The Importance of Finding Game Reviews and Coverage from Sources You Trust and Can Connect With

At a certain point in my life, I became incredibly picky about where I get my fighting game coverage and reviews from.

Don’t get me wrong. I love sites like IGN, Gamespot, Giant Bomb, and Kotaku for their ability to provide news and reviews first. I will go to them to get a sense of what a fighting game’s broader feature set is. I love independent bloggers for being able to provide their personal insight and touch in ways that more generalist sites cannot. Will turn to them for stories about how they had fun with the game or logs of their personal progress in a fighter.

But when it comes to looking for information that will help me inform my purchase on a fighting game, these outlets are not adequate with answering the hyper-specific questions I have about a game. My most recent quests for information pertaining to Samurai Shodown and Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid served as a reminder of that.

Let’s Play Paper Mario – Part 5

Surprise! I get stuck in Dry Dry Desert. By the end, I do get through it with a little help from the chat. But it gives us lots of time to talk about a host of topics, such as Captain Marvel, the MCU at large, Toronto Comicon, Breakout Con, the recent Nintendo Nindies Showcase, Google Stadia, and more! I close out the stream with an epic rant about all things related to making gaming content and the race for money and fame!

Anthem’s Tomb Challenges Are Not Great

 

For as much as I’ve enjoyed Anthem up to this point, mission design has not been its strong suit.

If the combat and flying wasn’t as great as it is, I may have dropped this game by now.

Having said all that, I’ve finally hit a point where the mission structure has changed. But now the game is worse?
