Thanks to our friends at The LEGO Group, we have been looking and and reviewing a number of fantastic LEGO Super Mario products. You can read our review of the Starter Kit here! While my kids really enjoyed putting the starter set together, it became quite obvious that more sets were going to be purchased, as the kids really wanted to expand their course building options. Let's take a look at LEGO Super Mario - Mario's House and Yoshi Expansion!

For all of the technological advancements that are flying towards us at an increasing rate, there are still many gaps in compatibility that are glaring when you end up on the wrong side of them. Bluetooth connectivity is one such gap. Even though more and more headsets and audio devices are Bluetooth enabled, it is wild to think that current-gen consoles do not have native Bluetooth functionality. Enter the Creative BT-W3 Bluetooth transmitter, designed to help turn (almost) any device into a Bluetooth capable one, with your choice of codecs. How does it ...

When Nintendo and LEGO partnered up to release some building sets, I was incredibly excited. I had visions of beautifully crafted sets that utilized amazing mini figures. After all, have you seen the Disney Minifigure Collection? It's brilliant, and I fully expected Nintendo to match, or exceed, that line-up. Then the sets were revealed and demoed and my excitement went from a 10, down to a 4. Now that I've played with the starter kit, have my initial thoughts changed? Let's take a look!

Originally released for PS4 in 2017, Horizon Zero Dawn is a blockbuster action RPG developed by Guerrilla Games. This Friday, August 7th, Horizon Zero Dawn PC Complete Edition will release and will be the first chance PC gamers will get to experience this truly exceptional game. It is a fairly rare occurrence for successful games that were previously PlayStation exclusives to make their way over to PC, and we should all be thankful that Horizon Zero Dawn is included in this list. 

When LEGO and Nintendo first announced the LEGO Super Mario line-up of building block sets, I was incredibly skeptical. Instead of traditional LEGO minifigure sized sets, LEGO opted to created more interactive experience with large, chunky character and figures to play with. And from early reviews across the board - from brick review companies to video game review companies - reviews of the toys have been surprisingly good, pushing me to buy up any stock I can! There is one problem though - I cannot find local stock.

In Animal Crossing New Leaf, there was a place called the Dream Mansion (aka Dream Suite) where players could go to visit other  towns via the internet. The catch was that it was in a “dream” and so anything you did in the other player’s town didn’t count. Also the other player wasn’t really there. You were just getting to check out a copy of their town. The Dream Mansion was added to New Horizons in the latest update. Well,…

I was going to write about Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2 but this year and the larger issues with a splash of video game thoughts. I think we all lose sight of the big picture sometimes, then life hits us on the head and reminds us. This could perhaps be my last column or perhaps not. My future is uncertain at the moment. My life is a mess. I won’t go into details but things have gone downhill for…

Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack includes two side-scrolling action games (Azure Striker Gunvolt 1 & 2) that appear comparable to the Mega Man platformer series. However, with Mega Man as such an established franchise, is there a need to add another series of pixelated run and gun games to your library? We'll take a look at how these games stack up and give you our best advice - take a read and let's see how Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack measures up!

Nintendo has announced the second summer update for Animal Crossing New Horizons today. Please check out the video below and then come back here for some thoughts on it. The second summer update for Animal Crossing New Horizons is pretty exciting! First of all, the Sunday Fireworks events from previous games are being added in next month. I like that Redd will again have a booth where you can buy stuff. You can also has custom design fireworks like previous…
