More Thoughts From Me #86: The Rabbids Invade the Mushroom Kingdom
I didn’t believe the rumor about a Mario crossover game with Ubisoft’s Rabbids. I thought it was just something somebody with a lot of time and an overactive imagination came up with. And when I found out it was true, I wondered how good a game with Mario and the Rabbids could be. I was very impressed by the first footage of the game though. I was starting to get excited about Mario and Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. Would this game…

SteamWorld Dig 2 – Official Launch Trailer
Steamworld Dig 2 is coming to the Nintendo Switch this Thursday! Here is a new trailer for the game and my impressions of it. I loved this new Steamworld Dig 2 trailer.

I like how the new menus are laid…

Music to Rayman’s Ears: A Look at the Musical Genius of Rayman Legends Definitive Edition
I love music in video games. I see video games as a visual, audio, and tactile experience. A bad audio experience won’t kill a game but its always a disappointment to me when the audio isn’t where it should be. Of course, not all games can have a great score. I’d settle for a good score. But wow, isn’t it great when developers go the extra mile and create an amazing audio experience? Rayman Legends Definitive Edition for the Nintendo…

So to get footage and a demo on the same day was a shock and delight. I have to admit I’ve been pretty excited…
