Happy New Year! Get Your Game On is Sidequest’s weekly news round-up. Check back every Wednesday for more news, interesting links, and deals on games. What have you been playing this week? I’ve been playing Night in the Woods on Switch. It’s my first playthrough of the game, and I can’t wait to know what happens to Mae and Bea. I’m also playing GTA Online on PC because it’s free and doesn’t require a subscription service like it does on PS4.
Here’s some of the news we’ve been thinking about this week: (more…)

My youngest brother is a gamer in the loosest sense of the term. He really enjoys watching others play games, almost as much as he enjoys telling others how to play games. He especially likes completely dictating every gaming action to another person and then celebrating the outcome as his own success. He’s six (five at the time of this “interview”). He experiences death in games as an extreme annoyance and little else. Even when pushed on the matter he considers a character’s death to be only a failing on the part of the player (either my father or myself in those cases; if we win it’s all him though). So I decided to talk to him a bit more about what death means, and how games are different from real life. (more…)
