All reviewsInfernax2022
5 out of 5 starsInfernax is a retro-inspired, 8-bit, side-scrolling action platformer. I’ll throw the phrase Metroidvania out there because it includes those elements, but the word on the internet is that this is the version of Castlevania II Simon’s Quest should have been, with a dash of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link . Personally, I’ve never played any of those old games. I started with a Super Nintendo (SNES) and those games…
Gungrave2002
2 out of 5 starsGungrave is a video game I’ve always wanted to play; not because I heard it was a must-play game but because the Gungrave anime is one of my all-time favorites. It’s been years since I’ve watched the Gungrave anime, so I figured it would be fun to play the games before jumping back into the show. Published by Sega , developed by Red Entertainment , and created by Yashuhiro Nightow , the creator of Trigun, Gungrave…
Genshin Impact2020
5 out of 5 starsIf previously wrote Genshin Impact off as anime Breath of the Wild ; I’m here to tell you to take another look. I’ve spent the last 30 days playing 2 accounts; my main PS4 account, where I spent some money and dabbled a bit with re-rolling characters on PC. I’m addicted & I have concluded that… Yes, you should play Genshin Impact! Why is this free-to-play game a gem? Let’s get into it. So what exactly is this game?…
The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan2019
3 out of 5 starsMy first video game of 2020! Just a few hours ago I saw the ending of Man of Medan, the first game in The Dark Pictures Anthology. Choices (Yup) I played with my girlfriend in what I guess we will call “boyfriend mode” where I control the game and the girlfriend calls out the decisions. (Man of Medan actually has couch co-op and online co-op options. With the latter, you can give a friend a free code to play with…

Mar 23, 2022
Tunic Is So Much More Than a Zelda Clone Tunic is an Isometric Action-Adventure game that is clearly inspired by old-school Zelda games; the main character, a fox, is donning his best Link cosplay, you wake up and must find a weapon and shield, and solve a fair amount of environmental puzzles. As someone who recently beat their first Zelda game, ever; the Switch remake of The Legend of Zelda: L...
The Elden Ring Diaries | Part 2
Mar 21, 2022
Well, it’s been almost 2 weeks, and a lot has changed from my initial Elden Ring experience. I’m now 35 hours in at level 58, and boy, this really is the game that keeps on giving! I’ve expanded my map quite a bit and have even defeated not one but two ‘big bads’; Godrick the grafted and Rennala Queen of the Full Moon. Elden Ring Diaries Part 2 Moonveil Katana Experience Yes, I am now a Moonvei...
The Elden Ring Diaries | Part 1
Mar 3, 2022
I didn’t have much hype for Elden Ring until a few weeks ago when I finally managed to grab a PlayStation 5 and a copy of the Demon’s Souls remake. Demon’s Souls was my introduction to the From Software Soulsborne experience back on PS3, and have played every game since (I hated Sekiro : Shadows Die Twice ). I was casually playing Demon’s Souls here and there (as casually as you can play a Soul...

Viewtiful Joe Review | A PS2 & GameCube Forgotten Gem
Sep 17, 2021
Viewtiful Joe is a beat ’em up platformer from Capcom . This video game was released for Nintendo GameCube in 2003 and PlayStation 2 in 2004. Viewtiful Joe has become a hidden gem because Capcom has forgotten about it! Forgotten gem is maybe the better phrase to call it as no HD Remaster or Remake has ever been released. I became reintroduced to Viewtiful Joe when I recently went through a retr...
What's The Deal With Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance?
Jun 25, 2021
As Jerry Seinfeld once said — “What’s the deal with Dark Alliance?” I wanted to like Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance , I really did. R.A. Salvatore’s Drizzt Do’Urden, Forgotten Realms novels were the vehicle that got me obsessed with the fantasy genre. I’ve read the Dark Elf Trilogy three times and listened to the audiobook versions twice. I’ve read through the Hunter’s Blades Trilogy, (altho...
