Baki Hanma Season 2 Anime Series Review

The final, multi-episode spanning fight between Baki and Yujiro also lived up to the hype and is one of the best in the series. ― I hate that there's a sexual assault scene in this season of Baki, and mad enough about it that this review is opening with my analysis of what's easily the worst part of the season. The second episode of this season opens with revived caveman Pickle sexually assaulting a ...

Popucom is Puyo Puyo Meets Splatoon

Sep 23, 11:25 games

The TGS Popucom demo was a super fun and silly vertical slice showing off all the basic mechanics that will be expanded upon in the full game. ― At Tokyo Game Show 2023, I was able to get some hands-on time with Popucom, the new game from the studio behind Arknights. However, rather than being another tower-defense mobile game, Popucom is a co-op 3D puzzle platformer inspired by games like Puyo Puyo,...

Persona 3 is my favorite of the Persona games but it's also the one I feel the least need to ever go back and play again. My issue can be summed up in one word: Tartarus. Tartarus is Persona 3's randomly generated ...

Macross: Shooting Insight Hands-On: A Solid SHMUP With Rocking Music

Sep 23, 08:25 games

The main thing that makes Macross: Shooting Insight special is the IP. ― Back in the mid-90s, I was a die-hard Robotech fan. It was one of the few anime airing on TV at the time and, in an era where it regularly cost $35 for two episodes of anime on VHS, it was awesome to have such a long, complex series to watch. Of course, as I grew older, I learned about both the original Macross anime and its var...

An intriguing story can't hide how appallingly poor The Teal Mask DLC runs on the Switch system. ― It has been almost a year since the release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
