It never occurred to me that people would make such a big deal out of a half naked genie, but I also didn’t know that people would end up watching Japanese horse racing more than most sports. People tend to gravitate towards characters and ideas if they give them something...
Very few arcade titles have a place in my heart like House of the Dead 2. While I’ve done my fair share of cabinets, only House of the Dead 2 got me to dump literally twenty dollars worth of quarters into it so I could play, from start to finish,...
Oceanhorn is one of those indie franchises you usually pay little attention to throughout the years, but you always become immediately interested in a new entry once one is announced. The reason is simple: despite its origins in the mobile gaming sphere, the Oceanhorn franchise has garnered a reputation for...
Welcome to what might just be the most ludicrous idea for a game I’ve played in a substantially long time: Date Everything. The name couldn’t have been more direct about what you do in this title. You date everything. And when they say everything, they mean EVERYTHING. This is a...
Iwakura Aria brings up one of the most perplexing questions that seems to plague humanity as a whole in recent memory: why do we try so hard to define what love is or isn’t? While we are leagues ahead of the binary, Puritanical view of affection and sexuality that strangled...
There are two great things about Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, especially if you’re a massive fan of the franchise. The first one is that this is a truly fantastic 2D platformer, possibly the best side-scrolling game in the entire franchise (and let’s face it, the first few NES Ninja Gaiden games...
When I first heard of Konami wanting to release Gradius Origins, a collection featuring a good chunk of the titles from its most famous shoot ’em up franchise, my initial thought was: haven’t they done that before? Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection, an already six year old compilation (my goodness, we’re...
I’ve been playing point-and-click adventures since the glory days of Sierra and LucasArts. Classics like the King’s Quest and Monkey Island series are among some of my favorites from the late 1980s to early 1990s, and will always hold a special place in my heart. That said, there has been a wonderful...
Edens Zero
Not all anime games I cover are based on stuff I have had any previous contact with, but I never see that as a bad thing. It’s always an opportunity to be introduced to a brand new IP, and who knows, I might even end up enjoying it. For instance,...
I’d like to preface this review by saying I did not play College Football 25. Hell, I’m not even a big college football fan. I enjoy the sport a lot, but I really only follow the NFL and play the Madden games. My first thought with seeing College Football 26...
Time Flies
According to scientists, there are some species of flies that only live for about 24 hours. Can you imagine having your entire life, your entire existence, summarised into one simple day? You’ll probably have time for just one meal, one egg laying session, you’ll barely leave the place you were...
Today, I’m going to review a brand new Mega Drive (or Genesis, for the heathens) game. It was developed with the 16-bit system’s limitations in mind, is a shoot ’em up like half of the library of any system from that era… but as of now, it’s only available on...
