I grew up in South Jersey, then migrated to Kentucky where I went to school at UK and recently graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Media Arts. I love all types of video games, especially RPGs and story-driven ones.

Dragon’s Dogma 2

Dragon’s Dogma 2 is comparable to a pistachio; it has a salty shell that’s tough to crack, but once you get through it, it’s worth the effort. The game has a lot to offer, but it takes some exploration to uncover everything. It presents stunning views of nature and grand castles that will leave you in awe. The combat and exploration are where the game truly shines. Fighting giant...[Read More]

Tomb Raider I–III Remastered Review

The original Tomb Raider trilogy is an iconic set of video games. If you were to write a book on video game history, you could not leave Tomb Raider and Lara Croft out of it. Before 1996, there were very few female protagonists in video games. Lara Croft’s character paved the way for strong female characters in gaming, demonstrating that women don’t always need to be saved like Princes...[Read More]

EA FC 24 Review

It’s that time of the year again. The leaves are changing, the weather is getting colder, and folks are busy cooking up some warm soups. Yes, indeed, it’s football season, but this review isn’t about Madden; it’s about EA FC 24, formerly known as FIFA. The name might be different, but when it comes to changes, that seems to be the most significant one.   EA FC comes wi...[Read More]

Baldur’s Gate Review (PS5)

About a month ago, Baldur’s Gate 3’s full release made its grand entrance into the gaming scene, but initially, it was only available on PC. The Xbox version hit a snag, experiencing a significant delay, while PlayStation gamers patiently awaited their turn on September 6th. But my eagerness got the best of me, and I decided to invest in Nvidia Geforce Now just to get my hands on this game. ...[Read More]

Immortals of Aveum (PS5) Review

Fast-paced action and flying colors. Is it Sonic the Hedgehog? No, it’s EA’s battlemage FPS, Immortals of Aveum. While Immortals falls flat in the story, it is a visual masterpiece. Vibrant colors and enticing environments are where it shines.   In the world of Aveum, you play Jak. A street rat with the ability to cast spells. Not just any spells, but all three colors of spells, making Jak a ...[Read More]

Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World Review

2D Platformers are refreshing in today’s gaming landscape, as the market is flooded with open-world games and first-person shooters. Most platformers often fall by the wayside as they don’t stand out to games like Celeste. Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World rather falls somewhere in between. It resonates to me in its Legend of Zelda-like puzzles but doesn’t come close in depth. Master of none, jack...[Read More]

Mass Effect Legendary Edition Review

The beloved space opera trilogy in video games is back in one cohesive fashion. Three top-tier role-playing games are all in one package, which gives you the best experience in which to play. When the games were originally released, you had to wait years for the next game but now you don’t have to wait and you can get fully acquainted with the franchise. Being able to play the games right after ea...[Read More]

Cyberpunk 2077 Review

Before Cyberpunk came out, people, myself included, were ready to call this the greatest game of all time. Since its release, it has become one of the most interesting cases in videogame history. You will see some people saying that this is the greatest game of all time, while on the other side you will see others saying this is a terrible game. There are a lot of good things that Cyberpunk does a...[Read More]

Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered Review

In the era of remakes and remasters, there are plenty of games we expected to be enhanced. Need For Speed Hot Pursuit being remastered was a pleasant surprise. You don’t see too many if any, racing games upgraded for the current generation. Nonetheless, Hot Pursuit is one in the franchise that I remember fondly from my Xbox 360 days. So I sat down with the motorsport game to see how it handles aft...[Read More]

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time Review

It’s About Time is not only the title of Crash Bandicoot 4, but it is how I have felt after waiting years for a sequel to Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped. The latest installment of Crash is a fantastic way to revive the series, although there are a large number of gimmicks that take away from the core game, which will be discussed in this review. Regardless of gimmicks, Toys For Bob has created a worthy...[Read More]

Windbound Review

The survival genre is one that has always interested me. I love the foraging and crafting aspects that are involved. Windbound offers a unique aspect to the survival genre, sailing. Using a boat in survival games like The Forest or Stranded Deep isn’t a foreign idea. Rather the act of crafting a ship that has balance and using the wind is something that I haven’t seen until recently with Windbound...[Read More]

Madden 21 Review

Many people talk ill of the Madden franchise. They say that since there is no competition for a licensed NFL game, it’s just an updated roster for $60. Madden 21 is not this. It offers plenty of new and/or features that would entice new players and call back older fans of the franchise. I can say that with some authority as I am an old fan of Madden. When I was a kid, I remember playing Madden’s a...[Read More]
