As I put fingers to each key, I pause...I am feeling a wide array of different emotions ranging from rage to fear as the events of the George Floyd protests and the struggles of the Black Live Matters movement play out before my eyes. Being black myself but born and raised in a predominantly black nation, I still can't to this day fully relate to what most people of colour who experienced prejudice purely as a result of their skin colour. I was largely ignorant to such issues growing up and was way more concerned about defeating Bowser in Mario 64 and Goku fight against Freeza. Luckily for me, I was also a huge fan of the Kids WB Saturday cartoon block and the Static Shock series in particular. The episode 'Sons of Father' first aired on December 8 and successfully opened my eyes to the world of racism and the continuous fight against it.

The arrival of June normally brings with it some of the most exciting moments of gaming. For years now, June normally hosted the Electronic Entertainment Expo which would dazzle gamers with an array of new games/consoles to look forward to. As a result, we wouldn't normally see a large assortment of great games releasing during this time. This year will definitely be the outlier as not only there will be no E3, but June ain't looking too bad in the game release date department:
