Xbox Scorpio Is the Reason Microsoft Doesn't Have Exclusive Games
There's no doubt in anyone's mind that the Xbox One has a lackluster exclusive line-up. Even if the games have been relatively strong, there's still that missing AAA X-factor. While games such as Halo 5, Halo Wars 2, Gears of War 4, and Forza Horizon 3 have certainly grabbed fans by the wrists and danced with them, the entire list of exclusives runs approximately 10-15 games. It's tremendously less than Microsoft's wide-array of Xbox 360 games that kept us fascinated for the 10 years prior.

We open seeing Henry standing in his watch tower for the first time, out of breath and sweaty. He's looking over the mountains and forest, taking in their beauty and taking note of the tranquil evening sky. As the sun begins to fully set, his supervisor, Delilah, snarks on the radio from a few miles away. Her voice on the radio is the only spartan human contact Henry has as he tries to figure out why he's in the Wyoming wilderness instead of at his wife's bedside.

This Awesome Spark Cosplay Nails the Look, the Personality, and the Dabs!
Yes, his moments may be out of character, but they are fun and goofy none-the-less so that his fans may just get a sense of his humor, but also his character all together.

What Is with the Video Game Industry's Ellen Page Fetish?
I've always been a huge video game snob. I've followed the industry for years; while other 12-year-olds were outside, skating around parking lots, I was inside, busy reading the latest news from E3 press conferences. I'd like to think that one day, maybe 20 years from now, when a bunch of French dudes sit around and develop the video game equivalent of auteur theory and make it cool to name drop famous game designers in casual conversation (like Hideo Kojima, Warren Spector, Shigeru Miyamoto and Peter Molyneux), I'll be vindicated for all of the time I've spent glued to my screen and following the industry.
