Last year, I was completely enchanted by NHL 17. So much so that I named it one of my games of the year, and the best sports game of 2017. The additions that EA Vancouver brought to the game worked for me, and I could not stop singing its praises all winter long. But now that the 2017-18 NHL season is upon us, EA Sports has delivered a new version, NHL 18, and my personal fears that this new game…  Read More

Nintendo has, in recent years, made a push to diversify their characters, and they are no longer shy about farming them out to other developers to create something new and exciting. Pokken Tournament DX for the Switch (and previously for the Wii U) is a good example, as Pokemon characters in a straight up fighting game by the creators of Tekken worked out well. Now, the most iconic of all Nintendo characters, Mario, has been lent out to Ubisoft, and…  Read More

There have been a few feudal period pieces released over the last couple of years. 2016’s Aragami, and the excellent Nioh which released this year immediately spring to mind. Each sporting their own unique gameplay style that lend well to the period they are representing. Developer MegaFun Games enter the ring with Hidden Dragon Legend, and the results are anything but. Hidden Dragon Legend starts off well enough. Players control Lu as he is waking up in a prison complex,…  Read More

The NBA season is right around the corner, but fans are able to get some NBA action before it gets here with 2K Sports' annual basketball simulator, NBA 2K18, and this year's title packs a bit more of a punch. The animation system was overhauled in a big way to reflect players stats more accurately than ever and this year's MyCareer mode is more interactive than ever with the Neighborhood, an all new open area that integrates the Park, Pro-Am and player…  Read More

Windjammers was originally released, by the now defunct developer Data East, for the Neo Geo game system and arcade back in 1994. An odd game that I would describe as the love child of Street Fighter 2 and air hockey, I missed out on Windjammers back when it originally released. Since then I had heard about it from friends who collect classic games and was excited when I found out developer DotEmu was bringing it back for PS4 and Vita.…  Read More

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite has arrived! Many fighting game fans, like myself, have waited patiently for the last six years since the previous installment Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 hit in 2011. UMvC3 was one of my all-time favorite fighting games, combining all the knowledge gained in the 15 years Capcom had been making the comic book and video game mash-ups. Was the wait worth it? Will it make up for the subpar Street Fighter V we saw last year?…  Read More

   September 25, 2017
There’s always been a stigma surrounding the Senran Kagura games. I’ve played Estival Versus and Shinovi Versus in the past, not because I was necessarily interested in the games but because I had always been curious what the appeal was, and they turned out to be a lot of fun! For those unfamiliar, the Senran Kagura are brawler games that follow a large group of female ninja that are all buxom women. As players fight, more and more of the…  Read More
