Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon are among the most popular, infamous, and memorable video games of the 1990’s. Initially released to positive reviews, it has since become a cult classic among gamers for its iconic soundtrack, voice acting, animated sequences, and gameplay. It was released on October 10, 1993 on the Phillips CD-I as part of a licensing agreement where Phillips would design the Super NES’s CD-ROM add-on. I had the privilege of speaking…

Ah, Wii Sports. When the Wii first came out, everyone was crazy for it. I remember playing the game a lot with my parents. It was also the most popular game that I showed to some friends one time too. It was a free pack-in with the Wii and it worked. And now, Nintendo Sports is coming out Friday and so of course, I’m getting all nostalgic for Wii Sports! We didn’t buy a Wii at launch. Those things were…

Over the past few weeks, our staff have had the opportunity to play through and review Super Mario 3D All Stars on the Nintendo Switch, and one of the best aspects of having so many different opinions was seeing how diverse everyone's tastes were. The guy who grew up playing Super Mario 64 thought it was the best, while the youngest on staff thought Super Mario Galaxy was the best. Well, we've decided to rank them for you, and since I've got the pen and paper, I guess it's my list that we will publish! Let's rank all the 3D Mario Adventure Games from worst to best!

With E3 and other major gaming conventions being cancelled around the globe, online events have slowly begun rolling out, making big game announcements and showing off new technologies. Last weeks announcement that Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 and 2 were being bundled together in a new package highlighted another question that has been bugging me for weeks, if not months - when it comes to available software, is the Nintendo Switch that much different than the Nintendo Wii U?

I may have written about this topic before but its worth revisiting because my favorite games of “all-time” list changes every so often. For this list I am limiting myself to one game per franchise because, honestly, most of my list would be Animal Crossing and Dragon Quest if I didn’t do that. Both of those games will have a game on this list of course. And so off we go! Starting with 10. 10. Star Wars: Knights of the…

Its my favorite time of the year again: October, which means Halloween is just around the corner. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before but it bares repeating again, I love Halloween. The candy, the spooky stuff, everything. I’m too old to go trick or treating but I still enjoy eating candy and watching spooky shows/movies this time of year. I also love playing spooky video games!
