[News] Februarys Splatfest Now On!

 

Pick your team and splat it out!

Source: twitter.com/SplatoonNA

Another Splatfest is upon us. This Splatfest, about which day is the best day of the weekend, was first announced on February 1st on Twitter. The choices for this Splatfest are, Friday (Shiver), Saturday (Frye) and Sunday (Big Man). As usual, this event runs for two full days (February 17th @ 00:00 - February 18th @ 23:59), with the tri colour battles starting on the second day.

The tri-colour stage this time is Bluefin Depot. This is one of recent returning stages from Splatoon 1. The layout seems interesting, I do like how they took the usual spawn area and split it into two. This has made it so there is attackers and defenders starting right next to each other but behind a wall. This reminds me somewhat of one of the shifty stations in Splatoon 2 that did a similar thing, though you could actually see through a little bit of the wall. I feel this stage actually has a lot of potential. I suppose we will find out how fun it is by playing it tomorrow. 

From looking at polls on Twitter and YouTube, I think it's safe to say Saturday is the most popular, though the other two are very even it seems. So I can't really come to any conclusion on which between the two could have more votes. I am really not surprised by Saturday being this favoured though due to the reasons I mentioned in my previous blog about this Splatfest. I personally picked Saturday too as I like the colour as well as it being my choice for the best day.

Make sure to use your conch shells before the splatfest ends and to scrub your splatfest t-shirt every now and then for those sweet ability chunks! Happy splatting!

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

[News] Mario Party 3 Is Coming To Switch Online!

  Another game for switch online is coming soon  source:  twitter.com/NintendoUK Over on Twitter, Nintendo have just announced that  Mario Party 3 is coming to switch online. 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. Make sure you give this a try too it's a good way to practice th

[News] Ys X: Nordics Coming Overseas This Year!

This is very exciting news for Ys fans source: twitter.com/NISAinEurope Over on Twitter, NISA Europe have just announced that Ys X will be coming West this year . Specifically, they have stated that we can expect to be playing this new instalment of the Ys series in Autumn . The exact release date though is unknown. A limited Edition will also be available, though the details of this are also  unknown. Pre-orders are not up yet and there is no word on when they will go up yet, but we can expect it sometime soon. A small announcement trailer has also launched on Youtube with some clips of the game. You can view that here . When I first saw this tweet I had to triple check I was reading the date right. The previous Ys game took 2 years for it to come west. This is more inline with Ys 8. I am personally so excited for this, 2024 didn't have too many games for me but this is a huge one for me and I am very grateful. The game looks absolutely amazing and I am sure it will live up to my
