Resident Evil Requiem Review (PS5)
Picture this. You’re 20 years old, going to college, and working at Waldensoftware in Fayette Mall (Lexington, Kentucky). A shipment of PlayStation games comes in with something called Resident Evil. You and your co-workers can’t stop laughing at the goofy opening, where a very mousse-haired man is running and shooting at dogs that aren’t real. And you think to yourself, “Who would ever buy this g...[Read More]
Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection (Chumps Preview)
Chumps Preview is a special kind of post where we unofficially preview games in Early Access, Beta, or are otherwise “unfinished.” This kind of preview is meant to be a first impression rather than a definitive review where we provide a rating to determine a game’s value. As such, we fully expect a game covered in a Chumps Preview to have room for improvement, some bugginess/incompleteness, and ot...[Read More]

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Review (Nintendo Switch 2)
Sometimes I like a little action with my strategy, but only when it promises to fit like a glove and not get in the way of the action. And this one almost fit perfectly. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, from developer Capcom, came out on the PlayStation 5 (and other platforms) around a year ago and has made its way to the Nintendo Switch 2. While not much has changed, other than playing it on a ...[Read More]
Street Fighter 6 (Nintendo Switch 2) Review
It’s been two years since Street Fighter 6 launched on the PS5, XBOX, and PC, knocking out players’ expectations by solidly delivering an accessible fighting game experience for anyone. As some competitors like Mortal Kombat 1 and Guilty Gear -Strive- have released for the Nintendo Switch with varying degrees of success, Street Fighter 6 has been noticeably absent from Nintendo’s hardware lineup… ...[Read More]
Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Review
Capcom is synonymous with fighting games. Street Fighter has cemented itself as one of gaming’s greats, matched in staying power and fame only by Mortal Kombat. And while Tekken and Virtua Fighter and King of Fighters and other mainstays have evolved over time, Capcom has created a definitive legacy. In the decades since the games available in Capcom Fighting Collection 2 released, preservat...[Read More]
Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Preview
On May 15, Capcom Fighting Collection 2 brings another packed roster of games to players seeking harder-to-find titles from Capcom’s storied decades of fighting games. Broadly speaking, any effort to bring games that had a limited release or are otherwise nearly impossible to acquire legally (without deep pockets, of course) is welcome. Capcom’s efforts over the past few years to breat...[Read More]
Monster Hunter Wilds Review (PS5)
For the past few years, I have been playing Monster Hunter on and off. The concept of a team-based hunting game that isn’t forcing player against player is a welcomed one. Cooperative teamplay is what attracted me to other games like the Destiny series, and what has kept my Battlefield dreams/hopes alive all these decades. It’s just fun playing a game with friends and accomplishing a common goal. ...[Read More]
Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics Review (PS5)
Oh, boy. This is a blast from the past. It was the summer of 1998 (maybe 1999, tough to say – I’m old), and I remember working at Waldensoftware in Fayette Mall in Lexington, Kentucky. Someone had decided that they were going to turn in their Sega Saturn and trade in the import Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter. I had a cartridge for my Saturn that would allow me to play imports, because that...[Read More]
SNK vs. Capcom – SvC Chaos Review (PS5)
My fighting game experience stretches back to the first Street Fighter game with punching pads for buttons. Outside of a badly designed cabinet that made you work, it was also a spark of an idea of what the franchise would eventually turn into in the next iteration. And in case you don’t know, Street Fighter II was an absolute hit in the arcades. Thankfully, Capcom lost the punching pads. Street ...[Read More]

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of The Goddess Review
Were you ever good at Desktop Tower Defense? I certainly wasn’t. But that didn’t stop me from soaking up hours of it on Kongregate or whatever Flash game website at the time. The tower defense zeitgeist at the time seemed to revolve around that dumb, simple game and rather than be on my PlayStation 3 I was probably idling away on it between Tumblr refreshes and browsing mp3 download si...[Read More]
