Parasite Eve This time of year, everyone has the same argument with the same people: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Sure, it takes place during Christmastime, and there is quite a lot of references to the holiday, but is that what makes it so? At the end of the day, it’s still an enjoyable, well-made film […] No responses 6 min read February 27, 2018
Gravity Rush Review Near the end of this Summer, some part of my brain broke and I convinced myself buying a PS Vita was a worthwhile endeavor. I’m not sure if it was worth it, but dammit I’ll get my money’s worth out of it, even if it kills me. I made sure to get one I could […] One response 6 min read January 22, 2018

Coaches? However I’m supposed to say your name, this article is for your eyes only. Also for the eyes of everyone else reading this article. I know this is outside the area of your expertise, but hey, Full Disclosure? I don’t care. Number 5 – Psycho Mantis has always been real […] No responses 10 min read December 12, 2017
Games Don’t Need To Be Shorter But they shouldn’t be longer either. What do you think when someone tells you a game is 100 hours long? Chances are you don’t get excited; I wouldn’t. Experience shows that a game that long is going to have lots of padding, and most of that time is spent unsatisfied. There’s a point in any […] 4 responses 6 min read December 3, 2017
Spooktober Bonus Article – Cut List I don’t have time to play so many games, I’m only one person. Maybe, since I’m a Games Journalist, I can review a game without completing it or knowing too much backstory about it. So here’s a few games which didn’t make the cut due to my inability to focus and play one game at […] No responses 9 min read October 30, 2017
Spooktober: Kid Dracula Kid Dracula is a Castlevania spinoff released in 1993 for the Gameboy. It’s a sequel/remake of an earlier, inferior Japan-only NES game. You play as Dracula’s son, on a quest to save the castle or something, the story was neither clear nor important. The game doesn’t really play similar to Castlevania as you might expect, […] No responses 4 min read October 26, 2017
Spooktober: F.E.A.R. F.E.A.R. is a linear first person shooter in the vein of Half-Life. Released in 2005 by Monolith Productions, it’s a fairly fun game that holds up in the graphics and gameplay departments. The visuals and 3D audio (look into installing those drivers) make the game extremely atmospheric with little detriment to gameplay. There’s 2 expansion […] No responses 12 min read October 22, 2017
May 2017 – Death and Rebirth This month in video games played with what few emotions I have left. Mostly contained in two, completely unrelated events, about the availability of two unique but flawed third person shooters which initially released exclusively on 7th gen consoles. I’m talking about Alan Wake and Vanquish. tl;dr: I recommend both of them, but they aren’t […] One response 5 min read May 29, 2017
The Tale of the Cracker Connoisseur Once upon a time there was a cracker connoisseur who was named William Henry York or something like that. He had eaten crackers all his life, and soon came to realize there was more to crackers than being simply a salty snack. Lately, he was in search of a more sophisticated cracker. He had always […] 6 responses 5 min read May 17, 2017
Chibi Robo – Spring Cleaning Apparently people like to clean in the springtime. I just like to play video games. Chibi-Robo is a game about cleaning, a game about cleaning with a toothbrush as a 2 inch tall robot. An already tedious task scaled to “fuck you” proportions. Still want to clean? Doesn’t matter, because your real task is to […] One response 6 min read May 1, 2017
The Far Cry 3 Template The Far Cry 3 Template is a basic plan to make an open world game, one which everyone will recall as fun, praising its gameplay, all without an inch of proper game design. This template existed before Ubisoft’s Pile Of Shit 3, in many different forms, from many different developers. I term it as such […] 3 responses 9 min read April 9, 2017
Thoughts on the Early Access Model Hey Remember Minecraft? Everyone remembers Minecraft. Kind of a weird game to talk about, since its fanbase, development timeline, popularity, and the gameplay itself are all either terrible or a preface for terrible things to come. Minecraft was probably the first popular early access game. Nobody really thinks of it this way, since it existed […] No responses 4 min read April 5, 2017
