*Heavy spoilers follow* It’s not hyperbole for someone to suggest that Final Fantasy VII is one of the greatest games ever created. Not only did the 1997 title display the new powers of 3-D animations and never-before-seen cut scenes, it pushed the boundaries of story-telling and gave us characters that we truly cared about. Whispers…

Update: According to Bloomberg News reporter Jason Schreier, Spider-Man: Miles Morales is not an expansion or a sequel. It is a brand-new, standalone game. Up until today, the only known facts about Sony’s next-gen console was it was unsurprisingly called “PlayStation 5”, had a white and black two-toned controller, and would surely put a dent…

The annual video game convention has come to an end with a plethora of exciting announcements and showcases, but not without an equal amount of disappointments. This year’s E3 was a bit different than previous ones, as Sony chose to sit out this time. It was interesting to see if others would capitalize off Sony’s…

*Disclaimer: This review was based off of completing the main missions, side missions, Control Points, and Black Tusk endgame activities. Dark Zone and PvP activities were not attempted during my playthrough.

Last year, I was finally introduced to Ubisoft’s popular series with Assassin’s Creed Origins. Although it did not connect with me as much as I’d hoped, I got a small taste of what all the fuss was about regarding Assassin’s Creed. This year, I decided to give the series another try with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey…

Recently, I was properly introduced to the wonderful world of Studio Ghibli (by my dentist, go figure). Movies such as Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, and Howl’s Moving Castle completely blew me away. Hayao Miyazaki’s films are charming, full of deep moving stories, and contain amazing character development. I wanted more from the worlds he…

As a kid, I’ve always wanted to perform a Kamehameha. I know, it’s impossible (*whispers* still holding out hope). One year, I even dressed up as Goku for Halloween. If you haven’t caught at what I’m getting at, it’s that Dragon Ball has had quite an impact on my growing up. Once I got into…
