I miss the Burnout franchise. I’m not very good at racing games so I’m always running off the road and hitting other cars. So the Burnout franchise was perfect for me. I loved how you can hit the cars and damage them. Unfortunately none of the Burnout games are on the Switch. However Asphalt 9: Legends is on the Switch and its a lot like Burnout.

With one release in the franchise out of the way, Playtonic has flexed their creative muscles on a brand new, and extremely different type of game in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. Corporate…

Stranded Sails: Explorers of the Cursed Islands is out today for the Nintendo Switch! Check out the launch trailer for the game below and come back for some thoughts on the game. Stranded Sails reminds me of Rune Factory and Harvest Moon, with a dash of Yonder and Zelda. The pirate theme for the game looks pretty cool. The crafting and building mechanics look neat and the combat looks interesting. My favorite thing about the trailer though? The fishing! I’m…

I was going to write about The Last of Us Remastered for this column, but then I bought a game called Horizon Zero Dawn and became hopelessly addicted to it.

Horizon Zero Dawn is an amazing game. I haven’t even completed the game yet and its already in my top…
