Couples Who Geek Together, Stay Together!
Something I learned early in life was that for a relationship to work, you both must accept the other for who they are, rather than trying to change them into someone you wish they were. A major part of that is embracing (or ideally sharing) each other's passions and hobbies. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, there has never been a better time to embrace your significant other's hobbies!
PowerA Nintendo Switch Lite Carrying Case
With the launch of the Nintendo Switch Lite, I was shocked by the lack of dedicated Nintendo Switch Lite merchandise available, especially when it came to protecting your Switch. I was shocked by the number of companies that just re-branded their regular Switch carrying cases with a "Nintendo Switch Lite" logo. While those cases definitely work, I wanted something that was specific to my Nitnendo Switch Lite - thankfully, PowerA delivered with the Protection Case Kit.

Battlefield: Listen To The Past
There are a ton of video games out there that are some sort of a military shooter. You’ve got games like Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Battlefield, Arma, Insurgency, Sniper Elite, the list goes on. A ton of these games, if not most, still follow with what made them great in the first place. Some games continue on, some die off. There seems to be a franchise in general though that is always in flux, and that’s Battlefield. There is a massive and long-time fanbase for the series, and there is a good reason for that. Unfortunately, most of that fan base does not play the game anymore. Battlefield really has ridden a roller coaster throughout its years. Hopefully, soon it will be back on track to what it should be.

Halo Infinite: Pre-Release Preview
What to expect from Halo Infinite? Halo Infinite will become the sixth Halo game in the main series and this time you can expect the game to focus entirely on the Master Chief. Halo 5: Guardians spilt players’ time between Master Chief and another Spartan – Spartan Locke. With reports that, upon seeing the MasterChief again at an E3 conference last summer, some Halo players broke down in tears of happiness, it is fair to say that there is lots…

Why is there so much DLC – The Sims 4
My wife and I recently got our first personal computer in a long, long time. And in reality, we didn't get a PC, but opted instead for an iMac. As a gamer, I knew the gaming options on iMac were getting better, but were still sparse. So I turned to a game that I eventually found for under $10...The Sims 4.
