The console is more than ten years dead now and since a cult hit like Phantom Dust can get a remaster, […]

Eight to Consider: Games of E3 2016

This year’s E3 has come and gone. After sifting through hours and hours of content, I’ve decided to talk about some of the games that caught my eye.  Of course, I didn’t actually attend E3, so I haven’t played any of these titles.  All of my opinions are based solely on gameplay videos, trailers, and […]

Phantom Dust? Not Quite Dead Yet.

Remember how at E3 2014 Microsoft went on about how the original Xbox cult classic, Phantom Dust, was getting remade for the Xbox One? Yeah, that’s probably not happening now.
