When it comes to moving about in games, some of them offer more options than just your two feet.

Listmas 2019: Top 6 Favorite Modes of Transportation
This week, we’re covering our favorite modes of transportation in gaming. And when I started thinking about all the possible options for this particular list, I realized that there is truly a wide variety of ways to get around.

Listmas 2019: 5 Best ‘Waiting Around’ Moments
Idle animations have always be somewhat underappreciated in games, don’t you think? The developers could just let the characters stand there like statues while we do whatever it is that’s taken us away from the game, but they don’t. More often than not, game makers take the opportunity to add just a little more fun…

Listmas 2019: Top 5 Favorite Idle Animations

Top 5 Boss Fights in Luigi’s Mansion 3
As I already mentioned in my Luigi’s Mansion 3 review, this newest entry in the franchise manages to improve upon the original game in pretty much every conceivable way. And that includes the boss fights! While the original Luigi’s Mansion had some…okay battles against, you know, a giant baby, or an annoying giant Boo that…
Top 5 Best Floors in Luigi’s Mansion 3
As I played through Luigi’s Mansion 3 for the very first time, one of my favorite parts of the game was the sheer anticipation of discovering the theme for each new floor. The Last Resort is no ordinary hotel (haunted or otherwise), as its many floors contain some pretty cool surprises. Being one of the…
Top 6 Worst Challenges in Spyro 2
Spyro 2 had a much greater variety in gameplay than its predecessor. In many ways, these were the necessary improvements all good sequels have to make. At the same time, this meant that Spyro 2 was also a far more frustrating game when some of the more irritating challenges were involved. Today, we will be…
Top 5 FNAF Fan Games
One can’t really talk about horror games these days without being reminded of Five Nights at Freddy’s. Love it or hate it, it can’t be denied that this series has spawned an immense popularity, with an increasingly confusing lore, lots and lots of merchandise, and let’s not forget…fan games! While the Five Nights at insert…
