    Spray Paint Simulator ReviewSimulator games are excellent at scratching a very specific itch. For example, if you love power washing and want to expand on that particular paradigm, then Spray Paint Simulator is here for you. Somehow, spraying everything you see with a variety of intense colors is both frustrating and deeply satisfying. It’s slow, grinding work, but there’s no denying that the finished product is lovely to behold.

    Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time ReviewMy favorite part of any RPG is the job system. I love mastering a whole host of different classes, slowly turning my fledgling hero into a straight-up juggernaut. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is mostly made of my favorite bits. Mastering classes, breezy combat, and endless side quests are the bulk of the game’s content. Which I love, but I understand if it’s not for everyone.

    MSI Titan 18 HX AI A2XWAt what point does a laptop stop feeling like a laptop? The MSI Titan 18 HX A2XW is such an absurdly powerful machine that the label feels woefully inadequate. Surely a gaming PC with this much gas in the tank should take the form of a glowing red monolith, you know? Something three feet tall and festooned with cords and cables. A PC this powerful should require two keys turned in unison, or at least a comically large lever being thrown. And yet, here we are.

    Hands-On Preview: Nintendo Switch 2I got a chance to play some Nintendo Switch 2 games at the end of April. Nintendo was holding a whole event in Toronto, complete with staff, set decoration, tons of stations, and a big crowd of excited players. Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza were the big highlights, with Metroid Prime 4 and Drag x Drive making a big impact as well. I also played a handful of other ports and expansions. It was a pretty busy afternoon.

    MSI Claw 8 AI+ ImpressionsThe portable PC market has exploded since the Steam Deck came onto the scene a few years ago. And why not? Playing full-sized games on a tiny device is totally rad. On the other hand, the more complex you make the device, the more problems you run into. The MSI Claw 8 AI+ is definitely more complete than your average portable gaming rig. But is this a good thing? After spending a few weeks with the device, I’m still not quite sure.
