Trials of Mana Demo First Impressions
Square Enix has released a demo of Trials of Mana for the Nintendo Switch (its also on the PS4). I played the demo on the Switch and now I have some thoughts on it!

I have tried out two of the characters but haven’t finished their sections yet. Each character starts off in a…

A lot of cool looking indie games were shown this time. Which ones did I like the best? For me, the biggest standout was Summer in Mara. It looked like a cross between the Legend of Zelda and the new Animal Crossing! I absolutely want to play…

Read MoreOne Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows Review
As a fan of the show by the same name, as well as a long time Mortal Kombat enthusiast, I could not wait to get started playing One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows.

Let’s dive right in and see what awaits us in One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows!

Read MoreOri and the Will of the Wisps Review
Ori and the Will of the Wisps, available as a part of Game Pass or $30 to own, is a fantastic game that’s worth whichever price of entry you choose. During the review period, it was clear that there were some issues with performance, and while Microsoft assured us these would be addressed with a day one patch, they still recommended that the game be played on an Xbox One X or Windows 10. Not one to do what I’m…
Read MorePowerA Wireless GameCube Controller
We've reviewed a number of PowerA products over the past few months, but just after Christmas, our good friends sent us a special Nintendo Switch Lite carrying case (review) and a GameCube style controller. In general, third party controllers - even those licenced by Nintendo - can be incredibly hit or miss, but I won't bury the lead on this one - the PowerA Wireless GameCube Controller is fantastic; it's so good, in fact, that I went out a bought a second one!
