The Coin Game
There are so many feelings to unpack here. This game has triggered me into hating Dave & Buster’s all over again. I miss actual arcade games. I miss the 80s and 90s D&B. I’m old. That’s about all the unpacking I need to do. Anyway! The Coin Game from developer devotid and publisher Kwalee has brought back all these bitter feelings about Ye Olden Days. Back in my day, we had actual arcade g...[Read More]
‘Rally Arcade Classics’ Review PC
Motorsports, in its purest form, is just racing time and going as fast as you possibly can. Running as hard as you can for the length you need to run. All forms. Formula 1, NASCAR, hell, even racing on the playground at school. Racing is something that gets into you, and you can’t let go. I remember arcade racing games at our local burger joint and movie theater as a kid were the ones I always wan...[Read More]

Akka Arrh Review (PSVR2)
Let’s take a walk down memory lane for a minute. Back in 2012, I stumbled across this neon racing shooter game called DYAD. I purchased it for my PS3 because I was heavily into psychedelic and sensory-overloading imagery, seeking the potential rush I got when playing WipEout on my PlayStation. I remember some of my friends saying that the game’s neon imagery combined with its momentum-based puzzle...[Read More]

Pac-Man Museum+ Review

Just last week, I played a bevy of old retro games that included Konami’s Track & Field, the entire Capcom Arcade Stadium collection, and ...[Read More]

It’s been a two year wait for WRC 7’s successor but it’s finally here and I’m glad to say, overall, it’s been worth the wait.
