The Lack Of Mainline Mario Games On The Nintendo Switch Is Disappointing

The Nintendo Switch has a great library - I don't think anybody would argue against that. It has platformers, strategy games, adventure titles, and so much more. There's so much stuff to play for basically everyone. But what it doesn't have is enough mainline Mario games.

When Are We Getting A Resident Evil Outbreak 3?

Towards the end of the PlayStation 2's life cycle, Capcom released the once-underappreciated and now-forgotten gems that are Resident Evil Outbreak and Resident Evil Outbreak File 2. These are cooperative multiplayer Resident Evil games, set during the event of the Raccoon City Incident.

Hidden Gem: Whateverland

Although I usually love the idea of point-and-click games, I oftentimes end up pretty bored or craving more action, and no matter how good the story, it never seems to be enough to get me through the titles.

Shadows of Doubt

What's it called when you smoosh cyberpunk and noir together? Noirpunk? Whatever it's called, Shadows of Doubt pulls it off perfectly in this first-person open-world mystery game from developer ColePowered Games. Actually, the developer says \"sci-fi noir\", and I can see why they'd want to keep this game divorced from the term cyberpunk.

World's Worst Handyman

I will admit that I thought that World's Worst Handyman was a different sort of game to what it is. I imagined something like Surgeon Simulator; but what I got was something more akin to Moving Out mixed with Hello Neighbor. It was probably just me misreading the description, but I certainly wasn't disappointed.

Phobias affect nearly everyone, and that's okay! Whether you're afraid of bugs, arachnids, heights, flying, or more obscure things, these phobias can get in the way of your day-to-day life just as much as they might be a once-in-a-blue-moon occurrence.

Mato Anomalies

Futuristic neo-noir games like Mato Anomalies are quite common to see, ranging from Deus-Ex, to Katana Zero, to Blade Runner, but a mix between a visual novel, a turn-based RPG, and a deck-building card battler is more unique.

Dead Island 2
