We all know the two feelings that come after a boss battle. A tense and lengthy battle of tactics and effort can leave you feeling battered, yet somewhat exhilarated. Facing a tough, spam-happy opponent with multiple stages and no checkpoints can have you thinking seriously about tracking down the designers. By 1998 I had experienced both […]

[Spoilers ahead] This week’s episode opened with one of my favourite characters, Carol, as she picked out ingredients and cooked beet cookies for the Alexandrians. It’s a mark of her character and her terrifying nature that something as seemingly innocent as making cookies can make you feel so uneasy. She could just as easily be […]

Just a quick note before we proceed with the review, I think it best to make something clear, Project X Zone 2 is pure fan service.

I’ve been listening to a lot of acoustic tracks lately. Maybe it’s to de-stress from college, maybe it’s just because they’re relaxing and help me nod off to sleep or maybe they’re just a nice break from all the metal and punk I usually listen to. But whatever it is, I just can’t get enough […]
