  • If you’re into the Zelda lore, and like hack and slash. I’d recommend both Hyrule Warriors.

    Definitive Edition you’ll play with a lot of familiar characters, I absolutely love tearing through enemies using the Skull Kid or Young Link who transforms into the Fierce Diety and just obliterates everything in his Path.

    Age of Calamity is in the era of BOTW and it’s a bit more polished and if you liked the characters in that game, you’ll love to play as them. Just parrying guardian lasers with Oborousa, Riju and Link is fun but challenging. And I absolutely love brining down a Lynel with Hetsu.

    I’d also recommend Super Mario 3D World (includes Bowser’s Fury). Lots of fun, but shorter levels and Bowser’s Fury is kind of it’s own open world.

    My only regret with the Switch was not getting it earlier in the console’s cycle. I’ve put so many hours into BOTW, TOKTK, both Hyrule Warriors, Mario Odyssey and Smash Bros.





  • I’d say Velvet Revolver. With most of the Guns N’ Roses lineup without Axl and with Scott Weiland (RIP) on vocals, broke-ass, 9th grader me downloaded that whole album on dialup (my family couldn’t afford high-speed at the time). And boy in 2004 did I listen the shit out of that burnt CD. They later released Libertad in 07’. It was okay…

    Afterwards, Weiland left and by the time he passed away, I had forgotten about them. So I went back and damn did Contraband still held up. It comes up in my mixes from time to time.

    The other one was kind of cheesy. Does anyone remember Battle for Ozzfest? The MTV show around 04, 05ish? Well, the band that had won was A Dozen Furies. They were a metal-core type of band (product of the time). But I absolutely loved their music at the time. However, by 2006 they had disbanded.

    But I think I like them more because a friend of mine, somehow knew one of the members from a forum that my friend ran, or something like that. Anyways, because of that he got Ozzfest tickets, which I had no money for at the time, and I had an absolute blast there. Drank my first beer under the table, my virgin ass made out with a girl, had a Marine tease me for not being able to do pull-ups, rocked out all day, and got burnt with a cigarette in a circle pit (still got the scar).

    I did meet the guys at the meet n’ greet tents, got a random sampler CD autographed and they seemed all around cool dudes! So thanks A Dozen Furies, you guys indirectly made my poor ass have an absolutely awesome time that summer!

    PS: I don’t really listen to metal that much anymore. Unless I’m working out or something. But I go back to those albums every once in a while.
