“Life is Strange 2 – Episode 1: Roads” Review
The original Life is Strange is a game that easily clicked for me because stories of teen angst have always been a guilty pleasure of mine. The game’s five episodes really set the story up to be the “Dawson’s Creek” or “The O.C.” as far as narrative video games went, and I enjoyed them immensely–up until the final choice of last episode, which made me hate the game in general. The fact that it got this sort of reaction from […]
“Red Dead Redemption 2” Review
It’s finally time for a review of Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2. Months after release? Such is the life of a gamer with too much going on and yet so much to do within a massive game. Was it worth it? Or was it a chore? It’s ultimately a fair amount of both, depending on how you handle yourself or how much you care. Let’s ride this one out. What Is It? You’re Arthur Morgan, a gunslinging outlaw in a […]

“YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG” Review
While it does a lot of interesting things, YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG is a reminder that without a good cast, nobody will care about what the story is about.

Chris’ Top 10 Games of 2018
2018 was a hell of a year for games.
Patrick’s Top 10 Games of 2018
There’s something to be said for consistency. Going into 2018, I could have put together a list very much like this one predicting how my top picks of the year would pan out, with the only surprises being games that didn’t hit the radar until later. That’s not to say that 2018 was a disappointing year. As you will soon read, I consider it to be very much a banner year for the industry, just… maybe not in the same […]
Filippo’s Top 10 Games of 2018

Brandon’s Top 10 Games of 2018
For me, 2018 was the year of comebacks.
Josh’s Top 10 Games of 2018
2018 was a year full of highly awaited sequels, anticipated new franchises and a surprising number of “battle royale” modes top publishers were trying to cash-in on due to Fortnite’s monstrous popularity. There have been let-downs, microtransaction debates and studios shutting down that have let franchises in limbo as well, but despite these topics of debate, 2018 saw one of the best years in gaming. All three consoles had stellar first party support and blockbuster multi-platform games such as Red […]
Alex’s Best of 2018
2018 was an interesting year for myself and gaming. To start the year, my apparently cheap self finally sprang for an external hard drive, ready to take on ALL THE GAMES… on just one console, because I didn’t buy two. But hey, I got the time!
