Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour Impressions
There has been a lot of discourse around the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour experience on Nintendo Switch 2, some of it warranted and some of it not. In an effort to not bury the lead, this was an enjoyable experience overall by both myself and two of my kids. I would argue the $14.99 CAD price tag isn’t all that crazy for the amount of time you’ll spend with the game. The problem here is that there are too…

Not My Favorite, But I Appreciate It – Assassin’s Creed: Shadows 100 Hours Later
I’ve played a TON of Assassin’s Creed Shadows over the past month thanks to our friends at Ubisoft Canada, and I’ve enjoyed every minute of my experience. I still haven’t done anything, but with the imminent launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, it’s time to pack away the game and say goodbye. What have I learned with over 100 hours played? While this isn’t my favorite Assassin’s Creed, it did a ton of things I hope the series will uphold…

Reign of Jafar – Palace Heist – Disney Lorcana
When Ravensburger announced the first cooperative Disney Lorcana set that had players fighting against Ursula, I was instantly intrigued. However, the lack of product at launch locally to me, and a price that I found a bit too high, stopped me from picking it up and giving it a go. While I still think the price for this product is expensive, the latest cooperative release, Palace Heist, is so much better than the first release. If Disney Lorcana is your…

Is Fantasy Life i A Game of the Year Contender?
Unfortunately, I think the answer to this question is an emphatic “NO!” and that has nothing to do with personal preference. If I was handing out awards, baring some crazy surprises we don’t know about, I would be putting this experience right up there with the best of 2025, and for good reason. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, while not perfect, is a phenomenal game that is going to rob me of over 100 hours of my…

Sony’s GAAS Push Is Coming to a Crash
It was almost sound logic on Sony’s part. If you can make a single Fortnite, it doesn’t matter if there are a dozen failures. Fortnite is that big. So big in fact, that it takes more than a dozen failures to dethrone it. Why don’t people want to play games that are trying to steal oxygen from Fortnite and Call of Duty? Because they’re playing Fortnite and Call of Duty. They’re already in those ecosystems, they’ve already put a billion…
