Ugly Betty “How Betty Got Her Grieve Back” – Review

Old gays, news gays, little gays, and little greys. Directed by James Hayman, we know this wonderful queen from directing all the big episodes of Ugly Betty, including “Queens for a Day,” “Sofia’s Choice,” “Derailed,” and, of course, “East Side Story.” While…

It is Time for a New Vampire Hunter D Game

Anime tie-ins are more popular than ever. From Dragon Ball Xenoverse to the new upcoming Sword Art Online RPG, Echoes of Aincrad, there is big money to be made in anime adaptations in game form. After watching a recent Dungeon Chill video,…

Wax Heads (PC) Review

You kids today have things so easy, with your music streaming platforms that pay artists a pittance. Back in my day, if we wanted to acquire music through the Internet, we had to buy songs in a proprietary format on iTunes. Or,…

Bus Bound (PC) – Review

A handful of years later, and I am still both positively and negatively talking about Stillalive Studios’ previous bus-based simulation game. It would seem like poor form to mention it by name in the opening line of the review of the new…

Heated Rivalry and the Otherness of Gay Men

SoulQuest (PC) Review

I love a good action game. In fact, Bayonetta and Okami are two of my favorite games of all time. SoulQuest is inspired by this sort of action, but the irony is that the soul of those games doesn’t quite reach this…

Ugly Betty “East Side Story” – Review

To borrow from Tim Gunn this season: A prison break, a high school musical, a sex dungeon, a birth certificate, a pregnancy, a car crash, three weddings, and a soon-to-be funeral – oh my! Directed by the man who makes more impact…

Making Pokopia’s Post-Game Less Overwhelming

There’s a lot of anxiety that comes with just how massive Pokémon Pokopia looks and feels. As you begin to progress your Ditto’s story, you’ll find that you’re not just dealing with the massive landscape of Withered Wastelands, but four other distinct areas with…
