Watch Dogs – First Impressions

Just like with Wolfenstein, I was not able to get a review copy of Watch Dogs ahead of the release date, so my review won’t arrive until this weekend or early next week.  However, I did pick up a copy last night and began my playthrough of it.  Keep in mind, this is not an official review because I have only played the first four hours.  So here are my first impressions!

Wolfenstein: The New Order Review

I’ve known about this for some time now, yet I didn’t expect to be so apathetic towards the new consoles. I still don’t own an Xbox One, and I don’t expect I will until Halo 5 shows up.
