“Fun” and Games: An Elaboration
In my post last week about Red Dead Redemption II, I made a passing reference to the fact that I didn’t think the game was fun.

First Impressions of Red Dead Redemption II
Last week, the week that marked the release of Red Dead Redemption II, one of the most anticipated games of the year, I tried my darndest to stay away from spoilers.

Rare Scares: The Haunted Cavern in Banjo-Tooie
While it’d be overdrawn to prescribe the adjective “terrifying” to the wonderful and wondrous Rare game Banjo-Tooie, like its predecessor, the game contains a couple…let’s call them unsettling sections. The one that always sticks out to me the most is the Haunted Cavern of Witchyworld, which we’ll explore here thanks to The Duck’s Let’s Play…
