My 5 Favorite Moments of the Ganon Boss Fight in 'Breath of the Wild'

After more than a year of playing the game on and off, I finally decided save Hyrule once and for all.

5. Getting All the Captured Memories

This main quest was a fun way of implementing our detectives skills all around Hyrule. After getting the 12 photos and finding their locations, Impa gives us a final one which reveals arguably the most emotional scene between Zelda and Link in the game, if not ever. And of course getting all 13 gives you a bonus cut screen after defeating Ganon.

4. Exploring Hyrule Castle

Running away from Guardians might make this final challenge tricky, and the maze-like map is no help either but it does offer Link many treasures like the Hylian Shield, the best one in the game. You also get to see what Ganon has done to the place, making your final objective that much more fun.

3. The Divine Beasts Being Put to Good Use

With all 4 beasts being given back to the champions, Ganon is on the weaker end of the fight as they take away half his health before the fight even starts. But don't feel bad for him, after all he has imprisoned Zelda for 100 years.

2. Squaring Off Against Ganon Himself

It is what we have been waiting to do the entire game, and in my case 65 hours as that is how much time I have put into this game! Once Ganon is released from his cucun, the Divine Beasts have unleashed their attacks, and the Master Sword is pulled out, it's game on! And although it only took me about 10 minutes to defeat him in both his forms (those shield deflects were not working in my favor) it was a heart racing experience I won't soon forget!

1. The Princess is Finally Freed

The guilt I felt for not getting to Ganon sooner (again, 65 hours of gameplay previous to the fight) weighed on me until I finally decided I was ready to complete my task, save Hyrule and free the princess. Seeing Zelda and her knight in shining armor (or in this case Champion's Tunic) reunite after 100 years did bring a tear to my eye. After all the journey of Breath of the Wild' was over. That is I thought it was until I saw I only had 18% completion. Oh well, back to shrine hunting I go!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
