South of the March, Woodo, and Penguin Colony are making some buzz on the internet and social media, and ZombiePie broke out their magnifying glass to figure out if any of that is warranted after checking out their public demos

XenoFeels got a bit of viral attention a while back and some people are calling the demo for Echoes of Aincrad one of the worst of 2026. So, ZombiePie decided to put on their scientist gloves to see if the internet is lying or telling the truth.

Sorta-Pinkish Mento Writes Review for Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom, a taxicab 3D platformer that douses you in the gasoline that is its vibrant Sega-style visuals before tossing the lit match that is multiple layers of clandestine tech reveals to seal the deal. I should not be allowed near inflammable materials, is probably what this metaphor is reaching for.

Trying to find some fun with all the dour news, I've focused in on the puzzles...

Some weeks you just want to take things easy, relax in the summer heat, and hope your cat doesn't run off with your magic wand and cause reality to fall apart at the seams. Because that sounds like way too much to deal with and it's like 90 degrees outside.

We're switching things up on Game OVA this year: Rather than watching old-school anime and playing games based on same, we're looking at anime inspired by games instead. Since I can't help myself, this premiere will cover the first season of Ys OVAs from 1989.

When choosing what to play next it's important to embrace new genres and new ideas whenever possible, especially with the precarious state the industry is currently in, which is why this week Mento's playing something that feels like a DOS game from 1989 (positive).

When I wasn't boiling in my britches this June (not an euphemism; it's been an uncomfortably warm month) I managed to squeeze in plenty of Indie games, N64 platformers, Eurotrash NES tapes, Renaissance Minesweeper, Goon Souls, seasonal anime, far more Tingle than I would've preferred, and (gasp!) the end of an epochal Dark Cloud 2 playthrough.

Sony has not earned the good faith to have me buying games from their digital store. Many things they have done have served as a warning. There is no comfort in buying a digital game from Sony. I am not sure what they could do to make me feel that way. I will buy on Steam instead. I'll explain my personal position below, why I found physical more convenient than digital overall, and why I find Steam more convenient than PS Store, and why PC may become more comfortable for console gamers.

When I was contemplating the future of this series, I did consider making a big change. A reset? Nah, if anything I was thinking of covering even more exploraction games. Can't have too many of those. Here's another one, from Croatian team Today's Games.

This special season of 64 in 64 has one last pair of N64 games to tide you over until autumn: we're looking at the deceptively clever Chameleon Twist and yet another Looney Tunes tie-in, Duck Dodgers Starring Daffy Duck.

But the thing that really fascinates me about Lies of P is how much its central themes mirror what the game is. What's the difference between a human, and a puppet? What's the difference between the original, and what it inspires?

Mento puts his light switch rave on hold just long enough to check out the new Dangeresque adventure game mini-series, introducing the most hard-hitting and legally accurate point-and-click police procedurals since Sam & Max.

We got another couple of retro reviews for N64 games here, since that's suddenly become the hot new thing on Giant Bomb. No need to thank me all at once; I know how much of a tastemaker I am around these par- wait, come back! We're doing Looney Tunes: Taz Express and Doraemon 2: Nobita to Hikari no Shinden this time! Two games everyone loves and have definitely heard of before!

It's a definitive ranking of Halo games, excluding the first one because my nostalgia is too strong.

With the reveal of Persona 4 Revival, I wanted to jumpstart the conversation about Kanji's arc in the game and what should hopefully be updated in the remake.

Hey, hey, check it out: Mento's reviewing another exploraction game. It must be a day with a Y in it. Well, this one's got a steampunk pixel aesthetic and an RPG skilltree so that's a little out of the norm. Worth playing? Don't ask me, I'm just the excerpt; click the dang link already.

Part Two of this season of 64 in 64, examining most (some?) of the N64's best and less best one hour (and change) at a time, continues its mission to try out every 3D platformer it has. This time it's Gex 3: We Didn't Even Give Dana a Script This Time, He Just Rattled Off Every Movie Quote He Could Think Of and Doraemon: Nobita to 3 Tsu no Seireiseki, the first of several JP-only Doraemon games.
