Nintendo Should Make Animal Crossing Plushies

Animal Crossing: New Horizons was the self-care we all needed in 2020. Museums used it for digital tours, drag performers put on full performances in Animal Crossing, and the average person took some time to relax and decompress on an island paradise.…

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey: First Impressions

I saw Assassin’s Creed Odyssey receive universal praise and suggested it to friends without experiencing it myself. I had mentioned previously that it was marked down in the Epic Games Store winter sale to a low price of $7.49, and I just…

I Was Wrong – Star Trek: Discovery

Warning: The following article may contain spoilers for series such as Star Trek: Discovery, Picard, Short Trek, Lower Decks, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise, and The Orville.

An MCU-Style Whoniverse; Yes, More Please

Russell T Davies has been on the media circus via Zoom &/or Skype for his new drama show, It’s A Sin. It is a series about a young gay man traversing the 80s at the height of the Aids epidemic. I honestly…

GALAHAD 3093 Beta First Impressions

The mech gaming genre has certainly had some ups and downs over the years. Metal Wolf Chaos is a hysterical, campy mech title. Steel Battalion has one of the most legendary controller peripherals of all time. Its follow-up, a Kinect exclusive, didn’t fare too well. I…

Three Star Wars Games We Want to See

Under the new Lucasfilm Games monicker, all Star Wars games will exist in a single place. Also, they’ll all be included in the official canon. With this new frontier available after the expiration of the EA exclusivity deal, there’s a lot to look…

Bloodstained’s Switch Port Needs Some TLC

Over our holiday break, Lisa and I delved into a game I had previously reviewed a few years back. I had followed Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night since its Kickstarter campaign and when it released I played the PS4 version for a…
