Rockstar is doing just that with a sequel to one of the best games they’ve ever made. After subtlety changing their twitter background, the news is finally out there and visually the game looks great in what was shown. Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming in Fall 2017 for the PS4 and Xbox One and it will include vibrant environments and a dynamic online mode, but unfortunately, that’s about...[Read More]
Back when Dark Souls 3 released it completely rooted itself into my very being. I was constantly thinking throughout my daily routine of different ways to approach bosses or shaking with delight at the possibility of new things to discover.

What it was a catchy line in the song? Anyways what a reveal! Our guesses that the console is indeed a portable hybrid were correct.

In fact, I was skeptical the console would even reach its ...[Read More]
People who know me already know that I’m a huge anime dork. From the narrative driven Full Metal Alchemist to the ridiculous allegory that is Neon Genesis Evangelion, there are few series I haven’t at least seen a few episodes of. Let’s just say I keep a regular subscription to Crunchyroll. Overall, animation quality is a huge factor to me when it comes to me really liking a seri...[Read More]

Link’s Awakening was one of the more unique Zelda games, putting the franchise in the hands of Capcom in hopes to bring the adventure to the Gameboy. Their success enabled Capcom to ...[Read More]
The retro gaming scene has always been interesting, but over the past five years or so, the interest has seemed to have exploded. This in part, I assume, comes from coverage from dedicated journalists and content creators like Pat the NES Punk and the Angry Video Game Nerd. Oddly enough, advances in how retro games are played on things like re-writable cartridges or clone consoles have expanded th...[Read More]
Call of Duty is a gaming phenomenon, love it or hate it. It is a game style that pretty much perfected the controls of the first person shooter, using the left trigger to aim down sights which created a whole new way to take on enemies. Snapping from target to target feels great and has for many years and if it wasn’t for Call of Duty 2 perfecting this, many games may not have chosen to go with th...[Read More]
