Honestly it would be the PlayStation 5. We have the Xbox and switch already so getting another one would be fun but less cool than another console with new games.

I absolutely cannot wait to try the new Meta Quest 3 VR headset. I have owned many VR headsets before, including the Meta Quest 2, but the lenses and panels in the Quest 3 seem absolutely incredible.
The level of immersion VR brings to video games cannot be matched by any other medium. The future is beyond exciting.
My husband used to paint space marines so Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 – Gold Edition.
I’m very excited to see how Assassins creed shadows will be. Japan is a very interesting location and if it’s done right I think it could be pretty cool. peace and love to all of you 🙂
Lokking forward to Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
