Dorke and Ymp (PC, Steam) Review.


Sometimes a game gets cancelled.  Whether it's for the right or wrong reasons, it sends our minds going crazy with thoughts of what could've been.  You also have your zombie games that get dug up, finished, and released to the public.  This is one of those games.  This is Dorke and Ymp, a game that was supposed to have come out for the SNES back in the day.  Should it have stayed in its grave? Find out in this exciting review of Dorke and Ymp for the PC.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)

16 Classic Games That Are Coming To Steam. RETRO! REMAKE! REMASTER!


There's a lot on Steam.  Sadly, a lot of the good stuff is buried underneath all of the cheap cash grab games.  There's also a lot of good stuff coming soon to Steam.  This list will cover some of those said upcoming releases.  What's even better is that all of this stuff is retro gaming related.  Here are 16 classic games that are coming to Steam.  Think of reading this list as watching an old gaming VHS full of trailers and a cheesy voiceover. Those are what inspired me to write this list afterall.

Note: Release dates are based on what's written on their Steam pages.  Also, I have included remasters and remakes, not just straight up ports of old games.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full article.)

*Note: Poochie was an infamous character on The Simpsons who was famous for c*ckblocking Itchy and Scratchy from getting to the fireworks factory.  DON'T BE A POOCHIE!

Disney Classics Removed From Steam, But Not Impossible To Officially Obtain.


Out of all the games to receive the delist treatment on Steam, I did not expect them to be classic Disney games.  The Jungle Book, Aladdin, and The Lion King have all been delisted from Steam's shop.  Why only these games and none of the other Disney titles?  I'm not sure.  The only other connection that these games had is that they were old PC games that used the DosBox emulator.  So maybe that has something to do with it, but that's only lite speculation.  I'm sure that there's a better reason out there.  Anyway, the point is that these games are gone and there's no way for people to buy them ever again... Or is there? (Click on "Read More" to read the full article.)

Monster Puzzle (Nintendo Switch) Review.

Hush little monster, don't you cry.  Emerald Rangers has a new Nintendo Switch game review from Retrokai.  Now will this game be a hit, or will it be a little shhh.  The only way to find that out, click on "Read More" to feed this trout...  Yeah, I couldn't find anything else better to rhyme with "out".  I guess that I could've said scout, but I like the idea of being a fish better.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full article.)

Wordlase (Steam) Review


If you are a fan of word based puzzle games then here is a game that you may want to be aware of.  This is Wordlase and it was released on Steam.  Yup, no deep intro here, although I can already tell you that this isn't a very deep game.  Will it be good though?  Find out by clicking on "Read More" to read the full review. Yee-Haw!

Depression and Gaming: Five Games That Help to Calm Me Down. Uncensored.



You know, depression sucks, it really fucking sucks.  Fucking abusive humans, life, internet rivals, nasty flashbacks of my childhood in Tasmania, nasty flashbacks of when I was nearly murdered a few years ago, annoying trends, shitty ex-co-workers (who are probably cumming in their pants just from reading that), ignorant people that just tell me to just "get over it" without having a slight understanding of what depression is, all this really stresses the fuck out of me.  It's no surprise that I suffer from anxiety, depression, and PTSD.  I really find it hard to relax but if there's one thing that does calm me down, it is video games.  Despite certain people (mainly doctors, therapists, and teachers) telling me that playing games won't do anything (those people are fucking wrong by the way) it gives me a calm sense of tranquility.  Something that makes me briefly forget about the stresses of the world and all of the fucking bullshit that I've been through in life.  Okay, obviously not all video games calm me down but there are a bunch of games that I go to for the feeling of heaven in this hell that's called Earth.  Hi, I'm James T... No, I'm my real self today.  Hi, I'm Samuel James Absolom and these are five games that calm me down when I feel depressed. (Click on "Read More" to read the full article.)

RICO (Nintendo Switch) Review.


No! This isn't a game based on the former WWE superstar, Rico.  This is the action packed FPS game released by Rising Star Games...  Huh? This game got released by a big publisher? That's a genuine surprise.  UGH! I gotta stop leaking out about how I feel about a game before the review even starts.  Anyway, this is RICO for the Nintendo Switch.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)

Metagal (PS4, Vita) Review.


Yup, it's my third gaming review in a row about a game published by Ratalaika Games.  One of their games was okay and the other is a hidden gem.  (Don't sue me, Metal Jesus Rocks.)  Either way, this company is keeping the Vita alive.  While I thank them for that, they aren't free from having their releases criticized…  I mean, honestly reviewed.  (Criticized sounds like I'm about to unfairly bash the games head in.)  Today's game sounds like a really good one.  This is Metagal for the PS4 and Vita.  Yes, I can already spoil that this game has two easy to get platinum trophies.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)

Super Weekend Mode (PS4, Vita) Review.


Super Weekend Mode.  That's the name of the game in this review.  The name doesn't give off any clue as to what this game could be.  Thank goodness that I am here with a full on review of the game.  Enjoy! (Click on "Read More" to read the full review of the game.)

Peasant Knight (PS4, Vita) Review.


It's knight time and I'm not just using that for a cheeky pun, it really is knight time.  For you see, today's game is about a heroic knight out to save the land.  This is Peasant Knight for the Sony PlayStation 4 and Vita.  This game did come out on other systems too, but I covered the Sony release which probably isn't all that much different from the other ports.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)

North (PS4) Review


Time to pack up your backpacks because we are heading north.  Okay, that was a lame, so let's try that again.  Time to.. Nope, still got nothing.  F**k it! I'll just go straight with this intro... STRAIGHT NORTH! Yup, today I'll be taking a look at yet another game by Sometimes You.  The same company that published Blood Waves, Drowing, Planet RIX-13, and the terrabad Cyber City 2157.  This time I take a look at North for the PS4.  Will North be good or bad? Who cares! It's a Sometimes You game! It's going to be a game with something interesting to be said regardless.  (Excluding Blood Waves.) (Click on "Read More" to read the full article.)

Planet RIX-13 (Playstation Vita) Review


Yup, it's another review of another game for that system that everyone (but Sony) loves.  This is Planet RIX-13 for the Sony PlayStation Vita.  A game that's also done by our favorite hit or miss publisher, Sometimes You.  I always look forward to cover their games because you have no idea what games that they'll release.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)

Pop 'n Music Portable (PSP) Review.


I've been a fan of Pop 'n Music for a long time now.  It's one of my favorite rhythm series of all time.  The downside is that it's also quite an expensive series to collect, they typically don't get released outside of Japan.  Once you've managed to get a hold of the game and a console that can run it, you'll need to buy a special controller for it.  However, there are some cheaper games in the series and today I'll be reviewing one of them.  This is Pop 'n Music Portable for the Sony PlayStation Portable.  (Click on "Read More" to read the full review.)
