The Sims franchise has legendarily great music. We hope you enjoy this playlist of calm Sim-creation and build music. Feel free to keep it running in the background while you work, play, or read.

The Games That Define Us features carefully chosen music and remixes from the franchise of the game represented. Music is a key component of sharing the emotions one feels about a game, so we hope you will press the play button if you’re in a position to do so. 

introductionJust a brief summary if this is your first time here: This collaboration is a 34-day long adventure through video games. Each piece is its own unique audiovisual experience, complete with artwork, designs, music, and (most importantly) amazing works of prose by brilliant bloggers around the world.

NEWS: Support on Patreon!

I am way to proud of those Photoshop skills I managed to do for this image

Following in the footsteps of many other bloggers out there, I have decided to try and launch a Patreon!

Patreon for those who don’t know is a platform where the followers of creators can pledge money directly to their favorite creators to help them create content. In return, the amount you pledge earns you rewards from the creator.

For example; I pledge to The Hillywood Show, The Try Guys, Normal Happenings, and dePepi because they are creators that I LOVE and want to help out so they can make their dreams come true (essentially).

I may not have the following of some other people – but everything will help. I am creating my page to help me keep on doing reviews of things – every cent helps and will go towards games and movies to review and my Netflix and Hulu bills cause that’s where I pull a lot of my stuff from lately.

My teirs range from $1 to $50 with rewards getting higher and higher for every step.

If you are interested in checking out my page, click the image below and if you feel so inclined to do so, pledge some dollars. Every pledge gets you put on the Awesome Pawsome page (which hasnt been created yet but once I get someone IT WILL BE).

WHOREVIEW: Kerblam!

Hello everyone and welcome to another WhoReview! I realize that at this point I am an episode behind on my WhoReviews – eventually I will get caught up. Between the holiday, moving and packing, and just life in general I forget to write when I need to.

But finally, here we are. Kerblam was amazing and blew me out of the park – read on to find out more!

GAME REVIEW: Pokemon Let’s Go – Eevee!

Hey everyone! This is something new for me but granted it’s all I have been playing I needed to at least write about it.

Pokemon Let’s Go: Eevee was the ENTIRE damn reason why I bought a Switch in the first place. I just got it in August early because I wanted one anyways. This game has been everything I wanted and more in a Pokemon game.

Read below to see my favorite parts about this game so far!

WhoReview: Demons of Punjab

Hello everyone! We’re back again this week with another WhoReview (late in the week as always… RIP me and my motivation).

Once more this week we had an amazing episode in all of the production ways. Let’s get right to it and get this review on the way and my screaming about how much I love the Doctor.

FIRST IMPRESSION: Detective Pikachu Movie

The trailer that I don’t think anyone saw coming. Since when was this going to be a thing? Who allowed this to be a thing? I want to give them a hug. Because this shit is GOLD.

If you live under a rock and haven’t been on the internet in the past couple of hours, then you have no idea that Ryan Reynolds released the trailer for the live-action Detective Pikachu movie that I didn’t know I needed. Here’s the trailer for your viewing pleasure:

Now that is going to be an acid trip. One big, major ACID TRIP.

At first impression both me and my roommate said it’s going to be weird that Pokemon are coming to life. But then we started screaming about how cute Pikachu is.

I am ready for the Pikachu/Deadpool crossover art that is bound to come. (Not like i’ve already started or anything….) Because let’s be real – whenever I hear Pikachu speak I laugh my ass off hearing Ryan Reynolds’ voice because all I think of is Deadpool.

I think it’s going to be hilarious. I’m a little iffy about some things like public reaction and if the story will actually be good.

Side note: I was writing this when the news of Stan Lee dying broke and now I can’t function. RIP Stan Lee and the remainder of my soul.

Doctor Who Review: Rosa + Arachnids in the UK

Hello everyone and welcome back to another week of Doctor Who Reviews!

I’ve decided that I’m going to add a whole new category for these, calling them WhoReviews! They’ll be under reviews on the main menu so you can easily navigate them – and I’ll be adding other WhoReviews to the category as well so everything is all nice and neatly done!

I’m a bit behind on reviews and that is my fault – which is why I am combining the two episodes! There wasn’t much new in these episodes really but oh boy was it still as fantastic as the rest! Read more below and as always:
