This is one of those videos you just watch in awe because you know there is no way in the world you could ever do anything like this. It would be awesome we could but lets not go quitting our day jobs just yet.

Forza Horizon 3 demo

The demo is finally out and I was able to sit down and play it for about 30min. I know that doesn’t seem like a long time but for what I played it was enough to make me wanna keep playing it longer. Some might think the game is over hyped and that could be true but I think it feels a void necessary in the racing genre. You have regular Forza which is about pretty cars and precise driving. It can be very technical and daunting to so those races. Enter Forza Horizon, taking the best part of Forza….the cars and giving you a vast amount of races in various terrains that make for zany races. The part I enjoyed most in the demo was driving around admiring the local of Australia, listening to some sweet tunes and driving as fast and dangerous through the most insane track routes. I races a Jeep being carried by a helicopter thru the craziest route but it was so much fun. Forza Horizon 2 was awesome and Horizon 3 looks to top that. Oh and first thing you will notice different from Horizon 2 is that you can now choose your character model that appears in the car and give yourself a name that you think suits you. If you haven’t checked out the demo do yourself a favor and play it. If you like it and don’t own Forza Horizon 2 then I say go buy that until Horizon 3 is in your budget. LoL

Titanfall 2 is awesome. Grappling hook adds a whole new gameplay element when it comes to jumping on Titans or getting to your own Titan

This is one of those games where I know it won’t disappoint but the only reason i’m debating about PreOrdering is so that I can get Banjo-Kazooie.

YouTube Previews Before Video

Hope you didn’t think I was talking about the advertisements that are on youtube....that’s another post. I wanted to give Youtube/Google an applause because now when you hover over a video it will show you a quick couple of scenes from the video. Why is this good you ask? Because it saves you from looking a videos that are no where near what you were actually looking for. I go in search for particular videos on youtube (for joke purposes) and the ability to make sure I have the right video before I click it is crucial for comedic timing and just overall not wasting my time.
