07:42 - Cons

08:50 - Overall

Pro

Retains that Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom Visuals

Runs (mostly) at 60fps on Switch 2

Gameplay-wise, it's good (Zelda control/combat moves are better than Age of Calamity)

Cons

Not much has changed from the past Hyrule Warriors game.s

My review/thoughts on season 3 of Spy X Family & season 2 of Amazon Prime Video Fallout

Tag for this video: #briansolow #tvshow #tvshowreview #spyxfamily #fallout #hulu #amazonprimevideo #review 

Note to Parents: Spy X Family is rated TV-PG here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13706018/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Spy X Family cast & crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13706018/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_at_pop_cst

Number of episodes (Spy X Family season 3) - 13

Runtime for each episode (Spy X Family season 3) - 24 Minutes

Note to Parents: Fallout is rated TV-MA here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12637874/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Fallout Cast & Crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12637874/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Number of episodes (Fallout season 2) - 8

Runtime for each episode (Fallout season 2) - Around 49 minutes to 1 hour

00:00 - Intro

01:12 - Part 1 Spy X Family season 3

02:08 - What I like (Spy X Family)

05:12 - What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Spy X Family)

07:14 - Overall (Spy X Family)

08:52 - Part 2 Fallout season 2

10:22 - What I like (Fallout)

13:18 - What I don’t like/Mix/Not Sure

16:06 - Overall (Fallout)

What I like (Spy X Family)

I like that we got to see a bit of Loid (aka Twilight) past (Episode 2 Avoid Getting Tonitrus Bolts & Episode 3 XXXX’s Memories)

I also like the bus jacking episode (Episode 7 The Red Circus & Episode 8 Take Down the Busjacker) & the situation with Wise agents' info almost getting out (Episode 11 Extreme Level 3 Situation & Episode 12 Battle to the Death in the Sewers) 

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Spy X Family)

Didn’t get to see much of Yor in action

I was somewhat hoping that a cliffhanger would happen at the end of season 3 (like Yuri finding out Twilight's identity)

What I like (Fallout)

I like the idea of Lucy & The Ghoul trying to work together

We finally got to see the NCR (New California Republic) & The Legion in action (love how they use Fallout New Vegas as the setting for season 2) 

I like the idea of the Brotherhood of Steel engaging in a civil war

What I don’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Fallout)

I’m mixed on Macaulay Culkin's character, Lacerta Legate

I’m also mixed on the ending of season 2
