YouTubers Life 2 a Relaxing Experience – Nothing Like Real Life and That’s Great!

YouTubers Life 2 is now available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch, and while the game is far from accurate when it comes to showing what life as a YouTuber is like, the relaxing experience is making it one of my favourite games I've played on my Nintendo Switch in a long while. As someone who isn't into the Metroid craze, having access to this game right now is a god-send!

Familiar but Feels Good – NHL 22 Review

The regular season in the NHL has started and that means only two things - the Leafs will start off well before falling off a cliff, and a brand new EA Sports title is hitting shelves and digital marketplaces. We've been playing NHL 22 for about 6 days, and while things feel very familiar yet again, there is enough changed here to keep the familiar game play and feel, somewhat fresh!

I love the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. If it wasn’t for the epic Avengers two-parter (Infinity/Endgame), they would be my favorite Marvel movies. I love the humor, action, adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, and the music. Oh my god I love the music. And soon…there’s going to be a video game! Guardians of the Galaxy will soon be a video game.

Far Cry 6 Features – OCD Players Beware

Far Cry 6 has been one of my favourite games this year - I've enjoyed the story, how it unfolds, and the cool people you meet along the way.

Far Cry 6 Features – Using a Smart Phone in Far Cry 6

Is 2021, and Far Cry 6 is helping us do what we already do in real life all the time - play on our phones, a lot. In previous Far Cry games, we often would use a set of binoculars to scout out enemy bases, tagging enemies, and more. That made a ton of sense, and was enjoyable enough of an experience.

Far Cry 6 Review

Far Cry 6 is finally upon us, after some delays and a huge marketing campaign that you basically can't escape, it is time to step into the land of Yara and go toe to toe with Anton Castillo (Giancarlo Esposito). As a fan of the Far Cry series for quite some time, I was eager to dive into a full game again after Far Cry 5. New Hope was ok at best but wasn't the full experience I was craving or looking for. Far Cry 6, however, is BIGGER, BOLDER, and BADDER than it has ever been.
