Shadow Labyrinth caught my eye for a few reasons, but the biggest one? It’s a spiritual follow-up to one of my favorite episodes from Secret Level.

While it doesn’t reinvent … Read More

I still remember the moment I first saw the original Death Stranding reveal back during E3 2016. That intriguing reveal trailer, the cryptic symbols, Norman Reedus cradling a baby on a beach.

A tour of the console’s inner workings wrapped in cute Nintendo polish? Turns out, it’s a bit of all three. A mash-up of mini-games, tech demos, and console feature spotlights meant to … Read More

When Hogwarts Legacy first dropped in 2023, it was an immediate hit—selling millions in a matter of weeks. As someone who’s been knee-deep in the Harry Potter universe since I first experienced the films and the books as a kid, I couldn’t wait to explore a fully open-world Hogwarts game. I loved the game when I played it on the PS5 at … Read More

I completely missed the original Raidou Kuzunoha duology back on the PlayStation 2. I’m no newcomer to the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series, but Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army somehow slipped past me back in the day. So when ATLUS announced Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army for PS5, I was pretty excited that … Read More

Remember when the wizards at CD Projekt Red got The Witcher 3 running on the Nintendo Switch? Well they’ve done it again, this time with 2020’s Cyberpunk 2077. Before i’d had the chance to get hand’s on, I never thought I’d be able to say that Cyberpunk 2077 runs great on a Nintendo handheld. In fact, it doesn’t just run—it shines. After … Read More

When I saw the first trailer for Date Everything!, It definitely had me interested.
