REJOICE!  REJOICE, MY LOYAL FOLLOWERS!  I was worried the Dead Space remake would not satisfy my hunger for intense sci-fi horror.  I would be left heartbroken wondering if I was living in ignorance when I played Dead Space back in 2009.  Did I not know what a good game was in my youth?  NAY, says… Continue reading Dead Space (2023) Review – Back from the Dead

Gluttony.  Overindulgence.  Intemperance.  These are words I would use to describe God of War Ragnarok.  Take heed, my loyal followers, and I promise there is no reason to break out the torches and pitchforks…yet.  Notice I didn’t use the words dreadful, foul, or just plain bad to describe the latest tales of Kratos and Atreus. … Continue reading God of War Ragnarok Review – Gluttonous

I can’t think of anything more awkward than being a reviewer unsure about a game.  What use do you serve by preaching on a metaphorical fence?  Nothing, you might as well be a crazed lunatic screaming into the void about how the video game industry is marching to its own demise.  What title has sent… Continue reading Scorn Review – Torn

Isn’t the holiday season just the worst?  All smiles and cheer.  People ask if you will put this obscure indie game on your Game of the Year list.  LISTEN BILLY, I am trying to pour through my back catalog.  Please don’t add another game to my pile of shame.  You know, this year overall was… Continue reading The Quarry – Bad Dog, No Holiday Cheer for You

I feel like every critic at one point or another has made this analogy.  It feels a bit cliche to reference Revenge of the Sith, but as I stare into my collector’s edition Callisto Protocol statue, the same rage and sadness that overtook Obi-wan washes over me.  You were the chosen one, I yell at… Continue reading The Callisto Protocol – Rotten to the Core

I nearly quit God of War within a few hours of starting the game.  I don’t subscribe to the old notion that games get better after a certain amount of hours played.  A turn-based JRPG doesn’t magically get better a hundred hours in if the first battle feels sluggish.  I have squandered many hours trying… Continue reading God of War (2018) Review – A Wishlist for Ragnarök

I did it again.  I put all my hope into an upcoming indie horror game all for said game to dash my hopes against the rocks like a ship lost at sea.  I am a moth to the flame when it comes to horror titles: drawn to the dread and the fear only to get… Continue reading Martha is Dead Review – Autopsy Report

An eerie creek echoes as a pair of eyes slowly open piercing through the dark.  The whites of the eyes slowly move towards you sitting motionlessly.  Shrouded in darkness, the owner of the eyes exclaims excitedly he hasn’t had a new challenger in ages.  The menacing eyes explain a card game that requires you to… Continue reading Inscryption Review – Blood, Bones, and Cards

New year, new me for not only us individuals but for the games industry as well.  By that, I mean the games industry will continue with the same bad habits it developed in past years.  In this case, it will continue to vomit up open-world games at an alarming rate.  As my eyes gaze at… Continue reading Horizon Zero Dawn – The Weight of the Open World
