Weekend Warrior – Traversing The Multiverse

Minnesota has many great restaurants. Game Informer staff is based, the weather is beginning to warm up. There will be no snow, nor colder days or nights. It’s been a busy week at work. Star Wars Day brought the force Tuesday. Jay Guisao wrote a review of Switch Sports. The biggest news this week was that Square Enix will be selling most of its Western studios to the Embracer Group. After this whirlwind of a week, we’re ready to close our laptops and enjoy the sunshine and warm temperatures, or shimmy into a dark, cool movie theater and see what horrors lie in the Marvel multiverse. 

The GI staff is planning for the weekend.

Alex Stadnik – So I was ready to talk hot about how it’s so nice in Minneapolis and how I didn’t want to play any games this weekend. Joe King Iverson, my friend introduced me to Rogue Legacy 2. It has been a passion of mine for many years and I plan on continuing that tradition into the night. Aside from that, you’ll likely find other things. Dr. StrangeIt’s showtime and on Sunday, I will celebrate my grandmother and mother. Hot Take: Mothers are amazing.

Wesley LeBlanc – A busy weekend is in my plans, but unfortunately, gaming will not be a major part of it. When I do have the chance to kick back with a controller, I’ll probably continue making my way through GTAV. Just recently, I played the Trevor torture mission and it was amazing. It was quite a bit, ha. My nephew, who just started playing video games last year, has a flag football game tonight, and I’m going to surprise him with Luigi’s Mansion 3 because he’s been dying to play it, so that’ll be neat. I also hope to go to the cinemas and check out other video games. Multiverse of Madness! I’m getting anxious that someone will spoil it for me, so I’m hoping to see it ASAP! I hope you have an amazing weekend.

John Carson – I must have brought West Coast weather back with me from LA because it’s beautiful outside in Minnesota this weekend! My weekend will be spent at a brewery, where I’ll cast spells with my Magic Commanders, read Xenoblade Chronicles, and spend time with my family on Mother’s Day. And I will try to get out there. Dr. StrangeAt some point!

Jill Grodt – I still have a lot of things on my backlog to play, but I’ll probably dive back into Loot River for a few more loops. I’m sure it’ll just be a quick session. I totally won’t look up and realize hours have passed. Nope. This never happens.

Brian Shea – This weekend, I’m going to be quarantining after a close contact COVID exposure, so I should have plenty of gaming time. My MLB The Show 22 playthrough will continue, as well as my Kirby and Forgotten Land playthrough. Since I was in the middle Star Wars Rewatch, I am in the mood for Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga.

Alex Van Aken – This weekend, I begin the arduous journey to my new apartment. However, it’s only three blocks away, and I get the pleasure of living on the same hallway as Alex Stadnik. Although I still have a few months to go, I intend to use my spare time to play games. I am having a great time playing the Overwatch 2 Technical Alpha, and soaking in all of the new character changes, maps, etc. Sojourn, our newest DPS hero is great. Her ability to switch from high jumping into power sliding is something I love. I have a plan. continue experimenting with Blender and Unity 3D.

You are engaging in some crazy acts this weekend. Is it crowded into the theater just to see Marvel’s new film? What will you do to celebrate Mother’s Day this year? If you’re lucky enough to have the weather, how much will you spend outside? We’d love to hear about your plans!
