Nintendo decided to make a collab event for Zelda in Splatoon 3 to promote the newest game in the series, Tears of the Kingdom. It isn't a Tears of the Kingdom specific splatfest but it's intention is the same. The three teams are Power (red), Wisdom (blue) and courage (green) which represent the three pieces of the tri-force as well as Ganondorf, Zelda and Link. Splatoon 3 has had collab events before such as the one for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, however, this one is the most interesting one yet. This fest will include a completely unique stage. This stage is a modification of Scourge Gorge which is a standard Splatoon 3 stage. Below you can see this modified stage.

As you can see the stage is in the shape of a Tri-force which is such a cool design choice. Each team will be starting at one of the three corners of the map. The two attacking teams have slightly less space to work with then the defending team as you can see structures put in place on the attacking sides. This helps make the stage more fair without altering the tri-force shape. I will say, the stage looks really small, which could be an issue, but just the fact we finally have a unique stage for a splatfest I am more than fine with that. They can learn from this stage and refine ideas for the next time if it does turn out to be a little biased for certain weapons.

Splatfests have been very enjoyable in Splatoon 3 thanks to the new tri-colour mode but it was lacking a little bit in the unique feel of the event. Previously tri-colour stages had just been a slightly edited version of an existing stage, whereas this is a complete over hall. I hope they continue to do this for future splatfests, but if it is just for collab events I also understand that. This event will run from the 6th at 1am till the 8th at 1am, with the new map appearing at the mid point, so get joining in on the fun!

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Review] God of War (2018)

A near godly experience made slightly mortal by one glaring issue source: www.playstation.com ~ Intro ~ God of War (2018) is a 3rd person action game made by Santa Monica Studio. The game is currently available on both PS4 and PC. This title is sort of a reboot of the series with it taking a different direction from the traditional hack and slash formula of the original God of War games. I haven't played any of the other God of War games so this has been my introduction into the series. I have wanted try this series for a while, as I have seen good things about it. So, starting with this reboot felt like a great entry point. With that said though, let's get into my thoughts. ~ Positives ~ let's go over the positives first. To start with, the story of the game is good. This game's story is all about fulfilling a last wish, though there are many road blocks the main characters must face along the way. As I was playing I found myself intrigued to find out what would happe

This game is a N64 game so it will be available on the N64 app. This does mean you will need the Switch Online Expansion Pack to play it. The update with this game will drop on the 27th of October. Mario Party 3 is a great addition to the line up. The fact that it will have online co-op is a big change. Essentially though, Mario Party is about moving your character around a board with dice rolls, with the aim of collecting Stars. The player with the most stars at the end wins, it really is that simple. The most fun aspects to Mario Party games though are the mini games. Mario Party 3 offers a total of 71 mini games for players to enjoy. Something to note about this game as well, is that, it was the first Mario Party game to feature a story mode.
