Frog Legs Review - Short, Silly, and Surprising
- Thu, May 29th 2025Firstly, let me just say that Frog Legs is silly, short, and fun. It doesn’t take itself seriously, is meant to be completed in one play session, and is less than $3. As such, this review won’t be...

Fur and Fables - Early Access Review

Ever have a game come along that slips under your radar and ends up being one of the most fun games you’ve ever played? That’s what happened to me with Vampire Hunters; a game I recall seeing one trailer for and not hearing anything else until it was released and let me tell you something. Of all the FPS I’ve played, this one might be one of the best ones in a while.

I’m not the biggest fan of modern horror cinema. Sure, every so often, I watch one and I do enjoy it, like Tucker And Dale VS Evil and, surprisingly, Halloween Ends. But, most, if not all, of modern horror cinema I tend to avoid as I’m just not the biggest fan of how many horror films are going for the over the top gore and cheap, telegraphed jumpscares. In fact, I tend to gravitate towards classic horror and the more comedic ones, like Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. Same goes with horror games as I usually tend to gravitate towards games like the Resident Evil series or the 2017 version of Prey, a game which I will always defend and I feel is better then the 2006 original. Anyway, this is where the 2018 movie A Quiet Place comes into the picture. Now, I have never seen any of the films yet, but I do know of them and have seen various clips of them, so I do have a bit of knowledge of them. Yet, it was also one franchise I never thought a game adaptation could work and yet? Here we are with A Quiet Place: Road Ahead, a game that is quite surprisingly one of the better horror games I played in a while.

I remember way back when, waking up on christmas morning and finding out Santa had brought all of my siblings a Playstation 2. To our delight it was hooked up already and sitting there waiting for us was Dragon Ball Z: Budokai. We played it to death and as the series grew we could never keep ourselves away from the newest game. That never stopped and I’m happy to share my review of Dragonball Sparking! Zero, a continuation of the Dragonball Budokai series.

I have always loved inviting friends over to play silly platformer games like N++, Rayman Legends, Super Mario Bros. games, and the like. Of course, I also have played my fair share of mobile phone games. So a game like “Crossy Road Castle”, developed by Hipster Whale, piqued my interest quickly when I saw it was coming to consoles. I was able to get my hooves on a review copy, and I’ve spent quite a few hours exploring the procedurally-generated floors of the various castles with my wife in local couch co-op, and I’m relieved to say it didn’t let me (or her!) down!

I really enjoyed the first Starship Troopers movie, though I felt it was one of those movies that should’ve been a one and done deal. Sure, Starship Troopers 2: Hero Of The Federation was watchable, Starship Troopers 3: Marauder is probably the worst sequel I’ve seen in a long time, and the CGI films I heard are OK (I personally only seen Invasion and that was decent), but I still feel that the first film is probably the best movie. Still, movies aside, you’d think a movie like Starship Troopers would be prime real-estate for games, right? I’d thought that, too, but outside of two real time strategy games and a 2005 first person shooter, there really hasn’t been much in the way of video games for the series. Until recently with the release of Starship Troopers: Extermination; a game that, no joke, is a prime candidate for my Game Of The Year, even with a few issues I have with the title. Would you like to know more?
