Rogue Friday: Platformers

Platformers, oh how I adore you. From the 2D side-scrolling of the past, to full revolutionary 3D that came about in the 1990s there are so many classics that came about because of this genre, and I'm going to take this time to honor the ones I had the pleasure of playing growing up.

Srs Bsns: Supply and Demand

You know how when you get a new computer and it's pitched to you like this new revolutionary technology that's going to change your life forever and makes everything easier and then it breaks down and gives you a million and one problems? Games are kind of the same way. Imagine paying sixty bucks for a game bringing it home all excited to play it, and then it's buggy as all shit. There's lag, it's glitchy, and maybe even the damn thing is freezing on you. You just paid sixty bucks for this thing! It's brand new and it's not working properly! What the hell is going on!?

Xenogears

Hello and welcome to ToriJ's Video Game Reviews. We're into the second week of May and this time I'll be playing another well known title of Squaresoft back when they knew how to make video games. I'm not bitter.

Xenogears! The game stars Fei, a villager of Lahan suffering from amnesia. Yeah, I know, if you've played enough JRPGs in the past you've heard this story a million times. Bear with it, it's worth it. Everything is right as rain until mechs (called gears) attack the village and Fei is forced to leave Lahan behind to begin a new adventure.

Top Ten Racing Games

In honor of Rush 2 I decided to dedicate this time to discussing more about the genre. Today I'll be counting down the Top Ten Racing Games of all time! Or more accurately the Top Ten Racing Games out of all the ones I've played, but that doesn't get nearly as many hits, does it? So, buckle up and get ready for a wild ride!

A Child's First Console

You can rent, you can borrow, you can even steal (I'd advise against it), but nothing beats having something that is truly yours. Something where you decide when to use it, how to use it, and when to loan it out. Something you earned with your own hard earned money, or your mother bought it for you as a gift, whatever works, and something that will always be yours in one way or another. I am here today to talk about A Child's First Console.
