All reviewsDisney's 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue2000
2 out of 5 stars102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue is a platformer for the PS1 and Dreamcast that plays loosely like a mix of Spyro the Dragon and Gex (in that it's supposed to be like Spyro but Crystal Dynamics made it and its camera and controls kind of suck). Cruella DeVille has gotten into the business of making toys for some reason, but they are so crappy that nobody wants to buy them. In her anger she kidnaps all but two…
Panzer Dragoon Saga1998
2 out of 5 starsI didn’t love Panzer Dragoon Saga t he way Sega fans seem to, and by the third disc (of four), I was on the verge of hating it. In 1998, having 10-minute FMVs at the beginning and end of every disc must have felt groundbreaking. Around 70% of all dialogue is voice-acted, with solid (Japanese) performances and motion-captured animations. But in practice, it means spending long stretches watching the game rather than…
Quest 641998
3 out of 5 starsWhen I was a child I had a Nintendo 64 and an allowance. When that allowance reached the price of a brand new Nintendo 64 game I would become so excited that I had to buy one straight away. The problem inherent to this is that the Nintendo 64 had no games to actually buy. When I found myself at the store with money in hand and forced to choose between the likes of Iggy's Wreckin' Balls and Bio F.R.E.A.K.S., I opted…
Blue Reflection2017
3 out of 5 starsBlue Reflection is like Persona if it was made by a team that absolutely lacked the means to make a Persona game. You play as Hinako, a high school girl who moonlights as a Sailor Moon-esque magical girl. As a magical girl, she is tasked with diving into a physical manifestation of the common consciousness (a realm known as 'The Common') in order to read the hearts of her classmates and use her powers of empathy to…

All articlesWhy I Like Sonic 2006
Sep 12, 2017
Note: This essay was written on a dare. Despite this, my feelings on the matter are genuine. There are two fronts on which Sonic 2006 succeeds in spite of itself. One is cultural, and the other is innate. The cultural aspect is probably easier to describe so I will begin there. The documentary “The Best Worst Movie” tells of a failed horror movie from 1990 called Troll 2. Troll 2 was so incompe...
Last night I finished Final Fantasy VII for the first time
Oct 8, 2016
I never played Final Fantasy 7 until now. I had given it a try here and there over the years, never making it more than 20 minutes in. Something about the hype surrounding it always left a bad taste in my mouth, as though it existed in order to be a bunch of 14 year olds' emotional and sexual awakening back in the late-1990s and has been coasting on that reputation ever since. The 'extended uni...
