Not too long ago, #7favegames was trending on Twitter. After several days of collecting my thoughts and such, I decided I'd compile my seven favorite games. Keep in mind with lists like these that personal preference holds greater significance than a more objective analysis(hence the title "favorite" not "best"). Also, it's important to remember that … Continue reading 7 Favorite Games

Sorcery Saga: Curse of The Great Curry God Review(7/10)
Rogue-likes are intimidating. The traditional role playing rogue-like in the vein of Mystery Dungeon is one of the most underrepresented genres in contemporary gaming, making it difficult for newcomers to acquiesce to. Fortunately, Sorcery Saga: Curse of The Great Curry God fits into that mold, acting as the perfect entry point for the genre. Sorcery Saga begins … Continue reading Sorcery Saga: Curse of The Great Curry God Review(7/10)
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2 Sisters Generation Review(5.5/10)
If Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 showed promise for a franchise that could grow past mediocrity and become something special, then Re;Birth 2 squanders that potential full force. It makes some interesting minor additions, but comes up short of its predecessor. The first addition comes in the form of four player party battles as opposed to the … Continue reading Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2 Sisters Generation Review(5.5/10)
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 Review(6.5/10)
The Hyperdimension series has become huge over the past few years, almost to the point of self referential parody. What began innocently enough as a single turn-based rpg grew into a franchise with multiple remakes and spin-offs ranging from an idol management simulator to a strategy rpg. One could argue the franchise's true beginning wasn't until … Continue reading Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 Review(6.5/10)
Gone Home Review(8/10)
Three years on from release and Gone Home has one of the most infamous reputations in recent memory. Sure, it was recieved well by critics, but consumers weren't so kind to it. It's one of those games with a huge divide between the general critic and consumer consensus. Those that swear against Gone Home claim … Continue reading Gone Home Review(8/10)
Titties and Dead or Alive 5: Last Round
It's no secret that Dead or Alive 5: Last Round, and the Dead or Alive series as a whole, prides itself on tits and ass. Over the years, the sex appeal has become inseparable from the franchise, be it the mainline fighting game series or the XTREME spin-offs. Dead or Alive loves to show people tits … Continue reading Titties and Dead or Alive 5: Last Round
Project X Zone 2 Review (6/10)
This sequel to the 2013 crossover title aims to right the wrongs of the original, but does it actually make a marked improvement? The original Project X Zone was a mediocre game that suffered from a lot of problems. It was plagued by repetitive combat/missions, excessive dialogue, and an insultingly easy difficulty along with the … Continue reading Project X Zone 2 Review (6/10)
Bioshock Infinite: The Game That Fell Into The Triple-A Trap
Bioshock Infinite was one of 2013's critical darlings, however after playing through the game multiple times, I couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the end product. Let's travel back to 2010. This is the year consumers saw the first ever gameplay footage of Bioshock Infinite and it looked amazing. The gameplay consisted of a short … Continue reading Bioshock Infinite: The Game That Fell Into The Triple-A Trap
RPG’s Are Fantastic on Handhelds
Gaming is a huge commitment as any avid gamer can tell you. It isn't as easily digestible as forty minute music albums or two hour films, both of which are generally meant to be completed in a single sitting. By virtue of the fact that video games are so long and cost more money than … Continue reading RPG’s Are Fantastic on Handhelds
