Michonne, Telltale, and the Walking Dead
If you have never had the pleasure of playing a Walking Dead game, and you have some interest in the television series, than you really need to get your hands on everything Telltale has published. While they are known for producing story centered games, the truth is that the Walking Dead series - Season 1, Season 2, and this latest miniseries looking at Michonne - are the best of their work. We recently got a code for the 1st episode of The Walking Dead: Michonne, and we really liked it!

The Joys of LEGO and Video Games
Last week, Warner Bros. PR in Toronto reached out and let me know they had a number of Ninjago, LEGO Dimensions fun packs and character packs to send my way. They arrived yesterday, and my six year old son Logan lost his mind. Not only is Logan a big Ninjago fan, but he is also a big LEGO Dimensions fan. His excitement made me realize something: all of these toys-to-life games do a great job of mixing toys and video games, but none of them - Skylanders or Disney Infinity - can do it like LEGO.

Wondershot a great Social Title on Xbox One
Social games have been coming to consoles more frequently on the last few months, and Wondershot from French developer Leikir Studio continues that trend. The game walks the fine line between being great for kids and borderline enjoyable for adults. My time with the game and its few characters and modes was pretty short, but it has been the go-to for my son over the last few days. Overall, Wondershot is an adequate release on Xbox One and Steam, and one that you should at least get your moneys worth on.

LEGO Games can Draw Families Together
If you don't own a Nintendo system - and the if you don't and have a family, you should! - there are not a lot of titles that appeal to families.

Would it be hard for Travelers Tales to dump local multiplayer in favour of online multiplayer? Of course, but they haven't, and that means a lot to my family.
