Metroid Samus Returns Review. Top Story - November 2021.
Context is everything, it can make a victory seem more like a defeat and a loss can be softened in time. 2017 was a stellar year for gaming. Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey and Hollow Knight released along with several other incredible titles. Zelda and Mario both got seminal titles that pushed their franchises in all new directions and the little Indie studio Team Cherry produced what is to some the best 2d adventure Metroidvania of all time. But in the midst of all these incredible releases Metroid Samus Returns came out for the aging 3DS platform. I personally did not pick up the game till 2018, and playing it I had a lot of fun, but I was also a little disappointed. Not because of Hollow Knight per se, but because of another smaller release.

NHL 08 Review
8 out of 10 A collection of old features repackaged and transmuted into a nice firm serving of NHL hockey. The motion control routine was never as fun as it made out to be. The highlight of motion control in NHL 08 was the ability to take a player into the bench and, in simple words, slam stomp on his head. That's as far as the motion control went. The rest of the game played just fine, thank you very much.

Metroid 5 Review
It is not an understatement to say that despite being overshadowed by Mario and Link, Samus and her adventures have had an enormous impact on the gaming space. Particularly in the indie developed renaissance we are currently experiencing. It has never been a better time to be a Metroidvania fan. But in a market saturated with excellent examples of the genre, can the progenitor of the style still compete? Can a game with fifteen years of expectation live up to the hype? I have to admit that as October approached I was pretty nervous, maybe even dreading that Metroid 5 would not live up to the impossibly high expectations I had put upon it.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Review
If you’re like me and grew up playing video games throughout the early 2010’s, you’ll probably remember when games had no microtransactions, no DLC, and often even no side missions or other bonus content. Just a single, straightforward adventure from start to finish. While extra stuff is still usually fun and some games do get DLC right, I’ll always welcome any game that brings back that old formula. Eidos-Montréal has done just this with Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, a fun, action-packed story with elements of choose-your-own-adventure and not a single microtransaction in sight. You play as Peter Quill, a.k.a Star Lord, the captain of a motley crew that includes Gamora, Drax, Rocket & Groot. If you’ve watched any Marvel movies lately, this will all sound familiar, but trust me - this particular version of the team is very different to their film counterparts. Even if you’re a stranger to the Marvel universe, this game is definitely an excellent introduction, and I’d recommend it to anyone.
