MotoGP 22 is probably the best MotoGP game I have ever played. That might be shocking to hear, especially if you, like myself, think most of these games are basically to motorbike racing what FIFA games are to football. As in, the same damn thing year after year, but with...

Be careful what you wish for. I was really looking forward to what was going to be Aspyr’s next Star Wars-related release on the Switch, and was craving for the announcement of a remaster to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, one of the most iconic games in the franchise in...

Taito is one of the most important video game developers of all time. When you are the one responsible for Space Invaders, you have cemented your legacy for eternity. But here’s the thing, Space Invaders was not their only surefire hit. After all, they were also responsible for Arkanoid, Bubble...

This is no ruse. Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was my most anticipated game of 2022. Yep, more than Ghostwire: Tokyo, more than Elden Ring, more than the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. Ever since taking a look at it during E3 2019 (now that’s a name...

I don’t think the announcement and release of The House of the Dead: Remake was given as much attention as it deserved. I, for one, was ecstatic. As mentioned in my interview with the game’s producers, I love this stupid franchise, and even went as far as buying a Wii...

When I first heard of Kombinera, I was puzzled. No, it wasn’t because of its premise. Puzzle games with a minimalist approach are a dime a dozen in the indie gaming landscape, so that alone wouldn’t have been enough to pique my curiosity. The real reason was the fact that...

The horror genre is a finicky one. When there’s a flaw in a horror game, it stands out like an open wound. If you can’t nail its atmosphere, if you can’t fix its bugs, or if you can’t make it engaging, then you know you’ve created a dud. There is...

A retro-infused boomer shooter inspired by Quake, but with randomly generated levels instead of carefully crafted linear maps full of secrets and well-designed scenarios. No, I’m not talking about the decent (albeit largely forgettable) Strafe, released back in 2017. Nightmare Reaper is a game drinking from the same (several) fountain(s),...

Do you remember Midway? Remember the good old days when they would pump out a ton of arcade titles and other random home console games? Granted, most of their later stuff wasn’t very good, but I do miss the kind of gameplay approach basically only they were able to ever...

It takes guts to develop a game and market it as a Japan-only Xbox exclusive. Such was the case with the original Phantom Breaker, an anime-styled 2D fighter full of great ideas, but long forgotten by pretty much everyone due to the aforementioned (and obvious) reason. Even though a few...

You have to admire Atlus’ audacity with their handling of the Persona series at times. Sure, all Persona games start off as really good JRPGs, followed by an enhanced edition with more overall content, but you just have to respect the maniacal decision of canonically following up their games with...

That initial Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin reveal trailer, back at Square Enix’s E3 2021 presentation… boy oh boy, that was something indeed. A lot of people cringed. Others were puzzled, who could blame them? Some were revolted with the idea of an uber-violent Final Fantasy spinoff starring Eminem’s...
