Arcade Paradise Hands-on Preview PAX East 2022
When you think of a cute sim game, what do you think of? Most gamers will typically name off at least one Nintendo title in their top 10 cutest games list. Games such as Animal Crossing, or other titles such as Slime Rancher. These cute franchises have excelled due to cute characters but also addicting gameplay elements. Where some games thrive in one area, they fall short in others. Sadly, this i...[Read More]
PAX East 2022 Hands-on with The Forest Cathedral
We may be entering the age of spaceflights, artificial intelligence, and augmenting the human body with cybernetic parts, but we cannot escape a fundamental rule. Humans are part of nature.

Diablo II: Resurrected (Xbox Series X) Beta Impressions
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]
Manifold Garden (PS5) Hands-On Preview
Last year, Independent developer William Chyr released Manifold Garden to consoles.
