I've been playing the PC-88 version that dropped last month, it's a fantastic game!!! Which makes it extremely disappointing that this version uses genAI, even in minor ways. Will not be buying it and neither should you.

resident evil requiem is releasing very soon! in the spirit of new resident evil (and rumors swirling over what the next remakes will look like), I just dropped my code veronica review on my site. while possibly accurately maligned, it elevates the adventure leanings of the og trilogy. link below!

Crazy Taxi was ported to Dreamcast 26 years ago (1/27/00)

One of Sega's greatest games, and an all-time classic, this Open-World Score-Attack Racing-Game, tasks player with quickly ferrying fares to their destination within a strict time limit, with risk/reward mechanics for weaving through traffic

I hope everyone's staying warm! the snow has been a bit of a dud over here so far, although maybe it will be prettier in the morning. luckily, I've finally gotten some time to work on my dialhex review! it's certainly not the best of the bit gen games, but it has its charms. link below!

Clenched a reverse sweep in Winners and somehow carried the resulting pit in my stomach through Grands, down to the wire with the 3-2...where we're at it's just a side bracket but fuck, there's no other game as exhilarating as this one 🐐

Junelice's review of Guwange | Backloggd
As of Master Chief day 1/17/2026, I do not yet have the 1CC in this game. I’ve come quite close, having taken a single credit to the last phase of the final boss. That probably sounds insanely frustra...

tonight I'm returning to everybody's golf with a review of the sixth mainline title, the lone vita game in the series (which eventually made its way to ps3 as well)! digging back on gamefaqs clued me in on its real nature: taut, cruel design for online sickos from the developer's apex. link below!

If you want a healthy alternative:
- Female protag (which has a PERSONALITY)
- Hack and Slash / Combo Action whatever
- Sick boss fights approved by the players
- Made in Korea
- No-Gen-AI is the development motto
