Knock Out City


 (image source: Ebay.com)                                                                                (Played On PS4)

Welcome to my new series, this is not guaranteed every Friday, and sometimes other posts might be on a Friday but some Fridays I want to cover free to play games, whether I got them as a free to play games, got them as gifts, or via online subscriptions like PlayStation Gold, or events like Play At Home and so on. So every once and while on Friday I will cover a free game, thus this series. And today I wanted to talk about this game that just dropped. I played the beta and really enjoyed it, so what about the full game now that its out. This game is free to try at the moment so I want to see what that means.

Lots of people love dodgeball and I am no different so when I saw the trailer for a dodgeball battle royale I was on board. When I played the beta there was only matches and the hub world but now that the game is out, what else was added.

This is a team based battle royale, where you form teams and play dodgeball, you get a nice set of moves and a training area to test them. It is best two out of three and there is a time limit to keep things moving, leading to fun, quick matches. Much like the beta I really enjoyed it, and there were a couple different modes as well availed. There are objectives to gain EXP, contracts to take up and more. Ways to customize your character, different modes, single and multiplayer options, and when I played the game ran great. There is also a fun base to run around in, more content as you rank up which happens quickly and gets you into the game, and more. This game is still rolling out content and will have a season based structure and so far I am really enjoying it alongside other battle royales I like, like Fall Guys. This game is fun, has a good amount of content now as well as more coming, and a training area quick ways to learn gameplay. There are a ton of different moves and techniques to master along the way that add to the fun, and the style, music, and aesthetic of this game are also great. the hub world is also a fun place to run around and chill before matches, this game has a ton of charm and I really enjoyed it so far. I will review this game later and give it another look when there is more, so these are first initial impressions. So if you need a different type of battle royale, with a one of a kind style, I say give this a try.

Scrooge: A Christmas Carol (Netflix)

 There are so many holiday films to watch, whether they be classics, or newer attempts to capture the joy of the season, whether in theaters, made for television, or for streaming nowadays. And with all these holiday films there are countless adaptations of the classic tale of "A Christmas Carol". Musicals, animations, live-action, and almost everything in between. Using popular characters in the roles, such as the Looney Tunes or the Muppets, from popular actors provides different take on the tale in different settings. When I first saw this version of the classic story, it was because it was all over TikTok at this time last year. For one song in particular, one very powerful song. So I decided to settle in and watch this new, animated, musical take on the classic story all the way through and see what the entire package holds for this version.  This version as mentioned is an animated musical telling of the classic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, the tightfisted miser, spreading

The Pokemon Concierge

 When this show was first announced, I was indifferent. And then it came out and I watched the four episodes they had at the time of this post in one sitting and fell in love with it. The hype around this show is very real, I was blown away by how much I loved this show. Only four episodes and I want more, so why do I love this show so much? Well, that's what this blog post is for. The narrative of this show is fun for all ages but definitely has relatable content for adults while also having fun lessons for all ages. I am not going into detail because I think even a synopsis of this show spoils too much and it is so wonderful. The morals are real and down to earth, the characters are likable and the conflicts are relatable. The writing is fun, wholesome, and very well down, and has a good mix of humor and heartwarming with some great ideas. When I went in I thought I would have a fun time, and I did but I had way more fun than expected.  The lead of this show will be relatable for

Tell Your Own Story, Do Your Own Thing: One Thing I Learned From Across The Spiderverse

 This will probably not be the last time I talk about the impact of this film, I keep learning from this incredible film. The visuals, humor, story, characters, and messages of the film are just so close to perfect for me. Let's hang on to that last word, messages. Some may feel that an animated film could never contain deeper meanings or ideas. Still, if they looked outside their opinion, they would see animation as what it truly is, a necessary part of cinema. Animation can go places and bring ideas live action never could, and vice versa, they are both important. When this movie was first released, I saw it on opening day, and I was that excited. I love and adore the first film and the sequel just as much, it did not disappoint. I wanted to revisit the second film, since we have had more time with the first movie, and dive into some of the story beats, so spoilers are ahead just as a fair warning.  Across The Spiderverse takes our hero Miles Morales a year and some change ahead
