Xbox One X Coverage – Farming Simulator 2017 Platinum Edition
Farming Simulator 2017 is a very niche title, and although the majority of people likely won't enjoy what the game has to offer, it is easily one of my favorite franchises on console, and I eagerly await the new released, which lately seem to be about bi-yearly. Just last week, Giants Software released Farming Simulator 2017 Platinum Edition, and although this version can be purchased in the stores, all previous owners of Farming Simulator 2017 Season Pass were able to get the upgrade at no additional charge. While the 4K improvements are what I showed up for, I was surprised to see an all new map, new tractors, and so much more.

Review in Progress – Samsung Series 7 55inch Q7 UHD QLED TV
For the majority of people, a television set is, well, a televisions set, and while you might notice the size difference between an LCD and an LED, or perhaps the brightest differences between a plasma and a non-plasma TV, the reality is the majority of people won't know whether they are watching on a great TV versus a phenomenal TV. Prior to receiving the Samsung Series 7 55inch Q7 UHD QLED TV from Samsung Canada, I was using your average Sharp, LED HD TV. I was happy with it, but when my Xbox One X arrived from Xbox Canada, I knew that the Sharp I had been using for the past 3 years wasn't going to cut it.

Worms W.M.D Out Today on Nintendo Switch
There is more in the air than just thanksgiving, at least for Worms fans. Worms W.M.D launches today on the Nintendo Switch for 29.99. We reviewed W.M.D last year on the Xbox One and where not entirely thrilled with the title at the 29.99 price point. That being said, having the ability to take Worms on the go is definitely an added bonus over the other console versions of the game, making the 29.99 price point much more digestible. We will be reviewing Worms W.M.D on Nintendo Switch, and that should be ready next week. Until then, take a look at this press release from Team 17!
