I’ve grown to enjoy the story behind the Diablo franchise and how it can pull in newcomers and fans alike into the game. Diablo IV was first announced back during BlizzCon 2019 and many people showed excitement about the franchise’s continuation. For me, I skipped out on Diablo Immortals since Diablo IV was on my radar. The last Diablo game I played was Diablo III, which to this day I ...[Read More]
As the resident Diablo guy around here, I was actually just going to wait until release to play Diablo II Resurrected simply because I didn’t want to ruin it for myself. I knew I’d jump in and just keep playing once I started, but thankfully, the beta only gives you access to act 1 and 2, so it was decently easy to unplug after a few hours. Diablo II is one of my favorites. This is due...[Read More]
With Summer just a day away, many in the Northern Hemisphere look to escape their home prisons and unwind. 2020 has been a wild year so far.

Certain Affinity’s Crimson Alliance certainly attracts captivated audiences contentedly attacking creatures amok. By which I mean, it’s good. If you purchased or otherwise received all five of this year’s Summer of Arcade titles, you should know what Crimson Alliance is, as it was the free reward. If you did not, then this is your introduction: Crimson Alliance is a hack-and-slas...[Read More]
Bastion is the spiritual successor to ToeJam & Earl. Now, it’s never been advertised as such, and to my knowledge nobody else has made this connection (Google confirms this, which means you read it here first), but it is a statement that I am going to stand by and support with arguments. ARGUMENTS, I SAY! Bastion, developed by Supergiant Games and published by WB Games, is the first XBLA...[Read More]
Just a few months ago, I called the XBLA version of Torchlight the most fun I’d had gaming so far in 2011. Portal 2 dethroned it, and I’m afraid that this fall’s Neverwinter is going to bump it slightly more, but none of this changes the fact that Torchlight will still be one of my top 2011 games. At E3, I was privileged enough to sit down and play through one of the random event...[Read More]

Throw in a bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos and a giant cup of Dr. Pepper or Pepsi (none of that Coca-Cola crap, thank you very much) and I had myself one hell of a Friday night. Runic Games brought together the mad skillz of Travis Baldree (designer of Fat...[Read More]
