• Culdcept the First - Xbox Review

    Culdcept the First (also attributed as Culdcept the First Saturn Tribute) is a very fun game, that does show its age. This is basically a re-issue of the 1997 Sega Saturn game that mashes together deckbuilding (think Magic: The Gathering) and boardgames (such as Monopoly).

  • NBA 2K27 - PlayStation 5 Review

    With these annual seasonal renewals of the sports season comes the related video games as well, and the question reviewers such as myself always face is this: Is this year’s game worth purchasing one year after the last one? My answer? Yes, absolutely. NBA fans are going to almost certainly enjoy NBA 2K27.

  • Midnight Moments - PC Steam Review

    Midnight Moments is a cozy cyberpunk diorama-building game that is stunning. Unlike games that require you to complete quests or take out assailants or even solve challenging puzzles, this one only requires one thing: imagination.

  • Isle of Reveries - PC Review

    Isle of Reveries is a top down 2D action adventure game that made my nostalgia for old school Zelda games flare up really hard. A good blending of puzzle, exploration, and combat, Isle of Reveries is a wonderful title to experience inside and out.

  • Outbound - PC Review

    Let me tell you about this cozy game my daughter and I are playing together called Outbound. Now, I've been following this game from the initial Kickstarter back in April 2025 to its full release in May 2026. The best Mother's Day gift for myself and my first ever collector's edition in a physical copy!

  • Dread Delusion - Xbox Series X|S Review

    Today we’re looking at what has rapidly become an absolute favorite in the open-world RPG genre for me. An interesting story, memorable NPCs, stunning visuals, and a setting absolutely dripping with flavor, Dread Delusion sets its tone immediately and sticks with it.

  • NHL 27 - PS5 Review

    ...and I have been playing NHL games since. It didn't matter whether it was EA or another game like 2K in the 2000s; I loved hockey games and still do, but is NHL 27 a step in the right direction?

  • Asdivine Knot - PS5 Review

E3 - Nintendo Gaming Thoughts...

I guess I just was not feeling this year's showing by Nintendo. Truth be told, I have been a little down on their last few, so I suppose this was seen as a safer, cheaper way of presenting what is to come - but it felt a little like bowing out to me as well.

Ni no Kuni - Wrath of the White Witch - PS3 Review

Enchanting.

That is really the primary adjective I came away with after spending about eighty hours with Level-5's Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch for the PlayStation 3.

Gaming thoughts... Holiday Games - Part 2

So, I posed the question a bit ago asking if any game-related content was acquired (or received) for the holidays. We used to have really, really small Christmas Days several years ago. I was going to school, making minimum wage with some kids - not a recipe for lots of presents. Since then? We try to spoil a bit more around the holidays - especially since our younger 2 have birthdays right around the holiday. We did really well for the munchkins on that front I think (yay for my promotion earlier this year and a nice Christmas bonus from work, plus my wife doing well with her online business), so here it is:

My oldest is not much of a gamer, but she loves the Kingdom Hearts series, so I picked up the Game Boy Advance game for her DS Lite, since she has never gotten to play that particular game. She has also gotten interested in the storylines of Bioshock and Zelda titles due to her girlfriend who is a big gamer and loves both series of games. As such, I picked up Bioshock 1 for the PS3 and Zelda: Twilight Princess for her. She's also quite fond of the Sims games, so I snagged her Sims 3 for her DS.


My youngest still loves Pokemon above all, so I have some cards coming to her on that front. She is also a huge fan of Little Big Planet. I got her part 2 - though as a birthday present (her birthday is 2 days after Christmas). I also nabbed her Lego Batman (she loves the Lego games). On top of that? Well, with the fact her birthday is right next to Christmas, she is getting spoiled a bit, with a green DSi, a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game, Pokemon Black and Epic Mickey.





My son's the biggest gamer of the group - by far. For his birthday, which is in a couple of weeks, I'm going to set him up with a Steam account, and probably get him a couple of games for it. Knowing him, they'll be FPS like Left for Dead 2 or killing floor. He knows this is coming. I picked him up a title on Black Friday he wanted too, but since he is the only member of my house to actually ever read my blog? Can't post that just yet here (even though he very rarely reads it, I don't want to chance it). I'll reveal that one in a couple of weeks. Odd are by then, he'll have picked up one or two more games with his birthday and Christmas cash (my guess? he'll pick up Modern Warfare 3 on the PS3).

For Christmas itself though, he got Battlefield 3, Batman Arkham City, Chrono Trigger for the DS, Golden Sun for the DS and Bioshock 2 for the PS3.


Any fun games or toys to report from readers? :)
