Right from the get-go, looking at the cover graphics of Ubisoft’s Trials Rising, you can make a good guess of what you are going to see when you first fire this game up. Cool graphics, lots of loops, jumps and racing adventure. As this game comes from a publisher which has given us epics like the Far Cry and Assassin's Creed series, I had high expectations right out of the gate. Yes, the opening cinematic and music told me there was fun and adventure to come – crack open the throttle and let's get going!

Bright and flashy bags and cases are great for some fans, but other want a more subdued look when carrying around their video game systems. PDP recognizes the market existed for both, and launched the Elite line of Nintendo Switch Accessories; thanks to Performance Design Products, we had an oppertunity to take all those products for a spin! Let's dive in!

I remember going to Gamestop at nine pm to pick up Final Fantasy X for the PS2. There was a really long line of people waiting for this game. I had never seen anything like it. I didn’t usually go to get games on the first day like that. I haven’t done that since, but it was well worth it for Final Fantasy X. It is one of my favorite Final Fantasy games. And now its coming to the Switch…

What do you get when you throw a bard into an action/platformer on the Nintendo Switch? Let’s find out in my review for The Bard’s Gold! The Bard’s Gold is an action/platformer with some rpg elements. There isn’t much of a story; Bard’s Gold focuses on its gameplay. Three difficulty settings are provided: Normal, Retro Mode, and Rogue-Lite. Normal is probably the easiest setting but does come with some drawbacks. In normal mode, the player is only given three lives…

Back in the NES days, I wasn’t into rpgs. I played a lot of platformers and action games. And occasionally, I played 8-bit adventure games too. There are three adventure games that I still think about after all these years: Deja Vu, The Uninvited, and Shadowgate. I hadn’t played these games in years, but then I saw a video that showed a collection called 8-Bit Adventure Anthology Vol. 1 that included all of them. I had to have it! So…

Striving to dominate the MMO console-shooter world, EA's newest title, Anthem, has landed. Anthem puts you in the driver's seat of 'Iron Man' style mech suits that you fly around in to dispatch hordes of enemies. However, as tends to happen when a game receives an abundance of pre-release hype (did you too receive dozens of ads on Twitch and YouTube for this game? I sure did!), the community has quickly revolted on Anthem and its creators. This begs the question, does Anthem really deserve all the hate? Or the hype it garnered before that? Let's take a look!

I had heard about Undertale for awhile but I had never played the game until it came to Nintendo Switch. I liked the game and its oddball humor. So when a new game from the same developer was announced I was interested. Of course, making the first chapter free to download and play made me want the game even more. Deltarune is the name of the game and I checked it out. Is it as good as Undertale? I haven’t…

I took a look at Anodyne earlier in the week and liked it. Now its time to review the game. Is Anodyne an adventure worth taking or should you skip this one? Anodyne is an action/adventure rpg that will remind you of the Legend of Zelda and its humor will remind you of Earthbound. However, Anodyne does have its own unique (dark) story, characters, enemies, and areas to explore. Anodyne’s retro style is very charming and its gameplay is solid.…
