Now that we’re squarely in the midst of 2025, it’s really been hitting how many of my favorite games from my student days now fall in the “retro” category of games. Where the likes of the GameCube and PS2 were once the new hotness, they’re now practically fossils. Heck, the younger member of the gaming…

Top 5: Favorite Ori and the Blind Forest Moments
This month marks the tenth anniversary of the release of Ori and the Blind Forest. Achieving critical acclaim and commercial success, this incredible platformer won over the hearts of millions of players, myself included. I’ve played through Ori and the Blind Forest several times, including once for our YouTube channel, and although I’ll always have…
EU Commission Bans Misleading Virtual Currencies
I don’t know about you all, but I seriously believe that the advent of microtransactions was one of the worst things to ever happen to video games. The moment large developers and publishers found out that they could make more money selling digital junk in their games than selling the actual games themselves is the…
Promenade: Demo Review
Starring a boy named Nemo and his pet poulp (octopus), Promenade is a 2D collectathon that is inspired by 3D platformers. The demo contains four stages, a simple tutorial level, a beach level, a rather challenging slingshot level, and a boss fight against an angry, bomb-chucking monkey.

The first was to become an expert shotgunner, and the second was to dive into some of the game’s newest expansions, including its expeditions to “The Pitt” and Atlantic City. As my new dweller, Karla,…
Insider Claims Resident Evil 9 Will Have Impact Similar to RE7
It’s been over a year since Capcom confirmed that Resident Evil 9 was in development, but so far the publisher hasn’t said anything else about the game. With AAA games being the overly massive projects they are these days, I’m not really surprised, but it seems that there is a reason for Capcoms silence.
No Door is Safe from Me in Hogwarts Legacy
In recent months, I’ve been slowly working my way through Hogwarts Legacy. I got the game on sale on the Switch because, ironically enough, it has more hard drive space left than my PS4 does (taking into consideration the fact that Switch games tend to have far smaller file sizes). Ever since my parents bought…
