Review-Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line
You know…when I said I wanted to start Dragon Quest from the beginning, a friend warned me that the second game was exceedingly rough and needlessly difficult and my first thought was “EHHHH I’LL BE OKAY! I CAN ADAPT TO AGE, IT CAN’T BE THAT BAD!”. Let it be known that I have never called…

Review-Teppen
I’m what we in the business call a “Capcom fan”. For years I’ve followed the company and enjoyed nearly all of their major franchises. From Mega Man to Street Fighter, these games and by extension, the company, have left a massive impact on my life and after a rocky few years (Decade) they’ve finally started…

Review-Dragon Quest
Role-playing games have never been my strong suit. I had a strong aversion to them growing up due to my lack of patience and short attention span..but there was an RPG series that I always admired from afar. Dragon Quest. I was first exposed to the series with the 8th entry and the artwork for…

Review-Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes
Video games are really interesting products, aren’t they? No matter the quality, they can elicit such a strong reaction from someone, be it positive or negative. They can make a person feel intense amounts of joy, make them feel emotionally attached to its characters and world, and even provoke some to think about the world…

Review-Spyro Reignited Trilogy
Growing up I played a lot of games. I tried to play anything I could get my hands on and beat them to the best of my ability, it didn’t always WORK but you couldn’t blame me for a lack of effort. The weird thing is that for as much as I played those games,…

THIS REVIEW IS BASED ON THE NINTENDO SWITCH PORT….TRUST ME THAT’S WORTH PREFACING. Before I begin, please look at this real line of text that exists in this game.

Review-Mortal Kombat 11
“Where do I begin?” This has been a question that has been plaguing my mind ever since I decided to write about Mortal Kombat 11. So many things about this game that both work and don’t that I’ve been genuinely struggling with where to start with this write up. There’s a lot to unpack with…

Review-Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid
*This is based on the Nintendo Switch port I’ve been out of the loop for everything involving Power Rangers for well over the decade but it’s hard to deny the impact the series has had on me. Like most people I grew up with the series original run, Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers, and I absolutely…

Review-Jump Force
Sometimes I buy things as a joke. Not always the best idea. Something about trying out a thing you know you won’t necessarily like as just always been appealing to me since sometimes you may end up being surprised by it or even find entertainment from it. However other times it ends up exactly how…

Review-Kingdom Hearts III
My relationship with Kingdom Hearts is as complicated as its story. On the one hand I love the world it’s created throughout its long history and I think the Disney/Square-Enix fused environments are brimming with charm and personality. I also think the gameplay for each game is unique in its own way and each entry…
