    If you have already played “Far Cry 4” then the title should make sense to you because Elephants in that game are AMAZING! Recently I gave in and got “Far Cry 4” on Xbox One even though I had not finished “Far Cry 3” which I had been playing on my PC. What an awesome…

    Unless you don’t pay attention to technology news, you probably already know that Microsoft announced its HoloLens last week.

    When I go to YouTube in search of entertainment, sometimes I indulge in the mindless funny cat videos that saturate the Internet, but for the most part I like to watch content that enriches my life with useful information.
