Kingdom Hearts 3 – A Game for Disney Fans?
As we ramped up to the launch of Kingdom Hearts 3, I had a Twitter conversation with some media folks in Canada, and ultimately made the statement that Kingdom Hearts really isn't a game for Disney fans, arguing you have to have a better appreciation for the franchise to truly appreciate the game.

Read MoreNintendo Delays Metroid Prime 4
Nintendo of America announced today that Metroid Prime 4 has been delayed. Check out the video below for more details and after that, some thoughts from me about the delay. A Metroid Prime 4 delay is surprising but not shocking. We haven’t seen any footage of the game yet and Nintendo has been pretty silent on the game.

Even if you’ve never read any of his stuff, you know that he was a master of the horror genre. Many horror writers/artists/etc have taken inspiration from Lovecraft.
