It should be no surprise that I’ve accumulated quite a selection of games over the years, many of which I received as Christmas presents.

Listmas 2022: Gaming’s Coziest Spots
While gaming is usually about braving dangerous places in order to defeat the monsters living therein, sometimes gamers are treated to places that are just…nice. There’s no danger, nothing at stake and often just plain good feelings that kind of have one wishing that real live could be so chill. So, this week we’re all…
Listmas 2022: Cary’s coziest picks
If the onset of winter each year conjures one and only one feeling, it has to be the need to feel cozy. Bundled up. Safe and warm. Maybe a fireplace crackles in the background or a warm beverage sits nearby. The surrounding space could be tight, or it could be expansive – either way, the…

Top 6 Worst Stars in Super Mario 64
Super Mario 64 may have been a classic of its time, but that didn’t prevent it from being a major pain as far as certain stars were concerned. I was able to complete the game 100% years ago, and I attempted the feat once more during my recent recording of the game for YouTube. As…
Top 10 Worst Shine Sprites in Super Mario Sunshine
Having recently replayed Super Mario Sunshine on the Switch, my newest attempts at 100% were filled with plenty of fun…and plenty of utter aggravation. I had nearly forgotten how truly terrible some of these Shines are to collect, and I wanted to list my top ten worst Shines in the game, complete with a few…

A new year of gaming is upon us, and today, the Duck shall be discussing some of my top anticipated games that will be releasing in 2022 (in no particular order)! While some of them will be no surprise, I’ve made sure to round out the list with a few lesser known titles, with trailers…
Hatm0nster’s Most Anticipated Games for 2022
As someone who works on a game-themed blog, it should be easy to remember what all I’m looking forward to this year. Yet, every year I find myself struggling to think up a proper list. I think part of it is the sheer number of games coming out at any given time; you can quickly…
