All articlesThe way Splatoon 2 handles abilities is driving me insane
Aug 6, 2017
I like Splatoon 2. I think it's a fun concept and something no other game on the market is doing (well, aside from Splatoon 1). I mostly play ranked mode because I find those objectives more interesting than Turf Wars, but the main mode is pretty decent as well and the new Salmon Run mode is a lot of fun. Unfortunately every other aspect of this game drives me up the wall. I like the way my squ...
Managing the fanbase when your franchise is on hiatus
Aug 20, 2016
Recently the publishers of two of my favorite franchises have caused a lot of anger among their fanbases, those two franchises being Metroid and Metal Gear . Whether the anger is righteous or not, both companies have made some decisions that almost anyone who cares about either property could have told you wouldn't go over well, and there's one common factor between the two. I wish I could forg...
Why Are We Still Here? Just to Suffer? Coming to Terms with a Post-Metal Gear World
Oct 16, 2015
Even though I finally stopped playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain over a week ago, I still haven't really been able to stop thinking about both the game itself and the franchise as a whole.

Metal Gear Scanlon: The Twin Playthroughs - Part 01
Aug 30, 2014
Watching Drew play through the original Metal Gear Solid has given me the itch to play through one of the Metal Gear games again, but having just played through the entire series (from the MSX games all the through Peace Walker) back when The Legacy Collection came out, I decided I'd instead go through a game I haven't played in years: Metal Gear Solid - The Twin Snakes.
