Hands-On With N1RV ANN-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action
When Sukeban Games launched their retro-styled bartending/visual novel VA-11 HALL-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action in 2016, it became an indie and critical darling.

Now Sukeban aims to catch lightning in a bottle for a second time with the 2020 launch of N1RV ANN-A.

Hands-On With The Caligula Effect: Overdose (PAX South)
When Bowling For Soup sang “High School Never Ends”, they didn’t mean it as an aspirational song. However, in The Caligula Effect Overdose, out now in the United States from NIS America, that’s exactly how a self-aware Virtuadoll interpreted paradise.
World of Horror – PAX South Hands-On
The Ysbryd booth at PAX South this year featured two games: YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG, and World of Horror. Obviously I didn’t need to see the YIIK demo, since I was playing through my review copy at the time, but World of Horror looked like nothing else on the show floor. “How scary can a black and white game be, especially one with an old-school point and click style UI?” The PR rep just smiled at...[Read More]

Nintendo Switch PAX South Hands-On Preview
I asked everyone in the queue line what they were running to, what they wanted to see first. The obvious answer was the Nintendo Switch, which is definitely what most were waiting patiently for. The same thing was true of most of the press at the show. It was more orderly, but both sides of the booth were packed with a line and I took the shorter route to try out multiple games over trying The Leg...[Read More]
HoloCube VR by Merge – PAX South Hands-On
I hadn’t done much during the designated press hour other than meet up with some friends, try to make a plan of attack, and raise some money with cookies. I had a lot to look forward to during PAX South and I was getting to start it off by playing with something that made me tilt my head and have no idea what to expect. Merge VR had sent me a short email about the HoloCube and the one picture ins...[Read More]

With PAX South being in full swing at the time, one of my many appointments was with the Lucid Sound team. Some of you reading may know that in the past we have done a review of the Lucid Sound LS30 Wireless Headset.
