Over the last three years, I have attempted to keep up to date on this project and see how it was coming along. Between a wide variety of mini-games and combat that flowed smoothly, this game had dealt a devastating p...[Read More]
Since the introduction of video games, developers have looked to establish themselves and create fan-favorite franchises.

When it comes to storage on the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, both devices are abysmal. If you had stated that a device would have a terabyte of storage space when the Xbox 360 was out, gamers would be excited; during that time, 1TB could hold most of your games and DLC without ever having to make space.
