Let it be known on the record that Resident Evil Revelations isn’t just some forgotten handheld spinoff, but is in fact a vital component of the Resident Evil series and one of the most important steps for restoring the series to...

Before this month started I’d never played a Devil May Cry. Incidentally, now that I have I am 85% more cool. The DMC franchise is a beast I’ve always wanted to tackle but never had the time. Character action games weren&rs...

In the darkest, murkiest corners of the web (Reddit, 4chan) a network of conspiracies was created which is bubbling to the surface, attaining mainstream media attention.  You may be hearing bits and pieces about QAnon, the most re...

Travelling along the vast countryside of Hyrule I stop to take a break.  I feed my horse a few carrots, scout out my surroundings from the top of a hill and look for some landmarks. It's an area I've been through a few times, Hyru...

We're reaching the end of 2017, which means it's obligatory game-reveal season.  Expect to see the seasonal batch of new games, some interesting IPs from trusted developers, remakes of beloved classics and maybe a trailer for a ga...

Ladies and gentlemen, your lives are all meaningless and your daily routines are shallow grinds through the dark put that is humanity.  Want to know why? Because too many people fail to recognize that Rock Lobster is the greatest ...

Remember FEAR? That action horror series for the last generation of consoles that petered off into obscurity when it decided dude-bro military antics and online multiplayer were the be-all and end-all of shooters?  Me neither, bec...

I've been observing a lot of people expressing distaste for reviewer Jed Whitaker lately, especially after the review of Valkyrie Drive. I just wanted to address a few issues I had with a few of the opinions people stated and take a fa...

Today I beat Breath of the Wild. My save file has 20 hours in it, I beat all of the Divine Beasts and slew Ganon with the Master Sword. It was pretty special, and I think there's a few things that contributed to making it a fantastic e...

Every generation of consoles revolutionizes something about the industry. The PS1 and N64 developed 3D gaming, and the Gamecube, PS2 and Xbox introduced online gaming and evolved many genres around two thumbsticks.  Last generatio...

These past few weeks have been weird.  JonTron came out and said some incredibly shocking comments about racial segregation. Pewdiepie was criticized by the Wall Street Journal for making a joke about killing jews. And now H3H3 ma...

I've expressed many times how disappointed I was with the horror genre in the last generation, but allow me to recap to those who are unfamilar: Fuck. I can name the number of genuine survival horror games on PS3 and Xbox 360 on one ha...

I was rewatching Errant Signal's analysis of Alien Isolation when I noticed something weird about a critical scene near the end of the game.  In it, Amanda has just learned about the fate of her mother, and through a nearby window...

Valentines Day is a time for romance, where two (or more, no judgement) partners connect intimately and take a day to show respect for their flourishing or long-lasting relationships.  Unless you're single in which case Valentines...

A little late to the party, but I finally got around to playing Another Metroid 2 Remake.  I had known about AM2R long before it gained widespread notoriety upon its release, but didn't get around to it because it was cease and de...

In the past year, I've played a lot of shooters. 2016 was the year of the shooter for me and I played Doom and Quake for the first time, and immediately fell in love. Since then I've gone back and played a lot of classic shooters, but ...

Everything you have done or will ever do in your life is without meaning. Your impact on the state of the world is miniscule, and no matter how hard you try or what you can achieve, it will never amount to much. Your life is just a gra...

I consider myself a game collector, and unlike some people, that doesn't mean I have 4,000 games on my Steam backlog. So far, it's meant going out to flea markets and searching online for games I'd like to add to my collection. In some...

Now don't get me wrong, it's not that Demon's Souls is unappreciated, but let's face it. Demon's Souls is dramatically overshadowed by its older brother.  And to some extent, that was unavoidable. It was PS3 exclusive when all the...

There were a lot of good shooters this year, and the fact that Doom and Overwatch ended up on most bloggers' top 10 lists showed how that genre really made a comeback in 2016.  And while Doom is my personal pick for 2016's game of...

Right now I have hundreds of games on my shelf, and I'm sitting here watching my cat chase her own tail.  So I went through and played a ton of games this year, and really flushed out my backlog. I didn't play every game to comple...

If you've been a gamer for a while, chances are you've experienced two of the best years in gaming: 1999 and 2006. People seem to agree that in those two years, games were at their peak.  1999 was a revolutionary time. 3...

Sex is hot, steamy and the pinacle of everyone's lives. If you haven't had sex yet, you have yet to enter adulthood and are just a little babby. Or at least that's how sex is presented in mainstream media. Comic books, movies, tel...

When we look back fondly to the 90s and early 2000s we remember beloved titles like Quake, Doom and Deus Ex. What we may not remember are the slapdash, shoddy and rushed ports of these games to console that failed to do the originals j...

I have no idea if there will be a part two to this, FYI. I recently walked into an EB Games (Gamestop's Canadian name) and recently found a bin of $2 games. I ravaged the selection and walked out with a bunch of great games, and some I...

While we're still probably years off from Death Stranding's launch, a lot of people are speculating as to what the story might entail. Some people think the game takes place in purgatory, where the characters are suck in between life a...

I think I've owned just about every version of RE4 that's come out, and that's a lot of shame and regret to wade through.  RE4 has had an egregious number of rereleases, which isn't a bad thing necessarily. But I find that bu...

A good game demo makes people want to play the full game. A great game demo is a full game.  We saw that with PT. PT wasn't great because it showed us a slice of gameplay we might've seen in Silent Hills, but because it felt like ...

The late 1990s was known as the heyday of PC gaming. Games like System Shock, Deus Ex and Thief redefined open-ended gaming, and provided immersive experiences that allowed player expression and toyed with storytelling through environm...

President-elect Donald Trump made his first real announcement to the public since his election, not via press conference, as almost every president before him has. Instead he chose to talk to the public via Youtube.  It's obvious ...
