Here are some random bits and pieces from the internet, which never fails to deliver entertainment if you know where to look.

PSA: Far Cry 6 is free until August 7

If you've been curious to try out Far Cry 6 but haven't done so yet, it's free for the next couple of days, with big discounts offered if you end up buying the game. I gave the game a solid 8/10 in my Far Cry 6 review, praising the gunplay and visuals. 

Phoenix Wright vs Alex Jones

You've probably already watched the destruction of Alex Jones, but now you can see the Phoenix Wright version. Quite frankly, it's not getting old. This was a thrashing.

Ryu is ready for Evo 2022

Ryu is ready for Evo 2022, and word on the street is our own TJ Denzer is too.

That's one way to re-use goal posts

I'm not really sure what to think of this. Definitely not possible to do a Canadian version with hockey nets.

Bears are a treasure

Fat Bear Week is coming up in the near future and, if you don't know what that is, have fun down that Google rabbit hole.

Red Dead Redemption 2 keeps on revealing its secrets

Red Dead Redemption 2 continues to share secrets from its vast open world, and Strange Man is a great YouTube channel to dig into them.
