A couple of weeks ago I was given access to the Destiny 2 Beta. Wow, what a crazy game. I am not one for first person shooter type games and haven’t played them in a while. However, Destiny 2 was pretty dang amazing. The graphics were incredible and the game was a lot of fun. I’m actually going to be receiving a copy of the game for the Xbox One on launch day. I haven’t played it enough to really give a full on in depth review of the game. I played it for a couple of hours before I had to stop. I’m not used to the whole first person shooter thing and got a little dizzy. But, while I did play I had a good time up until I had no clue where to go. I am getting old in the gaming world. Luckily there are already tons of people out there making great videos of the game and they can help you though the hard parts. It is launch day so why don’t you check out this fantastic live-action video. The two-minute live-action spot, “New Legends Will Rise,” depicts Destiny 2’s heroic character, Cayde-6, as he rallies three Guardians into a battle to defend Earth against the invading Red Legion. The spot is directed by Kong: Skull Island Director, Jordan Vogt-Roberts, and set to ‘Sabotage’ by Beastie Boys. Cayde-6 is voice by none other than Nathan Fillion and he plays it to his playful best.

You can pick up the game today. Fans of this genre of gaming will really love it. I’ve never seen so many crazy weapons and cool characters. So choose your Guardian and get into the fight! Here is the Official Trailer of the game and below is an official launch press release with so much great information for you. Take a look.

Disney, Movie, Video Game

Cars 3 Hits the Big Screen and Cars 3: Driven to Win Hits the Small.

Cars 3 Race Lightning

This has been an exciting week of video games for the Nintendo Switch. Warner Bros. Interactive sent me a download code for the game Cars 3: Driven to Win for free. Opinions on the movie are all my own and also the reactions of my kids.

This exciting driving game based on the Cars 3 movie that came out in theaters today has been so much fun to play. It is more than a driving game, there are some fun tracks to run based on all the cool tracks that Lightning McQueen races in the movie. the game picks up after the movie and so if you haven’t see the movie there may be some spoilers. Don’t worry about that, go see the movie, it is fantastic!

The game is a lot of fun to play. The controls are easy to use and what I love about playing the game on the switch is that I have two sets of joycon which would allow the whole family to race at the same time. So far, though, we haven’t all been together for more than 15 minutes at all. Andrew and I have played and then I played more by myself. I tried a whole bunch of joycon combinations, dual joycons, a single joycon and both on the Nintendo Switch itself. It was a smooth transition as far as controls.

Cars 3 Crazy8s

The game is also funny. In the movie Lightning McQueen has been racing for a few years and he has a good relationship with the other drivers. They are out there having fun and teasing each other. That is happening in the game.

You can also do backwards driving and aerial stunts. I love the stunts!

Cars 3 Cruz Ramirez and Jackson Playground Loop

I’m trying to get my characters as high as they can go and get all the awards. There are a ton of characters to choose from, too. New characters and original ones, different repaints and styles. There are also so many play modes. I love Battle! I love that you can race in the crazy 8 track from the movie. That was insane!
