The level of quality CD Projekt RED was able to achieve with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was simply astounding, as I said in that review. Their ability to keep that quality consistent with the 30+ hours…

When I was in eighth grade—around the age of 13 or 14—I had a fairly well-established routine. I would begrudgingly go to school, come home, do my homework, and then play Harvest Moon 64 until I had…

The concept for the latest Hitman episode seems like my dream version of a boring trip to the beach. Instead of lying on the beach, gaining a tan and not gaming, you get to visit the beach and be a…

Before I begin my review, I need to ask. Do you like the Dark Souls games? If you answered "no," this is your getting off point. Dark Souls III is the latest in the Dark Souls series, starting with …

There is no doubt that I thought The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was an incredible game, so the expectations for Hearts of Stone were pretty high. Getting it out of the way early, if you enjoyed the base…

This review comes late and it's because I wanted to give you the best insight I could. Final Fantasy is about the lore, and the 14th iteration of the franchise does not make an exception just because…

It would be a great understatement to call The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt a good RPG. While The Witcher 3 is light on outright innovations in the genre, it often twists and subverts expectations, executing…

Last year saw the release of Wolfenstein: The New Order, one of my personal games of the year. It had everything I would want from a Wolfenstein game: intense firefights, loads of nazis, and a…
