I am going to be up-front with this. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is my favourite game ever made. I have been beating it annually for years and have gotten so good at it that I beat it in one sitting without dying in a couple of hours. It was the… Read More SNES Review – Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
My favourite fighting series of all time is Soulcalibur, with Soulcalibur II on Gamecube being the highlight as you can be Link! What I didn’t realize was that before Soulcalibur was actually a sequel to Soul Edge – an arcade and Playstation weapon-based fighting game. I recently sat down for an afternoon with the game… Read More PSX Review – Soul Blade

Growing up I had briefly played the original but never played it start to finish… Read More NES / GBA Review – Final Fantasy 1&2: Dawn of Souls
Super Mario 3 – I have beaten this game annually for the past 10 years with my twin brother.
