I feel like I need to start this review by stating that I do not like horror games. Why? First of all, they are scary, second of all, they scare me, and therefore, there does not need to be a third of all. Had I known that this was a...
WRC 9
I was positively surprised with last year’s WRC 8, as you may recall. The franchise had never been that impressive up to that point, being largely considered an inferior competitor when compared to the likes of Codemasters’ Dirt series, but WRC 8 was a turning point. Kylotonn took their time,...
Is it wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon? Well, why not ask Bell, the protagonist, and one of the main characters in the anime and new game, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Infinite Combate. From this point forward, for the sake...
Anime games are EVERYWHERE this month. It’s the perfect time to be a weeb, with the likes of Captain Tsubasa and Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon? both getting new games. One that’s not based on an actual anime, though (and maybe should be), is Death...
Nostalgia can be a very potent emotion. Many times we hold a game on a pedestal because of the fond memories we have of playing as a child. Or perhaps we treasure the overall experience of playing certain games with friends. It’s this emotion that drives so many publishers to...
Total War meets turn-based meets vampires. That’s the bold claim Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars sold itself on. As someone who appreciates bold claims in a genre that is so often stagnate, I was intrigued. Total War is my favorite strategy franchise, I love a good turn-based game, and vampires are...
When I first saw the announcement for Windbound, it immediately reminded me of a mix of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Windwaker. Being a massive fan of the Zelda games, I was really intrigued by what I saw. Fortunately, Windbound is not a carbon copy of...
While I enjoyed Wasteland 2, it’s an inherently flawed game. It’s designed as a fun blast to the past, which is both it’s greatest strength and weakness. Much like fellow early Kickstarter project Pillars of Eternity, it’s more concerned with recreating the past than moving towards the future. It was...
Given the juggernaut success that is the Pokémon franchise, you would far more developers would try to create their own knockoff to try to capitalize on Pikachu’s success. Sure, we’ve had games like Monster Rancher and the Digimon Story franchise. However, they’ve done a pretty good job at trying to...
When I first read about Marvelous and XSEED’s Kandagawa Jet Girls game, I shivered. The reason was simple, this game was created by the same people behind the Senran Kagura titles. I’ve had a brief experience with this franchise and oh boy I wish I hadn’t. Both games I played,...
With the exception of the very niche (and very underwhelming) Tour de France games, and the copious hours spent burning CJ’s calories in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, I don’t think I can remember of any other cycling game being released over the past two decades or so. That changed...
Samurai Jack is one of those shows that was destined to become a cult classic the second the pilot episode was aired. It was completely different from anything else being showcased on Cartoon Network at the time. It featured a distinct art style, a big emphasis on stylish cuts, and...
