The jump to 3D was challenging for many franchises – but when I finally got my Dreamcast in high school, I loved how fast and awesome Sonic felt in Sonic Adventure! With Sonic Forces and Sonic Mania approaching for Switch (and other consoles) I thought it would be fun to revisit this old favourite. Boy… Read More Dreamcast/Gamecube Review – Sonic Adventure
In grade 2, I played this game for the first time. It was awesome – blood, guts, and multiplayer mayhem! My brother and I played the hell out of this game – and I even set up a little tournament with my friends! It has been years since I have played this game (although I… Read More SNES Review – Mortal Kombat II

Since I haven’t reviewed many racing games from the NES era I thought I would give Rad Racer a try – knowing full well that it probably wasn’t going to… Read More NES Review – Rad Racer

One of my favs from the group was a game called Shadow of the Ninja. This weeks’ review is about this… Read More NES Review – Shadow of the Ninja
Super Metroid was always one of my favourite games, but I couldn’t really see how they could possibly bring that amazing formula of action, adventure, and exploration into the 3D world without messing it up. The day finally came and I picked Metroid Prime up in high school as soon as it was released – and proceeded to power… Read More Gamecube / Wii Review – Metroid Prime
