Let’s go to the live slug reaction
I’ll be honest with you: I didn’t play many games this year.
I blame our wedding. It consumed most of my free time, what with trying to get the photographer, DJ, florist, videographer, and cake bakery sorted. People were also taking their sweet time RSVPing, so I had to get with everyone individually to get a headcount for the venue caterer. A word of advice: if you ever decide to get married, ELOPE. Take the money you would have spent on a wedding and use it to get married and have a vacation at the same time. Because when all is said and done, you could go someplace super nice for what you would spend on a wedding and still have money and plenty of room left on your credit cards in the end.
Now that I have provided you with a bit of wisdom, let’s get to the games.
Get nine Lego-fied movies in one chuckle-inducing package
Microsoft has announced some of the games coming to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass in December.
Kicking things off today is indie gem Eastward for cloud, console, and PC. Released in 2021 on Steam, the game was developed by Shanghai-based studio Pixpil, and takes place in the near future.
In the game, society is starting to collapse. The human population is at an all-time low as a deadly toxic presence has spread across the land. Those who have survived live in underground villages, but some still long for the outside world. Join John and Sam as they traverse the land by rail, where they visit towns and come across strange creatures and even stranger people.
Save $20.00 on all nine Star Wars movies in playable Lego form. Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is delightfully destructive, but instead of blood and gore you get satisfying Lego sounds and endless coins. If you’re looking for a game to play with your kids during the upcoming days off from school, this is the perfect pick.
Personally, I like to play it with my partner at the end of a long work day as it’s the perfect game to enjoy with almost no rigor or time stress. It’s available to play on Playstation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Check out more Black Friday deals.
It’s never a bad time to celebrate Star Wars, and Fortnite is making that clear with a new event dedicated to a galaxy far, far away. Skywalker Week has kicked off and will run until November 8, bringing with it a selection of original trilogy skins, some new quests, and the ability to wield a variety of lightsabers.
While Fortnite has certainly had its fair share of Star Wars content over the years, this marks the first time we’ve seen skins for arguably the franchise’s most beloved characters–Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and Han Solo. Each of these new outfits also has some optional cosmetic items that can be purchased separately.
During the event, you’re also able to round up Luke’s blue and green lightsabers on the ground and in both Imperial and regular chests across the island, and Darth Vader’s lightsaber can once again be earned by defeating him in battle. You can even find Stormtroopers scattered around the island again, and they’ll sell you E-11 Blaster Rifles for some gold bars. Lastly, if you manage to find one of the unvaulted Junk Rifts laying about, using them may result in Luke’s X-34 Landspeeder falling from the sky to dish some hefty damage to foes this week, too.
