Story of Seasons has been out for a LONG while now, and XSeed Games and Marvelous have all but moved on from this title. Shortly, a Story of Seasons spinoff will launch - which we hope to cover - but this isn't why I am writing. I'm writing today because Story of Seasons is fantastic, and you should get it!
LEGO Marvel Avengers Hits Retail
LEGO Marvel Avengers hit retail yesterday, both in physical and digital form. Our review code from Warner Bros. only arrive yesterday afternoon, so we will need more time before our review will be complete. Our early impressions, however, are outstanding. LEGO, Travelers Tales, and Warner Bros. seem to raise the bar with each subsequent LEGO release, and nothing has changed with the release of LEGO Marvel Avengers.

Dying Light: The Bozak Horde DLC Review
If you have not yet read our review of Dying Light, you can do so here. We thought it was pretty good. Thankfully, the PR company in charge of Dying Light sent over a few DLC packs as well, and we have played through the first one, The Bozak Horde. Below are our thoughts on this DLC pack, and the extra value it brings to an already outstanding game.
Opinionated Logan: Mario and Luigi – Paper Jam
My six year old son Logan loves video games, and is falling into step with his dad nicely in that regard. He likes Mario, he likes Animal Crossing, and he loves the odd family friendly game on my Xbox One. Last night, I found him curled up in his bed - after hours mind you - playing Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam. Despite my frustrations with him A) sneaking my 3DS into his bed, and B) still being awake at 10:30 at night, I couldn't help but ask him what he thought.

Nintendo RPGS getting Bundles
Although Microsoft is a very (very!) close second, Nintendo is King of creating specific bundles for games coming out on their systems. Whether the bundles are just packed with games, or if the systems actually have unique designs, Nintendo is always trying to create better quality bundles for a good price. Oh ya, and they want the hardcore fans to shell out lots of money and collect all of their favorites.
Interview with Image and Form CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson
Small studios are often more open to communicating directly with smaller websites and media outlets, and this is very true of all the staff members at Image and Form. Not every companies CEO would take time to answer questions, but the mind behind the SteamWorld franchise (SteamWorld Dig, SteamWorld Heist), Brjann Sigurgeirsson, did just that for us. Image and Form almost went "off the grid" after the launch of SteamWorld Heist on the 3DS, not because they didn't care, but because they are so very busy. So we had some time to ask Brjann a few questions and he happily obliged. Our full interview is below.
