What FPS Game Do I Need? - Titanfall, Battlefield or Call of Duty?
Short answer: All of them are great, so play them all if you can! Long answer if you can only get one or two: read on. We've all faced a decision like this at some point in our lives, a decision between several potential options. For gamers, its a two-fold decision that makes us question how many $60 games we can buy while still having money left to buy Mountain Dew and Totinos Pizza Rolls. Currently, any gamer who has any sort of affinity towards the FPS genre knows that the biggest decision to make this year is between Battlefield 1, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and Titanfall 2.

Donald Trump Has Some Bad News for Nintendo
I write about games, I don't write about politics. I usually try to not even read about politics. Yet I feel that it is my duty to speak out because #DonaldTrump is affecting the thing I love the most (no offense to my wife, my children, or the Fiery Doritos Loco Taco Supreme).

Sonic Forces Review
Following the success of Sonic Mania, a game that managed to wring out the last drops of nostalgic milk from the metaphorical udder, Sonic Team attempted to the recreate the lighting in the bottle with their latest gimmick ridden addition to the Sonic canon. It’s made by the same teams that brought us Sonic Colours and Sonic Generations and while I loved these games, I can’t help but notice the lazy stink of mechanical reuse here. See colours had wisp power-ups, little aliens that grant you special abilities and Generations was a nostalgia romp through Sonic’s past. But Sonic Team here has flat-out taken these mechanics and put them in this game, as you have wisp powerups again and most of the levels are mashups of previous games.

Why I Love: 'Team Fortress 2'
Truthfully, I feel a bit guilty when talking about video games so much. I feel this way because I don’t find myself playing them as often as I once did. There’s three reasons for this. The first is that I feel as though the golden era of video games has come to an end (more on that in the future). The second reason is that gaming has become ridiculously expensive over the years, and being a student in 2017 doesn’t exactly have its financial perks.
