Today is a special day. My backlog has finally brought me to a game that is nothing short of legendary. I’m talking about Silent Hill 2. As most of my readers will know, the Silent Hill series is held in high regard among gamers. But this particular chapter in the series is often considered to be one of the greatest...
As most of my long-time readers know, I tend to handle my game reviews using a two-pronged approach. First, I tackle games by generation. But naturally, thereโs always some games that fly under my radar the first time around. So, aside from my backlog reviews, I also have a โspecial projectโ on the side. The focus of these special reviews...
It feels like the release of Endwalker was just yesterday. But in reality, it’s been several months since FFXIV’s latest expansion. And as usual SE has been busy working on new content for fans to enjoy. Now, if you’ve been paying attention to everything going on in the world of Final Fantasy XIV, you might be wondering what new...
Wow. It’s been almost eight years since I played and reviewed the original Metal Gear Solid. I’ve accomplished quite a bit in terms of my backlog in those eight years. But still, it’s much too long of a gap if you ask me. Regardless, I’m pleased to announce that I’ve finally had the chance to sit down and experience the...
It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost three years since I reviewed the original Phantasy Star. Right around the time for that review, the game was re-released under the Sega Ages banner for the Nintendo Switch. This re-release featured an enhanced version of the original game with a few quality-of-life updates included. I was quite impressed with the treatment...
Valentine’s Day is almost here and that means it is time for me to review another game from my Hall of Shame list. You see, my friends and I have a little contest going. Every time there is a Steam sale, we find a cheap (and often lewd) game to buy for each other. As a result of this tradition,...
It’s here! The Final Fantasy XIV expansion that brings an end to the game’s ten-plus year-long storyline – Endwalker. This expansion brings FFXIV up to version 6.0, and as mentioned earlier, finally brings an end the Hydaelyn/Zodiark story-arc. This add-on sees the level cap raised to 90 and includes two new playable jobs; Sage and Reaper. As usual with any...
Today, I’m going to share my thoughts on Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. But, let me start this review with a statement. No. The recent release of the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy: The Definitive Edition was not a factor in how long it took me to finish my playthrough for this game. In fact, by the time GTA Trilogy hit...
Halloween is almost here! You know what that means, it’s time to review a horror game! Deciding which game to play through this time was no easy task. Looking through my backlog, there were a number of great spooky titles released for the PS2/GameCube/Xbox platforms. But in the end, I decided to go down some familiar territory and stick with...
Sometimes it’s always nice to revisit the classics. The last time I talked about the original Quake was back in 2013. Quake is one of those games that I keep coming back to over the years. Yes, it shows its age when put up against many modern titles. Yet, it still manages to maintain a persistent charm. Recently, Bethesda Softworks...
