As a rule, I am often skeptical of third-party accessories that claim to offer a boost in audio quality, especially when these accessories are reasonably priced. More often than not, accessories of this type will indeed created an amplified audio experience, but at the cost of heavy distortion. Other times you receive what is, in essence, no more than an advanced audio EQ - not something worth dropping any significant money on in my opinion. With these things in mind, I set my expectations fairly low for the Creative Soundblaster G3. How did it compare? Let's ...

What do you get when you mix Earthbound and Wild Arms? You might get something like Boot Hill Bounties for the Nintendo Switch! But is this Wild West rpg any good? Here is our review of Boot Hill Bounties for the Nintendo Switch. Boot Hill Bounties is a turn-based rpg set in the Wild West and it doesn’t take itself too seriously. Its humor and some of its design will remind players of the rpg classic Earthbound. The Wild West…

Animal Crossing New Horizons is not the only Switch game getting an update this week! Last night, Nintendo announced a major update for Super Mario Maker 2! Check out the video below for more info. Wow! What an update right?! I wish I still had this game. Yes, I traded this game in awhile back. I hadn’t been playing it. And now…so much new stuff is being added to it. Of course, the major update (and the best) is the…

The PS5 and the Xbox Series X are supposed to come out this year. With everything thats happening, they might not. But lets imagine that they do come out this year. Will I be buying these new consoles? Nope. Why not? The following is my personal opinion of next gen and why I’m not ready. Almost everyone seems to be excited for the PS5 and/or the Xbox Series X. I’m not excited at all. My interest is extremely low. So…

Nintendo announced today that the April free update to Animal Crossing New Horizons would be coming out on April 23rd. The update is far bigger than any expected! Check out the video below and then come back for some thoughts on it. The Animal Crossing: New Horizons free April update will add Nature Day, which includes Leif as a traveling merchant. He will sell flowers and wait for it…bushes! I’m very excited about the return of bushes. They look really…

Earthbound is one of my favorite SNES rpgs. I liked the game before I was even a rpg fan! I couldn’t stand other rpgs then, but Earthbound reached me because of its unique humor. There has never been a game exactly like Earthbound. Many have tried to be like it and many have failed. And now there is Boot Hill Bounties. Its set in the Wild West but there are aspects of it that feel like Earthbound. Boot Hill Bounties…

When released in the mid 1990's, Panzer Dragoon captivated gamers with its revolutionary visuals and controls. As one of the first 3D games available for console gamers, Panzer Dragoon allowed the player to change your views and experience the depth of the 3D world it is set in. Now, 25 years later, Panzer Dragoon: Remake has been released for modern consoles. The question in the minds of many (myself included) is how well could this type of game really function in a modern setting? 3D worlds are old news at this point, and the guided system that really just ...

When I think of underwater games, I tend to think of Bioshock. That is the best example of a game that takes place underwater. Most of the time though, underwater experiences are only part of a game and not the whole concept. Shinseki: Into the Depths is a 2D Metroidvania that takes place completely underwater. Is it any good? Here is my review of Shinseki: Into the Depths for the Nintendo Switch! Shinsekai: Into the Depths for the Nintendo Switch…

In a previous column, I talked about how I believe we are in for a lot of delays this year. But now its time to focus on the positive! What have I been playing this year so far? What do I wish I was playing? And what do I hope comes out in 2020? Let’s get to it! As you all know, thanks to my review-in progress and other articles, I have been playing a ton of Animal Crossing New…

The egg curse is over! The eggs are gone! GONE! Bunny Day is finally over. What did I think of the event? Well… Bunny Day was a mistake. Let me back up a little. I loved Bunny Day in New Leaf. In that game, it was one day and you went around finding eggs and the bunny gave you stuff. But in New Horizons, the holiday was different. Instead of one day, the event was 12 days. There was 12…
