I started playing Final Fantasy 15 last week and…quickly stopped playing it. I haven’t gotten back to it yet. I plan to go back to playing it but just haven’t done it yet. What did I think of what I played? Why haven’t I gone back to playing it yet? Let’s take a look at Final Fantasy 15! When the song Stand by Me started playing in Final Fantasy 15, I knew I was in for a very different FF…

SuperMash – Release Trailer
SuperMash will be coming to the Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One this May! Check out the release trailer for the game and then please come back for some thoughts on it. SuperMash is such a unique looking game. I love the whole idea of taking two genres, say rpg and shooter, and randomly melding them into one unique game. And you can share what you got with others via a special code! SuperMash is a different kind of game…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #219: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Spoilers
WARNING: If you haven’t finished Final Fantasy 7 Remake, do not read this article. There will be SPOILERS, especially for the ending of the game. I finished FF7 recently and I want to talk about the game. What did I think of it overall? What did I think of the ending? I liked Final Fantasy 7 Remake a lot. I just wanted to get that out of the way. I think its a great game. However… Yes, there are some…
Read MoreGears Tactics Review
Officially dropping on PC tomorrow, Gears Tactics is a turn-based tactical shooter set in the Gears of War universe. With the rest of the games in the franchise sporting a heavy focus on fast-paced action, it will be quite interesting to see how a slower, turn-based and more cerebral approach to the Gears universe plays out. I certainly hope that the wide variety of weaponry available in the previous games will be a key part of Tactics because, let's face it, Gears' success was built on a tower of chainsawed grubs. Let’s dive right in!
Read MoreQuarantine Gaming – Hotline Miami Collection Impressions
The world (and everyone on it) is in a really weird place right now. We can't go to the movies and catch the newest movies, TV programming has pretty much either stopped anything new or is filled with bad quality webcam video of people working from their home. Kids can't go to school or play with their friends...and video games are being delayed indefinitely. So what is a troubled gamer to do? Tackle that backlog and play some indie games, and that's exactly what I am doing.

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.

Of course, the major update (and the best) is the…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #218: I’m Not Ready For Next Gen
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…
Read MoreShinsekai: Into the Depths Review
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…
