MLB The Show 25 Review (PS5)

As the college and professional basketball seasons begin wrapping, and the latter won’t be done until what feels like 2026, the need for warm spring weather and good baseball is just kicking in. While my Cincinnati Reds haven’t been anything since the Ken Griffey, Jr. days, and really after 1990’s championship run, it’s still fun to see baseball return every year. And with the real game comes the ...[Read More]

Rogue Piñatas: VRmageddon Review (Meta Quest)

This might have been the best $24.99 game I’ve purchased on the Meta Quest not called Beat Saber. Not a joke. Rogue Piñatas: VRmageddon from developer Nerd Ninjas is an interesting virtual reality experience. The devs took the Call of Duty Zombies blueprint and replaced all the scary places and undead peeps with something far more terrifying – colorful environments and vicious piñatas. No, I’m not...[Read More]

Reignbreaker Review (PC)

There’s nothing quite like an action rogue-lite to get the blood moving. Point and case, Hades was a masterpiece when it first hit, and it still is to this day. After playing it repeatedly, I understood the fascination with going through randomly generated worlds, building your character up, and doing your best to find the perfect combination of buffs and weaponry to make it through. It’s a simple...[Read More]

Merchants of Rosewall Review (PC)

A year or so ago, I was privy to a preview of Merchants of Rosewall from developer Big Blue Sky Games. The game was ambitious with different ways the player could build out and run a merchant shop. The backdrop for the game was fascinating, as it went with a more fantasy world, akin to something you would find in Dungeons & Dragons, and was mainly driven by crafting and selling. It was not a b...[Read More]

PlayStation 5 Pro Review

There is nothing quite like a mid-generation refresh for a console manufacturer. While I do miss the old days when companies would simply change a system’s color (the Game Boy lived off this in the 90s) and then make it smaller (looking at you, PlayStation 2 Slim), if anything adds longevity to a console generation’s life, then that is a healthy take from the industry. That refresh isn’t a new con...[Read More]

Carmen Sandiego Review (PS5)

When I was in 10th grade, my life was full of misery thanks to a nasty divorce, and I desperately needed something every morning to take my mind off my life. My high school had just the remedy with computer games. While Bryan Station High School in Lexington, Kentucky couldn’t afford more than a room full of 286 machines, which ran dual-disk drives, one for the operating system and one for the sof...[Read More]

Knights in Tight Spaces Review (PC)

A few turn-based card games have captured my attention and kept it. Inscryption was one of these games, as the terror and strategy made for a good time. Another game was Hearthstone for ‘don’t need to tell you’ reasons. You can now put Knights in Tight Spaces on that list. I just kicked my Balatro addiction, I certainly didn’t need a new one. BUT HERE WE ARE. Knights in Tight Spaces from developer...[Read More]

Metal Suits: Counter Attack Review (PC)

I love ridiculous plots and good gameplay. When you can create that type of duo for a game, then you’re in for a treat. And this game, dear readers, is a treat. Metal Suits: Counter Attack from developer Eggtart is a side-scrolling, 2D platformer that is packed with action and all of it is driven by a variety of suits. The game is fast, furious, and a low-grade difficulty Mega Man. Packed with int...[Read More]

PGA Tour 2K25 Review (PS5)

I do believe that 2K Games has reached a point where they have figured out how best to make the PGA games. My opinion over the years has been that they were struggling to make golf exciting while balancing out the changing console landscape and what visually that meant for future games in the series. I was critical of the game the last time out, and I was expecting more of the same this year. As m...[Read More]
