Before proceeding into yet another ramble-post: It's become equal parts surreal and genuinely scary with everything that has been going on not only here in the US, but all corners of the globe. I'm fortunate enough to have a job where I can work from home and can for the most part, go about my … Continue reading Weekend Gaming Review – Bells, Baseball & Brutality

I have done this several times before with games like the retro-inspired beat em up Coffee Crisis or the survival horror throwback Back in 1995 which … Continue reading 5 Cent Reviews – Preventive Strike

I still have a few Sega Genesis games that I've owned since childhood that I never finished(Dynamite Headdy, X-Men). To kick off my #MaybeInMarch goal, I recently finished Final … Continue reading #MaybeInMarch – Final Fantasy VII
It's show-and-tell time again! I had kind of a short weekend and didn't get to spend much time playing games, but got some time looking through a few stores and talking about games. I actually ventured outside and stopped by my local used game store to check out the selection as well as the nearby … Continue reading Weekend Gaming Review – February Pickups
It's been one year since I started my very own blog site on WordPress and this also marks my laziest 100th post! I don't really have anything special to commemorate the event, but wanted to say thank you to everyone for reading my weekly posts or giving even a passing interest in my nonsense. I'll also take … Continue reading One Year Anniversary!
Today's post is my meager contribution to the 2020 edition of Love Your Backlog Week.

Far too often, … Continue reading Love Your Backlog Week – 2020
