(this is a copied and pasted review from Steam on the game; it’s one I mentioned a while back with game preservation and remembering old titles, so I figured I’d go ahead and post it here too) There’s this term that gets thrown around when it comes to some games, this idea of the “hiddenContinue reading “Shadow Madness”

Top 10 Books, 2022
While I don’t post many book reviews up on this site, I am a voracious reader (kinda shouldn’t come as a big surprise, with the doctorate in English). I do put up reviews on my Amazon account, which has some links here. Still, tis the time for end of the year lists, and the bookContinue reading “Top 10 Books, 2022”
Persona 5: Philosophy and Sexual Assault – Depth in Games and the Problems of Sexuality
Persona 5 is every bit the amazing, once in a generation video game that everyone says it is, and if you have any interest in playing it or any JRPG ever, you should give it a try. 10 a completely enthralling and engaging experience nearly from its beginning to the end of its 100+ hourContinue reading “Persona 5: Philosophy and Sexual Assault – Depth in Games and the Problems of Sexuality”
The Bad Guys
Been a bit since we’ve seen one of these, eh? 2022 has been a good year for video games, particularly if you like massive RPGs and SRPGs, like this writer (who is currently in the process of finishing Persona 5, and about halfway through Tactics Ogre, so reviews are on the way!). The Bad GuysContinue reading “The Bad Guys”
Tormented Souls
(Note/Warning: Tormented Souls is definitely an adult game with various horror themes; I’ll try to avoid getting too graphic in the pictures or description, but some of it may seep through) Tormented Souls wants to emulate the old third person horror games from the Playstation days, back when the first three Resident Evil games, SilentContinue reading “Tormented Souls”
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne – HD Remaster
I have never played a Shin Megami Tensei game. I have played a few of the spin-off games: both Persona 3 and 4, as well as the two Devil Survivor games that released for the DS, so I am somewhat familiar with a lot of how the Shin Megami Tensei series works. Most importantly, I’mContinue reading “Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne – HD Remaster”
Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure
Rhapsody is one of those games I have a pretty strong memory of going in. I was at Hastings, a sort of regional chain that offered game rentals while also selling various media (CDs, books, games, movies, etc.). This was during the Playstation 1’s heyday, and I was looking for something to rent. I’m assumingContinue reading “Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure”
Chip n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers – Fun Film, Mixed Message
Like many a nostalgic cartoon viewer, I had mixed feelings after seeing all the trailers for the Chip n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers film. I hadn’t exactly grown up watching the Disney Afternoon (I was a Turtles and X-Men kid), but I do recall what those shows were like. I’d also watched them fairly recently, havingContinue reading “Chip n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers – Fun Film, Mixed Message”
Kirby: Super Star Saga
If you check the Nintendo Online account right now, you’ll find that Kirby: Super Star Saga, happens to be this month’s mission. That works quite well for me, as it happens to be one of the retro titles I’ve played recently while I was waiting for sales (they have now happened and new games shouldContinue reading “Kirby: Super Star Saga”
