Atari 2600+ Pac-Man Edition Review (Console)
It has been quite a blast from the past this week with Atari. The first item of interest was Atari 50’s The Namco Legendary Pack DLC, which was reviewed earlier today. The second, and this current review, is of the Atari 2600+ Pac-Man Edition, a recently released special edition Atari 2600+ console that celebrates 40+ years of Pac-Man with a special edition system and a special edition Pac-Man car...[Read More]
Atari 50 – The NAMCO Legendary Pack DLC Review (PS5)
The video game history-loving side of me is thrilled that Atari is continuing its expansion of the Atari 50 series. To date, it has hit all the right notes when it comes to providing background information about the games I grew up with in the ’80s and, sadly, the ‘90s. It has delivered on its promises, even when the games and systems were rubbish. What’s not rubbish is the latest DLC releas...[Read More]

Wizordum Review (PS5)
Wizordum is a standout entry in the renaissance of what has become colloquially known as boomer shooters. But 30 years ago we would have called them first-person shooters. Or arena shooters. Or, perhaps, just an action game. Look, I’m not a boomer. And honestly, I kind of hate the slang “boomer” being applied to anything not preceded by an “okay.” Still, it’s a ...[Read More]
Bubsy In: The Purrfect Collection Review (PS5)
I love video game history and revisiting the past as much as I can. Hell, on my shelf in my office sits a 1970s home PONG machine that I break out and stream on Twitch when I have time (and the VCR passthrough). That said, sometimes games struggle to recapture their magic and the era they were born within. I’ve run into a few games like that in the past, where I can appreciate them on a history bu...[Read More]
Adventure of Samsara Review (PS5)
I have always been under the belief that games should be fun and not work. That is the main reason why I don’t play Dark Souls games. If I wanted to struggle or get a taste of real life, I would just not play games. Not making yourself miserable should always be your gaming goal. I’m going down this road with you because recently I played Adventure of Samsara from developer llex Games and publishe...[Read More]
