Week 2 of the final stage of Overwatch League has come and gone. A lot of teams have adapted to the new meta and the ones who haven't have been losing points. 

One of Houston's biggest problems in OWL was they didn't have a great Tracer player. They ran a very anti-dive comp, but just didn't have an answer to a team running a Tracer. The best counter to a…

Activision Blizzard has just announced a partnership with Lego to bring the heroes and maps to the masses in the form of Lego sets. 



Though sets haven't been revealed, they will start arriving in Spring/Summer 2018 with each being treated as they treat new in-game events. I'm sure this means cryptic leaks and and TONs of anticipation. 

And expect Nerf adding some Overwatch themed weapons as part of their Nerf Rivals line sometime in January 2019.

No Man’s Sky Is Finally Getting Complete Multiplayer

No Man’s Sky was released on August 9, 2016 from Hello Games and at the time I was blown away. Every trailer and video was like Christmas morning to me. I said to myself that this game was the future of gaming. I bought it day 1, was so excited to play it. Once I got home, I loaded the game and began to play. The game itself was beautiful, I started traveling to different planets and universes and giving them names like “Game Fix”, “Spanish”, “Verlane”, “Link”, and even “Embrace The Glitch”,…

Once You See Bald Mario, It Can't Be Unseen
