More Thoughts From Me #224: I finally play Phantasy Star

Turmoil Impressions (Nintendo Switch)
Turmoil, an oil baron simulator, has been out on PC for several years now, but it just made the leap to the Switch.

In Turmoil, you compete with three other AI characters to extract oil from various plots of land, earning money to be spent at an auction on shares that will determine the next mayor of the town. The game consists of two phases,…

Sony and Microsoft Taking Different Approaches on Next Gen
Twitter could possibly be the most toxic place on the internet for most things, and video games are not immune to that either. The number of fanboys who attempt to validate their video games console preferences grows daily, and it's further proof of how pathetic people can be. Xbox fans bash Sony fans because we haven't received a ton of PS5 details. PS4 fans bash Xbox fans for, well...almost anything and everything. But the different approaches to next gen for both companies make a ton of sense, and when you assess them rationally, stupid comments about why one is and one isn't going all in with details should be put aside, because it's all pretty simple.

Once Upon A Bug: A Look At Bug Fables for Nintendo Switch
Bug Fables looks like Paper Mario. That can’t be denied. But is it just a Paper Mario copycat or is there something more to it? Let’s take a look at Bug Fables for Nintendo Switch eshop! Bug Fables caught me by surprise. This game wasn’t even on my radar. It was only a couple of days ago that I sort of heard of it but thought “Bugs? eh.” I had no idea what it was or anything.
