Quality Time with Square Enix at PAX East 2017
Ever since that faithful day in Elementary School, when my teacher gave us a glimpse of her obsession with a game called Final Fantasy VII, I’ve been a huge fan of Square Enix. I started with the PSOne classics, backtracking to the older releases and their remasters to the point that I quickly saw the series as a timeless collection...[Read More]
Pato Box combines Punch Out with Mad World
While I was at PAX it was easy to get distracted due to the sheer amount of sensory overload. From the masses of people shuffling about in a current of sorts throughout the expo hall to the tall statues and displays that dominated the scene, there is just so much going on. While tracking down a particular booth, the crowd somehow coaxed m...[Read More]
Quake Champions: PAX East 2017 Hands On Preview With New Character Slash!
Some of the earliest first person shooters, and even games as a whole, I remember playing in my youth were Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Quake. Ever since Bethesda has taken over the old iD Software licenses, they’ve been slowly bringing the classics into the modern era with Wolfenstein: The New Order and DOOM. Now, it’s Quake’s turn with Qua...[Read More]
Spread of Impressive Titles from Merge Games at PAX East
One of the areas of the gaming world I am most interested in is the preservation of video game history. This leads me to pursue physical copies of games that did not receive the traditional retail treatment, which is what initially drew me to scheduling a meeting with Merge Games. Merge Games are probably most known for taking some of the...[Read More]

Snake Pass – BEING the Snake During a Hands-On Preview at PAX East
A few weeks back, I covered the announcement of Snake Pass coming to Switch. Even then, I could tell that this would be a game right up my alley, so I jumped at the chance for a demo at PAX East. For this demo, I played the Nintendo Switch version using the Joy-Con Grip controller, while others played the other platforms around me. Sittin...[Read More]

The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor Announced
One of my favorite games from last year is getting a slick updated version for Consoles. That’s right, The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor will be coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 later this year. No official date has been announced, but some details have been slipped to us by the lovely folks over at Puuba.
Sumo Digital’s Snake Pass Let’s Players be a Snake
Back on the N64 and PSOne, there was a trend in the 3D platforming genre. Oftentimes players had to collect all sorts of trinkets in order to progress, with levels having multiple tiers of things to grab while exploring. A great example of this is Banjo Kazooie, a game that can only be progressed by getting so many Jiggies. Spyro the Drag...[Read More]
