News by Matt C. It’s easy to get jaded about E3’s obsession with violence, guns, blood, and gore—a trend that continues into 2018. Luckily, we have adorable games like Ooblets to balance things out, with a new trailer during the PC Gaming Show putting a spotlight on the game’s dance-based…
Read MoreNews by Lindsay M. I don’t know about y’all, but I’ve hit my E3 wall and I’m burnt out; it’s unfortunate because I’m certain Nintendo deserves my energy. Smash Bros. is a given, but I think everyone is just waiting for a new Animal Crossing. I’ve heard absolutely nothing else…
Read MoreReview by Ginny W. Little Witch Academia is a brilliant anime. It’s a total 180 aesthetic-wise from Studio Trigger’s previous fare, Kill la Kill, and it’s the epitome of harmless fun. Complete with wholesome high school clichés to rival the best of them, it plays out as if Sailor Moon…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. In a battle between a family owned restaurant and a big soulless corporation, I’d side with the homegrown business any day.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice follows a…
Read MoreWhat an eclectic bunch of games we’ve got to talk about this week! First up, we talk about Dead or Alive 6, which was announced just hours before we recorded the podcast. Then we talk about Vampires, in light of the release of Vampyr by Dontnod. And, finally, we talk…
Read MoreNews by Lindsay M. Ubisoft: the press conference consisting of a lot of music and that happens between the two that I was/am actually excited for, Square Enix and Sony. Yet here we are, so let’s see how it goes! The obvious bets are Just Dance 2019, Assassin’s Creed, and…
Read MoreNews by Harvard L. Metro has always been a black sheep when it came to the FPS genre. The original game released in 2010 and stood as a harsh counterpoint to popular design at the time: a melancholic world where guns were rickety, unreliable contraptions and proper bullets were valuable…
Read MoreNews by Lindsay M. It’s day three of four of our press conference coverage, and it’s the busiest yet! Starting things off with a hopeful bang is Square Enix; while all eyes seem to be on the developer/publisher for Final Fantasy VII, I’m actually most curious as to whether we’ll…
