The hardest reviews to do are the games that you really really just want to praise into the high heavens (no pun intended) and just love it through and through. Bioshock Infinite is one of those games that seem to get universal praise across the board, magazines and websites everywhere praising it for its deep story and marvelous visuals, but a game is not built up out of narrative and graphics alone. This should have never been a first person shooter.

The first iteration of the acclaimed Castlevania series on the 3DS is a surprisingly entertaining endeavor. Though a flawed experience, this is a good first step onto familiar territory for an ever evolving series. (more…)
EA has announced that it will be implementing micro-transactions in every game it will release with the new generation. Many view this as a bad thing, and I would agree if it is handled in the wrong way. (more…)
Thomas Was Alone is a game about rectangles. These rectangles are some of the most engaging and rewarding personalities I have ever seen in a video game, and they make this game a very worthwhile experience. (more…)

Welcome puny heroes to the Dungeonland! Under the management of Paradox Interactive you can “enjoy” this theme park as much as you like. Do you have the endurance to experience the whole theme park, or would you rather take control of it? (more…)
I freakin’ LOVE puzzle games. I always liked to challenge my brain with riddles, puzzles, mysteries and all that, and one of my favorite genres of games is the now almost extinct ‘point and click’-adventure game. In its heyday, probably the best adventure games came from LucasFilm Games studio, later LucasArts. Adventure greats like Sam & Max: Hit the Road, The Dig, Day of the Tentacle, Grim Fandango and the Monkey Island series set the bar extremely high for competing games. Funnily enough, a lot of these previously mentioned games came from the brilliant minds of Ron Gilbert and Tim Schafer. (more…)
During the late 1920s and 1930s a gentleman of Providence, RI frequently sat down to write stories about horrible things, cosmic malevolence, alien landscapes, forbidden books and more ghastly things too horrid to imagine. This man was known as Howard Philips Lovecraft and is often cited as being one of the most influential horror writers of the 20th century.

I think I can finally have a decent opinion about this matter. (more…)
