how the items work. Once you play some more runs though, itās all on you. Figure it out genius!!! Iāve played for about 3 hours and Iām still learning and perfecting the runs. I remember starting very slow, than going very fast and dying constantly, now I move pretty fast through the levels while barely getting touched. The combat is a good mix of easy and hard. Attacks all depend on the type of weapon youāre currently using. The game starts you out with a pretty quick short sword, but you can find even faster daggers or strong slow heavy weapons. Most attacks performed by enemies are very drawn out so that you have a window to dodge or parry. Whenever you start are run, you are given the choice of taking a bow or a shield. The bow acts as a projectile weapon, while the shield can be used to block and parry, as well as absorb some minor damage.This choice at the beginning really showcases the fundamentals of Dead Cells, play the game how you like! The more and more you play, the more items you unlock and the more combos you find! Discovery and exploration is a BIG role in good metroidvanias, and Dead Cells even does this right!
Ā Ā Dead Cells has two different types of exploration progression that works great and is fantastic. One is time sealed doors. As your progress into the hard levels of the game, you will find doors that look like hourglasses that are either blue or red. If theyāre red, they will be locked and a message will appear saying how much time you were short of unlocking the door and you will have to try again next time. But if theyāre blue, you sure did go fast and can pass through the door to obtain your prize of power-ups and gold! I also believe some of these timed doors can lead to new areas as well as unlock more lore in the game, but I canāt confirm this yet. The other type of progression is through platforming options closed off by runes. Runes are unlocked by beating specific mini-bosses, and are permanent unlocks that allow the player to access new areas through various means. The first rune you unlock allows you to to create a ladder out of a pile of cells, unlocking access to new areas! As you play the Dead Cells, you will find many different road blocks in platforming that you will realize will need a specific rune. This and the fact that each run is different adds vast replay-ability to the game overall! I was a huge fan of The Binding of Isaac and can tell Dead Cells is going to consume MANY of my hours! I hope to report back in a week or two for a full review of Dead Cells! Now if you excuse me, TIME FOR MORE DEAD CELLS!Ā
Madden Tournament Shooting in Florida
Ā Ā Iām very sad to report that yesterday during a Madden tournament in Jacksonville, Florida, a shooting took place injuring eleven and killing three. CNN reported that the shooting took place in GLHF Game Bar behind a pizzeria during the event itself. If youād like to look up the video, it is on the CNN website I linked, but be warned it is a bit graphic. Jacksonvilleās sheriff Mike Williams stated that the shooter, David Katz, was a 24-year old white male, and right now the motives have yet to be determined. One of the injured, Alexander Madunic, said that David lost one of his matches earlier and he seemed upset. It hurts my heart to see something like this happened. It almost feels like nothing is safe anymore! I go to many gaming conventions and my friend is constantly going to esports tournaments so this really frightens me! David Katz is the biggest sore loser Iāve ever seen, and I am very sorry to all those harmed in this event. Please never harm anyone over a video game, or anything you lose at. It is just a game, you can always play and win again.
Ā Ā Anytime there is a mass shooting in the United States, itās always a difficult situation. Just bringing up the incident is something I think is inherently bad because thatās what the shooter wanted in the end. For this circumstance, I donāt believe thatās the case though. I will contradict myself too and say it is necessary to talk about these incidents so we can learn what actually caused this event. I think what had happened here is David had a BIG EGO! It was stated in the CNN article that David said he was āone of the better players.ā When he lost his match, it was like a spark to his fuse. David was upset he lost, he might have even got mocked by his fellow players. These events might have lead him to initiated the shooting. Maybe David also had a mental issue. I donāt follow Madden esports and am not sure how David has been doing in the past few years, but this could surely be the case. Iām sure officers will study Davidās past life better to accurately find the cause of his ultimate action. I hope to not have offended anyone, this event was terrible and it is important to respect those who were killed in it.
Ā Ā Something that Iām not looking forward to is whatās to come from the mass media about this incident. I feel like whenever a mass shooting occurs, many news outlets will blame video games as being the main cause of the shooting. Whenever these shooting happen, there are many factors to look at about said shooter. Yes, they usually shoot themselves before they can talk, but we can look at their previous lives and learn clues as to why they chose this path. BUT IF THE MEDIA FINDS A VIDEO GAME CONSOLE IN THEIR HOUSE... VIDEO GAMES CREATE MURDERS!!! I hate how the media DOESNāT acknowledge ANY OTHER violent media form besides video games. There are a plethora of violent movies, TV series and books, as well as plenty of non-violent video games. Just because an individual plays or watches a violent piece of media doesnāt mean that they are going to go out on the streets and murder. Mental health and gun control are two BIG factors that can cause some of these events. The media has been doing this for quiet sometime now, and I think it really needs to change if we are ever going to make significant change. Hopefully, we can all learn from this event and many others that have happened in the past and protect more in the future. Again, I want to express my condolences to all those hurt in the incident, and rest in peace Elijah Clayton and Taylor Robertson. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your familiesĀ

Super Mario Party goes back to itās roots!
Ā Ā Ever since Mario Party 9 on the Wii, Mario Party has taken a turn for the worst. It became too simplistic, which is saying a lot for a Mario Party game. I also feel like they made the game a bit to casual and easy. Nintendo seemed to try and balance the game to be overall more fair for everyone. In concept, sure that might be a good idea, BUT NOT FOR MARIO PARTY! Mario Party is all about the shenanigans of stealing stars and coins from your friends on the couch. Itās about setting up traps thatāll make them unable to get the star. Itās about everyone turning on a single player because he or she is winning and being a dick about it! If everyone is doing just about the same, itās just a boring time and I think Nintendo finally gets that. Mario Party is all about the randomness and with Super Mario Party, I think Nintendo is going back to itās roots!
Ā Ā Super Mario Party ditches the whole āeveryone moves at onceā system to the original method of everyone moving themselves. This just feels essential to the Mario Party series and adds more strategy in gameplay. I know there is a form of candies returning and that may mean that traps are returning as well! The candies just add a nice range of variety with board control with the multi-move dice and the potential of trap-dice. Something new to Super Mario Party isĀ ācharacter dice,ā which are special dice per character with unique numbers on them. As you can see on the picture above, Marioās dice has one 1, three 3ā²s, one 5 and a 6, kind of a balanced dice. Another example is Warioās and Bowserās dice, which have higher number of spaces to move with the negative being the potential of losing 2 to 3 coins and not moving at all! This alone adds lairs to the gameplay as well because it makes each character pick important! Hopefully this doesnāt mean there will be one all powerful character though, but usually Nintendo is good with balancing. The boards also seem to all be unique and have their own gimmicks for variety too!
Ā Ā The main meat of Mario Party has always been itās mini-games and they look like theyāre going to be great! From what little Nintendo has shown us, the minigames are look to be primarily played with the joycons. I have mixed feeling on this. I donāt have much experience using the joycons themselves as mini Wiimotes, but I think it could be done well. There were some minigames that had you using the controller sideways like an NES controller as well as games that rely on the HD rumble feature of the controller. I just donāt want too many games consisting of motion controls, I feel like the joycons might not be as accurate. I do love the fact that you can play with just the joycons and not a full controller. This just facilitates the original concept of the Switch even further, allowing two player to play Super Mario Party wherever whenever. Nintendo has much more to show of this game, and itās just around the corner launching on October 5th! Iām excited to play this one, hopefully it will be a proper better Mario Party than the past few. It will be interested to see if they will add any dlc content to the game too? I want every Mario game from this point to have content from Odyssey. MAKE IT HAPPEN NINTENDO!Ā
My Top 5 Most Anticipated Games of 2018
Ā Ā As we grow closer to the end of the year, and when itās a slow gaming news day, itās important to look forward to all the good games about to hit this winter season! The winter season for video games always has some of the real heavy hitters that really make your wallet cry. I feel like this season comes and goes so quick because of all the greatness thatās hitting us! And... you know... the holidays... Today I wanted to talk about the top five games that I am MOST excited to play this winter season! I can assuredly say that there is WAAAAAAY more games on my radar, but I really wanted to just showcase the five that Iām REALLY passionate about. These are the games Iām constantly thinking about during my free time. Wondering how each will play and feel and what theyāll do to change the previous formulas. Without further ado folks, letās get right into it with my number 5!!!
#5: Life is Strange 2
Ā Ā Life is Strange was a game I only really got invested into about a year ago. It is my girlfriendās favorite game, so she INSISTED that I play it myself to understand why she likes it so much! Iām not usually a huge fan of the point-and-click story games like these, with exceptions being some Telltale stuff, but I simply adored Life is Strange. The story, the characters, the atmosphere, everything was done perfectly! With that being said, Life is Strange 2 really has me interested! The last trailer really grabbed my attention, wanting to know more about these two brothers and the power the one has. Not to mention being right back in the world of Life is Strange is something I need in my life! Itās so different and a good change of pace from other more intense games I generally play. Plus as I said earlier, Dontnod create AMAZING stories and characters, I want to see it all!!! Now letās move on to number 4!!!
#4: Battlefield V
Ā Ā Iāve always loved the Battlefield series ever since Bad Company 2. The combat just always felt better to me than other shooters. The guns and vehicles sounding and acting realistic, the destructible environment and the BEAUTIFUL GRAPHICS are just some of my favorite features. Battlefield V looks to be another great hit to the series! Going back to World War 2 was a smart call! World War 2 games have become more popular since theyāve had such an absence recently. And World War 2 has multiple great weapons and vehicles that changed the battlefield forever! (PUNS!!!) I like the changes Dice has made to the game, such as balancing the classes more and the new player control options. Iām very hesitant on the new ability to build cover, plus I mostly play Battlefield for the multiplayer which is why itās lower on my list. None the less, I know Iām gonna sink hundreds of hours into this one! Next up, number 3!!!
#3: Red Dead Redemption 2
Ā Ā Iām gonna be honest. I never played Red Dead Redemption nor was I excited for this game until a few weeks ago. Once Rockstar released itās latest trailer showcasing gameplay and the world for Red Dead Redemption 2, I WAS SOLD!!! Red Dead Redemption 2 reminded me SOOOOOO MUCH of a western Breath of the Wild. It seems so open and vast, as someone who likes adventure/exploration games I canāt resist! The beautiful open vistas and the living towns and wilds left me breathless. Sorta like how I was at the beginning of Breath of the Wild. I also like the whole western concept. There really isnāt any western games in the market, so Iām quite interested in this world. Ever since I became a McCree main in Overwatch, Iāve realized that cowboys are FREAKING AWESOME! I love the concept that I am the law in the west. I get to choose who lives and who dies. Rockstar has definitely put a lot of love into Red Dead 2 and thatās one of the many reasons they got my money and my HYPE!!! Letās get into number 2!!!
#2: Fallout 76
Ā Ā Fallout is my favorite Bethesda series. I canāt say no to a new Fallout game. Although, I donāt think this Fallout game might be for me. I honestly donāt like the whole multiplayer concept. And I donāt wanna come out a bash this game like I know many others have. I LOVE Fallout! I know this game has potential to be another great game in the series. I know this game is gonna have plenty of lore in it. I do like how it is a prequel and am very interested to see all the new creatures and environments. Again, going back to just loving adventure/exploration games is a back factor as to why Iām excited for this. I just love the world of Fallout and even if I donāt like the concept of this one, I wanna support it. I wanna play the crap outta this one, discovering everything the team put on the map, every nook and cranny. And I DO wanna try playing this with a group of my friends! Social gaming is becoming a big thing lately, and I think it could be relaxing playing so Fallout with the buds rather than a PUBG or Overwatch. And I know if Iām not into the multiplayer aspect, I eventually can make a private server for me. JUST ME!!! And now, for the moment you all have been waiting for, NUMBER 1!!!
#1: Super Smash Bros Ultimate
Ā Ā Hello, Iām a Nintendo fanboy. Smash is my perfect game. Super Smash Bros Ultimate is the perfect Smash... If my math is correct, this is my perfectly ultimate game! Where do I even begin with this one? Smash Bros is my favorite Nintendo game, and I love the hype/rumor period before a new one is about to come out! The community talking about leaks, saying how they could be plausible or fake, itās great stuff! Masahiro Sakurai and the rest of his team are literally poring their heart and souls into this game. They didnāt need to add Ridely. THEY DID! They didnāt need to add Snake back. THEY DID! They didnāt need to add King K. Rool. THEY FUCKING DID!!! This feels like the first Smash game were Sakurai is just listening to us. Heās giving us everything we want and we donāt deserve this! I canāt tell you the amount of gameplay Iāve watched for this game already., nor could I begin to tell you how much I think about this game. When this game drops, thatās it. Iām done with everything for a good two to three weeks! AND WE DONāT EVEN KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT IT YET!!! Thereās still plenty more characters and features to come for the game, and I say,ā Take your time Nintendo!ā I can wait... NO I CANāT WAIT UUUUHHHHHHHHH!!! GIVE IT TO ME NOW! IāLL SELL A KIDNEY!!!
Ā Ā And there you have it ladies and gentlemen! Like I said at the beginning, these were only a few of the games I am looking forward too! As games come out month to month, Iāll be sure to update yāall on what Iām playing as well as review some of them! If youād like, tell me what game or games youāre looking forward to in the near future. As much as 2018 has some hits, early 2019 has some GREAT games coming too, like Resident Evil 2 Remake and Kingdom Hearts 3!!! But letās not jump to far ahead, cause remember we got all these great games to play this winter season!!!... winter season... holidays... Thanksgiving... Christmas... maybe I wonāt be able to buy all these games with the holidays?!? Or maybe everyone can just get coal for Christmas š
With the announcement of another Nintendo Indie Direct, thereās only 1 game I wanna know about...
