Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is Flarkin’ Fantastic!
My last attempt at playing a superhero game was with Marvel’s Spider-Man, an excellent game according to one and all. After playing it for a few hours, I concluded that I was far more interested in swinging around New York as the titular friendly neighborhood hero than following Peter Parker’s story. In the moment, superhero…

Final Fantasy XIV, Because Free is Free!
Final Fantasy XIV wasn’t supposed to be part of my ongoing effort to try out free MMORPGs. It had been on my mind, because it’s nearly inescapable when reading about such games these days.

Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis Provides Slick Gameplay in a Hollow Shell
Furthering my efforts to try out free MMORPGs, I recently dove into another of my listed to-try titles – Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis. As I understood about what I had read of the game, New Genesis, released in 2021, was an upgraded and graphically-enhanced version of 2012’s Phantasy Star Online 2. Having only…

This is Not a Post about Bloodborne
Let me be clear from the start – I may have played Bloodborne, but I did not play Bloodborne. Let me explain. What happened was that, a couple weekends ago, I had a moment after watching a number of Elden Ring videos in which I thought I could totally do that. I really don’t know…
