Video Game Review: Life is Strange 2, Episode 3

All of this comes in a package that is a little shorter than the previous episodes in the series, and the attention is split in two different ways.

Video Game Review: Sniper Elite v2 Remastered

Luckily, the game is still fun when taking part in its signature activity: sniping. Your heart rate is shown in the corner of the screen, and when you’re calm you can “empty your lungs,” which slows time and creates a precise firing point.

Blu-ray Review: The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

If you ever played with LEGOs as a kid it’s hard not to enjoy the incredibly inventive way all the structures have been brought to life. The way it switches between slick animation and silly, ultra-cheap stuff is fun, too. Beyond the cleverness of the world, there are many fun cameos and little winks and nods to other film series and Warner Brothers properties, though it does feel scaled back relative to the original.
