February was a controversial and tense month for video games with the release of Hogwarts Legacy on February 10. Fortunately, however, Nintendo surprised us with a Nintendo Direct to get our spirits up and gain some excitement for games coming to the Nintendo Switch this year.
The amount of games released is ramping up as the new year is beginning. Developers are jumping at the chance to be the hot new thing that every gamer talks about at the start of the year. With the excitement of game of the year awards dwindling, it is time to get back to the heart of it all: playing new games.
My favorite time of year is here at last: discussing my favorite games of the year. This year was amazing for video games, and it will be so tough to pick my top five, but I am up to the challenge.
November; what a month for gaming! Highly-anticipated releases, game awards nominations, and video game disappointments are all on the table for discussion this month.
Summer Games Fest is over and, therefore, the end of constant video game trailers and release dates. But, that doesn’t mean the fun is over yet.
As LGBTQ+ Pride month is coming to a close, I thought it was time to discuss my favorite LGBTQ+ characters across the gaming sphere. While there is not as much LGBTQ+ representation in gaming as we would like, there are plenty of wonderful characters to talk about.
The pandemic caused many games that gamers all around the world were excited for to be delayed. But despite all that, amazing games were still released last year; some games I consider to be masterpieces. January is my favorite month because it means it is time for me to discuss my top five favorite games of the previous year.
Halloween is my favorite time of year. I have always loved creating and wearing the best costume, marathoning Halloween TV episodes, and enjoying the chilly fall weather with a nice cup of coffee in a Halloween-themed mug. So, in honor of the Halloween season, we are taking a pause from the news and instead are discussing my favorite horror games that have been released in the last few years.
2021 has been a strange year for video games as the pandemic is finally starting to catch up with game studios. Many highly anticipated games have been delayed to next year, and there have been many lulls in new games to play. I have found myself replaying many of my favorite games as I have nothing new to play. Hope is not lost, however, because Playstation surprised all of us by hosting a State of Play showcase earlier this month.
After the unfortunately disappointing E3 conferences last month, I was feeling a little down. But, luckily, things have picked up again in the gaming world and there are some exciting game releases to share.
