I probably don’t need to tell any of you that 10 years is a long time, so picking just 10 games out from a literal decade of awesome stuff took some real thought. There are of course the games you instantly remember, but ot all of those were great experiences, you know? Sometines you can…

Listmas 2023: Awesome Cover Art to Deck Out the Halls With
Growing up, one of the best parts of getting at new game was pouring over the cover art on the trip home. It was like a little window into the experience you were about to undertake and helped your imagination to run wild with the possibilities. That particular experience has more or less gone away…

Cary’s 2021 Game of the Year (and Bonus Review!)
Looking back on my 2021 in gaming, two words come to mind: few and scattered. That’s to say I played plenty but didn’t complete many games, let alone any released in 2021. The only exception to this would be Mass Effect Legendary Edition. While its DLC was new to me, however, the excellent core experience…
Hatmonster’s 2021 Game of the Year
I don’t know about you, but I always struggle to recall what all I’ve played each year. It’s not that good games don’t leave an impression, rather it’s more that I play so many different ones (and talk about so many more) that it’s easy to lose track of them. Not to worry though, I’ve…
Ranking the Bosses of Metroid Dread
Metroid Dread has to feature one of the coolest portrayals of Samus Aran that fans have ever seen. I’ve already written a review of the game, but finding myself unable to quit talking about it quite yet, I decided it would be fun to rank all of the game’s bosses that Samus so expertly vanquishes,…
I Didn’t Dread Playing Metroid Dread
While I haven’t exactly played that many Metroid games, pretty much every console release since the original Metroid Prime on the GameCube has been a big deal for me. This particular game sees Samus investigating planet ZDR, from which the Galactic Federation received evidence that the dangerous X parasite is still in existence. While I…
With Metroid Dread, I Need to Get Out of My Own Way
According to my save file, I’ve put almost six hours into Metroid Dread. In my head, that time makes me think that I should be close to wrapping up the game; like the final boss should be on the horizon. In reality…well, I’m pretty sure that about a third of those six hours have been…
Metroid Dread can Already be Played in 4K (on PC)
It hasn’t even been a week since Metroid Dread released for the Switch, and emulation enthusiasts have not only managed to get the game to run on PC, they’re supposedly getting it to run better. I’m not sure if this is an emulation mile stone or anything, but it sure is crazy to think that…
The Latest Metroid Dread Teaser is…Wow!
Okay, so I don’t usually do this, but spoiler warning for those wanting to go into Metroid Dread completely blind. I, of course, don’t know anything more than what’s already been shown by Nintendo, but Nintendo just revealed a lot in the last trailer, so turn back now if you want the full impact of…
