'Life Is Strange: Before the Storm' Broke Me Too
Earlier this week, I brought myself to finish Before the Storm, the prequel to what became one of my all-time favourite games, Life is Strange. I'll admit, I took a while to even purchase it, and longer still to play it. I could, and at times still can, feel the emotional hangover from the original.

Gaming in 2019. Top Story - December 2018.
I love video games, they make me a very happy girl. And 2018 has been pretty good, we've had Detroit: Become Human, Red Dead Redemption, God of War, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, to name a few. And these titles have filled my hours with intense emotion, exhilaration, and fun! And 2019 looks like it'll be just as good. These are the games that I am particularly looking forward to.

5 Tips for Playing Better Halflings
With their short stature and sometimes reckless natures, halflings are often thought of as the odd-folk-out when it comes to adventuring parties.

10 Games Worse Than 'E.T.'
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial was a big deal in theaters when it came out in 1982. The story about a boy on earth befriending an alien touched our hearts, so naturally, there had to be a video game. Atari commissioned Howard Scott Warshaw, who created Yars' Revenge and the Raiders Of The Lost Ark Atari game, to make the E.T. game. The result was a glitchy, buggy mess, put together in a month. E.T. was widely regarded as the worst video game ever created, even getting blamed for the Great Video Game Crash of the 1980s, and even drove Warshaw from the video game business entirely.

Process of Development: Mobile Gaming Apps
It would seem as though there are people out there developing and launching their own mobile gaming applications left and right, and making tons of money doing it. Some of these game apps are so simple that there are websites offering self-design and launch services for such people. The design and animation within such games require very little skill to accomplish, and some folks didn't even have to do any coding to produce their games.

The 10 Best Nintendo Switch Games of 2018. Top Story - December 2018.
Another year, another 365 days of amazing games for the Nintendo Switch. That's right, I'm back at it again after compiling last year's best Nintendo Switch games of 2017 list. Last year brought us fun and beautiful experiences like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, and Mario & Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. I have to admit that this year wasn't quite as good as last, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to play. In fact, some of my favorite games for the system came out this year.

How a 17-Year-Old Video Game Inspired This Album of Electronic Music
The idea that video games can be considered art has long been accepted by mainstream critics. Time and again, this notion has been proven by games such as Okami and more recently Red Dead Redemption 2, showing that video games can contain the depth of an epic movie or even a classical painting. One of the most famous from this elite collection of games is Silent Hill 2.

'Super Smash Bros. Ultimate' Makes the Switch Worth the Money
The Super Smash Bros. series has been arguably one of the greatest games in the history of fighting games. The amount of success the Nintendo games have had over the years is astounding. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the newest addition to the series, and it hit shelves on December 7 exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. There was an enormous amount of hype surrounding Ultimate, however, it's fair to say that it has lived up to, and possibly exceeded, the hype with its chaotic, yet enjoyable, style of play. The Nintendo Switch has been a decent system to date with many enjoyable games to play, but Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has made buying the Nintendo Switch worth every penny (at least for me).
