All reviewsChibi-Robo!2005
4.5 out of 5 starsNote: This review is based on the Nintendo Switch Online Gamecube version of the game Chibi-Robo was the kind of game it was far too easy for me to ignore in high school, and even into early-college. Bright, colorful, dialog that was communicated through bleeps and bloops rather than "real" language, no real fail state and very few restrictions on how long you could play the game, it felt like the kind of thing my…
Rogue Galaxy2005
4 out of 5 stars"Rogue Galaxy" is a game I first heard about via YoVideogames ranking of PS2 games. It was a footnote in that lengthy video, but the way they talked about it made it sound like something I could absolutely see myself getting into. And it was a time, earlier this very year, when I needed something to distract me, but not something I could necessarily invest a lot of emotional energy into. What I got was sort of a…
Terminator 2D: No Fate2025
4 out of 5 starsTerminator is one of those 80s/90s franchises that seems like it shouldn't be difficult to get right. But just ask anyone who's tried to make any movie past the second one, or any videogame at all, just how difficult that can be. Teyon's recent sleeper-hit "Terminator: Resistance" smashed onto the scene with throwback gameplay that threw some off, but it captured the desperation of the Future War setting, and the…
Demonschool2024
4.7 out of 5 starsI first heard about "Demonschool" in Panda's GOTY list on this very website, and they described it as, and I'm paraphrasing, "Into the Breach meets Persona," and I didn't even have to look up anything else about it, I bought that game instantly. And I'm so glad I did, because if anything, they undersold what the game is really about. It takes the basic setting and setup of most Persona games: a collection of young…

All articlesWell, You Crazy Bastards Took the Site Back. Guess I'll Keep Going. RIP Peter David. Comics Legend, Underrated Novelist.
Jun 1, 2025
This last week we had to say goodbye to a legend that many of you may have never heard of. But if you're a fan of comics, you've seen his ludicrously generic name. In a more just world where names were marketing, he would have been known as Amadeus David Rourke. Instead, he was Peter David. My extended thoughts here , check out my other work. We live on clicks in Hellworld and I need to buy mor...
I Have a Pathological Inability to Advertise Myself
Dec 12, 2024
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a writer. I was born with ADHD and generalized anxiety, and being a writer seemed like the best, coolest, most fun way to communicate my ideas the way I wanted, while avoiding the pitfalls of the kind of fame I wasn't really looking for. I found with my sardonic, deeply American-born-Jew-style humor, I was frequently misunderstood and my tone c...
"The Tick" is the Antivenom to Marvel's Toothlessness and DC's Grimdarkness
Aug 29, 2017
I didn't read a single comic that starred The Tick until I was in college in the mid-2000s. I watched the cartoon in the '90s, but since it was a Fox Kids cartoon, I had no notion of what the original author (Ben Edlund) had in mind for the series, that was meant to parody comics at the time. Whether it be a gun-mad Punisher joke of a hero, of which the Tick himself quips, "I think superheroes...
Because We Must, Let's Talk About Bowie
Jan 12, 2016
Yesterday I, and many the world over, awoke to what was possibly the most shocking news I could imagine: David Bowie had died. Apparently he'd been diagnosed with liver cancer 18 months ago and simply hadn't gone public with it, but going back and watching the video for Lazarus, it's clear that he knew his days were numbered and the number was getting awfully low. Two things struck me about thi...
Batman: Arkham Knight and the Importance of Audio Variety
Jul 25, 2015
Something I haven't seen/heard brought up at ALL in the varied and interesting discussion about this game is something very, very subtle: there is a metric TON of audio/dialog clips that can be WILDLY different depending on when you hear them. Just the ambient dialog around the police station can change depending on where you are in the game, but also Riddler's taunts and Batman's comments base...
Blogging: It's How the Coooool Kids Cope With Tragedy
Jul 8, 2013
We all heard the news, and if you haven't, I'll be brief: Giant Bomb lost founding member and all-around amazing duder Ryan Davis. I don't have a lot to add to the discussion, others who knew him better are doing a FAR better job, but I do have two very specific, very personal memories from what were two of the happiest months of my life as a Whiskey Media intern: Look at him...knowing so much...
