Super Mutant Alien Assault (Switch) Review
Aliens have arrived and successfully destroyed the entire planet! Whatever their reasons, whether it be jealousy, competition, or anger management an entire alien armada has successfully decimated the planet. Fortunately, there was a well-funded, established back up plan. Three mammoth capital ships quietly escaped the destruction of Earth, carrying human survivors en route to a new home in the de...[Read More]
Call of Duty Modern Warfare (Xbox One) Review
When I first heard that a new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was going to be released in 2019 I was skeptical. For the last eight years, Call of Duty has seemed like a ghost compared to its glory days. If we were to pinpoint the era where the franchise started to go downhill, some would say around the time of Modern Warfare 3, Black Ops 2, or Ghosts. It has been eight years since the release of Mode...[Read More]
Daemon X Machina (Switch) Review
The moon has fallen and a poisonous substance, Femto, has swept across the Earth. Humanity survives but struggles to take back the planet. Rogue AI and machines threaten humanity’s existence. To fight this new menace, humans became more than human. From MARVELOUS! game studios and designer Shōji Kawamori comes Daemon X Machina, a Nintendo Switch exclusive and new IP for the console. Followin...[Read More]
Subdivision Infinity DX (PS4) Review
Space may be the final frontier for science and exploration, but it is also the final battleground that humanity has to fight. When a sinister force looks to exploit a dangerous enemy source and turn it into a weapon, only one pilot, his co-pilot, and his robot A.I companion have what it takes to strike back. This is Subdivison Infinity DX from Blowfish Studios and MistFly Games, a spaceship comba...[Read More]
Blair Witch (PC) Review
Teetering on the edge of horror brilliance, Bloober Team has consistently missed the mark for me. Even after a frustrating pass through Layers of Fear 2 on the Xbox One, I was oddly eager to see what that team could do with something like the Blair Witch property. This release may have some hangups technically, but this is a step in the right direction.
Bulletstorm – Duke of Switch Edition Review
Looking back on it, 2011 was an amazing year for gaming! The Mortal Kombat reboot, Portal 2, Skyrim, Rayman Origins, the list goes on and on. There were so many grade A titles being released it’s not surprising that some may have been missed. One of those games for me was Bulletstorm. People Can Fly’s humorous take on the sci-fi FPS genre always interested me. I’m honestly not sure how it slipped ...[Read More]
Promare Review – Fighting Fire with a Burning Spirit
Some of the most memorable, emotionally charged scenes in anime have come from Studio Trigger. Kamina’s boisterous and ridiculous speeches are enough to give anyone a kick in the pants to do something great and strive for a better tomorrow. Ryuko’s fierce struggle to overcome Satsuki created one of the best rivalries, contrasted by some of the funniest and most over-the-top situations imaginable f...[Read More]
Professor Lupo and His Horrible Pets (PC) Review
Ah, puzzle games, where the line between “I need a MENSA member to explain this to me” and “This is a fun challenge” is razor thin. Although a good story always helps. Professor Lupo and His Horrible Pets aims to put itself in the canon of memorable puzzlers with a charming graphics style, interesting story, and memorable puzzles.
Control (PS4) Review
I’m typically a sucker for a game with a great story, and Remedy Entertainment is a company that never ceases to deliver when it comes to making great games with deep atmospheres and compelling stories. Alan Wake was a strong entry for the studio, while Quantum Break is possibly the best TV show I’ve ever seen. When I heard that Remedy was planning to do a Twin Peaks inspired thriller ...[Read More]
Remnant: From the Ashes (PC) Review
The popularity of games centered around overcoming extreme difficulty has surged tremendously in the last decade in the wake of the extremely well-received From Software’s Dark Souls, and later titles Bloodborne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice to the point that other games that strive for this challenging, combat driven experience are often called “souls-like” or “soulsborne” games. One of the thing...[Read More]
Senran Kagura: Peach Ball (Switch) Review
I’ve always heard of the Senran Kagura series, but never took the time to sit down and play one of the games. I’ve seen the cover art for the games, but never really any gameplay. Like most, I had my opinions on the series. That is not to say they were negative, they were not in the slightest bit, merely just a series I never played.
GAEMS Guardian XP Pro Review
It’s no secret that I am a massive tech junkie. I have to check out the new tech, gadgets, or phones when they come out. I am also a home host. I run a monthly Fight Nights at my house where friends come over and we play fighting games on various systems. Even before getting the chance to review the Guardian XP Pro Personal Gaming Environment, GAEMS already had a huge presence in my house. Every F...[Read More]
