Hob: An Open-World Metroidvania About a World Infected by Purple Goo

Hob (or in my case, the Definitive Edition of Hob) is a 3D adventure-platformer of sorts where you explore an alien planet infected with a strange purple goo.  The story is told wordlessly through the environment, and the game is completely devoid of music, the ambience being comprised largely of exotic animal noises.  The early…

Summer Game Fest – Focusing on the Positive

The first time I attempted to write this piece, I wound up with what amounted to an ex-tended rant about how utterly pointless events like Summer Game Fest have become. I went on and on about AAA publishers showing the same old stuff and using the same old tricks to try and drive preorder sales…

My Street Fighter 6 Glamour Endgame

Capcom recently completed its first year of character releases for Street Fighter 6, which ended with the unleashing of Ed, a powerful psycho-boxer, and Akuma, a classic combatant. With that all said and done, I’ve returned to the game myself…well, the World Tour, anyway, in order to play through their stories and max out their…

Silent Hill 2 Remake is Getting Some Backlash

A new trailer came out for Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 Remake, and it’s gotten a few people upset. It’s not so much that the gameplay looks bad or anything, it seems. But rather, it’s that a couple of the game’s major characters look more than a little…off in this upcoming version.
