There is nothing wrong with Just Dance 2016. By now the series is well-established, and people know what they are more or less getting out of it each year. Fans of the series will no doubt feel right at home with the music and modes, though an argument could be…
Read More“Adventure Time, c’mon grab your friends. We’ll go to very distant lands. With Jake the dog and Finn the human, the fun will never end, it’s Adventure Time!” The Adventure Time theme song actually suits Adventure Time: Finn & Jake Investigations. I spent my time playing the game with a…
Read MoreAll in all, Halo 5: Guardians is an excellent game. It tells a story about two teams, and in many ways is a tale of two games as well. While many shooters have chosen to forgo a campaign completely, or have become tokenistic in effort at best, Halo 5 continues…
