Although I tend to play a lot more active genres than strategy, even I’ll acknowledge it’s an important and satisfying genre on occasion. But many strategy games are so hardcore that you end up more stressed after playing than before. Which is why we put together this list. Though everything on this list is some…
Full Metal Schoolgirl Review – IGN
First impressions matter, right? Full Metal Schoolgirl throws you into its third-person shooter action shortly after a blazing fast anime-inspired opening to the tune of a J-rock banger. It immediately establishes its irreverent attitude and goofy anti-capitalist satire in a futuristic world where robots are exploited and referred to as “the working dead” – and…

What the 2025 Hand That Rocks the Cradle does better and worse than the 1992 original
American domestic life was fraught back in 1992, at least judging by the sheer number of stalker-thrillers hitting theaters.

8BitDo Xbox Arcade Controller Is Badass & Budget Friendly – Review
At first glance, the 8BitDo Arcade Controller is an intimidating device, a flat black block bristling with buttons laid out in a pattern that looks less designed for fingers and more like an archaic form of Braille. But as my fingers came into contact, it only took a second for them to find their natural…

Ninja Gaiden 4 Review
Every time I sit down to write my Ninja Gaiden 4 review, something funny happens: I find myself playing the game for an hour or so instead. Whoops. It’s funny, because at first, I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the game. It’s been such a good year for Ninja Gaiden fans, though, to be…
D&D might finally redeem my favorite ‘bad’ Forgotten Realms adventure
As a big Forgotten Realms fan, I’m pretty excited about the November release of the Heroes of Faerûn and Adventures in Faerûn books. I don’t expect either to eclipse my gold standard, 3e’s Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, however, one of the Forgotten Realms Ultimate Bundle’s digital expansions, Netheril’s Fall, has my complete attention. Teased as…
