(Note, this is long…. like, rally long…. 5000 words long….) Hogwarts Legacy is a game with a lot of controversy surrounding it. I’ll probably mention it a bit, but I really don’t plan to delve too deep into the topic, if I did it would be part of a separate, larger post. Well, the main controversy involving Rowling’s stupidity online, among other things. The other, less critical controversies around the game itself I’ll get a bit more into. I also want to put out two things, up front. One, I […]
Review – Soul Blazer (SNES)
On a bit of a whim, I decided to pick up and play through Soul Blazer for the SNES.

That’s why I picked up Rodimus, sort of. Unlike Perceptor or the Incecticons, I wasn’t interested in him at 40 dollars. But for 8 bucks, I […]
