Mario Kart World - Review

Game in Hand ·

2025/06/14

I am a Mario Kart simp, so of course I would like it. It is a huge ask to pay such a large price up front for what we have day 1. I think we will be more judgemental about what comes in the future as I do feel like they didn't quite nail free roam or incentivize completionist mentality, or simply WHY STICKERS. I did play around on the hovercrafts, helicopters and seeing what I could find. I did see a UFO but had to chase it over the ocean. I do think this game represents the best of what the

Dune Awakening Closed Beta - Impressions

Game in Hand ·

2025/05/20

I find the Dune lore fairly engaging so I was more than willing to jump on the beta weekend with an open mind and enjoy some survival craft. I do think the start needs to be accelerated a bit more than it already is with super respawn times, because the opening sprawl and time commitment to figuring things out is massive.Some people dig that, I imagine they are targeting those people, especially.The sounds of a truck running in the background was in fact, fun construction truck idling.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Review

Biggest flaw about the game is it treats itself like a less than full priced game. It's a game to remember. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Elder Scrolls 4 (IV) - Oblivion Remaster Review

Game in Hand ·

2025/05/01

Day 1 for Gamepass, our cup runneth over. <3I don't think there is a better reason to need to re-play, or experience Oblivion for the first time. But man, no matter what, Bethesda going to Bethesda. What originally felt like a game on the edge of the limits of content and design, comes back almost 2 decades later, seemingly feels like realizing graphics both improves but does not make the game. I think the ability to scale graphics to any level is a benefit but at some point, you pass the point

Blue Prince

Game in Hand ·

2025/04/17

You take the good with the bad. It's fun having a house designed by some cryptic guy, play out like familiar board games, and struggle like a poorly implemented rogue-lite function. Sounds a lot easier than the hoops most of us go through to get a house. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Switch 2! - Nintendo Direct Recap

2/4/2025 - Nintendo Direct Recap and Thoughts. Nvidia states it is 10x more powerful than the original switch, therefore by Nvidia logic 5070=4090=switch 2.3/4/2025 - Apparently the follow up stream was filled with people just spamming about price.*List of edits and updates for accuracy!**The panel in handheld mode is capable of 120hz, VRR, and HDR. Metroid Prime 4 for example is being advertised as 1080p120 in performance mode.*Can use non-nintendo USB cameras but there is some vagueness about

Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 - Review

Game in Hand ·

2025/03/30

A great pixel roguelite. It is a true sequel with extra classes and expanded advanced specializations. It still needs some TLC and polish, but it certainly has kept my interest. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (PC) - Review

Game in Hand ·

2025/02/27

Someone should stand up and say the original was better while agreeing you can still have fun playing FF7 rebirth/remake. It is really an amusement park themed retelling, of the concept of final fantasy, using FF7 as a foundation, that was allowed to M.Night Shyamalan too many times. I just think people would have paid money for half the game this actually was but focusing on the right kind of character development and things that would make sense, more than how many mini games and multiverses one

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Review

Game in Hand ·

2025/02/14

Nostalgia bait, except they delivered on it. It's hard not to feel like the great circle picked up where the trilogy ended. I haven't enjoyed an indiana jones game since Fate of Atlantis and really the lego games were the only real contenders.Odd start to the year with Sony events and discussions, Xbox deciding even you can be an xbox if you want to be, and having two Take Two studios releasing games within months of each other.

Path of Exile 2 Early Access Impressions

Game in Hand ·

2025/01/24

Good start to a unpolished ARPG. I know it's not updated enough to say anything definite, but a month an a half later, there are more peak players logging into Path of Exile 2 than people playing GTA V. Banana has overtaken POE2, so... obviously it's not THAT good... I guess. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

(Extra!) Indie Games I Liked in 2024

Honestly, there were a bunch of indie games I left off my top 2024 lists and should have slotted them in somewhere, somehow. Check out Cryptmaster, The Ten Bells, The Case of the Golden Idol, and Nine Sols. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zelda Echos of Wisdom & Mario and Luigi Brothership

Game in Hand ·

2024/12/03

I promise I'll only call it Mario and Luigi brotherhood like 3 times.I am seriously at a loss here. Nintendo outlets rejoicing over Brothership, Media and User scores on Metacritic are aligned, calling this game an 8/10. Why am I not on the same wavelength? Worse, I am seeing the outlet I agree with is none other than IGN. The M&L recipe was followed but to me it tastes like a copper penny. Zelda on the other hand is staple Nintendo experience, but I was over the moon that Mario and Luigi

Metaphor ReFantazio Review

Game in Hand ·

2024/11/17

Atlus' studios are really good at the persona formula and despite some changes that made them try and indicate "yeah it's made by the persona team, but it's a "new" RPG!", blind taste test would say otherwise. The art style and music are simply interesting and refreshing vs some of the blandness we've been exposed to recently. The plot is a bit bonkers and again we're experiencing an "okay just go with it" in the plot arcs, but I don't think I felt I should stop playing at any point so it was hard

Top 10 NDS Games

Game in Hand ·

2024/10/28

What can I say... the NDS was not about fully 3D games, it was about interactive games. The forced touch experience was really make it or break it for a lot of games. Great to see a lot of developers embracing it because we all know how much developers loathed the nauseating 3D feature of the 3DS.A lot of these games have innovative aspects to their touch controls while others feel shoe horned into the concept. Really that was make or break for me. Hope at least we line up in a few of the top

Core Keeper & FFXVI Demo - Impressions

Game in Hand ·

2024/10/04

What is it that is so appealing about tile based exploration and crafting games. It's very rudimentary but stole my interest longer than a few other titles I've played recently. It definitely has a lot going for it and aside from peaking a bit early in functions, it's a solid game.On the other hand, squeenix needs some tough love when it comes to PS5 exclusives being slowly re-released on PC. I am a fan of the lower sticker price for the base version, but I am just not loving it. 30 FPS games

Kunitsu-Gami Path of the Goddess

Game in Hand ·

2024/09/19

Capcom said the game sold 500,000 copies on July 19th, we're 2 months past that point. Maybe players need a gentle reminder to review... or I guess play it since they are all probably part of the 500,000+ peak concurrent players playing wukong everyday.Don't sleep on Kunitsu-Gami, it has a lot of offer, plays well on handhelds, and we need capcom to hold the banner for other AAA studios to take a risk every once and a while and serve more games like this instead of Games that throttle you down As a
