Titanfall 2 (Campaign Mode) - Needs More Respect


Whenever I hear about 'Titanfall 2' nowadays, I think about the bargain bin at my local video game store where are there are a large number of copies of the game selling for $5. Even my local dollar store had copies of Titanfall 2 selling for $4. My copy of the game was a free download on the PSN store where it was free for a month. I am only getting to play the game now as I am working through my video game backlog during the COVID-19 lock down. It is a small shame that Titanfall 2 is considered a 'bargain bin' game when compared to similar first-person shooter games such as Halo, Battlefield, and Call of Duty, as Titanfall 2 is just as good as the games I have listed.

Sunderland 'Til I Die: The Perfect Storm


I finished watching both seasons of Sunderland 'Til I Die on Netflix, and I have been itching to write about this documentary, and to write a football post in general this year. I will write about my thoughts on the documentary, but I will also compare and contrast Sunderland's overall community (from the owners to the local supporters) to my days on going to Toronto FC matches. When I was watching this documentary there were instances where I felt like I was back in BMO Field, and there were things that Sunderland do that I wish Toronto FC could replicate.

Reminiscing On N64 Super Smash Bros + Quick Thoughts on Smash Ultimate



As the self-isolation takes hold on me, I have been taking measures to decrease my boredom while I am staying home. I purchased 'Super Smash Bros. Ultimate' for the Nintendo Switch, and the purchase got me thinking about my fond memories playing the original 'Super Smash Bros' for the Nintendo 64.

COVID-19 Update: Stuck In Quarantine


As of last Tuesday, I have been experiencing symptoms consistent with the COVID-19 virus, such as having a sore throat, dry cough, and a mild fever. I remember being in a couple of specific stores where days previously, there was an employee in each store that tested positive for the virus, and so both stores were closed so that deep cleaning can take place. On that Tuesday when I was first experiencing symptoms was when I found out about one of the stores closing, so I immediately feared the worst. I entered into a 14-day quarantine at home in order to monitor my symptoms. I also let my boss know that I will be working from home indefinitely.
