The Week In Games: Skateboard Around The World

I can’t skate. At this point. I’ll never be able to do it. But, I can (and do) play skateboarding video games. They let me live out my skater punk fantasies without breaking any bones. And soon, I’ll have a new game to scratch that skateboard itch when OlliOlli World drops in on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC later this week.

I probably won’t get around to playing OlliOlli this week though, as I want to check out the Diablo-MMO-F2P-like-thing that is Lost Ark. It looks cool. I’ve been wanting to play something like that for some time now and it’s free so, why not, I’ll check it out. Worst case scenario: It sucks, I uninstall it and go play more Destiny 2.

Also: Holy shit, apparently all the Switch games decided to come out on the same day, now that some time has passed since Pokemon was released. Wow.
