One of the first games I thought of downloading onto my recently bought Nintendo Switch was Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas. I remember Adam Roffel telling me how good it was. I remember reading his review. And of course, I’m a big Zelda fan. Oceanhorn looked like a lot of fun. So I finally bought Oceanhorn for the Switch and I have been playing it a lot. Here are my thoughts on the game so far. Oceanhorn for the Nintendo…

While you won't be able to breeze through the game, there are some things to take note of that will allow you to get through a hard level on your second try, or worst case scenario, your third. Check out these tips for getting through Mario+Rabbids!

The thought of Nintendo handing over it's properties to another company seemed pretty unlikely to ever happen, and fans of the company have often been divided on whether or not Nintendo should lax their stringent rules on the use of their characters and licence them out. Although we were all unaware, Nintendo made that decision back in 2014 to allow Ubisoft the right to create a crossover title with their Rabbids characters, as long as the game wasn't platform based. Ubisoft took that opportunity and ran with it, and now we are literally hours away from ...

When images of Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle were leaked ahead of the games official announcement at E3 2017, the masses of Nintendo fans online were pretty skeptical about what they were looking at. Could it be true? Was Nintendo allowing another publisher to use their assets to create a cross over title? Turns out, this was all true, but rest assured: despite Ubisoft developing and publishing this game, and despite them using their Rabbids characters, this is still very much Nintendo's Mario!

If you are hoping to be completely surprised by Mario+Rabbids you might want to be careful where you click this weekend on YouTube. Nintendo YouTubers around North America and Europe have begun uploading hours of content as the video embargo lifted today, something that many developers and publishers rarely let media do. As I've dealt with numerous Nintendo embargoes in the last 3 years, there is often a 30-60 min cap on captured footage. Ubisoft, however, is being a bit more lenient, and that's ok with me!

As the market continues to get saturated with different types and brands of headsets, companies are looking to slash costs as much as humanly possible. I remember during the hey-days of the PS3 and Xbox 360, where a good gaming headset would easily set a gamer back at least $200! Today, that isn't the case, as more and more companies are opting for sub $100 units. Enter Turtle Beach (again) who have launched the Stealth 600 headset in limited quantities today for the low price of $99.99. What sets this set apart from others you might as? Well, the Stealth 600 ...
