I love a good sci-fi dystopia, so The Blind of the New World caught my eye. This original Korean language visual novel from TALESSHOP promises a romantic story set in a future with dystopian themes. It also explores interesting ideas about perception, reality, and connection. But does this story deliver? To find out we’ll have […]
Finding a good headset at a reasonable price is difficult – at least if you want a wireless one. Need it to include a microphone too? I’ve not found a huge amount of options when searching in the past. With that, I was pretty surprised to come across the Gioteck TX70 Wireless headset. Set Up […]
There was once a time where the Ninja Gaiden name was held in high regard. It was the pinnacle of the character action genre, and it, along with Devil May Cry, lay the foundations of a genre that remains popular to this day. Ninja Gaiden’s relevance was relatively short-lived, however, and it faded into obscurity. […]
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge is not a good game. It tries its hardest to add polish to the turd that was the base version of the third game, but all we are left with is a shiny poop and feelings of crushing disappointment. In a desperate attempt to reinvigorate a series that was still […]
The first Ninja Gaiden, whether that be base, Black, or Sigma, is one of the all-time greats. Stellar (for the time) visuals, unrivaled gameplay, and chock full of ninja goodness.

Where Devil May Cry had a quantifiable style and a mouthy protagonist, Ninja Gaiden brought speed, grace, and […]

I currently have 340+ hours of Diablo 3 logged on my Nintendo Switch. The gameplay loop is addictive and despite it being repetitive, the expected tedium never sets in. It’s because the mechanics marry together in a seamless manner, creating a memorable loot grind that’s exciting. So it’s no surprise that some developers strive to dabble in […]
A little over 10-years ago, the horror genre was given a right-good shakeup with the runaway success of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Guns were on the out, and defenseless protagonists facing off against unspeakable, unseeable monstrosities were in. Those tropes got pretty darn old, pretty darn fast and that’s where Layers of Fear 2 comes […]
