More Thoughts From Me #265: Closing Down the (Digital) Shop
This week we got rumors that the PS3/PSP/Vita digital stores will be shutting down this year. Usually I do not report or even talk about rumors. That said, the closing of those shops will happen sooner or later! What do I think of digital stores closing? Let’s dig into it. Its always tough when digital store fronts close down. We all know why this happens: digital stores take up server space for companies. They cost money to keep up and…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #261: Bravely or Default
Recently, I finally finished the Bravely Default 2 Final demo. And I have some thoughts on the game’s battle system! It took me awhile to finish the Bravely Default 2 demo. I had stopped playing it for a bit and then went back to it, stopped, went back it, etc. I liked the demo but I found it pretty hard. But then, I saw a video that Nintendo put out that explained the battle system and I finally got it!…
Read MoreProject Triangle Strategy Demo First Impressions
During yesterday’s Nintendo Direct, Square Enix revealed a brand new game! It a strategy rpg that has a working title of Project Triangle Strategy. Not only that but a demo was released for the game!

Read MoreMore Thought From Me Special Edition: A Really Good Direct
Nintendo just had their Nintendo Direct and it was really good. It wasn’t mind blowing, like I thought it would be, but there were four moments where I freaked out and one where I laughed. I want to focus on those things and less so on the other stuff. Spoiler Warning if you haven’t seen the Direct yet (I’m putting it below. So go check it out) Nintendo’s 50 minute Direct today was packed with a lot of stuff. I…

Bravely Default 2 is coming out later this month for the Nintendo Switch. Check out this new trailer from Nintendo about the game’s battle system! Bravely Default 2 will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on February 26th, 2021. The battle system in Bravely Default is very strategic.

Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #252: Happy Holidays!
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! This time I share my thoughts about this year in video games and just how lucky video game fans were compared to, oh say movie fans or tv show fans. Time to reflect and hug your video games or you know, thank a video game developer. Well, we made it to the holidays. Its been a bad year. I think most of us can agree that 2020 sucked and we never want to see it again.…
Read MoreWorms Rumble Review
Ah yes, Worms. That beloved tactical franchise from the early-to-mid 90s. You remember – with the sheep and the “Oh dear”. Know what it needs? To become an ACTION-PACKED BATTLE ROYALE, BABY. I don’t know if that conversation ever took place, but whatever the thought process, meet Worms Rumble. It’s a multiplayer-only 2D-shooter, taking some of the more familiar elements of Worms and repackaging them for the new generation of gaming. It’s the biggest change in tone since 2003’s Worms…
