wouldn't say I'm a huge Xenoblade fan, but I was thrust into the franchise when the first title released on the Wii U when our office was sent a copy for review from Nintendo of Canada. This time around, copies of the game were limited - something we completely understand - so it is on us to purchase the game. As I always do when I want to know whether I put money down on a Nintendo title, I head over to our good friend Abdallah's YouTube page - click the banner below to check it out yourself - and see if he has any videos up. Thankfully, he does, a 30 ...

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Looks Incredibly Promising on Nintendo Switch
Why FIFA 18 is the Best Version Yet
With the release of each new edition of FIFA comes a year's’ worth of feedback and suggestions from diehard fans. The great thing about FIFA 18 is that those suggestions have been listened to and implemented. FIFA 18 is a drastic improvement on FIFA 17 and those who have clocked a significant amount of playing time already will agree. Of course, improvements can always be made, but here’s why FIFA 18 is the best version yet.

Yooka-Layee will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on December 14th! The game will be available for pre-load on December 7th though. According to Playtonic Games (the…
Read MoreXenoblade Chronicles 2 – Story Trailer
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 comes out this Friday! Are you excited for it? I know I am! Here is a new story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles to-help?-you with the wait. The story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 doesn’t really give away much of the story. We just get glimpses at some very exciting and dramatic moments. I like that Nintendo is releasing some info about the story but isn’t telling us too much. The story seems interesting and even more that,…

Read MoreWorms 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 ...

Read MoreSnipperclips Plus a Welcome Addition to the Original Title
Snipperclips is easily one of my favorite, budget titles to release on Nintendo Switch to date. The idea of playing with someone else - although much less fun, can also be done solo - to cut each other into shapes to solve puzzles is fantastic, and the only problem with the original release was that there just wasn't enough of it. My wife and I blew through the initial worlds offered in the game, and while the multiplayer modes were fun, they didn't quite hit the highs that the campaign did. When Nintendo of Canada reached out and offered us an opportunity to ...
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #95: My First Trip to Skyrim
I was going to write about what (and who) in gaming I was thankful for this year but honestly, I just don’t feel like writing a list like that this year. Sorry. I am thankful for many of you though, especially Adam Roffel, Games Reviews, and some other wonderful people I mentioned on twitter. I am @df2506 there (plug, plug), please follow me. And Adam & Games Reviews and the other people I mentioned. Ok? So what is this column…
