Since the very beginning of the video game industry, game developers and movie producers have tried to intermingle their business to eek out the most profit out of their mutual customers. The quality of these collaborations have always been suspect. Back near the beginning of the entire industry, Atari’s E.T. is one of the reasons…
I recently purchased NES Remix 2, having fully enjoyed and endorsed the original. There’s no point doing a second review because every single comment I made about the original applies here since it’s basically the exact same game, but with different, and better games available for remixing. Therefore, I thought I’d look at some of the…
I apologize for being so late on this one, given that both Burial at Sea chapters were released awhile ago. For the first time ever, I actually bought the season pass for a game, but I never really got around to downloading the Burial at Sea DLC until a few days ago. What I found…
Last week’s poll asked whether or not you played League of Legends. With 87.5% of the vote, it seems like most of you never fell into one of gaming’s most popular sons. The remainder of the vote was made up of people who used to, but no longer engage is the e-spot. I must say…
Last week’s poll asked for opinions on the upcoming Steam Machines. With 100% of the vote, you said that you didn’t understand what market Steam Machines are going for. This is an understandable result. Steam Machines aren’t consoles. They don’t have unique features, exclusives, and most of them are significantly more expensive than regular consoles.…
Yesterday was a dark day for the company that Mario built. Nintendo was finally faced with the fact that their projection to sell 9 million Wii Us by the end of the fiscal new year was completely unrealistic. This forced them to drop their forecast to less than a third – 2.8 million. To make…
This week’s poll asked what Q1 game you were most looking forward to. With 80% of the vote, Bravely Default took the top spot, while the capper to the must maligned Final Fantasy XIII trilogy, Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, took the rest of the vote. So, go Square-Enix It’s understandable as to why Bravely…
I know I said that I’d review Super Mario 3D World today, and that reviewing an older, more niche game isn’t exactly going to win me an audience, but I have stronger feelings for this game. Now that I often only have one slot a week, I have to be more selective with reviews. Disgaea…
This week’s poll asked you what Final Fantasy game is in the most need of a remake. I excluded the first four games in the series as they have all been remade already as well as the MMOs because I don’t know why you’d bother. The clear winner with 57% of the vote was Final…
That’s right, internet, it’s time for an obligatory game of the year post. While I ran a poll a couple of weeks back to ask what your individual game of the year was, it should come as no surprise that I was going to do one myself (especially since I confirmed it in that post).…
