The best part of it all is that chances are, you won\u2019t end up with one of them fancy new game consoles! That\u2019s right, while stores are scrambling to restock their inventory with PS5\u2019s, Xbox Series X\u2019s, and whatever those wicked expensive graphics cards are called, the obscene amount of scalpers and broken queue systems will most likely ruin your holiday, if we\u2019re being honest.

Available in Air, Pro, Mini, or just plain old iPad, these latest models are guaranteed to deliver the best iPad experience yet in a fairly affordable package. Notice how I didn\u2019t say \u201cthe best tablet experience,\u201d because I haven\u2019t tried any of the other tablets on the market and I don\u2019t want to seem ignorant. Though I will admit I\u2019m a bit biased, seeing as I personally want one of these new iPads. I mean, just look at them! So many colors, an A12 Bionic Chip, an 8 megapixel camera, and all the sleek new features available with iOS 14. I\u2019m currently using a 2-year-old iPhone with iOS 14 and it works pretty well, I can\u2019t imagine what a brand new device could do! My third generation iPad looks like a brick compared to this beautiful new design, and take it from me, it runs like a brick, as well. To top it all off, these babies start at just $329, which is a <em>steal<\/em> compared to some other tablets out there. Of course, if you want to get fancy with it, you could find yourself spending up to $600 for the cheapest iPad Air, but that\u2019s entirely up to you. I\u2019m just the ideas man, I\u2019m not gonna plan your whole Christmas for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"18267\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18267\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=580%2C386&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18267\" width=\"580\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=360%2C240&amp;ssl=1 360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: TechHive<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>Roku (Any Kind)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve yet to step into the future of television, allow me to introduce you to the Roku. Available in multiple versions ranging from a simple stick that plugs into your television, to a little box that runs the show all by himself, the Roku is one of the best ways to indulge in the best of streaming services. Use my family as an example. Between our Roku (and our Apple TV as an added boost), we get access to HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, HULU, and Amazon Prime Video. Of course, most of these services require their own individual subscription fees to really reap their finest benefits, but the Roku is a great place to start on this journey. They\u2019re super affordable, too, with the Roku Express only costing $30. Devices that offer 4K streaming will run a bit more costly, but if you\u2019ve got the television for it, this is the best way to watch today\u2019s best shows and movies. As for streaming services themselves, I highly suggest HBO Max to start with. From DC Universe shows like <em>Harley Quinn<\/em> and <em>Doom Patrol<\/em> to a recent favorite of mine, <em>The Sopranos<\/em>, there is so much on offer from this service alone. Unfortunately, HBO Max doesn\u2019t have a dedicated app on Roku as of yet, but with similar casting devices you can watch HBO shows, or even purchase subscriptions <em>through <\/em>other subscriptions. What a world we live in! Do your family a favor and give the gift of a streaming stick this holiday season. Wow, I sound like a commercial already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-attachment-id=\"18271\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18271\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?fit=2420%2C1361&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2420,1361\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"3-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=2048%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3-1.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: TechRadar<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>Disney+<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While HBO Max may be a great place to start, Disney+ is one of the most original streaming services to arrive to date. Maybe it\u2019s the Disney bias in me \u2013 okay, it\u2019s <em>entirely<\/em> that \u2013 but Disney+ has been delivering some of the best content out there since its launch back in November of 2019. Not only does it compile so many Disney films in one place that it\u2019s nearly impossible to notice what\u2019s missing, it also provides viewers with some terrific original content. Notable releases include the short Pixar film <em>Out<\/em>, which follows a gay man struggling to come out to his parents; <em>Forky Asks a Question<\/em>, a series of shorts in which the <em>Toy Story 4<\/em> character Forky\u2026 asks questions; and <em>Once Upon a Snowman<\/em>, a short film based on the hit movie <em>Frozen<\/em>, in which viewers learn how Olaf the snowman came to find Anna and Kristoff. Disney+ has also been used to release new movies in lieu of typical theater openings, such as <em>Onward<\/em> and <em>Mulan<\/em>. But the biggest hit Disney+ has is <em>The Mandalorian<\/em>, which you\u2019ve no doubt heard about. This <em>Star Wars<\/em>-oriented series from Jon Favreau follows a Mandalorian bounty hunter as he journeys across the galaxy to deliver an adorable package back where he belongs. Disney+ is worth it for <em>The Mandalorian<\/em> alone, but I highly encourage you check out all the nostalgia on offer with this streaming service, available for the low price of $7 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"18274\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18274\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?fit=800%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,450\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"4-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?fit=800%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?resize=580%2C326&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18274\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/4-1.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: Xbox Wire<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>Xbox Game Pass Ultimate<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You had to know this one was coming, right? There is truly no better deal on the market than Game Pass Ultimate. It genuinely should be a crime how cheap and rewarding this service is. Bear with me here: access to hundreds of games \u2013 including every first-party Microsoft title \u2013 across Xbox One, PC, and Series X\/S consoles. Not only this, but EA Play is also included, with a backlog of some of the best games from Electronic Arts. Better still is the inclusion of Project xCloud, the streaming service from Microsoft that allows you to play console-quality games on your mobile device (just not an Apple device yet). Oh, <em>and<\/em> you get Xbox Live Gold for free! Perhaps the best part, though, is that all of this runs for just $15 a month, with a majority of retailers currently selling 3-month codes for less than $30. Like\u2026 what? Are you serious? How is this legal? It just continues to blow my mind how Xbox makes money off of this whole situation, but I\u2019m not complaining. Game Pass Ultimate is the gift that keeps on giving to anyone with, well, an Xbox, PC, or Android phone! That\u2019s a whole lot of people! Though, if you\u2019re looking into playing on a phone, you might want to look into one of those controller mounts, as well. Playing a game on a tiny screen with a controller can get a bit\u2026 tedious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-attachment-id=\"18281\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18281\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?fit=2048%2C1151&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2048,1151\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_4965\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=1536%2C863&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?resize=1200%2C674&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4965.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>PS VR\/Oculus Quest 2<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While 2020 may have sucked in nearly every possible way, there\u2019s no denying it\u2019s pretty awesome we live in a world with virtual relity. I mean <em>really<\/em> successful virtual reality with games based on licensed properties that look graphically beautiful and truly deliver that feeling of escapism we longed for decades ago. I was going to make this whole gift idea be about the PlayStation VR, considering the PS5 has just released and it\u2019s going to make PSVR games look a <em>lot<\/em> better. On top of this, retailers usually have good sales on PSVR bundles around this time, so be on the lookout. But do be aware, a new PSVR model may be coming down the pipepline soon for the next-gen console, and while I don\u2019t think this will render the current one obsolete, it may offer a much higher-quality experience that will be worth waiting for. In the meantime, though, I could point you in the direction of a newer virtual reality headset that I can claim \u2013 with firsthand experience \u2013 delivers one of the best VR presentations on the market. The newly-released Oculus Quest 2 is but a few months old, and it offers a display so game-changing, I sold my original model less than a year after buying it <em>just<\/em> to get a taste. Let me tell you, it was worth it. The Oculus Quest 2 is gorgeous, vibrant, and an absolute dream come true. Just know\u2026 unlike a PSVR, you need a Facebook account to use it.

The cardboard-centric add-on to the Nintendo Switch console had me working day and night to create some of the most elaborate cardboard structures you\u2019ve ever seen. From retractable fishing rods to makeshift pianos to steering wheel\/gas pedal combos, I frantically worked my way through three whole LABO kits in the course of six days, and it was worth every second to see my family\u2019s faces light up. I\u2019ve given Nintendo a lot of flack in my day for some of their marketing decisions and gimmicks, but believe me when I say that LABO genuinely blew me away from start to finish. I wanted to write a whole piece on how much fun I had with these cardboard creations, but ultimately I found it more helpful to just spill my laud here, so you can share the fun with your family this holiday. While the work may feel at times overbearing and slightly monotonous, the payoff is outstanding, with enough minigames and features to leave the family stunned. When I watched my grandpa laugh out loud, thoroughly delighted by catching a virtual fish with a yardstick-sized contraption made of cardboard and string\u2026 I knew LABO was something special. That&#8217;s a gift in itself, and I will never forget those moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"581\" data-attachment-id=\"18277\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18277\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?fit=1000%2C581&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1000,581\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"7\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?fit=1000%2C581&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?resize=1000%2C581&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?resize=300%2C174&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/7.jpg?resize=768%2C446&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: Best Buy<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>Blue Yeti<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>Microphone<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a wacky idea: have you ever wanted to host your own podcast? Perhaps you and your buddies have got a little website going and you want to expand your horizons amongst this vast expanse we call \u201cthe internet.\u201d Well look no further, because all you need these days to get a podcast going is a Discord channel and a microphone! \u201cBut Graydon,\u201d you may ask, \u201cWhat kind of microphone should I use?\u201d Well, hypothetical reader, I was recently in your very shoes. But then I took a chance on the Blue Yeti, and I must say it made my life <em>so<\/em> much easier! For the low, low price of about a hundred dollars or so, you too can own one of the crispest, user-friendly budget microphones on the market. Using this mic is truly a breeze, and with a third-party mic stand I purchased separately, I\u2019m able to record our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/category\/podcast\/\" target=\"_blank\">wonderful Week in News<\/a> podcast each week with no hassle. Seriously, though, I never had much luck with microphones, growing up. I tried to record a YouTube show with my friends back in high school, and our microphone was quite sad, considering how expensive it supposedly was (we borrowed it from my uncle). But now that I finally have a job and a real reason to have a good microphone, I treated myself to this baby and she never disappoints! I can\u2019t recommend the Blue Yeti enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" data-attachment-id=\"18279\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18279\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/8.jpg?fit=3360%2C2230&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3360,2230\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;7.1&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 5D Mark IV&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SpongeBob SquarePants\\rThe Broadway Musical for Everyone&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;946685022&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Marc J.

Back in 2018, the <em>SpongeBob SquarePants<\/em> musical arrived to Broadway with limited fanfare. It was a terrific show &#8211; with an original soundtrack composed by contemporary artists such as Sara Bareilles, Jonathan Coulton, Panic! at the Disco, and David Bowie \u2013 in which the kid-friendly inhabitants of Bikini Bottom were faced with the impending crisis of\u2026 the end of the world. The plot was deep, though-provoking, humorous, and downright <em>fun<\/em>, and it was an absolute shame when The Palace Theatre\u2019s sudden closure for renovations caused the musical to close less than a year into its run. A national tour would follow, bringing some minor changes to the lyrics and set, but this too would be ultimately cut short thanks to a global pandemic. So what do we have now? What can we do to keep Broadway alive while it remains dark in New York? Well thankfully, a full recorded version of the musical was produced for Nickelodeon earlier this year! Utilizing the tour version of the show and most of the original Broadway cast, <em>The SpongeBob Musical<\/em> is now available on DVD for anyone who wishes to view it. Which you all should, to keep that Broadway spirit alive! Also, go watch <em>Jingle Jangle<\/em>. I hear that\u2019s a damn fine musical, as well, which is just what the world needs in these trying times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-attachment-id=\"18282\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vgu.tv\/?attachment_id=18282\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?fit=2048%2C1151&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2048,1151\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_4955\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=1536%2C863&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?resize=1200%2C674&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vgu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4955.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong><em>Television!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, I\u2019ll admit it, I didn\u2019t do a whole lot of research for this list, okay?

I mean, there are some great shows out there for your viewing pleasure, should you be interested. There\u2019s also no better time than now to binge watch shows, so why not? You can always find deals this time of year on things like the entire <em>Game of Thrones<\/em> collection, or maybe <em>Breaking Bad<\/em>? I personally just bought the whole <em>Twin Peaks<\/em> series, complete with the Showtime exclusive season and the film, <em>Fire Walk With Me<\/em>. I\u2019ve also purchased the boxed set of <em>The Office<\/em> as a gift for my sister this year, and my own Christmas list to my mom included the <em>Mr. Robot<\/em> complete series. What? She <em>asked me<\/em> for a list! Anyway, if you\u2019ve been skimping out on television for a while, there\u2019s a whole new world out there to explore. Times have really changed since the whole world watched <em>Friends<\/em> together. Now we\u2019re all out here watching <em>The Umbrella Academy<\/em> and <em>Tiger King<\/em> and <em>Ratched<\/em>. Hell, some of us just discovered <em>The Sopranos<\/em> for the first time! I\u2019d hate to be that guy, though, he sure missed the boat.

Let\u2019s be real, this has been an <em>awesome<\/em> year for video games. I won\u2019t go crazy and mention all of the great indies that have graced our presence, though I would love to point you in that direction if you\u2019re scouring the holiday Steam sales and what-have-you. No, I feel I should instead let you all know of the blockbuster games that will no doubt be gracing the pages of \u201cBlack Friday Savings!\u201d ads. Oh wait, they already are. Games like <em>Mafia: Definitive Edition<\/em> and <em>Watch Dogs Legion<\/em> are on sale for less than $30 at most retailers. These games are both fantastic, so get on that. Same goes for games like <em>Star Wars: Squadrons<\/em> and <em>Crash Bandicoot 4<\/em>, which seem so new that these prices feel criminal. I\u2019m not sure what all the sales have to offer, but I\u2019d highly suggest games like <em>Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Wa<\/em>r and <em>Spider-Man: Miles Morales<\/em>, which can be played on both current- and next-gen consoles (upgrade fees may apply for some titles). Another new favorite of mine is <em>Fuser<\/em>, the latest game by Harmonix, and of course <em>Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> will be available for purchasing by the end of this holiday season. Alas, I\u2019d be remiss if I left out <em>Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla<\/em> which, though I haven\u2019t personally tried it yet, I\u2019ve heard it is an excellent addition to my beloved franchise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>So I say to you now, dear readers and gamers alike, go out and partake in the Black Friday savings!
