Review – Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader
Star Wars and I have a rocky relationship. Had, I should say, it's over now. But back in the day, I was all about that galaxy far, far away. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader hit before disillusionment set in, but how will I look on it today?

Review – Goldeneye 007 (N64)
Goldeneye 007 is a certifiable classic. It was a phenomenon back when it released. However, for all the things it did extremely well, a lot of it hasn't aged favourably. If any game needs an HD remaster, it's this one. Unfortunately, it looks like we just barely missed out on one.

Review – Actraiser
Having reviewed the remake, Actraiser: Renaissance, I decided to return to the original. Not for comparison's sake, exactly, but because you can never get enough Actraiser. It's a mix of playing god and hitting things with a sword. It's like if SimCity had segments where you play as Michael Myers.

Review – Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012
When the Gods of Quality forsook the Twisted Metal series, others attempted to take up the torch. One was Rogue Trip, a game by the original developers of the Twisted Metal series. But rather than do Twisted Metal but-a-bit-different, they instead decided to try something new. And new it is.

Review – KukkoroDays
Oh, hey! More perv stuff! Not sure what kind of mood I was in back in those days, but I'm sure it was less horny and more interested in doing something different. But, hey, at least I bumped into some actually decent ecchi romance stories. Those were some good times.

Review – Game Dev Story
Kairosoft games somehow manage to cover a large variety of subjects while still following a pretty strict formula. It's an addicting formula, and that's maybe part of the problem. Nonetheless, I'm still endeared by them, and feel the need to play their games occasionally. It all started with Game Dev Story.

Review – TroubleDays
One of my favourite stories to tell about myself is the time I bought a bunch of ecchi games on a Steam Holiday Sale, and the store algorithm immediately jumped to the conclusion that I was a pervert. Is it correct? Do I play these games ironically or do I actually get some titillation from them? That’s none of your…

Review – Retro Game Challenge
If you consider yourself a retro gamer, then Game Center CX might be up your alley, since it's a celebration of old games. It even, appropriately, got its own video games, with the first being localized as Retro Game Challenge. It's a unique way of capturing the bygone era.

Review – Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Me and Animal Crossing go way back. I remember drooling over it when it was still known as Animal Forest in Japan. I dreamt of a game like The Sims, but cuter and with more to do outside the home. That’s not what I got, but I fell in love with it all the same. It’s a game series I…

Review – Luigi’s Mansion 3
I’ve always been a fan of Luigi. Ever since his high jumps nearly broke Super Mario Bros. 2. When I’d play Super Mario World alone, I’d start a two-player mode and kill off Mario so I could just play as Luigi. So, golly, I was so on board with Luigi’s Mansion back when it dropped alongside the Gamecube in 2001.…
