    I should start by saying that Iā€™ve never really been that big a fan of Star Fox games, and have only played (and not to completion) the Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 releases. But despite the mixed reviews, I was still curious to try this out. Iā€™m afraid I didnā€™t have a lot of fun…

    Iā€™ve been wanting this card game for ages, but I never picked it up because itā€™s pricey, especially when I was in Tokyo and looking at import prices. Thatā€™s why I was pretty excited when I found out that they were planning on making an iOS version (and I think itā€™s also on Android and…

  • Star Wars Battlefront

    I remember having a blast with the open beta they did before the release of the game, but as much as I enjoyed that, I just couldnā€™t justify picking it upon release, as I didnā€™t think that just multiplayer would keep me engaged in the long run. Iā€™m finally getting to play it now, and…

  • Dragon Quest Heroes

    Iā€™ve been very curious about this game, with the main thing attracting me to it being just how beautiful it looks – to have those colorful Toriyama designs with crisp HD graphics was enough to draw me in. Iā€™m not really into the musou games, but I liked Hyrule Warriors enough that I figured I…

  • Overwatch

    So after having a blast playing Overwatch during two open beta periods, I was pretty happy to get the full game upon release, and have been playing fairly regularly since (although Iā€™ve taken a break during the past week to play some other games). Everything I wrote in those posts for the open betas stands…

    I got this game as part of the current Humble Eye Candy Bundle (ends in 3 days), and boy am I digging it. The idea is that itā€™s an RPG that plays around with RPG eras, and so youā€™ll be playing with it looking like an NES-era Zelda game, but then youā€™ll also experience a…

  • Tropico 5

    Iā€™ve always been curious about the Tropico games, but have never played one until now (thanks, PlayStation Plus). The sim genre is admittedly not one I get very excited about, but I have had fun with some in the past – I never go really deep with them though. Iā€™ve just gone through the tutorials…

  • Switch Galaxy Ultra

    Also in the PlayStation Plus lineup this month is Switch Galaxy Ultra, which from the screenshots looked pretty awesome to me. Although it looks like a hover racer, itā€™s a bit more limited than that, and instead plays more like the grinding levels in a Ratchet game. I havenā€™t spent that much time with it,…

    On top of all the games Iā€™ve been able to play courtesy of theĀ ā€œFriends of Nintendoā€ Humble Bundle, itā€™s also the start of a new month, which means new games from PlayStation Plus. I was quite looking forward to playing Table Top Racing – I sure love me some racing – and after putting in…

  • Overwatch (Open Beta 2)

    Another open beta for Overwatch, and yet again, I find myself having such a blast playing this game, even though multiplayer online shooters are not usually really my thing. I just love the look of the game so much, and the diverse lineup of characters are just so much fun, and I always have a…
