Devon Game Reviews

Devon Game Reviews  Game 1 Circle Of Life Designed by Josh H. The object of the game is to get to the center of a round board with 120 spaces, where each space had a life event. Some examples of these life events are graduating high school and moving ahead another 5 spaces or failing a test and having to move back 2 spaces. To win the game you needed to beat the game of life and land on space 121.  What I liked about the game is all the event spaces had little jokes or innuendoes adding a humours element to the game which in my eyes made it more interesting and fun. The flow of the game could use some work cuz i got stuck a couple times trying to move around the board. Overall I really liked the idea of the game, I would definitely buy this board game and i could see it selling to an adult demographic.  Game 2 Nexus Space Designed by Chris. The object of the game is to kill all other players on the broad and to do that there's a couple ways you can atta...

Vancover Video Game Companies

EA Canada Located: Burnaby They’re known for Need For Speed, Nhl, Nfl, Fifa. They focus on PC/Console Gaming. Out of all the companies I’ve researched so far EA Games would be my number one I would want to work at. This is because they seem to care about their employees the most. They have a great work environment at their location in Vancouver with a ton of different amenities like an Arcade and a giant outdoor soccer field. They also offer many benefits to their employees, the work culture at this company seems like it would be above and beyond. Regardless if as a gamer I’m not impressed with EA right now because they have ripped off their customers in the past with all microtransactions and loot boxes, I would still want to work there and as an employee and I believe I could better the company. The Coalition  Located: Vancouver  They’re known for Gears Of War. They focus on PC/Console Gaming.  They’re a Microsoft first party studio who strongly values ...

How it all started

   Welcome to the story of how I (Devon Litalien) remember falling in love with video games!   I remember as a kid always being very impatient to get out of school so I could run home, grab a snack and race upstairs to my room to play whatever game had my attention at the time. Now I cannot remember what the very first game I played was since I’ve played so damn many but I do remember the very first console I owned was a black original Xbox. Looking back at it now, it amazes me how far technology has come. Every time a new console came out I had to have it, always begging my mom to buy it. My favourite console by far is the Xbox One X that’s where I do most of my gaming to this day.  I have also owned every day 1 version of the Xbox,  plus my personal favorite limited edition red and black Gears of War Xbox 360 until that got the red ring of death. As much as I’m into my Xbox I also spend numerous hours on my computer playing my nerd game World of...
