The Road to Resistance is Paved with Good Intentions in The Outer Worlds
I must admit that I had pretty high hopes for The Outer Worlds when I started playing it late last October. I mostly ignored whatever the big gaming sites had to say about it, preferring, instead, to read the blogosphere’s judgement. Which was roundly positive. Well, mostly. In the midst of reading, I penned a…
A Newcomer’s MediEvil (PS4) Review
I want to start off this review by saying that, no, I have never played the original MediEvil game on the PS1, having been a Nintendo-only sort of gamer back in the 90’s. In fact, my first exposure to the series, in any sort of form, was the inclusion of Sir Daniel in PlayStation All-Stars…
Top 5: Favorite Games Played in 2019
Happy 2020, y’all! With the start of a whole new year with lots of twos and zeroes, it seems more than appropriate to bridge this moment between the end of Listmas and the beginning of a new year in gaming with a festive not-Listmas list post. And that list, the one that is right here,…
Listmas 2019: The Duck’s 6 Favorite Mini Games
For our final week of Listmas 2019, we decided to write about anything we felt like. Ironically enough, the Duck usually doesn’t enjoy mini games. In fact, I often resent it when a game makes me play them in order to progress or to obtain an item I need for 100%. However, having recently enjoyed…
Listmas 2019: Holiday-ing with Games
Christmas, Christmas time is here! And whether you’re still reveling in gifts or looking for a cozy spot to take a nap on this day after, it’s also as good a time as any to pick up a controller and dive into a game or seven. In my household, the season of Christmas and New…
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…
Listmas 2019: Getting Jiggy With It
Who got jiggy with it first? Will Smith or Banjo and Kazooie? Not that it really matters, because we all know the real answer. And it’s that the Banjo-Kazooie series is among the best 3D platformers ever! And while these besties, (errr, mostly, at least when Kazooie isn’t being uppity) have plenty to celebrate, least…
Listmas 2019: The Duck’s Favorite Jiggies
With Banjo and Kazooie’s semi-recent inclusion in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, we thought we’d make a list dedicated specifically to the bear and bird duo, a list of our favorite Jiggies! Today, I am listing my top 5 Jiggies from each game on the Nintendo 64. Let’s get started!
