I've spent a considerable amount of time building and maintaining a thriving base on the first world in Portal Knights. With the help of family - 2 brothers and a German exchange student to be precise - we have built houses, workshops, farms, and more to house our growing hoards, and to act as a base for all our operations. I've found one thing to be very true about these experiences: it is so relaxing. I never thought this type of game would cause me to relax and unwind, but this definitely has.

Xbox Game Pass Impressions
If you haven't heard yet, Microsoft announced Xbox Game Pass a few weeks ago, exclusively for Xbox Live Gold Members. For a very reasonable price - about the cost of a Netflix subscription - Xbox Gold owners can download and play 100 Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles on their Xbox One units.

Read MoreInjustice 2 Review
Injustice 2 isn't really your typical fighting game, and although it has all the makings of a solid fighting game - which it is - it is still not 'typical.' What is typical? Typical isn't a bad thing, but it's an industry constant that does get dated pretty quickly.

I would say something (or I’d say something to somebody else), somebody would disagree with me, and we’d go back and forth until we both got fed up and unfollowed and/or blocked each other. The problem with fights on the internet, especially places like Twitter, is that nobody wins. EVER. If somebody has their mind made up, you are not likely to change it. So why do we feel the…

Read MorePortal Knights Impressions – Xbox One
Portal Knights is a wonderful cross between Minecraft crafting and a somewhat deep RPG game. With a number of classes to choose from, tons of ways to upgrade your characters stats and abilities, and the chance to create wonderful buildings and worlds, Portal Knights is more than just a Minecraft clone: it is a more in depth, and personally a much more fun experience – yes, I said it! Don’t get me wrong, Minecraft is a ton of fun, but…
