It’s been way too long since I wrote anything. I’m supposed to be doing two posts a week, and yet I haven’t posted anything since my Donkey Kong Bananza review. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been playing anything though. So, I thought that before I jump back into updating the blog regularly, I would do a post with some quick thoughts on games I’ve played in the downtime.

Bethesda has had one great press conference and a couple less than stellar ones. Unfortunately, this year continues that trend. There certainly were some big things, but I often found myself glancing at my phone. But, let’s talk about it. What were those couple things that I really enjoyed and what could have been better?

It’s probably pretty different from most of the lists you’ve seen on other sites. Continue reading

It was just kind of, “I don’t know, how about just Star Fox 64 again?” Doom is in a very similar situation. Despite being one of the earliest and most fondly remembered first person shooters, the original Doom doesn’t really resemble a modern game in the slightest.
