Game Reviews

Okay, I know. Mass Effect 2 isn't THAT old yet. However it had a huge impact and helped form the current gaming landscape and with Andromeda on the way, I felt like it was time to take another look...

There are some great games that are based on books, Metro 2033 and The Witcher Series comes to mind. The Dwarves, loosely based on Markus Heitz's book of the same name. Before I did research...

There are some games that are sadly overlooked in the States, which hurts certain developers and makes them abandon localizing certain franchises. Sega's Yakuza has thankfully been localized for the United States, even though sometimes...

Oh, hello Telltale. Um... it's been a while... hasn't it? Haha, the good times we had... every time I recall the fun we had with seasons one and two of the Walking Dead and Wolf...

Papa Louie’s restaurant empire has come a long, long way. From Papa’s Pizzeria to his Wingeria and Hot Doggeria, the inventive diners have entertained millions of players. In these games, you work at the restaurant...

Telltale Games has become synonymous with storytelling. Giving gamers the opportunity to put themselves in the shoes of characters from things like Game of Thrones, Borderlands, and The Walking Dead has set them apart in...

I have been a fan of the Atelier series since the first game released in the US on the PlayStation 2 back in 2005. Series fans have been fascinated by the concept of the alchemy...

Rockstar Games has never been one to back down from controversy, but unfortunately with Manhunt 2 they had to bend to the rules or have no systems to publish on. Back before Manhunt 2 hit...

Earthworm Jim came about when many of us were a lot younger and I feel like he probably looks pretty strange to gamers who didn't get into video games until more recently. He may not...

Tis the season to be jolly and to slay zombies in a festive manner! Dead Rising 4 is finally here after a long, controversial journey and it plans to be even more insanely bloodthirsty than...

Beenox Games really outdid themselves with their first entry into the Spider-Man franchise. Shattered Dimensions did everything right and very little wrong. Seeing that success Activision had them pump out a sequel, Spider-Man: Edge of Time,...

Halo 2 was something truly wonderful and it remains so even to this day. Hype can be a very powerful ally or the beginning of a game's downfall. There are so many games that have...

Disney has done it again. The animated film studio’s latest effort, Moana, is an international hit, scoring big box office numbers and ranking as one of Rotten Tomatoes’ top movies of the year. The family-friendly,...

After beating the first Spider-Man game, I put Spider-Man back in the PlayStation to enjoy Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro, and unfortunately this is one of those weird times in gaming where the sequel is not as good or...

“Do it your way!” is a phrase that makes me sad often in heist titles. Usually when they say that, they actually mean “play it one way if you can, but the other unpolished way...

Halo: Combat Evolved is fifteen years old as I sit here and write this review. Let that sink in for a minute. No matter how long you let it take to sink in, it doesn't. I...

Spider-Man has been in video games for quite some time now, and somehow his games have never hit the low point in licensed gaming. Sure there have been some sub-par installments, but nothing that rivals...

Visual novels are a love-hate relationship. I want to love them so dearly. I love narratives like a dear friend, excited by all the new ways he finds to excite me. Although they keep disappointing me,...

Rockstar has announced that there will be a third entry into the Red Dead series. What's that you say? There are THREE Red Dead games produced by Rockstar? The whole series didn't begin on the...

In a year where there are an abundance of great shooters coming out, the team at Infinity Ward really had no choice but to do something different with their particular brand of military shooter. While...

Oh if there was a match made in heaven, it would be you and I, Killing Floor 2. We'd skip and dance and laugh. I'd relay the time you made me so anxious with your last-stand...

The thought that kept popping into my head while playing through the cute puzzle game Waddle Home was a sad one: why can't I play this without VR? This thought, despite sounding very disparaging, existed because I...

It's hard to talk about Crash Bandicoot without first acknowledging his history, impact, and legacy. Many younger gamers may not remember Crash Bandicoot when he was in his prime but there was definitely a time...

Pirate Pop Plus is clearly a labor of love and it shows on every screen flicker. It calls back to an earlier time in gaming where phrases like "Just one more quarter!" were common and...

Super Rad Raygun takes us back to the era when big hair, shoulder pads, and MTV were popular and the fear of communism was alive and well. It was a different time and it's a...

The title to this game is a bit misleading. When I saw that I was reviewing Super Dungeon Bros, I assumed that this game would rely heavily on platforming. I was wrong; this game plays...
