Almost Famous is a movie I not only love, but was important to me in my formative years, and my life in general.

He has to cover an up and coming rock band during what critic Lester Bangs (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) calls the dying days … Continue reading Almost Famous Review
It is probably not something I should admit to anyone aside a therapist, but I grew up absolutely loving the hell out of late 70s/early 80s hard boiled revenge movies such as Death Wish and the like. Now as an adult, I occasionally stumble across a title I somehow missed during those years. Ms. 45 was just such a picture. Ms. 45 This movie tells … Continue reading Ms. 45 (1981) Review
In 2016, Gunfire Games released the RPG Chronos, which a lot of folks compared to titles like Dark Souls and The Legend of Zelda. While the game was generally well received, it had an extremely limited audience because it was a VR game on PC promoted by Oculus. So you had to VR to play it. Now the game has been overhauled and the VR … Continue reading Chronos: Before The Ashes Review
Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype released on PS3 all the way back in May 2010, and came to PS Vita in March 2015. Now it has made its way to PS4 (and via backwards compatability PS5) in the form of the Definitive Edition. If you played the 2010 hit, then you’ll probably like taking it for another spin. Already a game that looked good, this Definitive … Continue reading Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype Definitive Edition Review

There’s not much gameplay depth to ION LANDS narrative based adventure in a cyberpunk open world, but there’s a good story filled with conspiracy, hackers, and a rogue AI to unravel and explore to make up for it. Originally released in April 2020 for PC, the “neon-noir story in a rain-drenched cyberpunk metropolis” Cloudpunk has finally made its way to consoles and the end result … Continue reading Cloudpunk Review
It’s hard to believe it’s been so long, but the last NCAA Football game released all the way back on July 3, 2013 on PS3 and Xbox 360. New consoles would arrive a few months later, and now we’re a little over a month away from new consoles arriving again.

In 2007, I was doing most of my gaming on the Nintendo Wii, the original Xbox, and a low-end PC (mostly playing Black Hawk Down multiplayer). My brother built a gaming PC and it did run Crysis, although it didn’t run it on the highest setting (one below that). I played a little bit of Crysis on that PC when the game came out and … Continue reading Crysis Remastered Review

Reckoning was to be the introduction to the Kingdoms of Amalur, which would have … Continue reading Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning Review
