OVERCOOKED 2 / STATE OF DECAY – DAYBREAK [Mini-Reviews]: Zombie Bread.

Overcooked 2 is a campy, fun game for the casual gamer, or one whose style is more "I play Candy Crush on my phone" than "hardcore console bro-dude". Playing both this game and its 2016 predecessor gave me flashbacks to playing Diner Dash on my phone while I was supposed to be at work. The …

NBA 2K19 [Review]: The King & I.

I'm usually pretty quick when it comes to the NBA 2K review handles, but not this year--you can blame a certain webcrawler for that.

MARVEL’S SPIDER-MAN [Review]: Mister Positive.

Summer of 1995, I’m 9-years old in my room in front of my hand-me-down CRT TV, turning on my Sega Genesis. TLC’s "Waterfalls" is playing on Power 106 and I see the title screen of Spider-Man and Venom: Separation Anxiety appear on the screen. I’m just as pumped playing it for the 100th time as …

SHADOW OF THE TOMB RAIDER [Review]: Exploring the Killer Instinct.

Tomb Raider games, and more specifically Square-Enix’s Lara Croft trilogy, have alway had a place in my heart thanks to their Indiana Jones-styled exploration and oft-brilliant characterization of Lara. Shadow of the Tomb Raider lands a slam dunk with a beautiful South America portrayal that truly does the trilogy a service. If you haven’t watched …
