Holy Potatoes! We’re in Space?!
Never in my wildest dreams did I picture myself playing a game where I would be playing as potatoes. Not only potatoes but other foods with celebrity pun names like Bendy Cumberpatch and Scallion Johansson, yes you read that right. Nonetheless, this is a review so let me tell you all about this zany game. The story behind the game is that your characters are being chased by another large ship. Yet...[Read More]
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II comes to PC
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II picks up one month after the decisive moment that changed the fate of the entire nation at the conclusion of Trails of Cold Steel. Speedy, tactical turn-based combat utilizing the Cold Steel series’ trademark “ARCUS” system returns with all the bells and whistles players fondly remember, alongside a new Overdrive mode, new means of transportation acros...[Read More]
Romancing SaGa 2
Old school RPGs can be surprising sometimes, especially when the genre is shifting into an action/RPG mentality and away from turn-based style of play. Romancing SaGa 2 was an eye-opening surprise, though also showing its age in some aspects. The story of RS2 revolves around the Emperor/Empress (your choice at the beginning of the game) of Avalon. You start out as King Leon, whose son, Gellard, ac...[Read More]
World of Final Fantasy (PC Review)
One of my favorite PlayStation 4 games heads to the PC. It’s about time, but it definitely takes some GPU muscle to get it going. There aren’t a lot of role-playing games that catch my fancy outside of the usual suspects. There are role-playing games out there that have the essence of old school on them, but they are generally drowned out with heavy action. By going that gameplay route they ...[Read More]

South Park: The Fractured But Whole
My last interaction with anything South Park was back when Jesus vs. Santa was snuck into PGA Tour and distributed via EA to unsuspecting golf enthusiasts. Since then, the success of the South Park franchise has been on the up and up, and while I don’t necessarily love the humor (goes against my comedy taste at times), I can understand why others do. It’s a show that goes against the grain (hard a...[Read More]
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions Review
Having never played the previous title from Nintendo, I came into Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions fresh and ready to experience a turn-based RPG action adventure without any negative notions to go along with it. As you’re reading this review keep that in mind. Created originally in 2003, and was critically acclaimed when it made to the Game Boy, the jest of the game surrounds...[Read More]
Oh…Sir!! The Insult Simulator
Oh…Sir!! The Insult Simulator is a simple and unique experience that brings the oddity of gaming to somewhat of a new level, but at a reasonable price. How could you possibly put a price on saying someone’s mother is vile and dances like a Nazi? You can’t. I mean, Vile Monarch did, but honestly I’m not sure you could put a value on it. On that note, let’s dig right into the game. If you coul...[Read More]
Atlas Reactor celebrating big for the holidays (and other stuff)
This makes me think of the Sonic the Hedgehog Adventure on the Dreamcast when the holidays rolled around. Glad to see devs are in the creative holiday spirit with their games. Atlas Reactor, Trion Worlds’ simultaneous turn-based battle arena game, is celebrating this month’s festivities with a free Winter-themed update, adding the brand-new playable Freelancer, Phaedra, an imposing frontliner.
