Star Wars: The Force Awakens was one of the all time highest grossing movies worldwide. It was to no surprise that LEGO would be releasing the Star Wars game shortly after. When I had found out about the game I was instantly so excited.
If I asked you about NIER, you’re reaction would likely range from “Huh”, or “What?”, or perhaps some indescribable string of syllables meant to convey confusion. This game didn’t have a very long selling run in North American before fading into obscurity, and couldn’t be found on most popular gaming stores shelves thereafter. This is a massive disservice to all fine purveyors of the RPG, as NIER is very likely one of my favourite games I’ve played recently.
When I walked into the Battleborn demo at Fan Expo 2015, I knew I was going to have fun, but I wasn't expecting to walk out with a potential GOTY pick. Gearbox's new FPS with MOBA-like tendencies managed to blow me away in just 25 minutes. In that short, action packed session I worked seamlessly with a group of strangers to complete objectives, down bosses and basically stop the apocalypse.
If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know that I have a thing for footwear. Though I love all different styles and types of shoes, my heart lies with sneakers. So when I started seeing video game and geek themed sneakers online, both official and fan made, I just had to share them with you.
The Last of Us is a magnificent game. But you already knew that, since the game has won a ridiculous amount of awards and is generally viewed as one of the best games of all time. You might indeed have also wondered if it deserves all that praise, and I’m here to tell you it does.
We're only a few hours after Fan Expo closed its doors after another successful 4-day long geek fest. As we sit in our Montreal-bound train, we can't help but share our stories and best moments from the con: video games were played, swag was acquired, fellow geeks were met but most of all, a ton of photos were taken. Here are some of our and other attendees' best shots from the show floor.
