Virginia (2017)

Virginia started out as a game I wasn’t sure if I’d actually like or not. All I remember seeing was about 5 minutes of the game with the notion that it quick cuts randomly. When I picked it up it was on sale for less than a dollar

Deadpool (2013)

I always wanted to get this game when it came out, but after hearing rumors that it was pretty bad, I just decided to wait for the $5 price drop deal. Instead of that, Activision let the license lapse and it was delisted on Steam. So I figured I’d

Cuphead (2017)

Cuphead is a game that was shown for about 3 seconds in a montage of other games coming out at E3 years ago, out of that 3 seconds of footage, a collective gasp of excitement was claimed by everyone who saw it. It was one of the most unique looking

Road Redemption (2017)

Road Redemption had a rough time getting to 1.0 release, but when it did, it was… ok. Which is kinda a bad thing. The game that promised a spiritual successor to Road Rash was more like a cheap imitation than a true comeback. The level design is very bland

NieR: Automata (2017)

Nier is a game that I had zero interest playing, one that whenever it was brought up I couldn’t understand why everyone loved it so much. Everything everyone said sounded extremely negative, then followed up in the same sentence with “but I still like it”. This is exactly what

Tacoma (2017)

What a much better game than I expected it to be! I had a lot of fun with this game. More so than Fullbright’s last game “Gone Home”. Tacoma is filled with much more interesting human stories and just things to do. The story is captivating, if not a

Dead Rising 4 (2017)

Dead Rising 4 had a lot to live up to, since finally playing through DR3 earlier this year, I was really excited to play the 4th in the series. With the man who started it all, Frank West and the amazing Christmas time setting, I couldn’t have been more

The Beginner's Guide (2017)

At the outset of starting The Beginner’s Guide, I didn’t really know what to expect. I heard is a short 2 hour game that everyone NEEDS to play. I knew it was a short so I didn’t want to spend the $20 or so bucks on it

Rez Infinite (2017)

Rez feels like a game that should have been made in the 80’s and released along side TRON. The On-Rails shooting of the original game is still intact, but now in VR there is a bit more freedom with the camera and aim centered around VR and the movement

What Remains Of Edith Finch (2017)

What Remains Of Edith Finch is an interesting “walking Simulator” type of game, it has some really fun little pieces of storytelling, which are more enjoyable than the entire game is bad, but it just doesn’t seem to really stick with you after it is finished. It’s a

Danger Zone (2017)

Danger Zone starts out a bit too slow and doesn’t really ramp up till the end of it. This wouldn’t be a bad thing in and of itself, but it’s so short that you almost feel cheated when it does end. The Crash mode of the original

SuperHot VR (2017)

SuperHot already was an incredible game that was already too short, the VR version takes everything and ramps it up. And I mean EVERYTHING. It’s was more fun, but also way shorter too. Sadly this game is about an hour to an hour and a half if you really

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD (2012)

Once this game was being sold for $3, and being delisted on Steam, I decided to give it a shot. I’ve heard nothing but negative stuff about it for years, since it came out, but after I recently decided to replay the originals, I figured it wouldn’t be

Batman: Arkham VR (2017)

Hearing this was a short around 2 hour game, I wanted it, but at $20 it was a bit hard to purchase. Seeing as it was a timed Playstation VR exclusive from October 2016 to Spring 2017 sucked. I knew it was going to look better on Vive or Rift,

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (1999)

There are just some things in life that make a profound impact on someone’s life. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater landed at a time when I was just starting High School, and the summer before, I got a demo disk for the original Playstation that would kinda change parts

Vanquish (2009)

I’ve wanted to play this game forever, ever since it came out. I remember playing the first level and the dashing was really fun. The boss had a bit of Lost Planet vibe with shooting the glowing orange spots and the 3rd person run and gun felt like Gears

Scanner Sombre (2017)

I took a chance on this game after seeing one screenshot. I got it for about $3 after using a code and couldn't have been more pleased. The simple task of walking around a pure black cave with nothing but a scanner that “paints” the walls in a rainbow like

Super Mario Sunshine (2002)

The red headed stepchild of the Mario franchise. A game heralded by few as a great game or maybe even their favorite mario game in the series. This thought process has eluded me for years after only seeing it first hand a few times and hearing my best friend’s

Trials Of The Blood Dragon (2014)

This game could have been so much more. I LOVED the trials games, starting with Trials HD on 360, the return of an excitebike type of game with a newer coat of paint, it exhilarated me. I couldn’t be happier, a few years later when Trials Gold came out

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015)

I first saw this game in a behind closed doors session at E3 2014. Seeing what type of open world game they were going with was exciting and interesting. Going into this game with only a couple of hours of playing the second game back when it came out in
