Crossed Swords Comes Home
June 06, 2019 18:04One month ago I bought the last of the games I wanted from my wish list that are available at retail. They are Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Yakuza Kiwami 2.

Celebrating The Early Days of SNK
May 02, 2019 10:51I got some new movies and video games to share with you all. I don’t have a whole lot of either on my wish list these days. It’s been a combination of having most of what I’ve wanted since I started collecting in 2004 and a lack of time to play what I already have. […]

Now Playing: March 2019
March 24, 2019 20:15Since November I played and completed Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst, which was good, but it wasn’t the amazing experience I remember the original game being. I feel it side loaded a linear game into an open world style that it never needed. I also played and beat Call of Duty: Black Ops. Oh what a mess […]

SF AE & More
December 12, 2018 02:36Since my Super Nintendo King of Dragons purchase in September, I ended up getting Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition in that time.

Now Playing: November 2018
December 04, 2018 19:14So what have I been up to as far as video gaming is concerned in the month of November? Why is was Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst, of course.

PC Showdown
June 20, 2018 21:04Back in 2016 I became interested in seeing two Jean-Claude Van Damme films that I’d never watched before. One was the original Universal Soldier and the other was Sudden Death.
