Tricks, Treats, and Feats – The Golden Age of Halo 3 Rocket Race
I’ve talked about Halo 3 quite a bit over the years. What can I say? It’s my all-time favorite online multiplayer game.

[Revisited] A Possible Destiny
Well I finally caved and picked up a copy of Destiny 2; it was inevitable I suppose. I’ve only played a little bit so far, and I’m mildly surprised to say that I’m enjoying it so far. At launch, it’s far and away better than the original Destiny was at launch. So much so that…
