The Walking Dead: Season 2, Ep. 3 “In Harms Way” Review

There are no developers like Telltale Games, as a matter of fact, their biggest competitor is unmistakingly themselves. After the critical success of The Walking Dead: Season One, It must be unnerving for Telltale to try and live up to the expectations they’ve thrust upon them selves. Continue reading The Walking Dead: Season 2, Ep. 3 “In Harms Way” Review

Towerfall Ascension Review

Towerfall is a terrific game and possibly the best game on the OUYA. Given that the platform is dying, developer Matt Thorson made the game ascend the OUYA by bringing it to PC and PlayStation 4 in the form of Towerfall Ascension. So, has this game successfully built itself up beyond the OUYA, or has it fallen so far from grace that it will die alongside the console that it was originally on?

Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut Review

MANIC MECH-MAYHEM

I have a weird relationship with dogfighter games. The only game I have personal experience with is Star Wars: Rogue Squadron on the GameCube–while I loved the game and poured hours into it, I can’t remember ever getting past level two. What I’m trying to get at is I suck at space fighters; however, with the release of Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut on the PS4, I was willing to try my hand again (understanding full well that my ass would be handed back to me by space marines). Is this Kickstarter space-themed indie accessible, or, like many space shooting games, do you need space-training to understand it? Continue reading Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut Review

Mario Golf World Tour Review

One of my favorite aspects about video games is the ability to experience things you would otherwise be unable to do, like being good at golf. Thankfully, the Mario Golf series has allowed athletically-challenged gamers like me to enjoy the thrill of golf without being exposed to the dangers of sunlight and green grass. Mario Golf World Tour for the Nintendo 3DS is the newest addition to the Mario Golf series. So is it worth your hard-earned coins? Continue reading Mario Golf World Tour Review

Late to the Party: Pokémon Y Review

Pokémon has been a very big part of my life ever since I got my hands on Pokémon Red over a decade ago. Needless to say, I was VERY anxious to play Pokémon X and Y when I found out that a new Pokémon game was being released. I happened to play Pokémon Y, and I was just as happy with the results as I could imagine! Continue reading Late to the Party: Pokémon Y Review

Earth Defense Force 2025 Review

I have the utmost respect for a game that is willing to give its players a rocket launcher on the first level. Bonus points if that rocket launcher has an unlimited amount of ammo, four shots per clip, and reloads in under two seconds.

First impressions are powerful things, and Earth Defense Force 2025 shows up wearing a very fancy suit coupled with cufflinks made from the chitin of dead, giant insects. EDF2025 is the most perfect gentleman. Continue reading Earth Defense Force 2025 Review

Kirby Triple Deluxe Review

Kirby Triple Deluxe for Nintendo 3DS is the latest game starring Kirby, Nintendo’s flagship pink puff. It is somewhat of an unofficial sequel to Kirby Return to Deamland (Wii, 2011). It is also the first portable Kirby game since Kirby Mass Attack (DS, 2011), and the first Kirby game on 3DS. So does it fulfill expectations, or is it all hot air?
