The moment I saw Hollow Knight at E3, I knew I wanted the game. I couldn’t get it then, but finally was able to pick up a copy of it yesterday. Here are my first impressions of Hollow Knight for Nintendo Switch. Hollow Knight is weird. The game starts with you, a bug, entering a creepy and mysterious underground city. There is barely any bugs living in the town. You talk to the one bug thats there and he really…

Sometimes, reviewers have it hard. We have to review some pretty awful games occasionally. We do this so you don’t have to play them. And then there are other times when we play a game that we know is good, but, personally, we don’t really care for it. I think I hit upon one of the latter games lately. I have been playing The Lost Child by NIS America for review. I know the game is good, but its not…

Our good friend Abdallah has been posting a number of videos to YouTube in his playlist for Mario Tennis Aces, and one of the more unique videos up right now is how to unlock a special costume for Mario in Mario Tennis Aces. We have the video below, so be sure to check it out!

The puzzle platformer genre never gets old in my opinion. It seems like some developer is always coming up with a unique and interesting new game for the genre. Pode is the newest puzzle platformer for the Nintendo Switch. The game is out today for the eshop. I got a review code of the game and have been playing it. My review isn’t ready yet, but I thought I’d give you a look into the world of Pode. Is this…

If you've never been to an Escape Room before, I strongly suggest getting a group of friends together and giving it a try. It is a fantastic experience for going out with friends, as well as a great teambuilding exercise for companies. For those who have tried an Escape Room, or just cannot find the time to get out to one, Unlock! Escape Adventures offers a very similar experience, but in the comfort of your own home. With multiple different adventures to choose from with a varying degree of difficulty, there is something for everyone! Let's dive in.

NHL 19 was officially unveiled during the NHL Awards last night, and fans went nuts for what is coming. Pond hockey, and lots of it apparently. Ready to take to the ice in September? Here is the launch trailer courtesy of EA Sports.

When Nintendo unveiled Super Smash Bros Ultimate at E3 2018, my first reaction was, "Is this it for Smash Bros?" In a game that promises to feature all the fighters from past titles, as well as stages from past titles, should we expect this release to be the swan song for the franchise. While I feel that Super Smash Bros will continue as Nintendo launches more systems, there is plenty of evidence to say that isn't going to happen.

Last week during E3, Nintendo and Square Enix released a new demo for Octopath Traveler. We had seen a demo before for the game, but this new one had some improvements and also let you play as any of the eight characters in the full game. I've been playing this demo a lot. Here are my thoughts on Octopath Traveler's newest demo!

Jurassic World has just launched in theatres, and the game based on the franchise has just launched on console. Jurassic World Evolutions is the Rollercoaster Tycoon of dinosaur games, allowing players to build structures, create dinosaurs, and establish a park that will make them a tidy profit. While these types of games always work great on PC, the transfer over to the Xbox One or PS4 is never as smooth.

Nintendo at E3 2018 was a blast! We went back to visit my colleagues as the Nintendo Booth of E3 again this year. We had a lovely exchange and then Julie took me up to play the upcoming Nintendo Switch titles. Thank again to Nintendo of Canada for setting us up with this fantastic opportunity, as well as Julie for the fantastic tour once again!
