They want to know if he still got it. They say the game’s changed, they want to know how I feel about it. Andre Burakovsky is the name, he is back, and we will get to find out tonight if he is truly still Dre. Him and the rest of the Caps have the tough challenge of trying to best a red hot Henrik Lundqvist and the rest of his fellow Metro Divison Ranger friends.
The game starts at your regular 7 PM start time, on your regular NBCSWA TV station. I have your recap.

“I didn’t need love, I had kegstands.”
In honor of the 2017 Game Awards that occurred on Thursday night, I have chosen to give you all my favorite video game of the year. Three of my runner-ups were featured in the Game Awards, “Game of the Year” category, those being the eventual winner, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, as well as Super Mario Odyssey and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG).
However, my game of the year is one that “only” just came out around three months ago. It is also a battle royale game like PUBG. Fortnite Battle Royale is a constantly evolving, fast-paced take on the Hunger Games like genre that is battle royale. The development team is extremely dedicated and responsive, the gun play is fun and not hard to learn, material gathering and base building is highly suggested, and you can play completely solo, with a partner, or in a full four-person squad within their field of 100 players all dropped on one map. The goal is to be the last ones standing and to escape the “storm” that slowly encompasses the map as the game progresses.
I really like the art style of the game and it’s much more laid back and more “arcadey” than the more serious PUBG. They just released a new 50-vs-50 mode yesterday for a limited time. Here’s the trailer for that, but I’d recommend seeking out some real gameplay from your favorite YouTuber as well.
