Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Review (Xbox Series X)
A couple of years ago when Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was announced with James Mangold directing, it was tough not to think that Mangold had a large task ahead of him. Taking an iconic character and putting together a story that was worthy of the previous entries in the Indiana Jones saga probably came with an ark load of pressure. Satisfying a fanbase that felt scorned from the last fi...[Read More]
Fantasian Neo Dimension Review (PS5)
Have I missed RPGs over the years? Like, were there ever this many in a single year? I feel like 2024 has been the year of MMORPGs and turn-based RPGs. We have had a lot of them and reviewed most of them. Anyway, maybe I’m just getting old and don’t remember previous years like this. Maybe all those E3 trips had my brain store away a bevy of RPGs that I came in contact with. Who knows? Who cares? ...[Read More]
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes Review (PS5)
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes from develop Simogo has finally made it to the PlayStation 5. I really enjoyed the creepy Twin Peaks-esque experience on the Nintendo Switch when it released in May, and I’m still feeling the same way this time around. It has a lot of moving parts to it, a ton of puzzles, and just enough uncomfortableness to the story that even David Lynch would get goosebumps from the e...[Read More]
Blazing Saddles 4KUHD Review
My father introduced me to this film at a young age. It’s not appropriate at a young age. On so many levels it is not appropriate. As an adult? It has some very strong themes and points, and it is appropriate. While there is no doubt that Blazing Saddles from Warner Home Video probably couldn’t be made nowadays, its brilliance shines through the script which has so many different and relevant them...[Read More]
The Terminator 4KUHD Review
Back when I was just turning 10 years old, I was having nightmares about being chased by an unstoppable robot that was trying to ensure the end of the world was going to happen with a gigantic bang. Man, the Reagan years were something. I’m sure those dreams will be making a comeback in the next four years. Anyway! Warner Home Video has honored that robot-chasing-humans idea by releasing The Termi...[Read More]
North by Northwest 4KUHD Review
Hitchcock was the master of suspense, thriller, and horror back in the day. He used common themes to create cinematic masterpieces that redefined how movies were made. He also inserted himself in every single one of his films, which was a cool signature. Anyway, one of Hitchcock’s best films about a case of mistaken identity was North by Northwest, and Warner Home Video has decided to honor it wit...[Read More]

Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Review (Nintendo Switch)
I didn’t know what to make of this game when it dropped in my email. Part of me was intrigued, while the other part was skeptical of why anyone would want to play a police simulator. Regardless, here we are. Police Simulator: Patrol Officers for the Nintendo Switch from developer Aesir Interactive is an interesting game. While my expectations pointed towards a game that would be action-packed and ...[Read More]
Stray Review (Nintendo Switch)
Another year, another Stray drop on another system. Don’t worry, I’m not complaining. At any given point in life, when you can play a video game as a cat, then you should always play that video game. And even though I have played this on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, when the opportunity to play it again on the Nintendo Switch came up, I just couldn’t resist. Can you tell ...[Read More]
LEGO Horizon Adventures Review (PS5)
Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West are two unbelievably good games that brought amazing open-world adventure and a strong lead character to life. Both have been trendsetters for two generations of consoles with the good threat of a third on the…horizon. Puns aside, while we wait for the third to be developed, developers Studio Gobo and Guerrilla have stitched together a go-between game c...[Read More]

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake Review (PS5)
Part of me is praying that SEGA will wake up one day and get a bee in their bonnet to remake Phantasy Star I-IV. I will then know that it is end times and nothing in life could improve. Anyway, the dream lives on, so Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake must do. And don’t mistake that last sentence as disappointment, not in the least. The last few weeks that I have had the pleasure of playing DQIII HD-2D...[Read More]
