Video Games: Fun, Difficulty, and Cooperation vs Competition
If you tuned into the Nintendo Spotlight during E3 2017, you’ll probably recognize this image.
This is where then-president of Nintendo of America said one of his most famous quotes:
“If it’s not fun, why bother?”
It sounds cliché, and may seem like nothing more than a platitude, but this quote has dictated my philosophy on gaming for years.

Skill Systems In The GTA Franchise
Grand Theft Auto. When you think of this video game franchise, you think of guns, crime, action, and most notably…cars.

Let’s Talk Fortnite: So… Chapter 6 Season 1…
It’s been more than a year since I started playing Fortnite, but this might be one of my least favorite seasons gameplay wise. Let’s talk about it.

Demolition Man: Action, Sci-Fi…and Also Comedy
I went on a trip to Maui over the winter break. Hawaiian Airlines offers you free in-flight entertainment. Of course, that includes movies. One movie that has been on my radar for ages, but I never got around to watching was Demolition Man. I had seen bits and pieces of it when it would air on live television and my dad would watch it, but I had never seen the full movie. It always seemed fascinating, especially for a Stallone movie. So guess what movie just happened to be available to watch on my plane?
