I’m Glad to See Demos Making a Comeback

With games getting ever more expensive and often in new and “exciting” ways, having the chance to try before you buy is extremely valuable. I needn’t list off the merits to you, as there’s really only one that matters: getting to see if the game is actually for you or not. Some games sound great…

Combing the Commonwealth, Again?

When I restarted Fallout 4 after its “next-gen” update in late April, I didn’t have much of an agenda. Maybe I’d save the Commonwealth, maybe not. Mainly, I wanted to see what, if anything, had changed thanks to the update. Comparing screenshots, I guess the game looks better? The environments are a bit more vibrant,…

Helldivers 2 to See Several Weapon Tweaks Soon

As fun as it is, Helldivers 2 isn’t without its flaws.

Big Times in Sackboy: A Big Adventure

Over my winter break, I was looking to clear out my backlog a little, and I stumbled across Sackboy: A Big Adventure. It had become free at some point through PS Plus, and as I had heard decent things about it when it was new, I snatched it up…only to have it sit, sit, and…

Looking Longingly at PC Gaming

There was a time when I thought consoles were (and would always be) the best way to play. They were so much easier and faster than PCs and I’ve always much preferred a gamepad to keyboard controls. Of course, the years have seen most, if not all, the advantages of console gaming slowly get whittled…

Even though the denizens of Twitter/X have done their utmost to drum up controversy around it, Stellar Blade is still poised to be one of the PS5’s more major releases this year. Everything shown of it up to this point has made th game look like it’ll be an awesome action thrill ride, and now…

Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series: Demo Review

Of the dwindling number of interesting retro games that I have still yet to play, the Klonoa games are one such series that sit relatively high on my to-do list.  While I don’t know much about these games, these cute 2D platformers just look like something I’d have a lot of fun with, and so…
