How 'Flower' Makes Artistry Interactive
First video in a while. Hope it's worth the wait! It's my analysis of thatgamecompany's lesser-known masterpiece, Flower! Are video games art? Some of you may be too young to remember, but there was a time when this was an important question. Most people saw video games as either children’s toys or murder simulators, but not works of art. To change this perspective, many games began to become more like movies, a type of media everyone considered an art form. Halo and Uncharted were more like modern day adventure movies, and Mario and Zelda were akin to Pixar films. And there’s nothing wrong with taking inspiration from other art forms, but if someone were to ask me to show them a game to prove that video games are works of art, for me, that game would be Flower.

Overwatch: New Changes Spell Success for Meta
Overwatch is a highly addictive and popular game created and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It has long been touted as the most balanced and up to date game ever with developers releasing patches on a weekly basis. If the game needed adjustment, Blizzard issued a fix. It was these "fixes" in season 5 that killed the experience for me. With the buff of Reaper and the nerf of Roadhog, competitive matches were not a choice for many.

PC vs. Xbox One X
This article compares the PC to the Xbox One X. PC The power of your PC all depends on your budget. For example, you'll have better graphics results on an Xbox One if you have something lower than, say, a GTX 1030 ($71.99). Even if you were to price match a custom build to the latest Xbox One X and the Xbox One X wins, it still wouldn't be a fair comparison. The Xbox lacks many features of a PC. Running Photoshop, endless options of software, producing music, etc. I also think the internet browsing of consoles has always been clunky and will never compare to the REAL thing. That of a PC. Sure you can plug in a keyboard and mouse, it's just a bit less practical for me. I like having a mothership of a PC that can run games on ultra, have lots of RAM and a nice CPU to produce music, render videos in Premiere Pro, work on Microsoft Word, stream with ease, have 5 billion tabs open at once on the resource hog that is Google Chrome. Great for work AND entertainment.
