Full Health was cancelled this week due to a scheduling conflict with a USF Women’s Basketball game. It’s okay, below is everything we would have talked about, like games released this week and news, plus more!
What Full Health has been up to:
Robert and I (Casey) competed in a Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament through the Video Game Club. We made it to the semifinals but lost, and then lost in the loser’s bracket. Not too bad for two days of practice.
Follow us on twitter and tweet us for a chance to win a Gold Hurly Familiar code for Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch.
