PREY QuakeCon 2016 Trailer August 4, 2016

Prey was first announced at the Bethesda E3 2016 Press Event. The original Prey game was created by 3D Realms and was stuck in development hell for years before Human Head studios got a hold of it and turned it into one of my favorite games of all time when they released it in 2006. Plans for a sequel have been musing around for years until it surfaced again at this year’s E3.
Prey is being rebooted by Bethesda and Arkane Studios, the developers behind the incredibly popular Dishonored series.
After announcing the game at E3, Bethesda promised we would see more of it at this year’s QuakeCon. Well, QuakeCon has started and as promised, here’s the new trailer!
Prey is coming in 2017 to the PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Barnes and Noble Pokemon Day Review August 1, 2016

This summer, Barnes and Noble Bookstores all across the country have been hosting free seminars on Pop Culture on topics ranging from Star Wars to Harry Potter. On a bright Saturday afternoon, Barnes and Noble hosted a pop culture seminar on the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
I have to admit that while I have been familiar with the Pokémon TCG since it was first released I had no idea how to actually play the game. I thought this event was a great opportunity to learn how to play and interact with other local Pokémon Trainers.
How did the event go? Watch the video and find out.
