It’s been a long week and if politics has been getting you down like it has me, there is this hobby that we all share called video games that provides a temporary release from the insanity that is going on around the world. That said, let’s take a look at some of this week’s New Releases and the good news is, you don’t need an Executive Order to get them (oh wait, I kind of do… I can’t just buy games without telling my commander-in-chief, unless I want her to send me to the dog house…)!
Double Dragon 4
Release Date: January 29, 2017 (PS4), January 30, 2017 (Steam)

Remember that 2D side-scrolling game from a while ago called Double Dragon? I didn’t realize that there was going to be a Double Dragon 4 but there is and it brings back the 2D side-scrolling action that made Double Dragon the hit that it was. Available on January 29th on PS4 and on January 30th on Steam.
