I've been trying to get into a mobile shooter for some time now to help my breaks go by or just pass idle time. I finally seemed to have landed on this one for the moment.
I was a fan of the earlier games in the Call of Duty series, but some time after the Black Ops 2/Modern...

I would like to preface this review by saying that Final Fantasy VIII is amongst my favorites in the series. I've always loved the gunblade wielded by Squall and the parts you find scattered throughout the world used for upgrading your characters' weapons. It's similar to VII...

This game definitely ranks amongst the finest of RPGs out there. It had its fair share of bugs at launch but most of them were patched out. There was certainly nothing that hampered my experience!
As far as Elder Scrolls games go, this is the most popular entry in the series....

As a huge fan of the original Mass Effect trilogy, I was stoked when this was announced! More Mass Effect is, to me, more Mass Effect!
Many complained about the facial animations, dialogue, script, story, etc...I couldn't help but feel like all of these people were just...

I play this game quite a bit! Right off the bat, I will say that it is pretty similar to Battlefield 1. If that game tickled your fancy, then you will most likely love this!
I definitely enjoy the visuals, just as I always have with DICE games. The lighting looks great,...

I definitely came to this series pretty late, about 2.5 years after release, as I was already pretty busy with other games including Destiny. Well, I'm very happy I finally got around to this and gave it a shot.
I would essentially compare it very closely to the Destiny...

A pretty simple rendition of the C&C universe. This would be great to play on your 10 or 15 minute break, or perhaps during a commute of some sort. It does what it was intended to do well.
If you're looking for a hardcore PvP RTS experience, this isn't what you're going...

I don't often buy compilations (no particular reason) but this one is definitely an incredible value, especially if you haven't played any Valve games (like myself at the time) before. Valve has their own style with their games and it was a very enjoyable experience to go...

Widely credited for "saving" the original Destiny, Taken King adds quite a lot of new stuff to do! It revolves around Oryx, who is back for revenge after the death of his son Crota in the Dark Below expansion.
As far as numbers and stuff go this expansion adds a new...

This was a challenging sell for Bungie as I remember many were a bit upset with the price tag when it was announced. However, I think they did a pretty good job!
This was the second to last Halo project for Bungie. They had a contract to produce five Halo titles for...

There's nothing too crazy about this special edition. It is mostly the Skyrim you love and remember, with a few welcome improvements.
First off, all of the DLC from Skyrim is included which is always a bonus. Dawnguard and Dragonborn will add quite a lot of playtime to your...

This expansion was easily one of the most loved from D1, alongside The Taken King of course. Learning about the formation of the Iron Lords, the origin of Lord Saladin, and the SIVA crisis was all some pretty badass lore. It helps make the Iron Banner a bit more significant, for...

Really loving this expansion so far! It is easily comparable to The Taken King from D1 in regards to how much content is added.
The new Tangled Shore destination in the Director is very fun to roam around, and you're able to much more than you ever could before in the Reef....

This expansion was definitely better than Curse of Osiris, but it still didn't quite hit the nail on the head.
I'll just go ahead and get it out of the way since I say this in all of my Destiny reviews: the graphics and art were stellar, as always. Really cool to be back on...

It was pretty cool to play a new entry in the Star Wars video game saga, and even cooler to play one developed by DICE. These guys are responsible for a couple of my favorites so I usually pay attention when they come out with something else.
One really shitty thing right off...

I've gotta say, a comparison I often use with this game is that The Coalition carried on the torch much better than 343 did with Halo 4 and 5.
The graphics are quite pleasant to look at, and I hope some of you happen to check out some of my screenshots cause some of them do a...
