Silent Hill: Ascension - I Don't Know What I Expected
I'm choosing to believe that Silent Hill: Ascension is a metaphysical manifestation of every Silent Hill's worst fear: The franchise being turned into a tasteless, mediocre cash cow. Only we cannot pull out a rifle and shoot a boss representing our guilt to make it go away. Or drag the Silent Hill IP behind a shed and put a merciful buckshot between its eyes.

7 Things I DON'T Want to See in the 'Silent Hill 2' Remake
My opinions of Konami are lower than ever since the abominable release of Silent Hill: Ascension. Seriously, if your plan was to create a manifestation of an anti-capitalist gamer's worst fear, then mission fucking accomplished. You couldn't leave the IP alone, could you? Nope, you dug up its corpse, cut it up, and sold the pieces to whatever game developer would deal with you. I thought the Silent Hill brand being adapted to a fucking Pachinko machine was rock-bottom, but apparently you managed to dig through bedrock and survive Earth's molten core.

Grotesque, Gauche, Glorious; A Review of Krampus Kills. Top Story - December 2023.
I grew up playing video games from the '80s, which is unusual when you consider I was born in '93, but I have my uncle to thank for that. An OG game and tech guy, he had it all; stacks of gaming magazines, retro consoles, and the patience to introduce me to a hobby that still brings me joy.

Alone in the Dark 1992 - A Retro Horror Adventure
Introduction: Alone in the Dark 1992, unleashed upon the gaming world in 1992, is undeniably the grand patriarch of the survival horror genre. This seminal release not only captivated players with its atmospheric design and immersive narrative but also laid the foundation for iconic titles that would follow in its eerie footsteps later on. Nestled within the foreboding confines of the Derceto mansion in the heart of Louisiana, the game unfolds a gripping tale entwined with a very suspicious suicide, a haunting curse over the mansion, malevolent powers, and a sinister secret waiting to be unraveled.

Disturbing Video Game Bosses. Content Warning.
Video game bosses are usually depicted as bigger, meaner, and stronger versions of video game mooks. While they are made to look more scary, there are some that are so disturbing, it's nightmare inducing. However, when you've been a gamer for a long time, some bosses loss their disturbing factor and become interesting to observe.
