The best part about reviewing a game later than other outlets is too see what the chatter is around a specific title, and being able to feed off of that. In general, the majority of outlets are on the same page when it comes to titles, the things they do well, and the things they do poorly. After spending a significant amount of time with the title on Xbox One X, I jumped online to see what the reaction was within the media circle. I was shocked. I was seeing scores of 5 and 6 out of 10, and was flabbergasted on how that was possible. So, I returned to Super ...

Super Mario 64 reinvented a genre by creating a very open world 3D platformer. Gamers had never seen a platformer so big and fully explorable. Nintendo had created something new and interesting with the Mario franchise. Flash-forward to the Nintendo Switch and all the new 3D platformers want to be like Mario 64. Take, for instance, Poi Explorer Edition, which just came out for the Switch. There is a lot of Mario 64 in Poi’s DNA. But does Poi do…

Super Mario Odyssey is out now and if you have Switch and you are not playing it, what the heck is wrong with you?! Seriously! You are missing out on the best Nintendo Switch game and the best Mario game yet!

On a recent trip to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World - courtesy of Disney Canada PR - my son and I traveled from area-to-area with one immediate purpose: to rid the Magic Kingdom of evil by playing the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom game.

Let's dive in and look at this fantastic, free experience.

Assassin's Creed Origins is a fantastic experience from start to finish, and very few things made my cringe in my current 40 hour play through. Full disclosure: I haven't done everything you can do in this game yet, but am planning to do so. What I have done though, is experience all the new mechanics Ubisoft has included in the title, as well as completed what I consider a pretty good story, at least when compared to other Assassin's Creed titles! How does it rank against all the other big games this year? Read our thoughts below!

The Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Direct will start at 6 a.m. PT, which is 9 am eastern/8 am central.

Welcome to the Morphite universe. You’ll explore it,…
