We all have that one game that we were beyond excited for, only to find out it was canceled. Perhaps it was never even announced, quietly snuffed out to be discovered later. This can happen for many reasons, from the sudden closure of its development studio, to the unexpected decision to go in a different direction. These games were doomed to never see release, but that doesn’t mean the concepts were bad. Today I’m going to talk about one such game, known to fans as Resident Evil 1.5, which never saw the light of day. Continue reading DIGITALLY DOOMED: RESIDENT EVIL 1.5

7 EXCLUSIVE GAMES NINTENDO DIDN’T DESERVE
The video game industry owes a lot to Nintendo. People often point out how the former toy company single-handedly brought this entertainment medium back after the horrific crash, and went on to innovate and reinvigorate in a new generation of their own making — but that was then. Nowadays Nintendo is too hung up on gimmicks and maintaining an inoffensive online community, leaving lots of former fans in the cold. Too many awesome games go unnoticed by those who abandoned Nintendo, and here’s a handful that have no business being exclusive to this fading icon. Continue reading 7 EXCLUSIVE GAMES NINTENDO DIDN’T DESERVE

DISNEY INFINITY 3.0 – THE FORCE AWAKENS PLAY SET REVIEW
I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS…
Disney Infinity 3.0 surprised me when it released earlier this year, exceeding all of my expectations.
