Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Review

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)

The Modern Warfare brand has always been the most iconic one of the Call of Duty franchise. It’s the one that really put the franchise on the map and had every first-person shooter on the market follow in its footsteps. Now twelve years after the original was released, Infinity Ward has reimagined the series for the present day with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, a far more realistic and gritty game than they’ve made before. The game lives up to the legacy of its namesake for the most part, but ultimately doesn’t reach the same heights.

Kingdom Hearts III Review

KINGDOM HEARTS Ⅲ_20190129171215

Thirteen years. That’s a long time to wait for a game, but I managed to do just that and not lose my sanity waiting for Kingdom Hearts III. Now that it’s finally here, I can say with the utmost happiness that it was worth the thirteen year wait.

Sayonara Wild Hearts Review

Sayonara Wild Hearts

It’s rare for me to fall so in love with a game that the second I finish it, I start it over to do it all again. Sayonara Wild Hearts is one of those rare games to hit all the right notes that keeps me coming back for more.

Man of Medan Review

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan

Until Dawn was a hit when it released in 2015. Developer Supermassive Games delivered a fun and creepy ode to slasher movies that had great characters, a fun story, and incredibly meaningful choices for you to make all throughout. It’s definitely one of my favorite choice based narrative games. Naturally my expectations were pretty high for their true follow up, Man of Medan. While the game is good, it falls short of greatness in a number of ways.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season – Episode Four Review

Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season

Telltale’s The Walking Dead has been delivering the goods with its final season. The choices have been difficult, the characters and relationships have been interesting, and the story has consistently been compelling. Now the final episode has been released and Clementine’s story has come to a satisfying end.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season – Episode Three Review

Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season

Clementine’s story continues! The Walking Dead: The Final Season was in a state of limbo when Telltale Games closed last year. Things were saved though when Skybound Games stepped in and brought on some of the original developers to save the season and finish Clementine’s story. There was some worry that this change would cause the final episodes to suffer in comparison to the first two, but those worries have proven to be unfounded.

Just Cause 4 Review

Just Cause 4

The Just Cause franchise is one that I’m a big fan of. Being able to explore an island nation and cause wanton amounts of destruction, all while being a badass James Bond-esque character has been something that the series has generally excelled at. I jumped onto the franchise with Just Cause 2 which was one of my favorite games to play on the PS3. Just Cause 3 was a step down from its predecessor, but it still offered a good amount of fun with the introduction of the wing suit and some new ways to use your grapple tools. Does Just Cause 4 bring the series back to explosive glory?

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Review

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4

The Call of Duty franchise has been in a state of flux over the course of the past year. Last year’s WWII was meant to be the return to the series’ roots that the community had been clamoring for for years, but it ended up being simply good and not the great revamp that everyone was hoping it would be. On top of that, Fortnite has taken the world by storm with its battle royale mode, making it the most popular game in the world right now. In the past, you’d hear people always talking about Call of Duty and see friends lists filled with people playing the latest game in the franchise. It dominated YouTube in a way that no game before it did.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season – Episode 2 Review

Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season

Going into the second episode of The Walking Dead: The Final Season after the news broke that Telltale Games was closing down, throwing the future of the season into question was bittersweet. There’s the potential that things won’t get resolved, and even if the final two episodes do come out, who knows if they’ll be as good since the original team won’t be making them. If things are going to end here though after two episodes, things are ending on a strong note, albeit one that ends with a cliffhanger.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season – Episode 1 Review

Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season

This is it everyone. The beginning of the end of our journey with Clementine. It all started years ago with us playing the role of Clementine’s protector Lee, and now it’s all come full circle, with us filling the role of protector.
