A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Chemicals And Sugar Back in the early 90’s, Pepsi released Crystal Pepsi, a clear alternative to their popular caramel colored soft drink. While initial sales were solid, the fad quickly died and only remained in circulation for about a year. Fast forward to 2016 and Pepsi has brought back their secret recipe more or less […]
A Lazy Port – No Remastering The Marvel Ultimate Alliance Bundle came out of nowhere. With no previous news leaks of this re-release outside of a quick mention at a recent convention, the arrival of this bundle was a surprise to me and I’m sure other gamers around the world. The thought of getting a […]
Taking Out A Life Insurance Policy – Outside of Castle Crashers and the upcoming sequel to River City Ransom, the 2D Brawler isn’t as popular of a genre as it was in the 8-bit and16-bit eras. Dungeon Punks: Tag Team Brawler RPG harkens back to the beat’em ups of yesteryear such as Final Fight, Golden […]
Who You Gonna Call? Anyone Else! Activision is continuing their recent stint of releasing subpar licensed material with Ghostbusters (2016). This four-player twin sticker shooter is nothing more than a rinse-repeat grindfest that is only slightly more entertaining than an Excel spreadsheet. Although it was released side-by-side with the rebooted movie, this game has nothing […]
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 […]
