Simulation titles, for the most part, are really hit and miss on their execution. Bus simulator and Airline simulator are two big misses for me, while Farming Simulator is probably one of the best in the genre. Construction simulator had a ton of potential to be outstanding, as it skews more towards farming simulator, as opposed to bus or airline simulator. And for the most part, I think Construction Simulator 2 hits more positives than negatives! The game begins pretty…

Luigi doesn’t get enough credit as a hero. His big bro Mario is always stealing the spotlight. Thats not so in Luigi’s Mansion 3 where Mario, Peach, and three Toads are kidnapped and Luigi grabs hold of the spotlight. This is 100% Luigi’s game and its a complete blast. Luigi’s Mansion 3 is one of the best games on the Nintendo Switch. Let me tell you why this game is a must own for your collection! Luigi’s Mansion 3 is…

My initial thoughts of Forager were mixed, and that was before I ever got my hands on it. It looked interesting, but at the same time, it looked…basic. But when my Nintendo Switch review version came in the mail, and I had to review it, I realized that you really shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, or say, a game by its trailer. So what is Forager? Simply put, it’s a pixelated version of any survival / farming simulation…

Call me an idiot, but Outer Worlds was really a game that came out of nowhere for me. How I missed it, all the pre-launch hype, all those amazing trailers…I’ll never know. But when I finally powered up Outer Worlds about a week ago, I was blown away but what I was delivered. It’s part Fallout and part Mass Effect, and it’s all gold, well almost. The story, while not shocking or wildly different than other space/colony stories, does it’s…

While all LEGO sets are treated equally in the Roffel household when it comes to our likes and dislikes, a select few are elevated to ‘display’ status and find a prominent position on our shelf. An example would be the fantastic – and now retired – Wall-E set that was released a number of years ago. We found it, built it, and it has never left our living room shelf. We added another item to the shelf last week: the…

The trailer for Death Stranding was released today. I still have no idea what this game is about. The trailer may includes spoilers…if you can figure out whats going on. Even so, the game does look interesting. Will it ever make sense? Check out the new trailer below. Death Stranding is coming out for the PS4 on November 8, 2019. Will you be buying the game?…

Its my favorite time of the year again: October, which means Halloween is just around the corner. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before but it bares repeating again, I love Halloween. The candy, the spooky stuff, everything. I’m too old to go trick or treating but I still enjoy eating candy and watching spooky shows/movies this time of year. I also love playing spooky video games! Here’s what I’ve played lately and what I’ll play soon. This year, I got…

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will be out in a couple of weeks! However its launch trailer is already here. Check it out and then come back for a few thoughts on the game. Star Wars fans haven’t seen a game like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order in awhile. The last few Star Wars games were focused on multiplayer and single player Jedi fun seemed like a thing of the past. Though, from what we know of this game, its…

Thanks to our good friends at Zuru, we were able to take the Ninja X-Shot blasters for a spin and provide our view on the toys. While the blaster game has largely been dominated by NERF, other manufacturers have received the short end of the stick in terms of public perception, most notably that “only NERF blasters are good.” For the most part, that’s a statement I’ve probably agreed with myself over the years, but the second we started putting…
