As you can no doubt tell, I’m in a big Kingdom Hearts mood, which means I’m ending my Listmas posts with yet another KH list! Today, I’ll be ranking the boss battles from the first game, ranging from the absolute worst to the most fun. Pretty simple, right? Except, since there are so many bosses,…

Listmas 2025: Kingdom Hearts World Ranking
One of my favorite game series of all time is Kingdom Hearts, a mashup of Disney and Final Fantasy that is surprisingly deep and works far better than you’d expect. With memorable characters and lore that rivals that of Five Nights at Freddy’s, the first two numbered games of the series in particular will always…
Ranking All Psychonauts Levels
Having recently completed Psychonauts for the first time, I can safely say that the game has some of the most creative selection of levels I’ve ever seen in a video game. These levels take place in the minds of various characters you meet over the course of your adventure and can tell you a lot…
I Have Mixed Feelings for Psychonauts
Recently, I’ve been hearing a lot about Psychonauts 2, the highly anticipated sequel to, well, the first Psychonauts game, which released all the way back in 2005.

I No Longer Fear Change AKA A Thank You Letter for Naughty Dog

The first game, Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, was a lighthearted collectathon not unlike Banjo-Kazooie and Super Mario 64. And then Jak…
Listmas 2019: The Duck’s Favorite Games to Play Around Christmastime
This week, we’re covering the games we enjoy playing around Christmastime, whether it be alone or with others. I must confess that I don’t have many games that I would specifically play around Christmas, so I’m instead going to largely focus on games that I have played around Christmas (regardless of how much fun was…
Daxter: Gaming’s Best and Most Hapless Fool
If ever there was a character whose life was the embodiment of April Fool’s Day, it’s Daxter. Forming the crucial (but actually not-so-crucial) second half of the Jak & Daxter team, Daxter has had a rough go of it over the course of the Jak & Daxter games. His monumental run of bad luck actually…
