Review by Matt S. I bought myself a copy of Hollow because the trailer on the eShop was positively classy. The developer made something with genuine production values, what with a quality cover of “Mad World” forming the soundtrack and all. Yeah, it looked like it was a clone of…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. For me, writing about games isn’t just about writing about games. It’s a calling. It’s an all-consuming passion. I started writing about video games right back when I had a Game Boy Advance and there was a site called GBACentral. I loved my GBA (it was…
Read MoreReview by Tyler T. Released in 2007, the original Pac-Man Championship Edition was one of the early Xbox Live Arcade success stories. Not only did it manage to update the classic Pac-Man formula in a way that made if feel hip and fresh, but it also stayed true to its…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Fantasy Hero is trashy. It was trashy on its original release on the PlayStation Vita, and on the very long list of games I’d like to see released on the Nintendo Switch, this one is nowhere close to it. But, the Switch is the “in” console…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. The Switch has its fair share of top-down shoot-em-ups, but most take heavy influence from the arcade philosophy of design: three lives, high scores and punishing difficulty.
