Spoiler Alert: This list will contain spoilers of the entire Halo video game series so if you've never played any of the Halo campaigns (I highly recommend that you do) do not read this list unless you don't care or have already played Halo. Please enjoy! 10. New Alexandria – Halo: Reach This has been a personal favorite of mine since I first played this wonderfully fun and inventive mission. Driving a falcon from decayed skyscraper to decayed skyscraper gave a fresh feel to the Reach campaign and brought me back to the New Mombasa missions in Halo 2 but I’ll get to that later. The DJ brute Easter Egg remains one of the best in the series as well as perhaps the funniest apart from the Johnson-Elite romance in Halo 1. The satisfaction I felt when I barely beat the mission with a nearly destroyed falcon was immensely awesome. A true standout in an outstanding game.    9. Reclaimer – Halo 4 This mission was the one that really brought Master Chie...

One of Marvel’s newest comics, “Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man”, may only be three issues in but it’s proven to be a superb iteration of the timeless superhero that will please both longtime fans and newcomers. Writer, Chip Zdarsky, is producing a fun yet engaging storyline as well as a fast-paced script that goes along perfectly with Adam Kubert’s zany artwork which culminates in this monthly comic being a starling representation of Spider-Man and one of the most fun comics I’ve read yet. This comic releases a new issue once a month which means it is slightly more expensive than other comics that release issues twice a month. You can find each 20-page issue of “Peter Parker: Spectacular Spider-Man” at a local comic store or online at Marvel.com for the price of $4.99 and I assure you that it’s worth the price. “Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-man” will easily resonate with fans of the web-head as writer, Chip Zdarsky, jumps right into the action. I found this dir...

The answer to the success of the Warriors isn’t easily attainable but it’s not as complicated as one may think. One word, Depth. The Warriors depth surpasses any team in the NBA by far. Just look at their starting five; two league MVPs with Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, the 2017 definitive player of the year with Draymond Green, the second-best shooting guard in the game with Klay Thompson and their decent center, Zaza Pachulia, only compliments what can only be described as the best starting lineup in the NBA right now. Of course, other teams in the league have exceptional starting lineups such as the Spurs and the Rockets in West to compete with the Warriors and the Cavs and the Celtics over in the East. These starting lineups just can’t stand next to the Warriors because they simply just don’t have enough depth. If LeBron James is out or not playing well enough then guys like Kevin Love and, just recently, Isiah Thomas will have to step up while if Steph Curry or Klay Thompson ...
