For years I’ve touted “Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag” as the best game in the series. Pirates, naval warfare, enjoyable combat and activities, and a massive world to explore are some of my favorite aspects of that adventure.
As I set out to learn the latest fighting game to hit stores, “Samurai Showdown,” I found myself recalling an iconic conversation in the swamps of Dagobah: “I cannot teach him, the boy has no patience,” Yoda explained to Obi-Wan in “The Empire Strikes Back.” The force ghost responded, “He wi…

WACO — Growing up I use to take my younger brother to the zoo—now as a 17-year-old he still enjoys going. Because my younger brother and I are seven years apart, it was hard finding activities or trips that were age appropriate and enjoyable for both of us, but visits to the zoo always were.
