All reviewsCastlevania: Circle of the Moon2001
3 out of 5 starsCastlevania is hands down one of my favorite game series ever. As time goes by, I find myself constantly wanting to go back to these games, specifically the 2D entries, and I wanted to do this again here in the year 2026, chronicling my time along the way with reviews of each game I play. The goal is to play through all three of the GBA entries, followed by all three of the DS entries. Starting of course with the…
MindsEye2025
2 out of 5 starsThere’s something oddly appealing about playing a game in which the consensus is that it’s not very good. My main draw to MindsEye was admittedly this phenomenon. I bought a physical copy of the game months ago on sale, thinking to myself that maybe it’d be fun to experience one day. Well April 1st, 2026 was that day, and no, I wasn’t fooling myself. I really did decide to play through the whole game. Here’s how…
Rock Band 32010
5 out of 5 starsMusic video games, for me, have always been about experiencing music in new and interesting ways. The Rock Band franchise has allowed that possibility over the past several years. I can honestly attribute most of my more recent musical obsessions to the fine folks at Harmonix and the delightfully eclectic setlists that they’ve pieced together in their time. Rock Band 3 has again taken music gaming to a whole new…
Simulator of the century
2 out of 5 stars**Note: Please keep the following song on a loop through the duration of your reading. Thank you, and enjoy the review. Have you ever wondered about the specifics of the miracle called child birth? Have your school's health classes, or your very own--formerly trusted--parents been too embarrassed to properly educate you on this matter? You don't have to live in ignorance any longer! From Stegersaurus Games comes the…

In which I ramble incoherently about some games I played in 2025, both new and old.
Five Years
Aug 4, 2022
It'll be five years to the day on Sunday since I last posted a blog here on Giant Bomb. That's not to say I've left the site over this time; in fact I think I've kept up decently well with everything that's gone on with the site over the years, though admittedly with an ebb and flow of interest, for various reasons. When it came to the act of forming my thoughts on games into words, like I'd do...
A Tale of Two Walking Simulators
Aug 7, 2017
I think it’s fair to say that Gone Home was a bit of a revelation for me. Just in terms of game design, it’s perhaps mostly responsible for a clear pivoting point in my taste in games. Similar to the way Rock Band introduced me to a new genre in rhythm gaming and started a years-long obsession, I feel like my interest in games these days seems the strongest when I’m experiencing a concise and v...
Does Buying a PS4 Pro Make Me a PlayStation Professional?
Mar 16, 2017
What's up, guys? I've recently decided to pick up a PS4 Pro, and it's been a neat experience so far, so I thought I'd share. I started this console generation thinking I would be all PC all the time. Fast forward a couple years to 2015 when I decided to buy an Xbox One and was enveloped in that warm and fuzzy feeling of console comfort that I didn't know I was missing. Now, after another couple...
A Highly Artistic Account of Video Games (for the Non-Artistic)
Nov 10, 2016
Hi guys! I'm JJWeatherman and I (still) really like playing video games. Drawing, on the other hand, I haven't ever much cared for. Believe it or not I actually found a way to fail a freshman art class in high school. That said, anything's a lot more fun when there aren't letter grades and due dates attached to them. So I may not be a great artist, but deep down I truly believe that I am indeed...
Paul George has two first names. Also NBA 2K17 is here.
Sep 18, 2016
Well guys, it’s that time of year again. The new NBA 2K game is out(ish), and as one of the game franchises I tend to enjoy the most and put significant amounts of time into, I want to talk about it. As of Friday, anyone who decided to preorder the game has had access to it before this Tuesday’s official release date. The whole play before everyone else for preordering thing has always seemed a...
