Gundam Evolution – Season Four – Preview
Gundam has been around forever. When mechs and anime were big time, before springy pirates and huge titans, Gundam appeared and showed the world that there is a hefty amount of story to tell, as well as flashy mechs to compliment. There is a reason it has survived so long. People love it. To boot, there have also been dozens of games put out with the Gundam name, even stretching as far as the 1990...[Read More]
MLB The Show 23 Review
With the annual Kentucky Wildcats flub in the NCAA tourney, another MLB season is ushered in with the latest release of MLB The Show. As perfect as the baseball series has been over the years, not a heckuva lot has changed with the structure of the game. It seems a bit more playful with its improved gameplay, customizable in its settings, and overall, just feels like it welcomes any type of gamer ...[Read More]
Road 96: Mile 0 Review
There’s nothing like a good prequel to set things straight. Road 96 came out a while ago and brought some interesting, yet relevant content to the gaming world. It presented a balanced dose of serious political conflict with budding friendships and branching choices. Escaping a past to an uncertain future was also thick in its narrative. And eerily enough, the political conflict and manipulation w...[Read More]
Kingdom Rush: Frontiers Review
In January, I dove into Kingdom Rush. While the game was originally built from a flash platform, and eventually made it to mobile starting with the iPad in 2011, that didn’t prevent a good translation of it from appearing on the Xbox Series X some 10-plus years later. And while the concept has aged a bit, I found it to be quite addictive. The game was easy to play, easy to enjoy, and easy to put d...[Read More]
Before Your Eyes Review (PSVR 2)
Going into my latest adventure on the PSVR 2, I had no idea what to expect with Before Your Eyes</em>. Would it be a first-person shooter? Would it be an adventure game? What is Before Your Eyes? You should know that it’s a visual novel. And it isn’t just any novel, it’s an emotional journey through the eyes of a person who has passed on and the judgment that awaits them in the afterlife. Ge...[Read More]
PlayStationVR 2 Review
For years, the PlayStationVR unit was always a comfortable third behind the likes of the HTC Vive and the Oculus Rift (now Meta Quest). Unlike the other two headsets, which cost an arm and a leg at the time to run a virtual reality experience (HTC was $799 starting, Oculus was $599 + a computer system with a capable GPU – you’re sitting around $2k-3k with either), all you needed for the PSVR...[Read More]
Storyteller Review
I gripe about the lack of three-act narratives and brag about how easy stories can be if you just spend enough time developing them. A good chunk of filmmakers don’t these days, which generally equals out to a crappy movie (looking at you Venom). Anyway, if you have read any of my movie reviews, you know how passionate I am about storytelling in general. The story is the essence of an entire film...[Read More]
Destiny 2: Lightfall Review
I remember watching the Star Wars – The Phantom Menace trailer at the end of my college career. I thought to myself, “It’s back! We’re going to see more Star Wars! And it’s going to be the best ever because it’s about Anakin’s journey to the dark side!” Then it wasn’t the best ever. Then the Star Wars – Attack of the Clones trailer came out and I thought that it was going to be fantast...[Read More]
Veiled Experts Hands-on Preview
From time to time, Digitalchumps gets access to hands-on sessions with upcoming games. This time around, we were privy to a hands-on preview of Veiled Experts from Nexon and Nexon Games. It’s a third-person shooter that is driven by a competitive backbone. With video game companies trying to break into the Esports arena with new content to earn that sweet-sweet cheddar cheese, a game like Veiled E...[Read More]
After the Fall Review (PSVR 2)
And the PSVR 2 review titles keep on rolling. This time, it’s a zombie apocalypse game called After the Fall from Vertigo Games, creator of Arizona Sunshine. While After the Fall doesn’t do a helluva lot to push forward the zombie apocalypse that we’re eventually going to have to deal with in the real world, it does do enough to make the experience interesting, as well as multiplayer-driven. Let’s...[Read More]
Ragnarock Review (PSVR 2)
Recently, we have acquired a PSVR 2 (review forthcoming) and in doing so have unleashed a plethora of requests for games to try out. The first game that we downloaded for the newbie hardware was Ragnarock from WanadevStudio. While the structure of this game screams every tap game out on the market, including Beat Saber, it has enough variety and pointedness to show us it’s a bit different in some ...[Read More]
Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo Review
For the folks out there, that enjoy the logical torture of a Phoenix Wright game, you’re in for a treat with Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo. This game is mostly text-based with a heavy slice of the paranormal for the gameplay and story backbone, and unique elements that I’m not sure that I’ve seen before in a game during my lifetime (and I’m sure I’ve missed some games). Without furt...[Read More]
