Twenty-two years ago, the world was introduced to an animated raccoon (OK, technically a tanooki) real-estate investor, general store owner and probable mob boss. To say it was a simpler time would…

The past year has seen a skateboarding game resurgence. Skater XL reached 1.0 status July 2020, the remakes of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 launched two months later, and Session has been on Steam…

Sisterly villagers are one of two types you'll start out with in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. They accompany the jocks as an original resident, and there's not much to dislike about them. In my…

Cranky villagers were always unique, mostly because of their deeper baritone voices and often... well, cranky personalities. Mostly cantankerous and a bit stand-offish, cranky villagers represent the…

Peppy is a female-only type of villager in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Not to be confused with the sisterly villagers, these particular personality types are a bit over the top in their mannerisms…

Ahh the normal villager. The vanilla to our rocky road, the gray to our red and blue, the toast to our... well you get the picture. Normal villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons are often the…

There are two types of villagers that you always start out with in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and one of them so happens to be a jock. This is the most masculine of the personalities, and as such…

OK I got to admit, Snooty villagers in Animal Crossing are probably the worst villager personality in the game. Even more so than the Cranky villagers, Snooty villagers are pompous, incredibly vain,…

Though one of the new types of personalities, smug villagers in Animal Crossing are perhaps one of the most diverse and well-defined group of villagers in the game. Their ‘holier than thou’ attitude…

I've been playing a lot of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and loving a lot of it. I'm not a seasoned veteran, so much of the game is new to me. One thing has quickly become clear, though: selling …

I spent a solid 24 hours in my review of Ciel Fledge: A Daughter Raising Simulator. This game developed by Studio Namaapa and published by PQube is an interesting mix of visual novel, life simulator…

With the release of games like Overwatch, Dishonored 2, Stellaris, and DOOM (just to name a few), 2016 certainly had no shortage of (generally) well-received titles. By the time the holiday season…

Its pretty clear that No Man's Sky might be the most divisive game to have been released in quite some time. While it would have been easy to talk about what I personally don't like about the game…

E3 is right around the corner and its time for a few predictions! Sony has held strong as the Playstation 4 is arguably the leading game console. It's an exciting time to be a Playstation fan with so…

At its core, E3 is the rough equivalent of having your parents tell you what you are getting for Christmas ahead of time. You've got all these big developers and publishers going on stage and…

Boy howdy have I been loving Stardew Valley. It's nearly a perfect game, and the developer ConcernedApe has stated that he'll continue to work on it for some time. I view it as a nearly perfect title…

Fallout Shelter recently pushed a notification that new rooms would be coming in an update. I neglected to get a screenshot of the notification, but thankfully Redditor /u/Krade33 snapped one and…

2016 is an exciting year for people like me. With the advancing technology edging us forever closer to the promise of being able to explore actual universes it becomes increasingly less of a problem…

Ever since I was a little kid wistfully looking up at the stars, I've always longed for a chance of going up there myself to see the universe a bit closer than I can from down here. Since a career as…

I want to confess something. A few years ago, all I did for gaming was play Facebook Cow Clickers for about a six-month period. I clicked on castles to make more soldiers. I clicked on turnips to…

Following the conclusion of the New Yorker Festival's Tech@Fest panel Cyber Privacy: Who Owns Your Information? (which I covered for TechRaptor here), I had about an hour to grab a bite to eat and…

It is really hard to describe the allure of No Man's Sky. For such an ambitious, overreaching game, it has certainly made a significant impact in the past year and a half with constant updates…
