It’s funny how easily we can wind up playing games we’d otherwise pass by. I’d heard of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim a few times over the past couple of years, but I never really had any plans to check it out. Anime games usually aren’t my thing for one, and I’ve also already seen the…

Deathloop First Impressions
Fact is, I should have played Deathloop when I first picked up the game last year. It was right around the Christmas holiday, when I had a nice chunk of time off. And had I known, or rather, paid attention to what the game offered, I might have more strongly opted to play it then….
The Chant gets a Release Date
The Chant, a new horror game from developer Brass Token, got a release date just a few days ago. It’ll be ready to spook and scare as of November 4th. I gotta say, for a game from a relatively unknown indie developer, this is actually looking pretty interesting?

To (Not Quite) Infinity and Beyond in Star Trek Online
When I started out with my summertime free-to-play MMORPG free-for-all, there were five games on my list: DC Universe Online, TERA, Skyforge, Phantasy Star Online 2 NG, and not Final Fantasy XIV, but rather Star Trek Online. After the FFXIV diversion, there was only one thing left to do, and that was to give Star…
[Revisited] I’m Both Happy and Disappointed That I Waited So Long to Play A Hat in Time
It’s amazing how much staying powers some games can have.

It’s been two years since I posted this, and yet A Hat in Time is still…

Stray – A Spoiler-Free Review
In 2020, my cat passed away after what we hope was an enjoyable nineteen years with us. We all know 2020 was a bad year; this made it personally one of the worst in recent memory. I thought I had come to terms with his loss over the past two years, but about five minutes…
[Revisited] So Nintendo, Where’s That Donkey Kong Collection At?
It’s now been two years since the last major collection got released by Nintendo, and there’s still no sign that the publisher/developer is planning to release a Donkey Kong collection. So, let’s ask again: where’s it at Nintendo???
