A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Adventroidvania – Mixing the questing of adventure games with a 2D sidescrolling environment of a Metroidvania, Dex is a split of narrative and action. The dystopian Blade Runner atmosphere, the lead female character, and unique merging of genres gives this indie game a different spin on familiar formulas. With a higher emphasis on narrative and […]
Kill It. Kill It With Fire! – 7 Days To Die sounds awesome on paper – take the hunting/gathering/crafting of Minecraft in a realistic-ish Fallout-like open environment and add some Resident Evil zombies and Left4Dead 4-player co-op. Unfortunately, the final product is so broken and terrible, it is actually pretty amazing how bad it really […]
Mechs Make It Better – Although it might look and play similarly to Triple Deluxe, Kirby: Planet Robobot has enough creative ideas to not only stand out from the previous 3DS title but from all other platform-based Kirby games of the past. This time around, Kirby is not hunting down King Dedede, Meta Knight or […]
It’s Official – Like the HyperX Cloud II and the HyperX Cloud Revolver before it, the Hyper X CloudX, built specifically for the Xbox One, continues Kingston’s streak of producing high quality headsets at a reasonable price point. The CloudX is essentially a repurposed Cloud II. The overall body design, sound quality, and features are […]
Making You Dumber – Several weeks ago, Skunk Software released Now I Know My ABCs on the Wii U eShop with an attempt to educate young children. Following up this abysmal digital download, Skunk just released Educational Pack of Kids Games as a sequel of sorts of their alphabet brethren. Unfortunately, like all the other […]
Bust – Looking at Skunk Software’s Wii U eShop history, it was only a matter of time before they completed their casino line-up of games to include Blackjack. Like Pharaoh’s Riches (slots) and 6 Hand Video Poker before it, Blackjack 21 is a worthless pile of digital garbage that contains no entertainment value whatsoever. This […]
Shell Shock – During the late 80s and even early 90s, there was no escaping the popularity of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. From movies, to comics, to action figures, these anthropomorphic mammals where everywhere and had several standout games including a four-player hit arcade game and an original NES game known for its brutally […]
Old People Are Gonna Die – Coffin Dodgers is a poor man’s Mario Kart clone that tries to put humor in front of gameplay. Death, in his hooded cape and scythe, visits a retirement community to start claiming some lives. However, the old people banner together and come at Death with a proposal – let’s […]
Standing The Test of Time – Originally released in 2008 on PS3 and in late 2014 on Steam, Valkyria Chronicles is a unique tactical RPG you probably neglected, didn’t know about, or simply didn’t have a means to play it upon its original release. Sega is fixing this issue by releasing Valkyria Chronicles Remastered in […]
Single Player Co-Op – Witch And Hero II is more of the same from the bump-and-kill gameplay foundation established in the original but is still a low-cost, addicting experience but with a few new twists worthy of the sequel treatment. Players of the original Witch And Hero will feel right at home with its sequel […]
