I asked for questions and you guys delivered! So this weeks More Thoughts is your questions and my answers. Lets get to it! The first question comes from @JPSwitchmania on twitter: “I have a question! Do you think there will be more Smash reveals and if so, who are you hoping to see?” Answer: I do think there will be more Smash reveals. As for who I want to see, I’m still hoping against hope for Crash Bandicoot. I don’t…

On Friday last week, Nintendo of Canada invited myself and other local media to an after hours preview of Super Smash Bros Ultimate at FanExpo 2018. For three hours, media were able to play against each other in 4 player games, lasting 2 minutes and 30 seconds each. With so many stations, I was able to log almost three straight hours of Super Smash Bros, and my early impressions are really great!

Insomniac has created some really great experiences in the past, and when word spread that they would be the developer behind a new Spider-Man game exclusive to the PS4, fans were pretty excited about the prospects. Developers of the fantastic - although perhaps under appreciated Sunset Overdrive - took a lot of what made that game fantastic, and brought it over to the Marvel version of New York city. Does the same magic exist yet again, this time in exclusivity for another console? Let's dive in!

Thunderful Games, a new company which is the combined effort of Image and Form and Zoink Games, has announced some games today. They released a sizzle reel showing off three games. Check it out below! Image & Form and Zoink! Games are great developers. I think its amazing that the two of them are working together. The most interesting of the three games shown in the sizzle reel is Anthill for Nintendo Switch. It looks like a game anyone who…

The Portal Knights team has been very active on social media ever since the game originally launched, and now that things are up and running on every platform imaginable - Steam, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android - the team is busy pumping out content updates to support the ever growing fan base. Although these updates are not coming as fast as fans would like - and I'm sure the Portal Knights development team would like to see certification faster as well - when they do launch, it is with much fanfare and anticipation!

Marvel’s Spider-man comes to the Playstation 4 early next month and with it comes a brand new Spider-man universe. Check out the IGN video below! It goes in-depth into the changes that developer Insomniac Games made to the wall-crawler’s life. I also have some thoughts on the upcoming game too. Marvel’s Spider-man for the Playstation 4 looks like a really cool game. Not only are the graphics amazing, but the game’s universe looks like it’ll be fun to explore. Some…

Rebllion is know for creating some over the top gaming mechanics - trust us, there is nothing more satisfying then a headshot in the Sniper Elite series - but has often opted to create serious missions with unique gameplay elements. Enter Strange Brigade, with lots of over the top mechanics; however, the realism of World Wars has been replaced with the craziness of treasure hunting, complete with undead, scarabs, and much more. Can Rebellion swap out serious story telling for an over the top, unbelievable adventure? Let's take a look!

Nintendo of America had a indie showcase video today. We have the video below and my thoughts on it. I thought todays Nindies Showcase video was ok. Overall, I wasn’t too impressed with most of the games. The two games that stuck out to me were Into the Breach (out today!) and Treasure Stack. I love tactical rpgs and puzzle games. I’m also interested in Hyper Light Drifter and Undertale. I’m not sure about many of the other games. Still,…

In the newest Lego DC Super Villains trailer, Darkseid and his home Apokolips, two Jack Kirby creations, show up to wreck (improve?) everyone’s day! Check out the trailer and then some thoughts from me. Its hard for me to explain how excited I am for Lego DC Super Villains. Even more so, I’m excited for the appearance of Darkseid and Apokolips in the game. Jack Kirby is one of the greatest comic book creators ever. Jack and Stan Lee created…

Gamescom 2018 is in full swing, and Ubisoft kept up with everyone else yesterday and launched two new trailers for Assassin's Creed Odyssey, which is due out later this year on October 5th.
