Since last year, Fortnite has taken over the gaming world. According to statistics in one online article from Fortune magazine, Fornite makes about $1.5 million a day on Apple devices alone. The game is also available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and the Nintendo Switch to name a few.

“I think the gaming world shouldn’t be like Fortnite. It is better with more variety. If every game was the same thing, the system would crash because no one would like to play the same game over and over again,” Diaz said. “I spent money on Fortnite before. It doesn’t have to be Fortnite.”

Sixth grader Hugh Hennessy is interested in giving BeamNG.drive a spin.

“I would want to play it because there are no real consequences, and it is fun to watch … ” Hennessy said.

However, the $24.99 price tag is putting the brakes on both Diaz and Hennessey. Not so for peer Aidan Hirth. He wants to try Beam.NG drive and post a review on the Youtube channel he shares with friends.

“I don’t care about the price. Why not? It would be fun for me and my viewers,” Hirth said.
