Midsummer Fantasy Renaissance Faire 2020 Cancelled April 30, 2020

Ladies and Gentlemen, Daniel Greenwolf.

This one really breaks my heart but I completely understand their decision. It’s held at Warsaw Park in Ansonia, CT, and my Fiancée and I have attended several times. Heck, I’ve published reviews of the event on a few occasions. MFRF was the first Renaissance Faire I had attended since starting this website and I’ve always been charmed by its interest in their focus on FANTASY over historical accuracy.

Midsummer Fantasy Renaissance Faire will return for 2021.

Deadly Premonition 2 Release Date April 28, 2020

One of the most unique games of the previous generation was a title called Deadly Premonition. Directed by Swery65, the game put you in the shoes (and suit) of Agent Francis York Morgan as he tries to unravel the supernatural mystery behind several murders in a small town. The game was open world and there was a lot of extra activities to take part in as you made your way through the game’s story.

On the other hand the game’s graphics were way under the bar when the game launched, and sadly the game didn’t reach mainstream appeal. However, the game was just too freaking unique to be ignored and it has made plenty of top “great games you never played” lists. That said, the chances of the game ever getting a follow up was next to zero, or so we thought…

Now, Nintendo is publishing the game’s sequel as a Nintendo Switch exclusive and today, we now have a release date.

Deadly Premonition 2 is coming July 10th, 2020 exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.

The Last of Us Part II Finally Has a Revised Release Date April 28, 2020

Due to health concerns from the recent COVID-19 Pandemic, Sony and Naughty Dog chose to delay the release of the highly anticipated PS4-exclusive game The Last of Us Part II. Today, in what feels like an eternity since that delay, we finally have a new expected release date according to the Playstation.Blog.

I know a lot of people at Naughty Dog and a lot of PlayStation Loyalists will be happy to see the game FINALLY released. The first game was one of the highlights of the PS3, and Naughty Dog has proven time and time again they’re among the best game developers in the world after releasing the incredible Uncharted games. We have been waiting for it through the entire lifespan of the PS4 and I for one will be ready to pick it up day one.

The Last of us Part II is coming June 19th, 2020 exclusively to the PS4.
