My Hero One’s Justice 2 (Xbox One) Review
While many licensed games are proving that high quality and satisfying fan service can both be achieved in the same production, this has yet to be the norm. This conclusion was made painfully obvious during my time with My Hero One’s Justice 2 on the Xbox One. All things considered, I am in the target audience for this title. I love the My Hero Academia anime and I consider it one of the most hear...[Read More]

DOOM Eternal Hands-On Preview – One Hell of a Ride!
During PAX East 2020, Jonathan White, Matt Kowalski, and I went to the Bethesda Game Days event that happened over two days next door to PAX. The one game all three of us were most excited to play was the upcoming DOOM Eternal. While there, I did also play the new content in Fallout 76, but I will talk about that in a later post. We each got hands-on time with Doom Eternal, leaving all three of us...[Read More]
Bayonetta 10 Year Anniversary (Xbox One) Review- Infinite Climax
If you told me 10 years ago that a game called Bayonetta would be in my top 10 games I’ve ever played list and top 5 musical soundtracks list, I would have called you a liar or a mad man. Now 10 years later, Bayonetta still holds a special place in my heart.
Vanquish 10th Anniversary (Xbox One) Review
Vanquish is one of those games that blended in next to its contemporaries, creating a passionate group of players that discovered it as a hidden gem of the era. At a glance, this power fantasy starring a rather plain armored super-soldier seems to be a typical third-person shooter with various guns and cover mechanics. What lies beneath is a complex web of systems that all aim to let players expre...[Read More]

Top Games of the Decade by Year
Wow, another decade has come and gone and along with it came lots of video games! We here at Marooner’s Rock clearly love video games, but it can be incredibly difficult to narrow down the top games of a single year, let alone an entire decade. So we made it slightly easier on ourselves by making a Top Games list where we all got a pick for each year. The result, I think, is a nice collectio...[Read More]
