Despite stopping production on the Xbox One Kinect in November, Microsoft was still pumping out the adapters necessary to play the Kinect on the Xbox One S and the Xbox One X. Well, they were at least, until this week when it was announced that they have also ceased production on that item as well, officially killing the Kinect. This should come at no surprise as many wondered why the Kinect made the generational jump from the Xbox 360 to the Xbox One in the first place. Regardless, it really is a good feeling knowing this aspect of Microsoft's home console ...

When the clock ticks past 11:59 PM on New Years Eve and everyone celebrates a new year, its hard not to reflect on the past year, and what’s to come, whether in our personal lives, professional lives, or even our gaming lives. Nintendo easily won 2017, despite Sony having a really good showing, and although Microsoft launched a new console this year, it seems to have already sold the bulk of its units to early adopters, as sales have drastically trickled off. But what does 2018 have in store? Can Nintendo maintain - let alone build on - the successes of 2018? ...

The year is coming to a close, and although I didn't do my annual game of the year poll like I usually do, I thought I would lay down my Game of the Year, as well as my most played games this year. Lets dive in and check them out!

I have Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 and its season pass. I’m especially happy about that today because the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 DLC is out now! I haven’t had the chance to try it out yet, but I can’t wait to get my hands on it. Perhaps I’ll talk about it in a future More Thoughts column. For now, please check out the press release below for more information on this new DLC! “Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment…

I've been a long-time fan of ARK: Survival Evolved, and when Xbox released users statistics for 2017, it was no surprise to me that ARK was my most played game this year. The big draw to me for ARK is the gameplay, being able to jump into a game with friends, building crazy structures, taming a legion of dinosaurs, and exploring a huge open world is more important to me than graphical superiority. For the longest time - especially when the game was still in early access - it didn't look great, and at times, it handled even worse. Over this weekend I loaded up ...

Far Cry 5 is Ubisoft's next highly anticipated title in the Far Cry series, and this time around, the developers are tagging America as its playground for some crazy, over the top mayhem. The early looks and videos of Far Cry have been spectacular, detailing a bit of the back story - a religious cult attempting to take over America - as well as some of the gameplay, which surprisingly includes fishing. Today, Ubisoft released yet another trailer for the game title, "The Resistance."

Turtle Beach is no stranger to headset releases, especially those tied to video game launches. Although not directly licenced, it was no coincidence that the Turtle Beach Recon Camo headset launched alongside Call of Duty: WWII! We've had this headset for a few weeks now, and have really been enjoying most aspects of it. Let's dive in, and you can see if it's the right fit for your needs and budget!

The fans of the ONE PIECE franchise are incredibly loyal bunch, and after playing Bandai Namco's first release on the Nintendo Switch, I was hooked myself. It's very much a JRPG, but with a number of unique elements that make the franchise pop like it does!

The full release is below, but be sure to reach out and let us know if you are excited for this next entry!

The first Portal game is one of my favorite games ever. Its not a very long game but it packs a punch. And you gotta love that ending song! I never could get into Portal 2 though.  I did enjoy GLaDOS appearance in LEGO Dimensions though. And now shes back! A new Portal spinoff game, Bridge Constructor Portal, has been announced. GLaDOS is narrating the trailer. Check that out below and please stick around for my thoughts on the game.…

Yesterday, Capcom announced a brand new Mega Man game that’s coming to all the consoles, including the Nintendo Switch! Plus, Mega Man Legacy 1 and 2 are coming to the Switch.  Oh and there is a Mega Man X collection that’s coming to the Switch too. We have more information and a trailer for the new Mega Man game below. Mega Man fans thought that the series was dead. Capcom hadn’t done much with the franchise recently aside from the…
