Fighting games. A genre that just never goes out of style. Over the years I’ve covered a number of classic brawler titles. Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Dead or Alive, and of course, Tekken. It’s been well over a year since I posted my review for Tekken 3 (a game that actually earned a perfect score from me). Even though I...
It’s time to get serious! My recent review of Battlefield 1942 really had me itching for some more first-person action. So after combing through my backlog I came across the perfect title; Serious Sam – The First Encounter. This is a game that’s been sitting in my Steam library since 2013. I think it’s beyond time for me to blow...
I started my RPG catch-up project a little over a year ago. In that time, I’ve covered a number of retro RPG titles. One of the highlights of this project so far were my reviews of the Bard’s Tale Trilogy. As someone who grew up playing the Wizardry franchise, Bard’s Tale was an absolute blast from the past. It only...
This is a review that I’ve been wanting to write for a long time. I started this website nine years ago and over the course of that time I’ve discussed a lot of games. It’s no secret that RPGs are one of my biggest gaming passions. This may surprise many of you, but I love first person shooters just as...
Finally! After what seems like an eternity, I am here to deliver my review of Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation. First off, I want to take a moment to apologize for the length of time it took me to post this review. This game ended up being quite a bit longer than I anticipated. I was expecting it...
No, you didn’t read the title wrong. I’m actually reviewing Metroid Fusion! How long has it been since I last discussed a game in the Metroid series? Can you believe it has been eight years since I posted my review for the legendary Super Metroid?! That’s certainly a long time, but it’s not that I’m lazy. As you know, I...
Valentine’s Day is almost here! That means it’s time for another “questionable” game review… Last year, I turned up the heat with a (somewhat belated) review of Waifu Uncovered. But, this year I’m right on time with my thoughts on the Xbox classic; Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball! As you may have guessed by the title, this is not...
Several months ago, I shared my thoughts on a game compilation called Dead or Alive Ultimate. This Xbox-exclusive release collected the first two games in the Dead or Alive series (a franchise originally popular on the Sony Playstation) and made them available on an entirely new system. But, even though this collection contained the first two entries in the series...
Wow! It’s been over a month since my last game review and what a month it’s been! Aside from the normal craziness that comes with the Christmas season, here in the US we’ve also been dealing with the aftermath of the presidential election as well as a rise in pandemic cases. As a result, with the exception of going to...
Today, I’m going to share my thoughts on a retro RPG classic, Dragon Quest II. Back in the spring, I talked about the first game in this iconic series. If you’re not familiar with these games, I would urge you to check out that review before reading any further. Much of what I’m going to be discussing in this post...
