Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze

Ah, Donkey Kong Country. My first ever Nintendo console experience, and one of the very first memories of video games I have, is of the original Donkey Kong Country for the SNES. It was daycare and we were only ever able to get as far as we could before the console was switched off and…

Bad Samaritan

David Tennant is so good at playing bad characters, isn’t he? Honestly, I think one of his most well-known roles is the tenth Doctor, but when I think about what he’s been in other than that, most of the things are bad characters. Barty Crouch Jr. (Goblet of Fire), bad. Kilgrave (Jessica Jones), bad. D.I.…

The Path

What a web we weave. I recently watched all of what is currently out of The Path and damn, let me tell you, that’s some good stuff. In case you don’t know, The Path follows a group of people that are involved in a fictional religious movement called Meyerism, after Steven Meyer, the guy who…

Mario Party: The Top 100

I’m still hoping for a proper Mario Party title to hit the Switch, but in the meantime, Nintendo released this. Mario Party is not something I’ve played a whole bunch of, at least in the years after the N64. It’s not from lack of want, but let’s face it, Mario Party is something best played…

Kirby Star Allies

Last week, I talked about a 20-30 hour open world game with lots of possibilities and fun to be had. Kirby Star Allies is not…quite the same thing. I like Kirby games. I haven’t played all of them. I probably haven’t really played half of them. But the ones I’ve played, I have enjoyed. From…

Super Mario Odyssey

Super duper late, but I did play Super Mario Odyssey. Short story: I loved it! Mario is not a character I feel compelled to play all the games of. It was mentioned to me that I sure own a lot of Mario games for not caring for him as a character. The answer to that…

Golf Story – In Progress

I sort of fell off this train a bit. Whoops. Things got away from me. A lot has changed and has come out. I will probably try to address some of the larger releases and things that has happened between last posting back in September and this one, but for now, I’ll just talk about…

Preacher Season 1

I had heard good things about Preacher, and seen some images and Gifs from it on Tumblr, but I don’t have cable, and I just hadn’t bothered checking into it until a few weekends ago when I was alone in the house. I just decided to go for it because, after all, if I stay…

Sonic Mania

I didn’t get to play much Sonic when I was a kid. I didn’t own a Genesis and I didn’t have many friends who owned one either. I think I had one friend who did, but we mostly played N64 games instead. I remembered always wanting to play them, and when I got a chance,…

The Hitman’s Bodyguard

They could’ve called this Deadpool and Nick Fury squabble and it would’ve been nearly the same. And that’s not a bad thing. Well, that’s not quite fair. Michael, Ryan Reynolds’ character, is way more straight-laced and uptight than Deadpool, which I realize is not saying much. Most everyone fits that description. But while Deadpool revels…
