About a month or so back I picked up a cute little drumming game called Taiko No Tatsujin: Drum N’ Fun while it was on sale for Nintendo Switch. It was my first introduction to the Taiko series and as a past Guitar Hero/Rock Band fan, I really enjoyed my...
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is an ambitious sequel that follows the previously successful entry of the same title. Whether you’re a beginner to Puyo Puyo or a celebrated Tetris champion, there is something for everyone of all skill levels to enjoy. From a brand-new JRPG-like adventure to even a new...
Empire of Sin
The order was given. My trigger men were going to hit the safehouse of a rival gang. I had with me my lucky bat and two of my best guys, both of them armed with tommy guns (or Chicago typewriters if you’re feeling vulgar). We entered and all hell broke...
Developed by Gunfire Games, Chronos: Before the Ashes has, much like its own narrative, led an interesting life. Originally released simply as “Chronos” back in 2016 on the Oculus Rift as a VR title, it has since been reworked and updated as a third person outing and prequel to Remnant:...
The classic 3D platformer is something of a lost art. Sure, there are fantastic examples from the past few years like Super Mario 3D World, but games like Voodoo Vince or Rocket: Robot on Wheels just aren’t greenlit anymore. It’s a real shame. Not happy with the state of the...
With winter nearly at our door, many people may be missing the fun outdoor festivities and vacations to the snow lodge due to doing our part in social distancing and quarantining. But luckily for us Sims fans, we can still at least get a small taste of some familiarity with...
There’s nothing quite like the Devil May Cry series. Every successive release aims to crank up the insane intensity, assaulting players with an endless parade of ridiculous moments. Devil May Cry 5 is an excellent example of this philosophy writ large, but what of the Special Edition? Are players being...
Godfall
Developed by Counterplay Games and published by Gearbox, Godfall has the distinction of being the first game announced to release on the PlayStation 5. With this distinction as well as that of being a console launch exclusive, Godfall did garner a significant amount of attention. While some of the games...
Musou, or Warriors games, get something of a bad rap among gamers. Reactions towards the latest Hyrule Warriors title were fairly mixed, with some people losing interest the moment they found out it was a Warriors game at all. I’m here to tell you that those people are wrong. Hyrule...
Bright Memory
The Xbox Series X/S has recently launched, and with great success too! However, it’s not all smiles for fans of the first-person shooter genre. The most anticipated FPS game, Halo Infinite, is not set to arrive until sometime in 2021 (we hope!). Besides replaying some older first person shooters via...
There is a lot of work involved in building the greatest theme park in the world, and filling it with dinosaurs is the best way to do it. I mean, minus the fact that we have to start from scratch, plan for expeditions, extract fossil DNA, build dinosaur enclosures, create...
Several months ago, in the middle of the first wave of the global pandemic, I felt Activision should have just delayed Call of Duty this year. Modern Warfare was still going strong. Everyone was still playing it and the season pass model seemed to be working like a charm. Meanwhile,...
